Our Board has never considered It a favor,
to any county or locality, to appoint committee
men thereirom, but rather feel under otliga-
tons to those who manifest willingness 10 at

The number Of committee men 10 Pickaway
county, is larger than in several of the most
important counties in the State, and in other
cases where the number seems large, it
was rendered so by our Board having extend
siVe facilities Of information, as to fitness, and
the probabilities Of attendance. They would
have felt it relief from an embarrassing po-
sition, had they been better acquainted with
Pickaway, rs well as in many o.htr counties in
Ohio.
The creeping in Of local prejudices into the
operations Of our Board. is contrary to the
very nature of things. The idea will not bear
entertaining, that they are such ounces as to
openly show a local spite. even admitting that
they might be narrow enough TO concoct such
a scheme. In their absence and in their be.
