Political satire and draft era jabs in Emmet County notes
A lively fragment from 1917 contrasts pacifist sentiment with wartime duties, lampoons profiteers and tax ideas, and blends local notices on road work and a large county bid invitation. It includes bids for D. C. No. 107 projects, specifications, start and end dates, and required bonds, plus a testimonial about Chamberlain's Tablets from Niagra, New York.
