Wilson is an active. progrès, sire anil capable young man. and stands for a rigid enforcement of all the laws. He is finishing his fourth year as deputy in charge of the sheriff's of fice and is pre-eminently qualified :o discharge the duties of that office ,n a highly satisfactory manner, and >y reason of his experience and abil ity, the cost of the office should be reduced to the lowest figure in the history ot Jackson county. It is universally conceded that the sheriff's office is being conducted in 1 highly efficient manner, and the »lection of Mr. Wilson means a con- inuance in its present condition. An excerpt from the certified pillu le accountant's report to the County ’ourt, filed Marell Ith, 1916, con- altis the following: “All of these collections have been nromptly deposited in the treasury. The sheriff is observing the law re- luiring all delinquent taxes to be rought forward on the current rolls Mid entered on the tax receipts. This is a huge task, and they are doing '.he work as diligently as possible luring the stress of a heavy tax col- .ectlon. It is praiseworthy in the iheriff ot find his office administered vith no bustle or confusion. Only expert men are employed in the of fice. in the tax collections and oth-»r lepartments of the office. And It Is a pleasure to find Jackson county coming forward ns one of the best- officered counties in the state. Un doubtedly It is economy to employ only efficient men in the office of tax collector. “I have scanned every tax collec tion and every fee coming into th^ office and I find nothing out of place nor entered wrongly. This is an un usually good record.'' Mr. Wilson has by his own energies made himself a competent Deputy Sheriff, and by training and ability has the necessary qualifications for Sheriff.
