Rock Springs Miner no. 43 October 27, 1906
ELMER E. PETERS
Republican candidate for County Commissioner is a native of the Buckeye State, where he was born in 1861. The first eighteen years of his life were spent upon the farm, attending school during the winter and in the summer assisting with the cultivation of the land, in this way laying the foundation for a practical and useful life. At the age of eighteen he entered the employ of the Nickle Plate Railroad and later came to Wyoming to enter the employ of the Union Pacific. He located at Green River in 1887 and has ever since been a resident of our state and county. At Green River Mr. Peters has built up an extensive business in lumber, hay, grain and coal, to the management of which he devotes the greater part of his time.
He has already served as commissioner for four years and has given the best of satisfaction to the residents of Sweetwater county. He is well acquainted with the affairs of the office at the time and can be depended upon to do his utmost for the good of the county and its residents. His life has been divided between the farm, the railroad and trade, thus making him familiar with three of the great interests of the county and fitting him for the position which he holds.
Mr. Peters has always been a loyal Republican and every Republican voter can feel assured he is supporting the right man when he casts his ballot for Elmer E. Peters.
