Better Passenger Service.
Greenfield Gazette.)


The directors of the Brattleboro
board of trade have issued AN indorse-
ment of the present management of the
New Haven road. They call attention to
the improvement Of passenger service
since that corporation controlled the Bos-
ton Maine system. They say there has
been a 30 per cent betterment in this
respect. In this they are quite right.
Whatever criticism may be made of
the aims and methods of the road under
Mr.. MeIlen, passenger service has enor-
mously improved on this division The
present management should have the
credit. The Boston & Maine manage,
ment ran trains when they were not
wanted, and refused to run trains when
they were wanted. The New Haven
modernized the antiquated, time table,
added several new trains, established
direct connection without change with
New York. The New Haven road is at
least progressive. If it will confne it.
self to its legitimate sphere of labor, it
will in time serve the public a great
deal better than ever the Boston & Maine
did.

No Defense Offered.
(Rutland News.)

The recent reference in these
columns to Governor Fletcher's ap-
pointment of Frank E. Barber as
municipal judge in Brattleboro, to the
effect that such appointment is well
received, has stirred up some discus
sion. 1t seems that the appointment
of Mr., Barber is decidedly distasteful
to the lawyers and business men gen
orally of Brattleboro. 1t is stated
that Judge William R. Daley was en-
dorsed by practically all of the bust
ness men of the town and the majority
The Brattleboro daily reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1913-1955, 1913-05-19

of the lawyers who had occasion to
practice in the court but that despite
this fact the governor appointed in
his stead Mr.. Barber because of his
political obligations to him. 1t is I'M
derstood that the Brattleboro lawyers
propose to carry their disapprOval of
the appointment to the extent of prac-
tically boycotting the court. Governor
Fletcher has not vet made any defense
of his appointment, and probably viii
not. The natural deduction then viii
he that there is nothing that he say
in defense of his official action.

Coed Place to Put Money.

just at this time when Brattleboro
is striving to get new federal build
ing to house the postoffice and the
United States court, it is fortunate
that eX-Congressman Kittredge Has
kins is the postmaster, because he has
been through the process so many
times while in Washington that he
ought to be able to unravel some of
the red tape. And, by the way, it
ought to be stated that the growing i'm
portance of the organ town demands
a large appropriation and, consequent

Suppose the receipts from the band
show will be any smaller than usual
because it was necessary to use one
piece of real ice in each performance?
Now that the work of soliciting
funds for the support of local team
in the Twin State baseball league has
been started another reference to the
need of generous contributions may
not be out of place. The local situa-
ton has already been outlined in The
Reformer. Before Brattleboro can put
a team in the field enough money must
be raised to liquidate last year in
debtedness and provide a rainy day
fund for the coming summer. This
ought not to be difficult. however. No
matter what one : opinion is of the
way the sport was conducted in 1912
he ought to be willing to help pay
last year 5 bills for the sake of the
pleasure that will be derived from a
continuation of the national pastime
in this town. The local directors have
announced that better terms with the
owners of Island park have been ar
ranged, and have engaged manager
who may be depended upon to make
every dollar 90 as far as possible. In
view Of these facts the necessary mon
ley ought to come easily and quickly.

OUR QUESTION BOX

Will you kindly tell me when the
Prohibition party came into exist
ence?
Until 1865 what may be designated
political temperance depended on the
use of the parties as they were found
to exist in the states This localized
the temperance issue and subjected it
to the within of opponents. In 1869
during a session Of the Good Templars
of Oswego, n. y, a call was made
for a convention to organize Ma
tional Prohibition party" This con
vention met in Chicago, September 1,
1869, with five hundred delegates from
twenty states, and launched the new
party.

Homes For Mexican Laborsrs.

Mexico City. Aug. II. Ministers
Francisco de la Barra and Toribio Els
quivel Oregon presented a PROPOSE
ton at the cabinet meeting for build
ing houses for labOring men at the eX-
pense of the government. These will
later be sold to labOrers at cost.
The sum of $S00,00O has been asked
for this purpose, to be taken from the
loan which was recently tioated. The
houses will be built at Balbuena and
ut two other points where there are
lands belonging to the government.
The plan is a continuation of the
general scheme as instituted by De
la Barra while he was president .ad in
term of the republic. At that time he
organized the department of labor.
which has done much to assist the Ia
boring class in the solution of its diff
cuties with the manufacturers.
This plan is intended to enter into
competition with the private enter
prises supplying houses for laboring
men. in order TO force private owners
to furnish hygienic homes at reaSona-
bic rates. In many cases there are no
such houses. due to the fact that the
proprietors merely convert buildings
which cannot be used for any other
purpose into "yiyiendas," which are
rented at unreasonable rates. rather
than build houses expressly for the
purpose CT renting or selling them to
laboring men. ABB 81

Avoiding the MiddIeman.

Wathena. Kan, Aug. H.-To get rid
of the middleman and incidentally to
give the consumer more for his money
a dozen fruit growers living around
this city organized a cooperative as
ISOLATION nine years ago. Today the
Wathena Fruit Growers association.
with its 80 members, is perhaps the
most noted fruit shipping concern in
the middle west.
1t all sprang from the disgust of one
man, w. +. Martin, who on a June day
in Wathena tried to sell a crate of
twenty-four boxes of berries and could
get from the soulless middleman who
looked at them only 80 cents
Martin started out at once to remedy
this state of affairs. He became gen
eral manager of the new association
and has held the place ever since. The
organization is incorporated for $2J,-
600, of which $4,000 is invested in a
building. Its general success has been
remarkable. Last year it sold it's ber-
ries at an average price of Sl.32. or
164 per cent more than Martin receiv-
ed for his fateful crate in 1904.
Wathena lies in the fertile Missouri
river district, about fifty miles north
of Kansas City. The section is so i'm
portant from a fruit growing stand
point that the Kansas experiment sta
ton has put an agent in the field there
to cooperate with the growers in fight
ing insects and advising on other prob
lens. Last year Doniphan county. in
which Wathena lies, grew more than
SSOOOO0 worth of fruit
When a man is taken into the Fruit
Growers association he pays into the
treasury $40. In addition he must buy
at least So worth of stock and may
buy more if it is available. Some
members own as much as 81 900 worth
of stock.

Boys Co. operating With City Officials

Ithaca, y. Y. Aug. William K.
George, founder of the Junior repub-
lies and the national director OF the
National Association of Junior Repub-
lies, is starting in this city Il new plan
for the practical training Of American
citizens. This plan is known as the
junior municipality. The boys and
perhaps the girls also between the
ages of sixteen and twenty-one are to
become junior citizens and elect from
among themselves officers. from the
mayor down. The boy mayor will
place himself at the disposal of the
city's mayor and cooperate with him
in the enforcement of laws and Ordi-
nances. more especially those relating
to boys and girls and matters directly
affecting them. The boy police com
missioner will in like manner coop
crate with the adult police commits
sioner, and so on down the line The
boys common council will sit from
time to time. as guests and auditors.
with the regular common council, and
each man ~councior will have a boy
from his district upon whom he may
call for assistance
Already the neighboring city of COrt-
land has invited Mr.. George to start
similar organization for them. and he
will lay the plan before their common
council within a few days. If the plan
proves successful in these two small
cities there is no reason why it should
not gradually be extended to all the
small cities of the country Mr. George
also hopes to work out some modifica-
ton of the plan for use in large cities.
In this connection he recently had a
talk with Mark Pagan. head of the
newly elected commission for Jersey
City. Mr.. Pagan took to the idea in
stantly and asked Mr.. George to visit
Jersey City in the fall and start a
Junior municipality.
