Well Qualified Candidate for Marshall Township Supervisor
A Republican candidate seeks the Marshall Township supervisor post. He is described as a careful businessman with prior service as supervisor, including chairing the building committee during the courthouse construction. He emphasizes experience and reliability for the position.
Township Conventions Name Party Ticket Leaders
The Republican convention at the county house nominated Supervisor Veach and Highway Commissioner Brogsman with W. R. Peck as town clerk vacancy. Democrats named Samuel Prevo for supervisor and John Dawson for highway commissioner. Other townships list Republican and Democrat nominees for supervisor, with several independent or mixed tickets, amid reduced interest since no town clerk assessor or collector is to be elected this year.
