In 1889 was Chairman of the County Board,
which office required that I spend extra days at
the County Seat, signing Warrants and doing
other work which falls to the Chairman of the
Board each year and for this work 1 received
mileage to and from Pine City, but did not receive
per diem. Mileage is fixed by Statute 1t is also
fixed by Statute that the Chairman of the County
Board and the County Auditor and the Clerk of
Court, constitute the Board of Audit and per diem
and mileage for that work is also fixed by Statute
In addition thereto, in 1899, I received $2547O
for appraising of forfeited tax land. The fees for
these appraisals are fixed by Statute and Board
members compelled to make such apprasals
l also received $175.50 in 1889 as member of the
Welfare Board. This covers per diem and mile
age and the amount is also fixed by Statute
The pamphlet published by the Pine County
Township Officers Association, gives the follow
ing Welfare expenditures:
Direct relief commandments 96491
Aid to dependent children - 27,O33OO
Temporary poor relief -- 739851
These the figures spent by the Welfare
board including Federal state and county share
and my opponent, Mr.. Ladd is circulating this
pamphlet, trying to leave you voters under the
impression that these are all county funds To
prove that he is In error we give you the follow
ing appropriations made by the county board for
the year 1882
For Direct Relief, $4,000; Aid to Dependent
Children, $1,000; and for the year 1910 the county
board appropriated $4,000 for Direct Relief and
$4,000 for Aid to Dependent Children This can
be verified at the County Auditors office
AS to the last minute articles written by nv
opponents or their sponsors, which appeared in the
Askov American Immediately before the Primary
Election, leave it to you whether these articles
came in good faith and sincerity, inasmuch as
had no time to answer the accusations made be-
fore the Primary Election. To me it seems that
they were of political nature. If there had
been any just criticism it could have been made
any time during the last four years. Further.
the statement by my opponent Mr. Laid,
that think the tax payers and voters are blind
seems to apply better to him than to me-
Citizens and voters of the Fourth District, I
have given you the above facts in all sincerity
and good faith and have diligently endeavored
to give you good and honest service to the best
of my ability during the past four years. If you
voters of the Fourth District express your conf
dence in me by re-electing me for another term,
will continue to give to the people of the Fourth
District the same efficient and honest service,
equal rights to all and special privileges to none

AS you know, I took office in January, 1887.
Compare Mr.. Ladd's highest tax of $5542, previous
to the time l took office with MIR. Ladd's high
est tax since / took office, which $4O88, or
$14.54 less.
(2) Again referring to Mr.. Ladds article, in which
he interrogatively accuses me of poor economy
and states that Pine County went in so deep the
last three years that it became necessary to bond
the County for $18OOOOO0. For the Qualification
of you voters of the Fourth Commissioner Dis
trict land Mr. Ladd) l submit the following sta
tistcal facts:
The warrants and bonds outstanding as of De-
cember 81, 1886, prior to the time l took office,
were:
(a) Road and Bridge Warrants
outstanding -------------$4 SAT 65O.52
(b) County Aid Road Warrants
outstanding 44283.l2
(c) Revenue Fund Warrants
outstanding 36,7O5.43
(d) Ditch Bonds outstanding - 100000
making a total of $142639.O7, all warrants and
bonds bearing per cent interest, all of which
we inherited on January l, 1887, from the previ-
Gus administration, and all of which was paid
out of the $180000.O0 bond which was floated aft
er 1 took office, and about which Mr.. Laid is
at the present time so concerned.
Of the $1SO,OOOOO bond, 100000 was taken
by the State at 313 per cent interest and
$90000.00 taken by a private bonding
company at 334 per cent interest. This was
saving of $4,275.0O per annum on interest.
After paying the inherited indebtedness of
$142,63907 of outstanding warrants, over
drawn $37,360.93, most of which due to the
extravagant and unwarranted expenditures of
the County Engineers Office before able
to make change in said office.
60 With reference to Mr.. Ladds bizarre state
ment that the County built from Is to 20 miles
of County Aid road annually in the Fourth Com
missioner District, before I took office, l would
say that if there had been even Is miles of County
Aid road built each year in the Fourth Com
missioner District, there would have been no roads
left to build at the time 1 took office and all of
the roads in the Fourth Commissioner District
would have been County roads.
Mr.. Laid states that he does not know what
we have done regarding the management of the
Poor Farm. We submit to you the following
figures in the cost of operating the Poor Farm
In 1886 the cost of operation was $459455
In 1889 the cost of operation was $261799
or saving of $1,87656.
Quoting from Mr.. Ladd's article, he states, ct
do know that the Poor Fund was raised higher
every year,. We submit to you the following
figures taken from the Auditors records in Pine
City:
In 1886 the levy for the Poor Fund was $21, 1888
In 1910 the levy for the Poor Fund was 100000
az Mr. Ladd's article further states that we re-
ceived $95, 100000 in Gas Tax funds annually since
I have been member of the Board To clarity
this distorted allegation I submit the following
facts:
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1940-10-31
Presenting The True Facts To The Voters
OF The Fourth Commissioner District

In 1887 received $68,O00.00 Gas Tax money
In 1888 we received $76,84O.OO Gas Tax money
In 1899 we received $75,OOO.OO Gas Tax money
In 1910 we received $73,25O.O0 Gas Tax money
Replying to Mr.. Zimmerman's accusation that
NONE of the Gas Tax money received was used
to build roads in the Fourth Commissioners Dis
trict and that the Fourth Commissioners Dis
trct was neglected and that this money was
used to build roads in some other Commissioners
District, submit the following statistical facts,
taken from the records in the Engineers Office
in Pine City:
Total cost of construction work in Pine County
for the year 1897 was $68, 1924;
Total cost of Construction Work in the 4th
Commissioner District in 1887 was $14,0O648
(There were also 81h miles of township roads tax
en- over into the County Aid System in 1887 in
the Fourth Commissioner DiStrict)
Total Cost of Construction work in Pine Coun-
ty for the year 1888 was SAG, 1924
Total cost of Construction work in the 4th Com
missioner District in 1888 was $6,36721, plus ap-
proximately $120O000 in WPA Road Work, which
was also done in the Fourth Commissioner Dis
trict in the year.
The total cost of Construction work done in
Pine County for the year 1899, excluding WPA
work, was $31,O9328;
Total Cost of Construction work done in the
18th Commissioner District in 1889 was $6,377.07.
Up to date, September Is, 194O the total cost Of
construction work in Pine County for 1910 is $15-
the Fourth Commissioner District.
In the years 1888 and 1899 there were 1914
miles of Township Roads taken into the County
Aid Road system. Of this 12A miles were in
the Fourth Commissioner District.
In May, 1888, we hired a different County
Engineer. 1 have talked to quite number of
people who do quite lot of travelling through
out the country, and they all claim there was as
much construction work done in any year, 1888
and 1899, as in 1887 any previous year, and
myself do know that is true. Then we have saved
the county over $4,000 in the two years of 1888
1885,
Mr. Zimmermans accusation regarding the
$20,O0000 which was levied in the County to cover
the Poor Fund when his father commission
er, back in the horse and buggy days when any
person who needed assistance was called pau
per, and Mr.. Zimmermans irrational estimate of
$95,00000 which he or his sponsors endeavored
to make you voters believe was levied last year
by the County Board, shows him to be ignorant
on two counts to wit: first, that the amount &C
tually levied for the Poor Fund 100000
(this figure is taken from the County Auditors
records). Second that Mr.. Zimmerman's lack of
understanding of the Social Security Program is
deplorable in one seeking public office.
To refute these unjust and false accusations,
submit the following statistical facts taken from
the Auditors records:
