Editors and Public Office.

Brother l.. +. Thayer, of the Norris

honor of the longest experience in the
Vermont newspaper profession and prob
ably the most energetic during that ex-
pCrlence, congratulates the writer on his
defeat for the nomination for representa-

10 the job. We will, that was settled
last Tuesday. He also concludes that we
viii be far better off financially. That
was duly considered. and had we been
successful. we figured the experience
would have repaid us in service we might
have rendered in our business by a more
intimate knowledge of public affairs
HaFdwick Gazette.
Brother Appolt is right No one can
possibly profit more from legislative ex-
perience or public service, of any kind
than the editor. He gets an angle of
things that has never come to him before.
lie sees the first time from inside He
learns things that he never knew before
and for the first time he stands not simply
AS a critic but as a responsible part of
the machine This does not mean that
he will or should be committed thence
forth TO the things that are but he can
speak with some assurance of knowledge
and consciousness of what takes place
within the mechanism. He will be apt
to be a kinder critic and a wiser one
The editor makes a poor candidate for
office, but many a community would
profit itself if it would give him chance
TO see. and know. and learn. In return
his experience and information and sense
of responsibility would be enlarged, to
the benefit of his readers.

Milk contests conducted by the United
States department of agriculture have
been highly beneficial in a number of
western states, sufficiently so to give the
cue to local authorities where communi-
ties are interested in the character of
their milk supply.
The movement is so simple it can be
boards or the authorized health doctor of
any village.
Samples of milk supplied by differ
ent dealers are taken occasionally with
out warning. bacterial counts are taken,
and the milk scores are then made pub
lie in the columns of the home town
newspaper.
1t is found milk dealers do not like
to be surprised and dirty milk found on
their wagons. particularly when they
know the results are to be published
We learn that in Long Beach, Cal.
the average bacterial count in the first
contest was 11S,23S. In the last count
figured 71.56 and after the last contest
the scale was raised to 90.67. 1t was
the same in Los Angeles and Riverside
1t is quite evident that as soon as the
surprise milk contests become a recog
nized factor milk dealers invariably i'm
prove their milk supply.
This means much to the child life of
the nation.
The country generally would be better
off If more government money were
spent in work of this character and less
in political log rolling
This newspaper has persistently stood
for the expenditure of government mon
les both locally and in the state and ma
ton aimed at lowering the death rate.
The peoples monies should be spent
for their good. Advertising is the an
swer.

DELAYED DISARMAMENT.

1t develops that the disarmament
treaty negotiated at Washington last
winter, to the very great satisfaction of
/ the American people, is as yet far from
being effective. Most Americans. per
haps, have assumed that all of the sigma
tory nations have fulfilled their part of
the obligation. As matter of fact,
two of them, France and Italy. have not
! begun to do so. They have not even rat
flied the treaty
The United States, Great Britain and
Japan appear to have gone ahead, in
good faith, reducing their naval tonnage
according to agreement. At least, they
have all made considerable progress in
that direction. But France and Italy
have continued delaying the matter on
one pretext and another, and are now
justifying their delay by pointing to the
perils in the Near East situation.
That excuse is not convincing. 1t is
the British navy that is bearing the
brunt of the Turkish menace, not the
French or Italian navy, and Britain
seems to think herself quite capable of
handling the situation without using
warships marked by the treaty for the
scrap heap. The Turks and their neigh
bors have no navies.
Moreover, the way to disarm is to dis
arm. There will never be any real dis
armament unless a start is made. and
this is as good a time to start as there
has ever been or ever will be.

THE KAIsER,s MARRIAGE.

The date has been set for the wedding
of the former kaiser. Since that indi-
vidual has been relegated to the status
of less than a private citizen, the amount
of attention paid to his new venture is
rather surprising. Doubtless this fiat
tiers his vanity.
As a matter of fact, this marriage is
of the utmost Importance save for one
thing. 1t is another indication of the
humiliating failure of those who won
the war to retain the fruits of victory.
There is hardly a home in all the civ
ilized world which has not been upset
socially and financially, grief-stricken.
or in some other way adversely affected.
and which does not still suffer to some
degree, because of the war which Will
liam of Germany started The nations
which comprise these homes are far re-
moved from peace and order.
And in the midst of all the rocking
turmoil for which he is primarily re-
sponsible, the head of the Hohenzollerns
calmly weds his young bride and estab-
fishes new home life in which to pass
his remaining days more completely sur
rounded by comfort and luxury.

In the Days News.

Vice Admiral Andrew L. Long, Z. S.
N, who has gone to Constantinople TO
direct the operations of the United
States naval force in Turkish waters, is
regarded as an ideal man for such an
assignment. since his past service in
the navy has included considerable ex-
perience in the field of diplomacy. A ma
tive of North Carolina, Admiral Long
began his career in 1887 with mis- gradu-
alton from Annapolis. In the war with
Spain he saw active service on the
cruiser Minneapolis. Since then, in adj
dition TO the routine duties of his calling
he has served as naval attache mt Rome
and Vienna. From 1905 to 1907 he was
i'm command of the presidential yacht
Mayfl and in 1909 he was on duty
at the Office of naval intelligence. In the
early period of the World war he was
SUPERINTENDENT of naval auxiliaries.
Then he commanded in turn the battle

The Reformer is inclined to agree with
the Rutland Herald that the state con-
vention made a mistake in passing over
the Mason Stone plan for a program
committee to make a survey of state con-
ditions and report Il schedule of neces-
sary legislation. The idea of outlining
the program at a Republican caucus
after the legislature begins doesn't meet
the situation. in our opinion, although
it probably suits the whims of the party
