Hugh r. Scott. auditor of Hennepin
county, Is young man with q con-
sp1cuous record for fidelity to duty
and zeal In the discharge Of the af-
fairs Of his important office. He is
q native son Of Minneapolis, his father.
Charles Scott, being associated with
the late General Morgan in establish
Ing the first iron foundry at the Falls
of st. Anthony. Educated in the Min
neapolis public schools and the Uni
versity Of Michigan. he entered poll
itfcs at an early age. Previous to the
Spanish-American war he was a
deputy In the auditors office. At the
beginning Of hostilities he enlisted In
the Thirteenth Minnesota and saw
service with that regiment until it
was mustered out. A year later he
was elected county auditor on the re-
publican ticket. In 1902 he was nom
mated again by the republicans and
easily reelected by a large majority.
The auditors office is one that re-
and an endless amount of bookkeep-
Ing. It requires, therefore, as it's In
cunlbent a man Of methodical habit
and great painstaker. Such Mr..
Scott has proved to be. On another
side he has been equally successful.
Reference Is made to his success in
conducting the office in such q man
ner as to accommodate and please the
public, who have to resort to it for a
vast deal Of information. All persons
having business with the office are
made to feel at home the moment they
enter, and every effort is made to an
swer fully and satisfactorily every re-
quest for information.
Owing to Mr.. Scott's record as an
official who uses his influence in IA
vor Of a low rate of taxation, he Is
much admired by the business men
and property owners Of the city.

The county surveyor, George W.
Cooley, has been actively engaged in
surveying and engineering for thirty
years, operating turnout the entire
west and as far south as Texas. He
was born in New York city in 1S45 and
came to Minneapolis In 1854, where he
took up a position as assistant en-
gineer on the St Paul & Pacific rail-
way, now the Great Northern railway.
Shortly after this he went into the
employ of the national government and
worked on United States surveys from
1867 to 1872. During a portion of
this time he was also occupied as an
engineer in charge Of location and
construction on the Northern Pacific
railway. During all the time from
1866 to the present he has been iden-
titled with local surveys and became
county surveyor in 1872-1875. Mr..
Cooley also held office as alderman
from 1884 to 1888, and was the or
iginator Of the underground wire sys-
tenn. In 1899 he was once more elect
ed to the office of county surveyor
without opposition.
An enthusiast always on Good
Roads," Mr.. Cooley holds several po-
sitions Of honor in the organization de-
voted to the same, among them being
vice president, National Good Roads
association, and president, Minnesota
Goods Roads association.
He is identified with Lake Mime
tonka interests. and has kept a con-
tinuous record of the stage of water
in that lake.

Michael Hanley, the present first as
Blstant engineer of the Minneapolis
! fire department, began his career as
q fire fighter in the Minneapolis vol
unteer fire department on the Sd Of
January, 1875, and was connected with
Hose company No. at that time. He
left the department., on the disbanding
of the volunteer system. in 1879, and
after remaining out Of service until the
10th of October, 1888, he once more
resumed his duties as fireman, act
ing in the capacity Of "call man" with
Engine company No. 1, and afterward
held the position of pipeman in the
same company for q year. At the ex-
piration Of this period he was made
| lieutenant and for his diligence and
valor was promoted to the rank Of
captain, on Oct. Is, 1885, which po-
sition he held until Feb. /, 1899, when
he was advanced to the office of dis
trict chief. On Feb. 1, 1900, he was
agatnhpromoted and became second as
sistant chief. His present rank, that
of first assistant chief, was vested upon
! him on March 1, 1902. AS he was
connected with the old volunteer fire
department for four years (prior to
1879, and has been a member Of the
present fire department for twenty one
consecutive years, he demonstrates per-
fectly the growth and efficiency of the
Minneapolis fire department.

Mr.. Clausen was appointed by sher-
iff Dreger to the position of county
jailer on Aug. 4, 1903. and is acauit-
ting himself with credit in his respon-
sible office. Prior to this appointment
he served Hennepin county as deputy
sheriff.
Not only has Mr.. Clausen rendered
commendable service to the county,
but also to the city of Minneapolis
having done duty as plain clothes
man previous to his appointment as
deputy sheriff.
He was born in Drammen, Norway,
Dec. Is, 1860, received his education in
the common and high schools of that
country, and at the age of 18, entered
the government military school, serv-
ing four and a half years. when he was
graduated with distinction. In 1884
he came to America, arriving in Min
neapolis in 1885, when he sought and
obtained employment in the county
surveyors office, where he remained
one year. He then engaged in ber-
camille pursuits UP to the time Of his
entering the city's service.

superintendent of Police Department.
The man whose name stands at the
head Of this sketch is good example
of what may be accomplished by en-
ergy and sagacity when reinforced by
personal honesty and integrity. Pre-
vious to his appointment as superin-
tendent of the police department, he
served the public as county commits
sioner and won for himself in that Of
fee an enviable reputation as a man
capable Of handling public affairs.
He was born in Oshkosh, Wis, in
November, 1853, and came to Mime
apolis in 1880, where he started in life
as plasterers apprentice. In 1883 he
began business for himself as con-
tractor and continued in this until
1897, when he engaged in the fire in
surance business. Notwithstanding
close application to his personal bust
ness, he always found time to devote
considerable attention to public affairs.
His affiliations politically have always
been with the democratic party, but
he was SO well thought Of by his COM
missioner associates, the majority of
whom were republicans, that they re-
tanned him as their chairman from
1898 to 1897.
The cycle paths in and around the
city, which are such a source of con-
venience and pleasure to the cycling
public, owe their origin to Mr.. Conroy,
as one of the first advocates Of the
same.
The present superintendent received
his appointment from Mayor Haynes
on Jan. 6, 1903, and during his in
| cumbency has placed the department
has entirely removed the stain left
upon 1t by a former administration
and now it can be safely said that
nothing but harmony and honesty
prevails among the personnel Of the
force.

Coroner Williams was born In the
state Of Illinois, and early in life was
taken to Wisconsin, where he obtained
an education in the public and high
schools Of that state. When but 10
years Of age, he arrived in Mime
apolis and embarked successfully in
the retail drug business. He, however,
decided to take UP a profession, and
accordingly became a, student in the
medical department of the Minnesota
state university, from which he was
graduated in 1889.
He has practiced his profession in
the city Of Minneapolis for more than
thirteen years and by his ability as a
physician and surgeon he has won the
confidence and esteem Of not only his
host Of patients, but also his fellow
practitioners and g. large following Of
admiring friends.
During all his administrations in the
office Of coroner he has abundantly
proven his ability and integrity.
At his last reelection he received g.
very gratifying majority and feels that
the office of coroner is certainly more
dignified than heretofore, owing to the
fact that the fee system has been
abolished and the office Is now on a
salary basis.
