The efficient, busine ss-like
manner in which l.. A. Hafer
has conducted the office of coun-
ty clerk and recorder is scarcely
realized by the tax payers or this
county until a comparison is made
with the business handled by the
office during the past ten years
and the expense which has been
incurred by the office in caring
for the amount of business tran
sacted.
That the exact figures might
be obtained, the records of the
receipts and expenditures of the
office have been obtained from
the Office for the past ten years,
which set forth and tell a story
which it would require not a
small space to narrate in full.
Following are the figures obtained
from the books, showing the sur
plus for the different years and
shortages, together with the
amount of clerical assistance en-
ployed py the different county
clerks, in addition to the clerk
and his deputy:
1907 surplus. s2,264.2o. Additional

Oscar DOWis Dead
In Old Missouri

Oscar Dowis, for fifteen years a
resident of this city, and one of
the best known and most popular
citizens of the community, died at
his old home at Sheridan, Missouri
Saturday, October 2Sth.
Mr.. Dowis came to Colorado
about twenty years ago and to this
city in January, 1902 During his
residence here he was engaged in
mining with his brother Leo who
preceded his to the grave one
year ago. About three years ago
his health began to fail and he was
forced to retire from the mines.
Two years ago he returned to his
old home in hope that the change
of altitude would be beneficial and
for a time it seemed that it would
be, but that dread disease, miners
consumption, had fastened itself
too firmly to be overcome.
There was perhaps no man in
this community that was held in
higher esteem or better liked by
all his associates than was Oscar
Dowis. Honest, honorable and
upright in all Of his dealings with
his fellow-man, big hearted and
generous to a fault, always ready
to assist any worthy cause and to
help the poor unfortunate who was
down and out, he won the respect
and admiration of all classes of
people. His death is sincerely
mourned by his host of friends
here who extend their heartfelt
sympathy to his aged father who
survives him. Interment was made
in the home cemetery, Monday,
October 30.

political ADVERTISEMENT

These 1916 figures cannot be
stated as absolute, as the year of
1916 is not yet over, but have
been obtained from an estimate
Of the amount CT business which
has been handled during the past
nine months of the year. The
surplus of the office for the cur
rent year, up to the first of the
present month amounts to $3.50,
and in view of the fact that for
the last four months each month
has shown a surplus of between
500 and 5000 a month, the esti-
mate of 500 for the entire year
is q very reasonable and logical
one, and at the same time not
liable to be excessive of the
amount which will be turned back
to Clear Creek county by the
clerk and recorders office for the
year 1916.
With the exception of the year
1911, when the surplus amounted
to $57. 30, each county clerk has
employed additional clerical as
sistance in the office to handle
the amount of work filed therein.
in order that at the end Of the
year surplus might be returned
to the county.
From this it will be seen that
the present clerk has handled
more business than any other
former office holder since 1907,
and that without any additional
assistance in the office, personal
ly and diligently, with a saving
to the Taxpayers Of the county
of $500.
Such is surely a meritorious ad-
mlnlStratlOn and one that ShOuld
be appreciated by the tax payers
of the county, as we'll as a record
which l.. A. Hafer, our present
clerk and recorder. can look back
upon with feeling of satisfac-
ton and pleasure. as having
faithfully and consistently per-
formed his duties and attended
strictly to business, both during
years when business has been
slack and again when the Office
has handled more business than
any other holder of the office
during the past ten years.

Courier overlooked the fact that
said contract would include the
printing of the official ballots and
the sample copies, the latter Job
always being done by the party
holding the contract for the former,
and the Secretary of State awarded
the contract for the Amendments.
