Stay in the city is Uncle Sans latest
campaign slogan as contrasted with the
popular back to the farm movement.
Testifying before the House committee
on agriculture, w. ]. Spillman, chief of
the office of farm management, has this
to say eve do not want to induce peo-
pie to go back to the farm. We believe
it is a mistaken idea to induce city peo-
pie to go back to the farm-people who
have more to learn than would the farm
err who goes to the city to be lawyer
or banker The idea of getting city
people to go out on the farm, from the
viewpoint of the office of farm manage
ment, is a serious error"
Evidently Mr.. Spillman's office is try
ing to help the farmer out while giving
advice to city folks TO stay where they
are. Excerpts from the testimony of the
office head are well calculated to make
any city dweller abandon his longings
for the day when he can retire to the
farm. The witness gives as the reason
why the average farmer has such small
annual income the fact that he spends
his time in growing the things he Just
breaks even on. The absence of cost ac-
counting is cited as second reason and
third that the average American farm
is too small An influx of city people.

Contingent upon the elimination o.
waste, Postmaster General Burlesor
plans to recommend to Congress next
year that letter postage be reduced tc
one cent. In making this pronouncement
he urges that ''users of the second class
mail privilege pay fair part of what
that service is worth a contamination
that would also enable the government,
as he says, to pay railroads an adequate
compensation for carrying the mails.
Users of the second class post cannot be
criticized for utilizing that very convent
ent utility so long as they are guilty of
no infractons, and until the postoffice
department brings about a reclassifica
ton Of mail matter, the alleged unfair
division of postal burden will continue
As for the penny post, if one desires to
mail letter after the stamp store closes,
a one-cent stamp is quite as far out OF
reach as the two-cent stamp.

For Senator Governor C. w. Gates.

As announced in the news columns
Tuesday morning, Gov. Charles w. Gates
has thrown his hat into the ring in the
senatorial contest in Vermont. This
makes the announced candidates Sen. c.
c. w. Gates.
The CALIFORNIAN believes c. w. Gates
should be elected to that position and
will advocate to the best of it's ability
his nominate in the primaries to be
held in September. Mr.. Gates becomes a
candidate at the request of many Yer
monters who wish to see a younger man
than either of the present senators begin
a career in the United States Senate,
and give the best years of his life to
serving Vermont in that distinguished
body. Both of Nermont's senators are
old men who have passed the zenith of
their lives. To retain both there means
two Vermont sunsets rather than one in
the Senate. The state should have a
man in that body building up standing
for himself and his state while Senator
Dillingham; is filing out his term of serv
ice
Gov. Gates appeal to the voters is
simply this: 81 shall appreciate the sup
port of all those who have confidence in
my integrity of purpose, and who feel
that |, if nominated and elected would
creditably represent Vermont in the
United States Senate" There will be no
advertising, no soliciting and no expendi
ture of money on the part of Gov. Gates.
He will give diligent attention to his du-
ties as governor and let the people make
their own choice for this important office
We are glad to support for this high of
fee man who stands on his integrity
rather than his pocketbook.
Gov. Gates has made good in all the
public positions he has accepted. He has
bult for himself more than state repu,
tation in the development of Vermont
He has served the state
and ably as governor, saving
the state from unfair deals without max
ing noise or charging his opponents
with everything but decency and virtue.
This record gives us confidence that he
would creditably represent Vermont IN
the United States Senate"
Gov. Gates entry to the contest gives
the people of Vermont an opportunity |
10 vote for man who refuses to use
money to influence the voters, a man |
who has always lived in and worked for /
Vermont. man who has great ability in
men and great efficiency in ac-
the tasks to which he sets
as hand. man whose integrity cannot

ative Of the newer and better political

An Eye Test.

Most people believe that they see the
same with both eyes. That this is not
the case one can easily convince him
self by the following simple expert
ment: Cover one of the eyes with a
hand or bandage and let the expert
menter attempt to snuff out a candle
suddenly placed within a few feet of
him. He will almost invariably miss
the fame, either overreaching, under
reaching or putting the fingers too far
TO the right or left of the fame. With
both eyes normal and open the accom-
mediation for distance and direction is
instantaneous.

The recent shipment of S40o000,000
of gold into this country doubtless means
another jump in prices, for as long as
gold continues to flow into the United
States as return for the excess OF our
exports over our imports just so long
must prices keep up proportonately 1t
is foolhardy to labor under the impress
sion that we are becoming rich, as will
become evident when the great war has
stopped and all our gold begins to flow
back to the other countries. Most of us
in the days work are unconscious of the
constant process that is going on to keep
the international trade sheet balanced.
Prices will continue to remain higher
than they were at the beginning OF the
war until the supply of gold is again
evenly distributed among the countries.
The shame of it all is that wages, though
indirectly influenced by rise in prices,
do not keep pace with it.

100 feet. For a great many years thous
ands of people have annually visited
Niagara and stood inspired as they gazed
at the Horseshoe and American falls
When the falls are no more they will
not likely be attracted there to view the
massive generators, the big power plants
and the dams that will divert the flow
of the streams. Niagara already has its
share of such plants and there are enough
others elsewhere so that no immediate
demand for additional power is likely
from the industrial work. Why sacrifice
one of the natural wonders of this CON
tinent and erect in its stead monument
to our increasing commercial greed?
