The efficient. business-like man.
ner in which l.. A. HAFER has
conducted the Office of County
Clerk and Recorder is scarcely
realized by the tax payers of this
County until a comparison made
with the business handled by the
Office during the past nine years
and the expense which has been
incurred by the Office caring for
the amount of business transacted.
That the exact figures might be
obtained, the records of the re-
ceipts and expenditures of the
office have been obtained from the
Office for the past nine years,
which set forth and tell story
which would require not a small
space to narrate in full. Following
are the figures obtained from the
books. showing the surplus for the
different years and shortages, to-
gether with the amount of clerical
assistance employed by the differ
ent County Clerks, in addition to

1916 surplus 1910 No additional Clerk hire.
1917 $3.50 - - sa.51
From this it will be seen that
the present Clerk has handled
more business than any other
former Office holder since 1908,
and that without any additional
assistance in the Office, personally
and diligently, with a saving to
the tax payers of the County of
$500.
Such is surely meritorious adj
ministration, and one that should
be appreciated by the tax payers
of the County. as well as a record
which l.. A. HAFER, our present
Clerk and Recorder, can look back
upon with feeling of satisfaction
and pleasure, as having faithfully
and consistently performed his
duties and attended strictly to
business, both during years when
business has been dull, and again
when the Office has handled more
business than any other holder of
the same Office during the past
nine years.
