The People’s Voice TO ROOT TOWNSHIP VOTERS Wishing to express my appreciation for the support given mo at the primary, May 2nd, think it no more than right that I do so at this late date. Owing to some dissatisfaction that arose over the returns (not so much on my part) but to show fairness to those who may have supported me there was a petition filed with the court asking for a recount of votes, which resulted in a gain of seven votes for me over the original count, but still left ine tho defeated candidate. Sometimes defeat means victory to some one else, so I intend to take mine in that spirit and continue to boos some service. In the good work just started in Root township. Just another word in reference to my being a good subject for the county jail, no doubt but what it would be a good place to board, and very likely I would take company with me. As to what would happen if given the chance, in the removal of school houses, closing others up and defeating education in most every conceivable way one might think of 1 would like to know if that is not the very thing we have had to contend with for three years, and if I have failed in doing my duty it would be a favor to me if you kindly toll me. Thon talk about being extravagant with funds for selfish purjioses or any other purpose, wish you to know that there are several public documents and records, at hand that if you consult rather than form opinion from what some one might say will no doubt give you good results. Thank you one and all. J. C. HARKLESS.
