Henry Peter informs us that he will make the election booths for this township himself He says be can make a neat, light and substantial frame booth at a much lower price than any that are offered for sale and thereby save the, township several dollars. His plan is to make one that can be taken apart and folded up into a small size when not in use. It can then be packed away and be about as good another year. If anybody wishes to inform everybody that he is a candidate for official honors in Harper Co.

he can do so through these columns for the small announcement fee of $5. This includes a copy of The Touknal until after election.
