WILLIAM BARRETT,
the nominee for sheriff is very competent
and substantial man one of your noble,

years in one of the populous counties of
Ohio and is very familiar with the duties
of the office. He used to sometimes take

easy on this score, and in other respects
all admit his qualification. He promises
