Pike's excise commission Governor O'Nea rejected two of the men of MT Browns choice and appointed two whom he did not recommend.
 This, however. he said, was a thing in the hands of the governor of the state, and he did not essay to exercise nor in- fluence the power or the authority of the governor in local appointments nor in appointments at large. Therefore, if the governor did not appoint on the excise commission of his county the men whom he suggested suitable for that office, that was the governors business and not his. He further stated that he would support Governor ONeal in all his policies long as these policies were consistent with what he considered good govern ment.
