worked in nearly all capacities here.
In 1891 he went into the clerk and
recorders office as a deputy and in

over one of the most popular young
democrats in the county. He is a
careful, courteous officer, always
pleasant and willing to assist those
in quest of information or who have
business with him. He is heavily
interested in Meagher county and
has been on constant guard of the
interests of the taxpayers. His op-
