 FOLLOWING UP MR M'FALL- There was a meeting of the Taxpayers Union yesterday at which it was de- cided to demand of the supervisors the removal of County Recorder McFall That demand will probably be made at meeting of the board today but it is quite likely that it will not be acceded to. As was stated by The Republican yesterday, the board will probably de- mand of the recorder an additional pond and the recorder will be given ten days in which t0 execute it. If he should succeed in doing so and it Is the general impression that he can easily do it. he will be allowd to hold his office until the end of his term. IL is not quite clear that the board of su- pervisors could remove him if desired to do so. The law provides for the suspension of a county officer in cer- tain cases and the temporary filling of his position by the board but removals can only be made by a judgmen. of the district court after a jury trial if the Incumbent demands a jury.
