of public notice. Acting as secretary OF

They are beautiful, large and spright-

and only equaled, perhaps, by the
little Leghorn. I have never yet
known person who owned a yard Of
pure Plymouth Rocks to change for
any other breed. The Poultry BulLe-

value, combining the merits of good

The election of a road supervisor for
Chlmacum district was held at the prop.
er time, we are told, in accordance with
an item published in the ARGUS, of Dec.
9th last, giving the substance of the
new road law for this county. The law
had not been published, but We had a
certified copy of that particular one
When the board of county commission
ers were in session here recently, it was
stated to us that the road supervisor in
Chimacum district had been kept in the
dark about the holding OF an election,
at least had not been notified of it,and he
knew nothing of it; and we were asked if
he wero not the proper person to give no.
tIce of the election, and If an cleo
ton ignoring the supervisor OF a
district where the district had a
supervisor, was legal? We replied that
If the facts were as stated. in our opinion
the election in Chirdacum precinct was
illegal; but that it might have been oc-
casioned through an imperfect kno vi
edge of the law; and that the defect
could be remedied by having the person
sought to be elected, appointed by the
commissioners, as provided in the law.
That law is very simple. It reads:
THAT notice of the hour and place Of
such election shall be given by the su-
pervisor in each district at least days
previous to said 1st Saturday in Janu.
ary, by posting not less than three writ
ten notices in said district. Providing,
that if there be no supervisor residing in
the destrict such notice may be given by
three legal voters of such district"
1t is plain from the above language
that if there was a legal supervisor re-
siding in Chimacum district, and the
notice calling the election was given by
three voters and not by the supervisor,
he ele ction held under such notices was
illegal, and the new supervisor could
not do legal act while holding his Of
fee under such election. Our cores
pondent can now judge for himself. II
We were correctly informed we hold that
Mr. Bishop has not been legally elected,
and to save possible trouble in the dis
trict his election should be legalized by
having the commissioners appoint him in
the manner prescribed by the law in
cases of vacancies. We are glad to know
that Mr.. Bishop is likely to prove an ef-
ficient officer, but that has nothing To do
with the manner of his election.
