REDWOOD COUNTY RESIDENT
VISITS JULIUS" AND WRITES
GAZETTE OF CHANGES NOTED
IN POPULAR OFFICIAL.

A resident of Redwood County Wis.
tied julius A. Schmahl, State Treas.
urer, in his office the other day. AT.
ter long conversation with Mr.
Schmahl this man was moved to write
for the Gazette readers, of some OF
the changes of character and demean.
or which he discovered in his ole
friend.
81 called on Julius Schmahl, a for
mer Redwood Falls boy, at the State
Capitol, recently" writes a present
well-to-do citizen of the County, land
was surprised at the general change
that has taken place in the tempera-
ment and actions of this now promin-
ent citizen of the state. 1t had been
some years since l last met him to
converse with him for any length of
time, and after l left his office l COM
menced to compare the boy and
younger man whom l knew here in
Redwood County with the conserva-
tive, even-tempered, high-ideal man
who has charge of the millions of dol
lars of cash and many more millions
of dollars of securities of the people
of the state, bent every moment on
gathering in the revenues of the peo-
pie, and of caring for them as the
law directs. He was exacting accur-
acy from every employee, requiring
explanations here, directing actions
there, and at intervals, in response
to questions, was able to give me some
idea of what had been going on over
the spirit of his nature that caused
such a change in him as compared
with other days. saw a couple of
his employees afterwards, and they
pleased me by stating that after the
carrying out of his rigid rules of ac-
curacy and performance of work, he
was an unusually pleasant man to
work for.
81 must be frank in stating that
have never passed the stage of elm
mating profanity from my conversa-
ton, and after indulging in it couple
of times during our talk i was sur
prised to have Julius censor me for
using it.
Eliminate it," was his rather SER
ious admonition to me. "It does not
help you, nor does it help any person,
and in many cases is brings an in
jury. You probably know-no one
knows better-that l was rather vio-
lent in its use. Nearly year ago, in
return for popular favor, l deter
mined to abstain from its use. l did

the terms agreed to. The letter just
opened by Julius was supplementary

dering what kind of letter he sen,
out to the officer of the institution
which demanded the blood-money!
at is apparent that it is this broad
way of looking at things, of insisting
on the most careful personal super
vision of the money and securities OF
the people, of proper drift into the
religious spirit, of applying the rules
of strict honest and fairness in his
business transactions, that has caus-
ed only recently the Modern Life In
surance Company to elect julius to a
position on its board of directors and
on its finance committee. 1 am sat
isfied that he will make good.
Going to try to go any higher,
Julius?' casually remarked.
81 have just noticed in one of the
papers your correction of a statement
made by you regarding certain books
having been removed from your of
flee by the new administration board.
What about that? 2"
ayes was the reply, through a
misunderstanding of statement made
by the accountant in this office
made the statement to a joint COM
mittee of the legislature. 1t was
wrong, and I corrected it as soon as
l learned the facts. Here again l put
into use little philosophy recently
sent over the radio by DR.. Roy L.
Smith to the effect that it requires
more courage to back down than it
does to evade or attempt to edge
around mis-statement or a wrong
act. But there is much more per-
sonal satisfaction afterwards in
righting wrong promptly. My adj
vice is to do it quickly. 1t will help
the fellow or fellows whom you have
Internationally wronged, and will not
hurt you. What happened in this
case was the suspension of some of
the bookkeeping in this department,
now being done in the Board of Ad-

ped into the private office and hand
a check to julius for his signature.
1t was transfer check for $1,000
10000, one of a number of large
items that are placed before him daily.
"And as / gave him a hearty good
bye handshake, and passed out of the
capitol building, wondered what in
fluence had been working over this
man-friend of my earlier days, and
whom l am proud to class as my
friend today-to bring about this
noticeable change.

matter with this conclusion"
