Abstract
Abstract: The following article summarizes several discursive productions of the US hobo in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries in order to expose the role the hobo played historically in the making of idyllic American manhood. After the crash of the railroad boom in 1873, the hobo was produced as other to dominant ideals of masculinity that were based in a stable work ethic. Deemed a “tramp” who refused to work, the hobo became a site for medical investigations that highlighted his lack of reason, feminizing the male hobo-tramp and buttressing ideals of both bourgeois and working-class masculinities in the process. Self-identified hobos worked to counter such discourses, but in doing so, also employed exclusionary tactics to distance women, tramps, and men of colour from definitions of hobo masculinity, revealing that white masculinity represented a possession in need of protection, regardless of class.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
