The candidacy of Jere w. Robinson
for Mayor is meeting with growing
favor and his election is not only
claimed by his friends but is being
conceded by close observers among all
classes. Mr.. Robinson has been a
resident of Boise for twenty-five years
and is prominent i'll business circles,
no man standing higher in the COM
munity for integrity. ability and those
sterling qualities which 60 TO make a
man among men. 1t is doubtful if
there is better qualified man in Boise
for the position of Mayor as he has
been close and constant student
of municipal affairs. Mr.. Robinson's
high standing throughout the entire
intermountain region is attested by
the fact that when il was thought there
would be a change in the position of
director of the mint, he was recon-
mended to President Wilson by prac-
tically every Senator from the Far
West. Mr. Robinson would take the
stand, as Mayor, that home labor and
contractors should always be favored
IN all city work. A vote for Robinson
VIII be a vote for safe, efficient,
progressive Mayor, who will be con-
etpnfiu IN fha al.
