- Description:
- A handwritten ledger of voters in the April 1, 1907, local election. The ledger records registrations for the First Precinct of the Third Ward. Notes at the end of the ledger list the following: Inspectors: William H. Porter Schuyler Champion Elmer S. Avery Clerks: Jack T. Norris Josiah Bruno Gate Keeper: Nelson Brown The ledger consists of several columns, some of which are not identified. It can be assumed that the first column (before voter name) is for registration status, a check-mark meaning registered, "N. R." for Not Registered. Occasionally there are notes in that column as well. The second column is voter's name, the third column is not identified. Fourth and fifth columns are for Republican or Democrat, the sixth column is for other party affiliation. Following that is the residential address of the voter and any notes about employer, rooming status, etc. The end papers note the results for some of the races in the election, with vote counts. There are many election-related articles that appear in both the Lansing "State Republican" and "Journal" for the end of March and early April, 1907, including profiles of all the candidates.

- Description:
- "This is a personal request that you help elect my good friend, George M. Foster, to the important office of State Highway Commissioner. I am deeply concerned that our state highway administration be in capable and experienced hands. George is thoroughly capable to build the roads we need and has had 25 years of experience in the Department. Now that the State and Federal Governments have provided greatly-increased funds for highway improvements, it is even more important that the work be accelerated without delay. You can help to place a proven, competent, highway engineer in this important job by voting for George and getting your family and friends to do likewise. We cannot afford to experiment now."
