On last Saturday an entirely new
and untried board of county COM
missioners was indicted into office.
There are many of our citizens who
will contribute all in their power TO
handicap the new commissioners. 1t
is no unusual thing to hear some one
predict that their administration
will be failure and some of these
prophets will do al! in their power
to make their re-judgment come
true. Instead of lending their en-
enlargement and doing all they can
10 assist their commissioners in the
discharge of their duties they will at
the very first opportunity demand
OF him the performance OF some inn
practical act, not for the benefit of
the public, but for the private bene-
fit of the individual making the de-
mand III the commissioner is firm
practical aud sensible he will refuse

eeed to publish the fact TIC the
world that his county commissioner
is not trying TO do anything for the
good of his constituents and he VIII
