Capt. E. w. Gibson's absence from
Brattleboro, being at the state mobiliza-
ton camp with the prospect of being
sent to Texas when a sufficient number
of recruits have been secured and
equipped has raised question in
Brattleboro as to his status with respect
to the office of village commissioner. 1t
has been argued by some that Captain
GIBSON cannot continue as member of
the board of commissioners, of which
he is now chairman, and at the same
time be an officer in the federal military
service. They base their contention on
Section 1929 of the Revised Statutes of
the United States, which reads as fol
lows: No officer of the army on the
active list shall hold any civil office,
whether by election or appointment, and
every such officer who accepts or exer-
clses the functions of a civil office shall
cease to be an officer of the army and
his commission shall be thereby va
Gated. AS The Meddler understands il
this statute does not apply in the ease
of Captaia Gibson, for the reason that
an officer of the militia, although he
may be in the federal service, is not IN
army officer within the meaning of the
statute. Captain Gibson is away for the
eminently praiseworthy purpose of serv-
ing his country. At the state camp
ground he is not too far away, tenn
porarily, to keep in touch with village
affairs or to be gotten in ease of ne
ccssity. Doubtless he has considered
what his patriotic duty to the village is,
ana it is to be expected that if he goes
to the Mexican border the prospects at
that time will determine his course and
he will have something to say on the
subject to the voters
Even those who have transgressed
the new traffic rules and regulations are
willing to admit that the new traffic
policeman, Charles Wood, is treating
them all alike, and fairly This officer
has pretty long tour of duty in a pref
~ warm or wet place, as the ease NAV
be. In most places where a traffic officer
Is on duty some provision is made to
protect him from the elements. The
traffic post near which he stands most
of the time is arranged to hold one of
the large umbrellas and il would not be
a great drain on the public, or a private.
purse, to provide one.
While on the subject of police The
Meddler cannot refrain from suggesting
that IN many places a part of the duty
of the police is to prevent loafers from
occupying steps, sidewalks and curbings
the length and almost the breadth OF the
principal streets Of a town. Women dis
like very much to run a gauntlet of
CLASSY stares and in some instances dis
agreeable, to say the least, comment We
are having the traffic laws enforced inst
now which is good for those who ride.
1t would not lie a bad idea to relieve
the conditions Of the few who still are
compelled to walk.

Import = French Draft Stallion.

Believing that the market for
horses is better now than for years
and that the increased demand will
cause farmers to pay more attention
to raising horses for the market, J.

several Thurston county farmers are
interested, have imported the French
draft stallion Pacha, Reg. No. 26S70.

BRYAN COMMENDS
MEXICAN POLICY
EX.SECRETARY SAYS ADMINS.
TRATION'S POSITION Is
CORRECT.

William Jennings Bryan is in full
sympathy with the latest develop
ments in President Wilson's Mexican
policy and said so the other day in
the following statement:
''The presidents attitude is, in my
opinion, the correct position for the
administration to take in this very
serious matter. am in favor of fol-
lowing, capturing and furnishing the
outlaws guilty of the attack on our
citizens in New Mexico, but do not
believe in any invasion of Mexico or
in intervention in the internal affairs
of that country.
II am glad" he continued, shat
the president is still determined not
to intervene. Intervention has been
urged for two years past by persons
having pecuniary interests in Mexico,
but I feel it would be extremely un-
fortunate at this time If we should
be drawn into a war with Mexico.
1.-THE Carranza government cannot
be held responsible for outrages per-
petrated by rebels in insurrection
against that government, and in view
of the fact that the existing regime in
Mexico cannot protect American citi-
zens' from raids across the border, it
lis both necessary and right for our
government to furnish the necessary
protection. However, l believe that
this can be done without interven-
ton, and l look to the president to
lead us in the right way"

WOMEN ORGANIZE Y
TO MARKET EGGS
COOPERATIVE GROUPS FOR
SELLING POULTRY PRODUCTS
FORMED IN SOUTH.

Farm women in number of South
aged by the demonstration agents to
form cooperative egg-selling associa-
tons, the object of which is to secure
better prices for poultry products,
says the Weekly News Letter of the
federal department of agriculture.
The members of these associations
send all their eggs freshly gathered
to one member, who tests and grades
them carefully, packs them attract
lively, and sees to their shipment and
sale. The product of the group is
sold comparatively, the members pay
ing their proportion of the cost Of
handling and sharing in the profits.
The agents representing the fed
eral department and the state college
help these groups by giving their
members instructions in shipping by
parcel post and express, in grading
and testing eggs, and in choice Of
containers. In several of these groups
the members have come to appreciate
the value of a standardized product
and. therefore; have agreed to raise
the same breed of chickens and thus
produce the same grade of eggs.
The following report from Missis-
sippi, where there are so cooperative
egg-selling associations and two
junior poultry clubs, is typical of the
work in the other Southern states:
An association with a packing CEN
ter at Centerville has a membership
of II. A secretary-manager is paid
IL cents per dozen to do the pack
ing. which is done in an old school
building. This club has sold more
than $500 worth of eggs at prices
substantially above the local market
quotations.
Another association, with pack
ing center at Woodville, has a MEM
bership of 20. They pay their secre-
tary-manager 2 cents per dozen. The
grading and packing are done by
committees of three, which serve in
turn. A local railroad agent has
allowed the members to use part of
the depot for packing room. The
association has an electric tester and
scales for weighing the eggs. Under
ftc ctopdo ri ~ dooc mt occopt oUUc
weighing less than 2 ounces each.
The first shipments were made in
commercial cases, but the eggs are
now packed in one-dozen cartons and
shipped in the cases. This associa-
ton separates fertile from infertile
eggs and secures premium for the
infertile ones. They have sold 1915
dozen at an average price of "a cents.

MEDICINAL PLANT INDUSTRY
WOULD THRIVE HEREAB0UTS
Washington and Oregon. Advised to
Seize Opportunity to Capture
Part of Worlds Trade.

UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON.
Scientists in the faculty can find
no good reason why Washington and
Oregon should not raid the drug plant
and herb market and run of. within
a few years, with a goodly share of
the worlds business.
The structure placed upon the Eu-
ropean supply by the war has boosted
prices enormously, and Eastern drug
manufacturers, heretofore uninter-
ested in the Northwest's facilities for
growing medicinal plants, would well
come a show of activity. Nearly all
drug plaAts may be grown in this
section, and the university faculties
in botany, pharmacy and chemistry
are willing to advise and assist per-
sons interested in the industry.
