IBERTSON UNDERTAKER and COUNTY CORONER 405 Beltrami Ave. Bemidji,»Minn. Ordered and to be paid for by J. L. George of Bemidji, Minn., $10 for series ty: The undersigned has made but lit- tle stir in his position as candidate for re-clection to the office of county auditor, for several reasons. Either I have heen a good auditor or a poor one. If the latter be the case I might as well save my time and mon- ey and get back to the “woods.” If the former is the case, as I feel cer- tain it is, others must know it, and it is not necessary for me to blow my own horn. I have worked faithfully for two vears in the service of the people and have accomplished much that was needed in the matter of systematizing the office, opening new records, which should have been opened years ago, bringing up the neglected back work, and putting matters generally in geod shape for whomsoever might succeed me in the office. T was under a great handicap when 1 took the office a year ago last Jan- vary. I know nothing regarding the affairs of the office, and knowing nothing, perhaps promised more than I was able to fulfill. Had I been lacking in nerve and business sys- tem, I would have feared to go go beyond the limit of clerk hire allow- ed by law, and in so doing would have placed a limit on the work to be done. Fxpecting, however, to pay out of my own pocket for all extra clerk hire, T at once put an extra force at work, supposing all back work could be cleaned up in a few months. For- tunately the legislature of 1911 pass- ed a law giving the commissioners of certain counties of small valuation. the right to increase the ordinary clerk hire of auditors to an amount which might be necessary to accomp- lish the work, subject to the approval of the public examiner and the at- torney general. Owing to their abil- ity to judge of the work, these two gentlemen at once agreed, and the board of commissioner have been quick to realize the value of the work done, thus granting the increase readily. I have two deputies and two clerks, all of experience and there is not a lazy bone in any of them. They have been willing to work nights, Sun- days and holidays and have needed no driving at any time. I have never expected them to work unless I was working with them. The current work has largely in- creased in the last two years. More tax certificates were Issued in 1911 than had been issued in all the pre- vious years since the organization of the county, and more were issued in 1912 than for all years before in- cluding 1911. Each one of these cer- tificates means more than ten times the amount of work needed, if taxes were paid up promptly, instead of be- ing allowed to go into judgment. Regarding the policy of changing auditors every two years, I can say only this: I have been in the office for nearly two years and I find that there are some things yet to learn. A new auditor would require as much time to learn the routine and then probably give way to another in two yvears. No first class business house would think of doing such a thing. Experience is what they want and are willin to pay for. The auditors’ office is the last place where a change of head is beneficial to the taxpayers. There are too many matters in process at all times, matters that require a week or a month to complete, and if changes are made the system is broken and chaos reigns once more. J. L.
