ing every saloon in the state, and
in the meantime enforcing the
present local option law strictly.
Hawley, the democratic candidate,
advocates a wide-open policy, not
local option. as he opposed this at
the election last year He believes
in personal liberty with no restric-
tiuns. While he was mayor of
Boise saloons and gambling houses
fourished, and when a constable
attempted to destroy some gam
bling devices the mayor entered'a
vigorous protest. Men and women
of Meridian, take your choice be-
tween the two men, when you vote
next Tuesday.
Edward F. Crawford is the only
republican candidate from this
part of the county, and is entitled
to a good vote for this reason if
for no other. But in addition to
this, he is a competent man to
elect as county commissioner. He
was elected before and did more
for the country roads than had
been done by previous officials.
He lives in the country and knows
the needs of the people. He is a
good business man and pays his
debts. He looks after his own
business in a satisfactory way
and therefore can be trusted witn
the county's business. Vote for
Ed Crawford.
Stephen Utter was among the
delegation at Meridian Tuesday
evening from Boise. Mr., Utter
was among the speakers at the
rally, and in his remarks he prom
ised that if elected he would en-
deavor to serve the people impair
TALLY and would attend strictly to
his duties. Mr.. Utter said he ap-
preciated the good support from
Meridian. He will be elected
county auditor by a handsome
majority for the reason that he is
the right man for the place, and
has a record in the court house
that he can point to with pride.
Hon. William Jennings Bryan,
the greatest statesman in America,
and the man who is nearest the
ideal citizen, will not vote for the
democratic candidate for governor
of Nebraska next Tuesday. t e
candidate is pronounced liquor
man; and Bryan will not help him
into power even if he is demo
/ crat. The same proposition is ur
to the democratic voters in Idaho
} and we believe they are too pa
triotic to vote for Hawley, as he il
as much of liquor man as Dahl
) man, of Nebraska.
Those who expect a cargo o
/ beer to be shipped to Meridlal
s next Wednesday to celebrate tn.
i election of James Fl. Hawley will
}. be disappointed. The people o
). the state will not elect the wet
o attorney of Boise governor, al
i though he may get a fair size
d vote in his home city. But Brad
r will probably carry Boise, an
}, even if he does not, the outsld
" vote will more than Offset Hawley'
S lead there.
y Don't forget to give a vote t
e Hon. Burton L. French whe
/. marking your ballot next Tues
dav. This is the most importari
=. n position in the gift of the peopl
Il at this election, and we want sue
"a a man as French to represent I

straightforward citizen, and ais
one Who sympathizes with the PR

to the republican party.
