quirements. Having selected the post
tion of tax collector, she bent her ener
gies to that end and brought about
her own election. Her spur was the
dreaded possibility of working the rest
of. her life in the stQre that her father
owned if she did not win.
Laconia is not a small village, but a
town of 15,000 people, covering an area
of eight miles. It has three railroads,
three postofnces and extensive manu
factories. It has a mixed population
with many French-Canadians. On the
whole, the business condition is not one
that would simplify the fulfillments of
the duties of tax collecting.

Jll Martha K. John hoii Tux Collector
of laconia, i. 11.
ISS MARTHA E. JOHNSON is the
rst woman in New England to be
appointed or elected to a public office.
and few have been chosen since she
entered on her duties, although she first
took her oath of office 10 years ao
Miss Johnson is the city tax collector
of Laconia, N. H., and since the beginning-
of hpr career she has Collected
more than a million and a half of ttol
lars. There is as yet no inclination to
remove her from the office that she
holds, and as election after election
passes and she is rechosen, the convic
tion that she is "the man for the
place" is growing in the minds of the
people she serves.
Miss Johnson was not elected with
out the usual struggle, nor without a
certain amount of belittling-. The idea
of a woman in pubiic office was suffi
ciently unheaxd of to call down upon
her head the -anticipated number of
objections. She was told that as more
than $150,000 must be collected annually
the collector must be a. man who un
derstood the industries fully. She met
the objection with the fact that she
did not desire to be Assessor, and would
not. consequently, be obliged to place
valuations. The objections that she
would turn the office into a pink tea
room and sprinkle it with talcum pow
der were met somewhat more readily.
The tax assessor s first election was
due to the sense of humor of tho people
of Laconia. She was elected by the
votes of people who cast them for her
with the firm belief that she could not
De elected anyway, and it would be a
novel and harmless experience to vote
for a woman. Miss Johnson took her
election and her position seriously. She
was possessed with the idea that she
elected to her office to collect
taxes, and she consequently devoted her
time to doing so. She proved herself
so completely during her first term in
1905 that she was elected with little
opposition in 1906, and has been elected
annually ever since. Occasionally an
other candidate runs against her, but
he never gets very far, and the fact of
his defeat is another evidence that
Martha Johnson may be tax collector
of Laconia as long as she will accept
the office. The uncollected records
have diminished from year to year,
until they are down to the minimum,
notwithstanding the fact that the town
is comprised of a shifting population.
Her success has been made an example
for other tax coflectors all over her
state.
Miss Johnson was educated in the
public schools of Laconia and later at
tended business college there. She con
ceived the idea that a woman with fair
intelligence was as deserving- of public
office as a man possessing the same
qualities, and began looking about for
at: office which seemed to All the re
