Vote For Crawford.

There is no reason why Ed
Crawford should not receive the
votes of the Meridian country for
county commissioner. We are ask
ed to vote for one of two Boise
residents, instead. Mr.. Briggs is
in business in a Boise lumber
yard, although living in fine
suburban mansion out on the car
line. He is an old man and wants
no improvement that will help
build up our country if it will cost
anything, as he will not receive
the benefit from it. Thompson,
the other candidate, is another
Boise suburbanite, who is not we'll
known and who has none of the
qualifications of Crawford. ed
Crawford is a Meridian man, home
steaded piece Of land, and knows
the county. He is criticized. as he
is chairman of the board, and the
responsible head Of the county
government. He has made good
record and should be reelected.
The Meridian times. (Meridian, Idaho) 1909-1938, 1912-07-26

The report is being circulated
over al Eagle and Star, that the
macadam road near the fair grounds
is failure and that it cost SEC, 900.
This is wilful prevarication, and
the man. who expects to be elected
county commissioner by circulat-
ing such a statement will some
day have reckoning. The records
show that this road cost $4,000 a
mile,and being the first was largely
experimental. Other amounts
were spent for valuable road ma
chinery, which the county now
owns and which will be good for
use for many years. The two miles
of this macadam road is in fine
condition and it is a pleasure to
drive over it. A small piece, about
the length of a city block, was put
in too late and it was Clipped, but
this can be repaired at small ex-
pense.

ated and elected he will only adj
vocate and approve such measures
as are for the best interests of the
people. He believes that the
paramount issue before the next
State Legislature is the reelection
of Senator Borah.
The principles Mr.. Snnderlin
represents are: fair and equitable
administration of present revenue
laws: any amendments to present
revenue laws necessary to effect an
equality in taxation; minute sup
ervision of state appropriations,
and rigid economy in public ex-
penditures; faithful carrying out
of the verdict of the people reIa-
tive to amending Constitution to
provide for Initiative and Refer
endum; enactment of an employ
ers' Liability Act to adequately
provide compensation to employees
injured in hazardous employ
ments; enactment of any other re-
medal laws that may be reason
ably necessary.

COMMISSION CONSIDERS
SITES FOR VERONA PARK.

Declaring that they had introduced a
bill in the Legislature providing for
an appropriation of 500, 900 for the
proposed Verona Lake Park, a delega-
ton of citizens appeared before the
Essex County Park Commissioners
yesterday afternoon to forward the
plan. Representatives of Verona,
Montclair and Bloomfield were pres
emit.
Several blue-prints of maps showing
the site proposed for the park were
produced. Twenty owners of property
along the lake were designated and
the size of the tract owned by each.
Altogether the area recommended Is 51.S
acres, of which the Verona Lake Park
Association owns twenty-five acres.
1t was argued that the county had
placed several institutions In the To-
cality which did not add to its favor,
and there should be little hesitation
in making the improvement by con-
verting the land into a county park.
The commissioners have the matter
under consideration.

RESIDENTS MUST PAY
FOR THEIR ANTI=TOXIN.

The Belleville Board of Health last
night went on record in opposition to
paying for any more anti-toxin that is
used by residents of the. town. Secre-
tary John II. Coeyman was instructed
to communicate with the physicians in
the town and notify them that here
after the town will not pay any bills
for anti-toxin.
The matter was spoken of by Presi-
dent Herbert b. Vail, of the board. He
said that the town health board does
not pay for cough medicines or any
other drugs used and hat he saw no
eason why it should bear the cost of
the anti-toxin. There was a general
discussion and the members agreed
that the practise should be disconz
tinued. Secretary Coeyman will also
notify the Newark laboratory of the
action. Belleville last year paid Sill

Ing It from time to time until 1t is too
late for the 20" to arrange for special
service. The lateness Of the mail in
to Keokuk is not the fault Of the Bur

those who are familiar with the case.
But the loss to Keokuk continues and
some arrangement should be reached
whereby the delay could be overcome.
There seems to be but one way to
meet the case and that issto start the
K. & w, train that leaves Keokuk at
$40 a. m. from Burlington at an hour
that would bring the Chicago mail
into this city. BY such an arrange

the departing terminal would ne Bur

is possible that such an arrangement
will be made. It would certainly b.
appreciated by the business men Of
