nishes power for a number of local
industries.
The company recently purchased
the lighting plant formerly owned by
Gordon Gardner and the consolida>
tion gives the new company 80 much
additional lighting that it has been
found necessary to enlarge their light
plant although" they now own three
engines, two 25-horsepOwer and one
50-horsepower.
In making their plans sufficient to
care for all of the present and fu.
ture needs of New England in the
way of electric light and power they
have decided to buy q new steam en-
CINE of 250-horsepower Of the COrliss
type, which is also large enough to
furnish the power for the flour mill.
Successful Manager.
The directors have investigated the
mill business thoroughly and have de-
.cided that the first thing needed at
ter the mill is built is q man who Is
capable OF handling the business and
who is a practical and successful mil.
Ter. They feel that they have found
such man in E. E. Shines, who for
the past II years has successfully
manager a 400-barrel capacity mill
with high line electric lighting plant
in connection for the Campbell Mill
ing Co. in Minnesota.
MIR. Shines has been in New England
twice and is so favorably, impressed
with the possibilities here that he
has become member Of the company
and has accepted the office of vice
president and manager Of the mill
He will move to New England with
his wife and one child about the first
of June.
The new mill manager is the man
who made the Golden Palace brand
of flour famous. This flour Is sold
not only in this country but abroad.
It is sold on its own merits. Mr..
Shines has made good as a miller and
New England is to have the full bene>
fit Of his II years of experience. He
is very capable business man and
is to be placed in complete control
of this part of the big new industry
which will do away with the necessity
of shipping grain to Minneapolis and
paying the freight on both the grain
and the flour.
'We figured that the first thing that
we needed to make the New England
mill success was to get the right
man to manage, and in Mr.. Shines we

Mill viii Benefit People.
For, years the farmers and bust'
ness men Of this section have been
talking of the advantages that would
be derived from having q mill estab.
lished in New England.
It will mean a big thing to all kinds
Of business in New England from the
fact that 1t will bring farmers to New
England who have been going to 9th.
er towns Soon they will be able to
sell here on an exchange basis. They
can 90 back to the old plan of haul
ing their grain to mill and hauling
back their own flour.
Farmers will always be able to buy
the ground feed for their cattle and
hogs
The new industry will furnish EN-.
plpopyment for about 10 men on each
shift and when there is grain in the
country the mill will be operated both
day and night and SO about 20 men
will be needed to keep the plant in
operation.
The new light plant will furnish the
very best Of service night and day
with much power to spare to run the
motors for all other industries in New
England both now and in the future.

The site that is sought would be
an excellent location for q, city heat
ing plant should the company decide
to furnish heat for the business dis
trict Of the town and the runor is
current that such plans are being
made. There are many other improve
ments that are sure to come to New
England through this big new industry
but the directors of the company are
more for doing things than talking
about things that are to be done and
no information can be gotten about
further plans at the present time.
A big thing Is coming to New Eng.
land. The new 2O9barrel flour milk
the new lighting system with 250-
horsepower steam engine, the two big
buildings, and the machinery and
other Improvements, which will cost
when completed about $4,000, will
mean much to this city and its future.

FINE BUSINESS

Du Pont & Co., the big powder makers, have
declared "a Red Cross dividend" of 2 per cent,
$1,177,O84, on the common stock. There is moth
ing to compel the stockholders to hand over the
money to the Red Cross, but the corporation has
done the right thing and set fine example
BY the way, number of corporations acted
wisely, during the late Liberty loan campaign,
by paying their extra dividends in Liberty bonds
and war savings stamps. This is policy that
can be continued during the war, since the bonds
can always be had. The fellow not content, nay,
glad, to take his extras in Liberty bonds, must
have soul like an over-roasted peanut. u

"a CONGRESSIONAL SUPERSTITION

... "a CONGRESSIONAL SUPERSTITION
NJ. What is the trouble with congress-, anyway,
that it balks at an increase in war taxes at
time like tlis-a time when all America is dead
Get: for the war; time when we have shown our
earnestness by over subscribing Third Liberty
loan? Why is congress afraid to take up tax
legislation now; afraid to go home to the. people
on the eve Of an, election with a necessary new
tax law voted for? For we know that the old
one, won't do
/ 4 That they are afraid has been clearly indi-
Gated by Washington dispatches, reporting the
views Of Representative Kitchin and Senator Sim
mons on the spirit Of their respective bodies
two houses Of congress.
sc Do men in congress actually believe that
Americans are counting their dollars against their
men? Do they think that we are afraid to meet
the issue as it really is-as every mothers son,
and every mothers daughter, knows1t is? Do
they think that we are children; that we can
not see? i3s9..
81 There is an old superstition in congress, that
although it may be on its last legs, is still stand
ing. It is to the effect that tax legislation on
the eve Of an election is bad politics.
The sooner the superstition is forgotten the
better. The wise ones are going to know the
truth. They are going to know that the right
kind of tax legislation is the best possible poll
tics. This in spite of the fact that a few big
interests may be hit.
Il The right kind Of tax legislation means this:
taxation aimed at war profits and swollen incomes.
These are the things that get under the hide of
every. American. They are the only things that
set him wondering When he buys Liberty
bond he may know he is making an investment.
But when he contributes to a war charity" So
]. called he is dubious. He wonders what the fel-
lows with the big incomes are contributing to
match him along lines Of war duty"
Our next tax bill should be whole lot more
carefully thought out than the present abortion.
It should really strike the targets aimed at, not
scatter around all over the lot like funnel
mouthed blunder buss. Maybe it shouldn't be
passed in hurry. -
4 But congress ought at least to be at work on
it. And congressman and senator's, if they want
their seats back again, should be able to tell the
people truthfully that they are working and
along what lines they are working.
