CITIES EXPANDING AREAS.

Rivalry between cities in the United States api abroad has been of the divertng topics for gen eraticns. We have the rivalry between New York an London for first place among the cities of the world Then have had the rivalry between San Francisco and Los Angeles for the last years Notable rival ries of the past have been those between Chicago an St. Louis, Cleveland and Cincinnati, St. Paul an l Minneapolis, Seattle and Tacoma etc. etc.
 Most of the old rivalries been settled by one Of the towns finally dstancng the other. Eowever, that between the large metropolises in year. has been determined by the rapidity with which ter ritory is annexed The fact is that if the great tropolises should not extend their boundaries the' population growth would be nil. The rapid transt systems and automobiles have made city expansion easy and growing business has demanded such e.- tenion Of areas that the old centers of population have ceased to Many of them have already 7 begun to decrease in population New York, for in stance if confined to the of the city it generation ago, would not be the first city of the United States. In fact the population of Manhattaa Island, which for many years constituted the City cf New York; is actually decreasing In 1910 it's popu~ lation was 2331542. In 1920 it 2.2s4, 1o3. Tha decrease was than 47,000. The growth of New York in the last twenty years has been mostly ia the outlying Boronghs.

NEVER MAKE WEATHER PROPHECIES.

Alaska s not the only country where it is futile mako her predietions advance of the fore casts of the Weather Bureau.B Experience has shown that you nevef tell. Every now and again there is where the powers that control the weather not only do not give any indication of their purpose in advance but they show such Shocking disregard for precedent that lose confidence in that.
 England has been noted for her cool climate, for example, since the memory of runneth not to the contrary. With the fall there usually come damp winds off the ocean, and top coats and woolens are the rule in October However this year in that staid old island which has been such stickler for preced- ents the weather gods have been cutting curious capers.

If former Emperor Charles fares well in his second attempt to regain portion of the old Austro- Hungarian Empire he did in his first attempt he will be lucky. He gained throne nor acquired control of any territory in his first tryout, but he saved his neck He was permitted to leave the country in peace. and was given his lberty-save only that he was directed not to come back. It is a fools errand he has uEderaken for he ought to know that he will be permitted rule again at either Vienna or Budapest M r,ftn

Who Will Exploit Russia?
(Paris Figaro. ]


 A very disquieting article appeared in Le Matn yesterday in which it stated that England and Germany are planning agreement enter into a concerted exploitation of Soviet Russia. Though the truth of this is difficult to control it is neces sarily based entirely on fiction. Krassin has number of visits to London, while Germany has kept her agents in Russia from the very beginning of the present regime What would be the plan? In ex- change for imports, England would get central Rus sia, Germany southern Russia-and Japan would ba satisfied with Siberia Of course, Germany denied any such agreement but know how to appreciate her denials As to England, it is incontestable fact that Lloyd George has been flirting with the Soyiets for over two years. And that the Com munist powers have been forced transact business with some one, with whom would they naturally make a beginning? With us, who, the basis of elementary morals, excommuncated them, or with England and Germany who, in the interests of their own commercial development, have lost an op- portunty to smile upon them? The situation creates new danger to prosperity and influence. Our Government cannot afford to forget that twenty billion of it's francs have been swallowed up in Rus sia The American Government, the other hand Is not going to allow the immense Russian question to be settled without its consent And in all of this including both charity and politics. who is to be recognized in Russia? Our former allies or our present enemies?

Fairfield

As the time Is drawing near for the change in local postofffce mana cement much speculation is being given to what possible changes the new post master might make. Under the able management of Postmaster VIII O. Burr the best of attention was given to townsfolk having occasion to patronize the postal service and, as many people say. 1t Is impossible to see where Improvements can be in augerated under the new postmaster, but as Is usual in such occurrences, some new rules usually are put into effect. As the present assistants are all under civil service rules and have at all times conducted affairs in prop CT way, hardly any changes will be made dn the personnel as now made up. At any rate, the new postmaster MT. Donaldson, will probably inauger- ate a change in the working method of affairs and it Is hoped, if such Is the case, the accommodation of those having occasion to use the service will be his first consideration.
 If present plans are carried out, Fairfield will be given a full measure this coming winter, of movie picture service. What with the present movie picture theatre now being com ducted in Perry's block and the con. templated changes intended by the local Red Men along the lines ot screen entertainment and the new theatre on dts way to completion by Mir. Flint. the people of this town should have no reason for complain ing as to lack of entertainment.
