This is an election to decide whether or
not the Townships will vote to tax them
selves $500 additional for public school
purposes in order to secure another 5000

ply to Raleigh township, as it is to vote
on the question of an issue of $4,000 of
bonds for school purposes.

ship election are practically the same per-
sons as were appointed for the road-law
election in 1895. This time, though, they
are to get 81 a day for their services in

provisions of the new election law, as
