A FEW SUGGESTIONS TO
BEAR LAKE REPUBLICANS
First, They Should go to the Polls Next Tuesday
and Vote for the Bonds; Second, They Should
Vote for Certain North Idaho Candidates.

The voters of Bear Lake County
have two important duties to per-
form next Tuesday. One is the
selection of men who are to repre-
sent the respective political parties
in the contest at the November elec-
ton. The other duty is that of
voting on the question as to whether
or not the Commissioners of Bear
Lake County shall be authorized to
issue bonds in the amount of $50, 900 |
for the purpose of constructing a |
state highway thru the county.
This question has been so thorough
ly explained to voters thru previous
issues Of the press of this county
and by the speakers who have held
meetings in the various precincts,
thst we feel it is not necessary to
say more regarding it at this time,
except to urge upon every man or
woman in the county, who is quail
fed to vote, to go to the polls next
Tuesday and record their votes in
favor of the bonds. Let US show to
the people of the state that Bear
Lake County is practically unan-
imous in favor Of building good
roads.
In the nomination candidates for
the various state and county offices,
the voters have list Of good men
from which to make their selections.
In the republican and democratic
parties, interest is centered in the
nominations for United States sena-
tor and governor.
The Examiner, of course, is partl-
cularly interested in the selection
of candidates on the republican
ticket, and while we would like tc
see certain men nominated, We
haven't word to say against any
other man who is seeking a nomina
ton on the state or county ticket

which exist in Idaho; that is, tn

essential that all sections OF Il
state should be represented on Il

highly important that the repub
cans of Bear Lake County shou
vote for some of the candidates W
hail from the north.
