At the BOARD.

III VIII Ue seen from our careful
report of the proceedings of the
board of county commissioners that
one wall Of our Jail Is to be pulled
down, and that when the work has
been corrected SO far the whole will
probability be accepted. This there
fore Is an accomplished fact, and We
swallow il with the best grace pos
sible as We 10 the inevitable on all
occasions.
Bat the board, 4, the same meet
ing has ordered tina, a complete
item.zed account of the financial
condition Of the county be prepared
aud laid kfore the people. The law
require, that Ibis be done twice each
year, but the law has been steadily
ignored IL TIE face of repeated de.
mand. from our grand jury and re-
sardless OF a public sentimen, which
has become stronger and stronger
year after year. The chairman has
stated that this exhibit will be made
To convince his fellow citizens that
the member, Of the board are not
thieves. In this he allows his feel.
Ing to run away with his reason.
Did the law think anybody a thief
when it prescribed the duties of the
board Does a business man &c.
cuse his bookkeeper of theft when
he takes an inventory of stock or
examines his ledger: There is no
citizen in all Putnam who will &C.
cuse the board or any member Of
theft or Intentional wrong doing.
But all would like to see and under.
stand the financial condition Of our
county, how much goes in, what
comes out and why it comes out. IF
there is any insult implied in a de.
sire 50 natural and 50 lawful it can't
be helped.
Again 1t is urged tina, such publ.
cation cannot be made because it
would cost the county give hundred
dollars Against this We might
urge that what the law prescribes
must be done even it the expendi.
ture Of such sum is necessary. But
it shall no. be. We will publish the
exhibit gladly and freely, and not as
charity either, bu, because it is in.
formation for our patrons which
will bc .anSiou,ly looked for, and the
board aas a secretary, SO we suppose
the transcript will cost nothing.
What then becomes Of the only OBJ
lection urged against the publca-
ton Of the statement? We have
been ready to do the same freely
since the birth o. TUE NEwS-be.
fore tina, surely the Herald, which
has drawn so much from the county
would have done the same. II the law
requires such u statement now the
same law las been in force for years,
yet no Ineligible statement has ever
been given to the people. True we
have a new board and the "hope
which spring. eternal in the human
breast in this instance is based
solely on the presumption that these
gentlemen have the moral stamina
necessary to an enforcement Of the
law and the rights of the people.
