In this depiction it is clear that there are numerous side conversations going on and many of the men are speaking over one another. In comparison, the Native American meetings are much more civilized because they allow everyone to have their say and never interrupt or speak over one another. How ironic that the "savages" are civilized and respectful in their meetings with one another while the civilized white men are the ones acting like animals.
