TO the voters of the Town Of Bingham
Ladies and Gentlemen:-I am as
founded to know that a man would
! candidate for road commissioner in
such a manner as the gentleman who
put the information in the Bingham
/ columns last week with the eXpecta-
ion of accomplishing anything. How
! ever. before | was elected | was in
Nformed by several business men of the
! town that they were going to try and
| elect ne altho | had never given 1t
| thought and in the meeting of that
year was elected by vote of two to
one and the previous year by ballot
cast from the chair as there wasn't
any opposition whatsoever.
If | couldn't get the position as
road commissioner without a1vertis-
ing what | had done. | would go to
! Mexico and crawl into some cave out
of sight. 1t probably may be pity
to pay out so much and not get moth
| ing done as | have been accused Of
but is was nevertheless accepted by
our commissioner
OF course If the citizens OF Bingham
can be informed thru advertisement
| that the country lanes can be changed
| to boulevard with the same amount
of money, of course | don't blame
| them for voting in man OF such
| skill.
We know the main road was quiteI
rough last summer but we must un-
! derstand that due to the enormous
! amount of motor cars and heavy
! trucks that tarveled. that the surface
/ was simply worn out. One could
/ find poor roads in other places be-
! sides this town.
J have been accused by some one
of having seven horses and large
crew of men planking the bridge
above the II. b. Whipple place. This
is not so; | had three men beside
myself and pair OF horses under
/ pay The plank was hauled and the
bridge was covered in half day
There has been two thousand one
! hundred seventy-three dollars ana
sixteen cents worth Of plank distri-
buted throughout the town for GOV,
ering brldger. have built one large
one over Fall Brook the other over
Johnson besides several others.
| hope the citizens of Bingham will
recall the care that was taken in
cleaning up the streets and school
Yards in the early spring.
Owing to my illness | will not be
able to attend the meeting but Will
bc "A candidate for road commissioner
on the sixth day of March.
Thanking you all. | remain,

The Fletcher Savings and Trust Com
pany, as trustee under the will Of Charles

BRITAIN HOLDS
UP ACTION ON
IRISH MEASURE
Awaits Result of Election Be-
fore Passage of Free
State Bill.
FEARS REPUTATION

LONDON, Feb 25.-The British gov
eminent plans to delay final passage Of
the bill finally constituting the Irish free
state until after the Irish election, it was
learned in Downing street today. The
bill already has passed in the House on
first and second readings.
1t was pointed out if the Republicans
win the election, the present bin prob
ably will be useless as the Republicans
are opposed to it. With EanOnn De
Valera back in power in Ireland it would
be necessary for the British cabinet to
open new negotiations entirely, in the
opinion of British officials.
Events in ireland in the last week make
Britain unwilling to put the Irish free
state bill on the statute books because Of
the loss of prestige If it Is repudiated by
the Irish election.
1t is probable, however, Britain will
continue to retire troops from Ireland
and to turn over Irish administrative ar
fairs to the provisional government at
Dublin.
Arthur Griffith president Of the Dali
Eireann (Sinn Fein parliament) and E.
G. Duggan, formerly chief liaison officer
of the Irish republican army. conferred
at length with Colonial Secretary Wins
ton Churchill, who is chairman Of the
government committee working out the
details Of the Irish settlemen. Griffith
and Duggan were among the signers OF
the Anglo Irish peace treaty, All the
slgners were invited to London to ex-
plain the agreement reached by the
hostile factions in the Ard Fheis, but
only two of them attended.
Churchill said 1t was important the
government should have clear under
standing with the Sim Feln on Irish
matters. 1t is likely Griffith will remain
In London until next week. so he can
confer with Premier Lloyd George when
the premier returns from France. Brit

DAVIS TO CALL
CONFERENCE IN
MINE TROUBLE
Secretary of Labor Will Direct
Attention to 1920 Stipu-
latiOn.
PROVIDES FOR SESSION

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-The Govern
ment's first move to prevent a Nation
wide coal strike on April 1.-THE calling
Of a conference between coal operators
and miners-will be taken within day
or two, 1t was learned officially at the
Department of Labor today.
Secretary of Labor Davis will call to
the attention of the two groups in the
present controversy that the bituminous
wage award of 1920 stipulated that an
interstate joint conference be held prior
to April 1, 1922, to discuss any differ
ences chat may exist between employers
and the workers.
Inasmuch as there is no super organi-
cation existing among the operators, it
is probable that Secretary Davis will in
formally call the attention of individual
operators to the existing pact between
them.
Officials were confident that there
would be little difficulty in bringing
about q conference between the operators
and miners.
