For Ed Crawford.

E. E. Crawford asks for the
nomination for county commits
sioner again from the republican
voters at the primaries to be held
July Both. AS far as geograph-
ical location is concerned, Mr.
Crawford has the advantage of the
other two candidates for the same
Office, William Briggs and Foster
Thompson. Both of these men
live close to Boise and their int
erests are identified with the
capital city. 1t is not wise to
select three Boise men for county
commissioners and the only way
to avert this is to vote for Mr..
Crawford, who is farmer, resid-
ing very near the center of the
commissioners district. Certain
interests have taken occasion to
absolutely ignore any candidate
living within five miles of Mer-
idian, the center of the most pop
ulous farming community in the
county. This tax league" has
endorsed for county commissioner
one William Briggs, an old man
residing near Boise. who has long
ago retired from active business
life and is spending his declining
days in a beautiful suburban
home. He is vice-president of a
Boise bank and has the money
necessary for the campaign But
the Times believes that for COM
missioner we should have a man
from this section of the county,
as the third district is supposed
to represent the rural population.
Also weshould have a middle aged,
vigorous man for the position, one
who is able to meet the physical
and mental requirements.
The Times has not supported
Mr.. Crawford in all his acts while
on the board, but always held that
his intentions were honest and
that he has endeavored to work
for the best interests of the people.
During the past two years the tax
matters have not only been trial
to the people of the county but a
problem to the commissioners.
During the tangle over the cash
valuation, no set of officers could
have carried on a policy that
would have satisfied all the tax
payers. Mr.. Crawford states that
he held out for a horizontal cut
for the farm valuations only but
was out-voted. He also claims that
his vote was for the macadam
road work this spring to be done
on the bench and not on the val
ley road.

G TATlsTicS on public road mileage in the United
- States. compiled by the Office Of Public Roads
Of the Department of Agriculture show Delaware to be
in ptabe plight with respect to good roads. The
total mileage Of public roads of all sorts in State
in 1904 was 5000 and there had been no increase or
decrease in that mileage IN 1909 Passing to the to-
tai improved mileage in State, we find that in
1904 We had only 66 miles of good roads while in
1909 that mileage had increased to 16644 In other
words in 1904 only 22 per cent Of Delaware roads was
represented by improved roads while in 1903 that per-
centage only had increased to 6.22 per cent
That is better than the showing made by some Of
the States but it is disgraceful when compared with
4914 per Of good roads in little Rhode island
40 per cent in Massachusetts, $3.50 per cent in In
diana; 2713 per cent. in Ohio, and 24OS per cent in
Connecticut Delaware taxpayers, chiefly the farm
ers have poured millions of dollars into the public
treasury in the shape Of road taxes, and there has
been such gross waste and acknowledgement of those
funds that today in all three counties all they have
to show the way Of good roads IN return for that
vast expenditure is 1854 miles of good roads out of
a total public road mileage Of 1000
Such a showing is enough to an upheaval in
the rural sections of State We wonder if Della
ware farmers, who have such large pecuniary and
other interests tied up in the good roads movement
ever will awaken to realization of the gross injustice
they have suffered and still suffering from shame

IhOIEcIS WATER KATE tHANOE.
Editor of THE EVENING JOURNAL.
Sir: Allow me as subscriber,
space in your paper to touch upon a
subject that is vital to us all. ! refer
to the proposed action of our Water
Department to raise water rates, for
that is what it is intended to do, not
withstanding all the array of figul es
that the department is kind enough
TO hand out Are we again to be held
up, as we recently. were by the loss
of our strip tickets, and this time by
municipal ownership? Their claim
is that they are doing it to save un-
necessary waste of water and for
this they are to be commended; but,
charity begins at home. They paid
$4,000 for a stable and $4,000 or
more for an Office, an unnecessary
waste mot water)
Ii is not to be denied that some Of
our previous Water Departments had
as much gray matter in their cram
iums as our present department I
think it was In William Il. Porter's
time that our present meter system
was brought about After careful
consideration a price of $40 year
was decided upon and the consumer
was allowed 300 gallons a day This
was considered fair to both the user
and the department and / have never
heard any complaint. The Water De-
partment has always turned in a sur
plus to the city and if any change is
to be made we should get water at
cost and not be compelled to pay a
profit
Another thing: The new Porter re-
servoir, which was recently built, was
put there with the understanding that
it would take care of our demands for
years to come, with all allowance
made for waste and the growth of the
city. For whom are they going to
save this water and what are they
going to do with it after they save
it? Are they going to dam it up or
perhaps bottle it and keep it until
next year or the year after? Plenty
of water runs down the Brandywine
every day and goes out the race and
on into the Delaware. Why not save
this useless waste and not put us In
such a position that we will be
afraid to allow the water to run at
the spigot for a while in summer in
order to get a cool fresh drink, or to
be afraid to water our flowers or
grass or take an extra bath without
feeling that we had to pay extra for
1t or that we were extravagant
If there is anything that is neces-
sary to good health other than fresh
air it is plenty of good, fresh water
for our Maker tells us that cleanli-
ness is next to Goodness and We
should have. it in abundance. No one
is kicking about present rates, which
I consider fair, except the Water De-
partment and as there is no cause for
alarm at present or the near future,
Of a water famine, I think, it would
be we'll to drop this matter until
some future time when occasion de-
mands it.
