seeks to succeed himself as Clerk and
Treasurer of this county. He has
held this office some sixteen years
and has always proved himself a most
faithful and efficient servant Of the tax
payers. 1t would be impossible for
an officer to be more obliging or more
attached to his work than Mr. Jepsen.
He Is crank on accuracy and his
records prove that he has lived up ii
his hobby. BY taking this special in
terest in keeping the records of his Of
flee in absolute perfect condition, has
made him one of the most valuable
officials in Douglas county. No post
in the county is as important as that
of clerk and treasurer and Mr.. Jep-

but once in his long administration,
has he had opposition. He will be the
next clerk and treasurer of Douglas
county because the voters realize
they have an exceptional capable and
efficient officer in that position and
will keep him there.
