PRESS COMMENT.
Canning Industries in Vermont.

The Free Press which has been seeking
to promote the production of fruit,
cereal, and vegetables for canning pur-
poses in Vermont, notes with gratihca-
ton the following editorial paragraph
in the Brattleboro Phoenix:
"The corn canning industry in this
State is looking up, also. H. c. Baxter
& Brother of Brunswick. Me-, who oper-
ate the canning establishments in
Brattleboro, Westminster and Windsor,
have closed their factory in Cornish, Me-,
and the machinery will be moved to
Bradford, VT, where the firm recently
bought tract of land for the purpose
of building a large factory in the spring"
In view of the superior quality and
flavor of Vermont fruit, vegetables and
corn we have been unable to understand
why most of our grocers should be sell
ing goods canned in other States. The
action OF the concern in question in start
ing canning industry in Bradford is a
step in the right direction and we hope
other localities may soon pront in like
manner.
We wish in this connection that the
consumers of Vermont would call on
their grocer for goods canned in this
State. We would like also to ask, if it is
true that the products of the concerns in
Vermont named are put up in cans
labelled as Name product, and if so il
it is not time to call halt Burlington
Free Press.

Long Service Of Teachers.

Three teachers in the St. Johnsbury
public schools have taught more than
seventy terms of school there, while an
other teacher has served the public fifty
terms. 1t would be interesting informa-
ton to place along with this statement
of long, and presumably efficient, service
just how much was the proportion of in
crease in salaries as the teachers pro-
crossed in experience and capability to
teach young children, up to, of course,
that stage when their best service has
been done. If the teachers were not
given handsome recognition in the
shape of increased salaries, it is no credit
to them that they remained teaching in
ST. Johnsbury and it is certainly less of a
credit to the town which hired them for
so many years. In other lines of work.
it is decided that as the workman ad-
vances IN experience he deserves better
pay for his services. because he is better
able to bring increased returns to his en-
ployer; and the same rule should apply
to the teaching profession. Perhaps St.
Johnsbury has followed the system of in
creasing the salaries of its teachers in
this manner. We hope so. at any rate;
likewise many other communities in YER
mont, for thereby is set up an incentive
for strong teachers to remain in their
present positions.-[ Barre Times.

More Mentioning.
tinonv

Since Charles w. Gates has announced
he will not become candidate for gov
ernor some people who were anxious for
man of his stamp have been mentioning
names of others for the position. T. D.
Goodall of Nottingham, one of the
strong men in several legislatures in a
letter to the Phoenix says draft Frank l..
Greene. If he will not serve draft John
Nd. Thomas of Middlebury or Frank c..
Partridge of Proctor or, if necessary
break the mountain rule and take Joseph
A. DeBoer of Montpelier.
This indicates that the time for men,
tioning has not expired so we would
suggest for lieutenant governor Luther
B. Johnson of Randolph, editor of the
Herald and News. Mr.. Johnson is in the
prime of life, a successful man in business,
correct in his judgments, independent in
his ideas and thoroughly acquainted
with the sentiment of Vermonters and
legislative methods. Probably he has
had no aspirations for the place but we
can draft him and he will add much
strength to a state ticket chosen for its
merits rather than its personal desires.
What say you brethren?

COMMUNICATIONS.
Voter Advocates Charles Owen for
Road Commissioner.

To the Editor of the CALIFORNIAN:
have been asked by so many people
the question, who is Charles Owen, the
man who has been nominated for road
commissioner for the town of ST. Johns
bury? that l am glad to reply through
the courtesy of the CALIFORNIAN. Let
me say that Mr.. Owen knows absolute
~ nothing of this article. and that he did
not seek the Office. In fact to my knowl-
edge he was coaxed on all sides before he
consented to run. He always shrinks
from publicity. but enters heart and soul
into all entrusted to his care. He is not
an experiment, he is an established road
builder; was road commissioner for
number of years in Waterford, where he
gained an enviable reputation; was
chosen last year by the County commits
sioner to lay out the state road money for
this town, which he did in a highly
acceptable manner, at one half the ordi-
nary expense. His election will mean
better roads from the start, and in five
years time an improvement that will be a
pleasant surprise to every townsman.
Very respectfully submitted,
VOTER.

al New Name surgested. .

There are still but two candidates for
the nomination, flor the governorship0
Messrs. Mead and Fleetwood. The de-
cision of Messrs. Merrill and Gates not to
enter may pave the way to the candidacy
of another Franklin county man who
has been talked quietly in various parts of
the state for some time. 1t would not
be the strangest thing if the nomination
should go to Frank L. Greene, editor
of the ST. Adams Messenger. The worst
stumbling block would be to get him to
run. He has no taste or liking for active
politics, and is no selfseeker, but he has
all the elements of strength for a popu-
lar candidate and if elected would give
the state an honest, fearless and progress
sive administration. If he would but say
the word, hundreds and thousands of his
friends all over Vermont would rally for
him and send him in fying.-[ Randolph

tons. Living here and interested in this
line of work are J. w. Titcomb and E. N.
Carter both of them fish cu1turists of
national recognition. These men are
ready to contribute time and knowledge
to this work. With the streams there
are in this vicinity and such able men in
terested in their development there should
be most cordial response to the invita-
ton to organize.
Another thing to be remembered is that
the hunters of Caledonia county contrib
uted last fall large sum to the state
treasury which is to be used for the bet
ter enforcement of fish and game laws.
1t is up to the people of the county to
say whether this money shall be spent in
some distant section of the state or in
the section from which it was contribu-
ted. The best way to secure our share of
this state fund is to organize in way
that will demonstrate to the authorities
that we are ready to cooperate with
them in the development of our natural
resources.
IT an effective organization is made it
will be surprising if it does not attempt
a still broader work. The development
of good fishing will be sure to interest
the members in the development of the
habitations of fish and game. With
good attractions created here in natural
advantages the development of proper
means of reaching them in the way of
good roads, attractive farms and stop
ping places will follow. So to the people
of Caledonia county comes an opportun-
ity to become leaders in the building up
of Vermont. An appeal is made to all to
demonstrate themselves worthy of this
opportunity and to be present at the
meeting Friday and start the move with
force that will push it on to success.

Regulate Expert Evidence.

The attention of the legal and medical
professions of Vermont is called to bill
now before the Massachusetts, 1egis1a-
ture which provides that judge shall
not charge juries with respect to mat
tiers of fact, but he may state the testi-
mony and the law; provided, however,
that with respect to expert evidence the
courts shall have the same power in
charging juries that they had according
to common law.
At committee hearing on the bill it
was found that the lawyers and physi-
clans of Massachusetts were generally in
favor of the bill. Moorfeld Storey, one
of the best known lawyers of New Eng
land, speaking on the bill said
The truth is we have got to do some
thing to redeem the law from disrepute.
All that the law undertakes to do is to
afford an impartial tribunal but unhap-
PLY members of our profession regard a
lawsuit as matter of distinction. Our
judicial force is enormously less in pro-
portion than that of England, while we
deal with the same class OF cases. 1t
seems absurd that the oneimpartial man
guide them as he should.
DIR. George w. Gay, representing the
Massachusetts medical society, said that
the matter Of medical testimony is in a
demoralized condition; so much so that
many of the leading physicians will not
GO into court. They feel that as such ex-
pert testimony is now given it is simply
matter of purchase, and a lawyer does
not want evidence that he cannot work
up for his client.
There is no such thing as proper medi-
cal expert testimony today, said the doc
tor.
DR.. A., who ought to be in the state
prison, stands on the same basis before
the Jury as to his medical testimony as
DIR. B., who is a reputable physician.
The medical profession are very earnest
on this subject. and if vote of the 5000
physicians of Massachusetts could be
taken believe it would be almost unani-
mously in favor of this bill.
The conditions in Vermont are fully as
unsatisfactory as<they are in Massachu-
sets and the introduction ofexpert testi-
mony as it is now conducted does no
credit to the lawyer, physicians or courts
of the state. Cannot Vermont in addi-
ton to providing for fair trial institute
some legislation which will improve the
present conditions respecting expert tes-

A County Opportunity.

Elsewhere in this paper is published a
notice of a meeting to be held In St.
Johnsbury on Friday afternoon of this
week for the purpose of discussing plans
and organizing county improvement
league whose first work will be the svs-
tematic stocking of good trout streams
in this vicinity with lingering trout Sc
cured from the United States government
hatcheries. To us it seems a most COM
mendable object and one, if properly sup
ported. which will greatly add to the
natural attractions of this section. The
organization will be made broad in it's
scope and is intended to give the people
of the smaller towns of the county as
much consideration as those of the larg-
er towns. Those who have been active
In stocking certain streams in the past
have seen good results of their work and
are convinced that it ought to be carried
on in the future by an organization that
can be systematic and persistent in its eff
forts. The correctness of their view is so
evident that it does not need further
comment.

The Central Committee urges the
adoption of the following plans to inter-
est men in the Burlington Convention.
Have one or two layrnen and the pas
tor speak about it during morning ser
vice next Sunday.
Have laymen, who cannot go to Bur-
lington, assume charge of the services on
Sunday. March 6,-reading two of the
pastors best sermons, or selecting from
the many famous sermons now in print.
This will enable the pastor to go to Bur-
lington.
Form climbs of ten who will give 81 90
each, and twenty so cents each that
men may go to Burlington. Expense
from ST. Johnsbury, including registra-
tion and banquet will be about $500.
These plans have accomplished results
elsewhere. They can bring things to
pass here in Caledonia county. They
will perhaps cause men to go to Burling-
ton to escape reading the service March
6. They will impress the home church
with the deep significance of this Lay
mems Movement, i. e., to get men busy
in and for the church.
A splendid opportunity to strengthen
and make more vital the Church of
Christ is at hand.
Are we men going to allow it to pass
unused? Not if we are men. 1t is up to
the men. Let's get busy and hustle
go ye."

Explanation of Town Farm Account.

3 EAp1dudtiUH VI 1OWu TdIm ACSOuuts
The question has been asked what has
become of the receipts of the town farm.
The cash received by the selectmen
amounts to less than 5000. We confess
this seems small To this should be
added 80 tons of hay which is worth at
least $3.50. This with green feed sold
for which pay has not been collected
should show to the credit of the farm.
Now then, the account stands like this:
Cash turned into treasury, $1e1 90
Green teed sold and uncOIlected, 40 90
Hay cut on farm at SIS per ton, $50 90
Total receipts of farm, 1851 90
PAID.
For labor and seed, etc, to A. L.
Douglass:
To sowing piece of barley, $50 90
cutting hay, 60 90
in fall, 20 90
Total expense, $11O 90
Net profit of farm, 1871 90
Now you ask what has become of the
hay. To this we will say that about
one-half is now at the farm. The other
half has been fed to the town highway
team and cows kept on the farm to fur
nish milk for the overseer's family at the
farm.
