REGISTER OF
DEEDS OFFICE
Full Text Of Charges Against
J. M. Emmel Filed with Gov
ernor by John A. Zapp.

To the voters of Stearns county:
Having filed charges of malfeasance
in Office against John M. Emmel, Reg
lister Of Deeds. l herewith append q
copy of the charges so that everyone
can see what they are.
Upon examination of matters in
connection with the Office of Register
of Deeds, find that on Jan. Sth, 1902.
Mr.. Emmel made two reports Of fees
received. attach copies Of the two
reports. ,
The second report states that sew
eraI hundred dollars were discounted
and returned to church societies. On
checking over the Numerical Register
l can only find instruments numbered:
1872, 1929, 52262, 532O3, 526O1, 1924.
1929, 1925, $1,000, 53S61, 5356s. 1860,
5000, 54274, 54275, 5431O, 54463, 54614,
54792, 54954, 55424 and $500, on
which the total fees were less than
$25. 90, as instruments recorded for
such organizations.
1t will be seen that according tt
the second report the average amount
of fees is eighty-three cents $3.50.
In 1898 total reported was $2O99.40.
There were 1869 instruments at SO
cents would be $2962.OO.
In 1900 total reported was $2360.50.
There were 5000 instruments at SO
cents would be s3,237 90.
In 1900 total reported was $2529.S0.
There were 414O instruments at SO
cents would be $3436.0O.
To these amounts will have to be
added other fees Of the office.
Qn 1908 there were 1914 instru.
ments at SO cents would be $324S.00
Amount reported was $3471.5O, which
goes to show that SO cents is about q
correct average.)
No doubt there were false reports
made in years prior to 1898, but didn't
look them up.
1t can be seen from the foregoing
that Mr.. Emmel was in the habit OF
cutting off about 100000 each yeal
from fees actually received.
LOT
doubt prior ones are in the same
shape.
On July 10. 1899, there were filed
a number Of instruments affecting
railroad lands, which were recorded
pursuant to an act of the legislature
and for which the state paid the re
cording fees. These instruments are
numbered 45,779 to 1891. They have
never been finished. The book ant
page of record and amount of fees
received not entered On indexes OF
numerical register.
Also find that q large number Of
changes have been made on the rec
ord after the recording of instru
ments. Appended is a list of a few
such changes:

A weak stomach weakens the man,
because it cannot transform the food
he eats into nourishment. Health
and strength cannot be restored to any
sick man or weak woman without first
restoring health and strength to the

digest enough food to feed the tissues
and revive the tired and run down

When my report for the year 1901
was heretofore made deducted
amount paid for clerk hire, being the
sum Of $4,000. I also deducted from
the amount actually received the
fees, amounting to several hundred
dollars, which I discounted and re-
turned from time to time, to church
societies and other organizations. I
also deducted, in making said former
report, several hundred dollars in
unpaid fees not collected and still I'm.
collected, which difference being taken
into consideration makes my present
statement tally approximately with
my former statement. I have been
advised by my attorneys that the
law merely requires me to state
amount Of fees received but I make
this return Of total amount Of fees
collected and uncollected so that no
one may be misinformed as to the
total amount Of fees Of the office, q
considerable amount of which was not
