I If was elected district at torney in November, 1916. and prior to that served two terms as connty clerk of Marion county. In 1911 he resigned that office when the troops were called to the Mex ican border, being reappointed up on his return; - As district attorney Mr. Gehl har made an excellent record. During his entire term he has stood between the county treas ury and those who sought to set tle neighborhood rows and priv ate grudges by means of a crim inal prosecution at the county's expense. Full prohibition was made effect Ire shortly after he vent into office and his Incessant search after bootleggers has made Maiiou. county .one. ot the driest counties In the state. The rec ords indicate that during his term approximately 100 prosecutions were brought tor enforcement of the prohibiten laws, most of those arrested pleading guilty. Ot the contested liquor cases there has not been a single acquittal and on ly one hung jury. This Is consid ered a remarkable record. Fanri Will Have Attention The care and conscientiousness with which Mr. Gehlhar has con ducted the office Is indicated by the fact that during his entire term as criminal prosecutor, not a single indictment was ever round defective by the court, and fur thermore that the validity of not a tingle indictment was ever ques tioned in court. Ills thorough familiarity with the county's business affairs such as road and bridge matters and the general conduct of county bus iness has done much toward the rmooth operation of these depart ments. In his resignation Marion county lrses an efficient and val uable oit.ploye. . Mr. Gehlhar owns and operates a fruit farm near the city con taining ever 160 acres, of prunes and cherries, mostly In bearing, together with some strawberries. and this together with the opera tion of a large prune dryer and with his other Interests he finds. will occupy most of his time for the immediate future. I am extremely grateful to the people of Marion county for their many kindnesses in the past." said Mr. Gehlhar yesterday. "In politics they have given me every thing I asked for. This I will al ways remember with deep gratl tude. But I have reached a point wher- I must either quit my own affairs or those of the county.
