Clerk Becomes County 

 Engineer 



COUNTY ENGINEER 

 COUNTY ENGINEER'S OFFICE 



When I enrolled in your schools, some 

 14 years ago, I was receiving a salary of 

 about $1.50 a day as a clerk in a depart- 

 ment store. I am at present receiving a 

 salary of $1,400 per year. 



You will notice that I hold the position 

 of County Engineer of this County. I was 

 appointed to that position Jan. 1, 1913, at a 

 salary of $1,200 per year. 



From the year of 1902 to Jan. 1, 1913, I 



was elected at each fall election to the office 



of County Surveyor, my work at that time 



being land surveys, drainage, and city work.
