MR. ELi'S CLASSIC BREAK

Ely's statement is open to de-
bate. There is that time when
Mcdonald was assessor of Lin
coin county and the county was
forced to sue him for money due
and which Assessor Mcdonald
neglected to turn in. The county
got judgment and an execution
and collected the money. II had
TO go to law TO do it. OF course

GOOD ROADS MEET
MEN IN SUPPORT OF BETTER
HIGHWAYS To MEET TUES
DAY AT CLUB.

With a view to Fastening the COM
%mencement of the improving of the
road between the city and Lake Mad
ison, a meeting of the joint good
roads committee today was called for
next Tuesday. The conference will
be held in the Commercial club at 8
o'clock in the evening.
Much business is to be taken up
at the meeting. ~Furtherance of the
plans for good roads day, when city
men and country men are expected to
join forces in improving the Meridian
road through Lake county, is one of
the objects of the meeting. Foremen
and the sub-foremen, who will be in
charge of their respective miles of
Meridian road improving, have en-
tered fundamentally into the spirit
of the occasion. and present indica-
lions are that several thousands of
dollars worth of work will be done
to the highway on good roads day.
A concerted effort will be made to
overcome any obstacles that may
arise to longer delay the starting of
work on the Lake Madison road.
Twelve hundred and seventy-five
dollars was raised by popular sub
scription in the city, to assist in the
work. The county commissioners
agreed to appropriate $1,000, under
certain conditions and the Lake View
township trustees generously agreed
to give $500, in addition to grading
the highway. 1t is said now that it
may be impossible for Lake View
township to contribute the full sum
stipulated.
Members Of the good roads COM
mittee and supporters of the better
highways" movement are hopeful
that work OF the Lake Madison road
will be started nex week, and that
there will be a general turnout on
good roads day, June 8.

Open Meeting
COMMISSIONERS ASK PROPERTY
OWNERS TO DECIDE ON Paw
ING AND STORM SEWER.

1t is requested by the city COM
missioners that all owners of prop
erty on that part of Egan avenue
which is to be paved, meet with the
city commission in the council cham
Der neX Monday night.
The meeting is called to discuss
the kind of paving to be used and
the matter of installing a storm
along the n 1t is con
tended that the constructing of a
storm sewer would not only be a
saving to property owners, but that
it would be next to impossible to
drain surface water from the avenue
after it is paved if the sewer Is not
installed. City Engineer G. A. Trim
mer has estimated that to put in a
storm sewer would not cost more
than $50 for a 25-foot lot.
The matter of installing lead wa
terworks connections on Egan ave
nue will also probably be up for con
sideration. Commissioner T.. A.
Johnson said ii is possible that lead
connections may not be insisted up
on. He said that it is the intention
to increase the size of connections
from three-quarters of an inch to one
inch, and that iron pipe here has
been in service more than twenty
years without rusting through.
The commissioner told that many
persons are of the opinion that lead
pipe will corrode about as quickly
as win iron pipe.

ENTER Home STRETCH
NEW EST STYLE IN ELECTION
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. ELEC-
TION THREE DAYS DISTANT.

With the county and state pri-
maries only three days, candidates
and their henchmen are executing
rapid and deXterous neu to
eliminate their opponents from the
race for office at the semi-final cleo
ton contest e Tuesday.
Workers in all state political fac
lions are pretty generally agreed that
the campaign. for the most part, has
been a clean one. There has been a
comparatively small amount of the
time honored "whirlwind" methods
of vote getting evidenced, and only in
isolated instances has m~uckracking,
once thought no important to the old
line, dyed-in-the-wool politician,
come into glaring prominence. To a
considerable extent, candidates
seemed to have assumed that the
voter of today is an intelligent one,
who is neither to be subdued or yet
TO be sent into paroXysms of exuber-
ance by a burst of ''table-pounding"
qratory, even when the rhetorical eff
forts are backed up by unsupported
accusations.
Three i'm a Row.
Residents of Lake county have
been favored with an excellent OPP
portunity to form their opinions Of
the candidates for the office that will
be vacated next fall by Gov. Frank
Nj, Byrne. All three republican as
pirants for gubernatorial honors
have spoken in Madison during the
past week.
And the parrying of the republi-
can candidates for the governorship,
office to speak here, were less We
hement than usual in spite of the fact
that the three men have given I'M
mistakable evidence that in the pri-
mary result lies their political fate.
1t has been rarely during the pres
ent generation that democratic con
tenders for purely state offices have
been dangerous factors.
Work for County offices.
For county offices, Lake county
has uncovered a wealth of good ma
%terial, and for some positions the
rivalry is spirited. There being
eight aspirants for the office of coun-
ty superintendent of schools, six re-
publicans, one DEMOCRAT and n So
c%ialist. there is much speculation of
opinion as to who will be returned
the victor. The fact that seven of
the candidates for the superintend-
ency are women has been the basis
of much comment in outside newspa-
ers.
None of the candidates for county
office have held public meetings. al
though many of those who are of the
opinion that they have a hard race
to run have worked ceaselessly dur
ing the last couple of weeks among
individual voters.
Much Literature.
To a large extent, printed matter
has displaced oratory in the cam
paign. 1t is said that considerably
more newspaper advertising, pam
phlets and personal cards have been
provided the electors this year than
ordinarily.
Local candidates this year bent
their efforts to get electors register
ed, with the result that the registra-
ton in Lake county this year was
the largest in the history of the
county.
