The Bingham County Civic league
after having road matters under con
sideration for over year and afte
considering the various kinds o
froads and road materials in Bing
ham county, has centered it's atten
tiOn on certain work to be done II
the manner and in the order nance
in the following paragraphs:
On the lines or sections of road
where the travel is heaviest it pro
poses building hard surface road
capable of carrying the heavy traf
fic. Gravel roads or roads crowned
with gravel having been tried
in other counties and having
broken down under heavy traf
fic, the league does not care
to i expend money for crown
ing our roads, where the same results
are likely to follow. 1t proposes tc
make some from of concrete road
and by concrete they mean a water.
bound or tarvia-bound or asphaltum.
bound or bitulithic road composed Of
rock and binder of some kind. They
do not mean that it must necessarily
be rock bound by cement. Those
matters are left open to be settled
by persons who are competent to
make intelligent settlement of it
after considering all the materials
available and which are cheapest for
this locality
The sections of road they consider
most in need of attention are the
places where the travel of different
roads convergs, such as
1. The road in Blackfoot between
Bridge street at the end of the pave
ment and Oborn's store at Snake
river bridge.
2. North Main street, Blackfoot to
a point above the sugar factory.
8. South Broadway, Blackfoot, to
the Blackfoot river.
4. Main street, Shelley, a mile
north and mile south.
5. Main street, Aberdeen, a mile
above and mile below.
6. From the sugar factory spur
above Blackfoot to the, Porterville
bridge.
Z. About a mile Of road at Sterl-
ing connecting with the road to
Aberdeen. s.
8. Part of the low lands between
Kimball and Firth and strip above
Firth, where it is sandy.
Petitions have been circulated ask
ing for treatment of the parts shown
in 1, 2, 8, and 4, and they have been
signed by some 1900 people.
The people of Rose propose add
ing number five to the undertaking.
Parties at Sterling propose adding
six.
People in various places propose
fixing the weak places in the road
north of Kimball, and near Firth.
Part of the road on the Kimball-
Firth line is a black soil that becomes
soft and muddy in wet weather, and
it is claimed that gravel rolled into
it would make it wear like certain
sections along the same line, where
there is a sprinkling of gravel. The

JUDGE BUDGE REQUESTS

Judge Alfred Bulge, chief justice
of the supreme court, requests that
you place a cross after his name,
Notwithstanding the fact that he has
no opponent. He wishes to express
his appreciation of the honor already
conferred on him and the fact that
nobody is in the race against him,
but it will not be q full measure Of
the peoples wishes if he is merely
elected by default.
Judge Bulge is a conspicuous ex-
ample of an upright Judge who has
attended to duty thru all the years,
and left his case in the hands of the
people and If that is the kind Of
judges the people want, it would be
a fine courtsey and plain duty for
them to make an X by his name to
show their decision,
