GEBHARDT GETS
BOARD HONOR
Fifth District County Com
missioner Chosen Chair
man for 1896.
F. w. Stepan is Vice Chair
man; Annual Meet Held
Tuesday, Wednesday.

Beginning the fourth year of his
fifth district in Pine county, Harry
GebharCt was chosen by his col
leagues Tuesday as chairman of the
county board. F. W. Stepan was
elected vice-chairman. Mr.. Gebhardt
took office Jan. 1, 1888 as successor
to Nels Mattson His election as
head of the board is significant of
the esteem in which he is held by
his associates. Other members on
the board are w. G. Ausmus, repre-
senting the second district; Charles
Pearson, first district; and ]. S. Pat
rick of the third. Mr.. Stepan rep
resents the fourth district
While the first day for the county
commissioners was largely spent in
routine business, they waited upon
several who had special requests or
transactions with them. The official
paper for the year 1886 was desig-
mated by them to be the Askov Amer
lean. and the Pine Poker's bid for the
second publication of the financial
statement was accepted.
]. E. Therrien, auditor, was ap-
pointed custodian of the court house
and the janitor is Walter Blanchard,
at a salary of SIS a month. Other
officers salaries set at the Tuesday
session are: sheriff. $1,000 for the
year; county attorney, $500; clerk of
court, 5000; and the clerk for the
county superintendent of schools will
get $50 per month. The Superintend-
ent's salary drew considerable argu-
ment pro anc. con from the board
with a legal technicality being the
point of argument. His salary was
finally fixed at S1S75, which repre-
sents an increase of S175 over what
he received last year.
The poor farm manager position
was discussed but inasmuch as his
term does not expire until March 81,
it was decided to advertise for bids
and take up these in the March
meeting.
A resolution was adopted by the
board to refuse any applications for
rebate or deduction of personal prop
erty taxes unless an error is proved.
This action was taken because the
board has no legal responsibility in
the matter unless, as stated, an error
is shown to have been made.
