The Eternal "Why?"
(Rutland Herald. J

This time it refers to apples. 1t
might equally as well be almost any
other product of the farm or orchard.
Mcintosh Reds can be purchased at re
tail in Rutland stores at from 20 to
Sl.25 peck-in other words from So
to 50 a bushel! Why?
These apples are ungraded and I'M
packed. They are orchard run-good,
bad and Indifferent, windfalls, bruised.
wormy and scabby In many states
some of them could not be offered for
sale at all. The best are good eating.
The wOrst-well, it would be charity
to forget: Yet they command fancy
prices. Why?
Unless the Herald is badly mistaken,
So to So a bushel for early apples is a
pretty big price-particularly in year
of big apple crops and in a state where,
it is declared, growers are letting ap-
not pay them to pick them. Evidently
the grower is getting a very small share
of the So to So that the consumer must
pay for his apples. Why?
For 50 the consumer should get a
bushel of the finest apples that ever were
grOwn-East or West. Why should
the consumer be forced to pay an ex-
orbitant price for culls when the grower
can't afford to pick and market his best
stuff because of the low price offered
him? This does not refer to the scien-
tific owners of modern orchards in the
state but to the rank and file of the
growers-the man who could sell a few
barrels if he could get a reasonable
price. The spread between the price to
the grower and the price to the con-
sumner is far too great. Why?
The people want apples. The apples
are here. The profteer should not be

Two newspaper editors are candidates
for seats in the Vermont legislature this
fall. They are Otto r. Bennett of Man
chester and Ed. J. Tyler of EnOsburg
Falls Just how much good an editor
may do a legislature is an open ques-
ton. but one thing certain is that the
editor that goes to Montpelier for a
term viii come home knowing more
about Vermont affairs than he ever did
before. Even the editor of the Bellows
Falls Times has been almost a reason
able being after three months at the
state house. Without saying anything
that might be considered personal, it
would be a good thing if the readers of
the Rutland Herald and Brattleboro Re
former could get their editors into the
legislature for q term apiece.-Benning-
ton Banner.
This is an obvious attempt to renew
a controversy on which The Reformer
and the Banner hold directly opposite
opinions, ours being that newspaper men
can accomplish a great deal more for
their communities and the state as a
whole by attending to the business of
running their newspapers than by becom-
ing candidates for political office.

Way for Settlement of
Wage Dispute.

Washington, Feb. 17.-Upon the
signing today of the final compro-
mise agreement on legislation for
the return of the railroads to pri-
vate ownership two movements
for the settlement of the railway
wage dispute will be under way.
Coincident with the announcement
that the house and senate conferees
had practically redrafted the labor
section Of the bill so as to provide
for compulsory arbitration, Director
General Hines sent a request to
President Cuyler of the Association
of Railway Executives for a con-
ference here with him of a COM
mittee representing the railroad
corporation heads to discuss Presi-
dent Wilson's proposal for the Gre
alton Of a joint commission to hear
tie union employees demands.
Redraft Legislation.
The railroad legislation as
agreed to yesterday was redrafted
SO as to meet such labor troubles
as developed recently through the
wage demands of the employees
brotherhoods. Instead of a federal
board Of five appointed by the pres
ident to deal finally with wage dis
putes the provision would create a
board of nine members whose deci-
sions would be binding. This com
mission or board also would be ap-
pointed by the president, but would
consist Of three members repre-
sending each the employees, and the
executives and three representing
the public.
