Sixteen months, of that time I have acted us Chairman, and, In all these years, 1 have endeavored to do my part In the conduct of the affairs of the County upon a hustneis basis ami without political nr factional bias. I know his: during iny administration as »Chali man, the Interests of the county have been subserved and economy lias been practised and that, absolutely there has been no politics In nny action of the Hoard. The results are shown In the Improved physical and financial condi tion of the county. The public debt has been decreased more than $45,- 000.00 and every department kept up to standard. Continued progress and. I think I may say, marked Improvement have been made on the roads.
