We congratulate the people

We congratulate the people of
Newport and West Derby villages on
the prospect of becoming incorporat-
ed as the City Of Newport. If this is
accomplished the City Of Newport
will become the eighth city in the
state of Vermont This is a distinc-
ton worthy of note. There is an
other feature that will place the city
of Newport in the first rank of YER
mont cities. Section forty of the
charter gives the citizens the power
of appointing q city manager who
need not be voter or resident of the
city. No other town or city in the
state has tried a city manager and
new Newport may become state
leader in this respect.

ScctiOnalism Above Patriotism.

The senate naval committee has
approved of the naval appropriation
bill with an amendment by Sen. Poin-
dexter of Washington providing 40
of the additional submersibles au-
thorized should be coast vessels and
10 fleet submarines, half Of each type
to be built on the Pacific coast.
The requirement that half of these
vessels be built on the Pacific coast
is simply a piece of selfish politics
The country either is in serious need
OF the immediate construction of
these vessels or it does not need them
at all. There are no facilities for
constructing such vessels on the Pa
cific coast, and it will take a long
time to get the plans capable Of build
ing them. The senate will betray the
country if it passes such a measure.
Jcsephus Daniels has attempted to
be smart and has not constructed bat
tleships authorized two and three
ySdtS dSO. IIt HAS duluOflL6Q the
construction of these ships at places
totally unprepared for such work and
they are not ready even now to begin
the work. This proposal by Sen.
Poindexter would have the same re-
suit
It is no time to attempt to secure
political pap for any section Of the
country. The nation needs these YES
sells at the earliest minute possible
and congress should provide for thei,
speedy construction. It is disgustins
to think that a man in this hour ot
national need will put sectionalism
ah cad of patriotism.

DDS, the use OF more fish and milk for
food, and cooperation in all COM
munities.
Here is a bit OF interesting infocna-
ton about the distribution of the
price of milk among the different par
ties handling it. The report says
"Of The ten cents paid by the con-
sumner for q quart of milk this win
ter, the farmer gets on an average
about five cents, the railroad about
one-half cent and the distributor
about four and one-half cents. Pro
ducers are now getting about onc-haIf
cent more than last winter. Some who
are selling on scientific butter-fat
basis are getting over one cent more"
-Four and one-half cents a quart
seems pretty large amount to pay
for the distribution of the milk from
the car at the railroad station to the
consumer. This certainly could be
reduced by systematizing the distribu-
ton of milk and have the milk for q
given section distributed by one team
instead Of a dozen teams as is now
DONE
We do not agree with the commits
sion's recommendation that the state
undertake public works to give en-
ployment to the poor in times of in
dustrial depression. The state cannot
afford to maintain people in their
present expensive methods of living.
1t is too expensive and the cost Of
government cannot be kept within
bounds if it attempts such q thing
Curtailment in the use of the more
expensive things of life is the only
thing that will bring this country
safely through this period of the high
cost of living.

Fish and Game Commissioner.

st. Johnsbury and Caledonia county
should take live interest in the selec-
ton of n state fish and game commits
sioner to succeed John W. Titcomb.
This should be first because this coun-
ty has one of the largest and enter.
prising fish and game organizations in
the state-The Caledonia Forest and
Stream club; secondly, because this
county can furnish the best equipped
man available for this important work
in former son of the county, Eben
w. Cobb. now state superintendent of
fisheries in the state of Minnesota.
AR. Cobb was born in the town of
Walden about 3S years ago. While q
young, boy his people moved to ST.
Johnsbury and young Cobb graduated
from the, Union schools and the St
Johnsbury Academy. He then went to
a work at the federal fish hatchery here
and later went to the Green Lake
hatchery in Maine For the past six
Years he has been state superintend-
ent of hatcheries in the state Of Min
nesota, where he has been very sue
cessful and has largely increased the
work Of fish culture there.
To secure Mr.. Cobb as fish and game
commissioner would assure the state
OF the services of an expert and q
man of large practical experience.
That an expert, rather than a politi-
clan, is needed is shown by the re-
ceipts Of the Office during the past
fiscal year, $47,5S0.93 and at the
close of that year there was q balance
of $11,394.8s available for the depart
ment. OF the receipts that year SAT-
00e.12 was from hunting and fishing
licenses. This sum was contributed by
the sportsmen of the state, and they
should have a strong voice in the
selection Of man to handle these
funds.
To secure Mr.. Cobb would bring
back to Vermont one of her sons who
has made success in other fields and
increase the force Of strong, capable
men in control of Vermont business
Only one thing is lacking and that is
q salary that would take him away
from his present position. We believe
that salary Of $4,000 year would
secure him. We believe the people OF
Caledonia county would be doing
themselves credit and the state OF
Vermont a benefit to take hold at
once and secure the appointment OF
Eben W. Cobb state fish and game

Don't Send Them To College

DR.. James L. McConaughey of Dart
mouth is reported to have said be-
fore a body of high school students
that college is frequently a waste of
time and a dissipation Of energy. Such
a remark may not be popular with
the heads of colleges but it undoubt-
eddy is true, because 50 many young
people are sent to college.
A young person desiring to go to
college for the education and train
ing it can give will seldom find it q
waste of time He is not sent to COL
lege but goes to college for pur-
pose. If he is true to his purpose he
can profitably spend his time in col
lege. Too many young people, how
ever, are sent to college because it is
the popular thing to do. because q
college education can be Bought by
wealthy parents the same as other
luxuries for their child. The send
ing of SO many young people of this
class to college has seriously reduced
the value of college training because
it is impossible for any college to
| maintain it's standard of product with
inferior meatrial.
Every young person anxious to go
to college to prepare himself for life
work should go but parents will be
doing the colleges and the country a
beneficial service to refrain from send
ing their children to college,

National Board Of Food Control.

;, A rational board of food control,
with powers to regulate farm labor
conditions and the distribution Of
products by the railroads is being
urged by Joseph Hartigan, commits
siorier of New York's bureau :. Of
weights and measures. This sounds
like radical proposition but con-
tinued speculation in food products
and unreasonable increasing of the
price after they have left the farmers
hands will surely bring some action
OF this nature.
Commissioner Hartigan correctly
states that some of the causes of the
high prices of food are shortage Of
farm labor and the increased cost of
farm machinery and other articles
necessary for production. He sug-
gests the advisability Of bringing farm
labor here from the Philippines. This
suggestion of bringing farm labor in
from other countries is not a pleasant
one. Tilipinos would be unskilled, un-
acclimated and consequently unsatis-
factory.
The bringing of farm laborers here
from other countries would show q
dangerous condition among the
American people. A nation with suf-
ficient land for it's maintenance in
luxury unwilling to produce enough
food supplies for itself has been de-
graded and weakened to dangerous
degree. The decline of Rome was ac-
celebrated by its dependence on slave
labor for all its agricultural products,
and every nation that. became so adj
dicted to luxury it would not support
itself by honest labor has lost its
leadership and influence. With this
history before US we should hate to
see the American people evading the
honorable labor necessary for self
support at a reasonable cost.

II. A. Blake Completes 48 Years Ser

Changes.
ct. A. Blake, Correspondent


The present week closes 4S years
that II. A. Blake has furnished The
Caledonian with the locals from SUIT
ton. The past year has had its
changes by deaths and removals.
Some of the Old residents have passed
away, Silas P. Ball, c. w Willard,
Mrs. O. Il. Curtis, r. Fl. Moore and
others are now with the silent ma
jority. There have been the most
changes in real estate, selling and
buying, of any year for long time.
The main store building in the place
was burned April 20, and there is no
prospect at present of it being re-
built.
The writer is the only one here at
the village who was here 48 years
ago, and he is one of the oldest resi-
dents of the town, having always re-
sided in Sutton. There are older ones
in years in town but there are but
very few left who have resided in
town so many years. Not one in The
neighborhood of younger days on tho
South Ridge is there now, and it Is
SO over nearly the whole town. There
are but one or two who attend church
who did SO As years ago. One Of the
former residents Of the town now liv-
ing in Brooklyn, N. Y, was visiting
here not long since, and told me thai

Congress will end this week with a
large amount Of the miscellaneous legis-
lation proposed uncompleted. The
burning question now seems to be
whether there shall be a special ses-
sion. Unless President Wilson asks
for and receives authority to deal with
the question of war undoubtedly there
will be one. 1t will not be safe to
leave American shipping tied up in
American ports and American citi-
zens to the mercy of German subma-
rines without the body empowered by
the constitution to declare war in ses-
sion.
