The meetings of the Board oi Supervisors of this county are not conducted with that decency and decorum which is customary with such bodles. On the contrary the members, one and all, indulge in profane and vulgar language to a very great extent among themselves and occasionally to those who have business before the Board. The chail man makes no effort to main tain order, but seems rather to di- rect his efforts in the opposite direc- tion. The result is that their meet
 ings sometimes generate into reg ular pandemonium, the members, with a sprinkling of outsiders, who go there for the purpose of having some fun, all shouting and swearing at the same time. To say the least this is very improper, and is one oi the reasons why our Board does not sucss1Ap obtaining from the people
