Editors Note-After analyzing the
Dunlap ticket platform for its readers
before the document had ever been
made public and then glibly promis
ing that it would appear in the next
Thursday issue OF the News. the
guiding star OF the desiinies OF the
Dunlap ticket failed to publish its
platform as it promised to do. Not in
many moons does The Tribune take
such pleasure in scoop" as it takes
today in presenting to the voters OF
Caldwell the platform of the Dunlap

forgot-to publish.

the hope that personalities
might be kept out of the city
political campaign. With one
single exception, no one in
Caldwell has lifted voice
against any of the candidates.
That exception is the Caldwell
Daily News.
For sheer scurrilousness and
maliciousness. nothing in all
the history of Caldwell can
compare with the contemplate
attack that the News has been
making, day by day, upon DR..
+. NJ. Cole and c. j. Westcott.
The fact that "no one reads
the News" is not a mitigation.
The News has certain circula-
ton, a certain standing.
Just what the object for this
personal attack can be is diff
cult to determine. DIR. Cole, of
all leading citizens of this com
immunity, has, to The Tribune's
certain knowledge, never taken
any part in this campaign. He
was out of town when the Cit
liens ticket was drafted, when
the convention that the News
imagines to have been some
thing approximating ? mid
night murder of public rights,
was held. Not only was he out
of town but The Tribune can
attest that he had absolutely
no part in framing the person
mel of the Citizens ticket or the
platform upon which its candi-
dates seek election. He was
not consulted nor did he ad-
wise.
These are facts and are of
fered simply as a premise for
the deduction that the only
possible criticism that can be
raised against Doctor Cole is
that he has been too active in
civic affairs. Trying to do too
much for the community, gen
erous with his purse and his
time, DR.. Cole seems to have
reaped the inevitable reward.
For the only reward for pub
lie service is the consciousness
of having done his work well.
People are ungrateful. Lincoln
was assassinated. DIR. Cole is
not a Lincoln. But as a fine,
outstanding citizen of the com
munity, he differs only in de
gree. The lesson is identical.
One wonders whence came
the inspiration for this attack.
Does Mr.. Dunlap, a candidate
for mayor, approve the cam
paign policies as outlined IN
the News Do those persons
who are conducting Mr.. Dun
laps campaign approve such
an unwarranted attack upon
an individual whose connection
with the campaign has been
negligiblel
The Tribune sincerely re
grets that personalities have
ever been injected into this
campaign. Only harm can re-
suit from such a fight, however
one-sided it may be, that today
is threatening to remove from
the ranks of those few who are
active in their efforts to build
a community one who has al
ways been in the vanguard of
progress, at least two notable
boosters for Caldwell.
The Tribune sincerely be-
lieves, too, that the political re
action of such a campaign can
not possibly be the end that
such program seems to hold
in hope. In every possible
way, the News has tried to es-
TRANCE the better class of Cald-
we'll voters from the Citizens
ticket. 1t has tried to drag the

City Bankers and Country Conditions
Bankers, IL anybody, are affected
more quickly and more directly than
other business men. A period of agri-
cultural depression Is Immediately no
ticeable In the balances that the coun-
try bank carries with its city cor
respondent. City banks are beginning
to recognize this Many of them are
taking an active interest In the Bank
er-Farmer movement.
There are some fundamentals IN
farming with which all business men
should be familiar. A bank would
not long succeed II 1t should continue
to use it's capital stock for running ex
penses. Neither will the farm. Farm
ers have been living not upon the
interest from their investments but
upon their principal. Almost every
effort by American farmers has re-
suited in decreasing the fertility of
the soil. The banker who drives into
the country and observes this process
of mining the fertility from the land
should feel that to that extent the
resources of his bank are being
Slapped.
Yet some of our bankers are con
tinulng to loan money to the one-crop
farmer. When such a farmer comes
around for a loan the banker should
make the loan on the condition that
he keep at least one COW, one sow and
a couple of dozen hens. at least
enough livestock to feed his own fam
lily. Agriculture is sick, production is
unbalanced. Farmers are paying
freight aud other overhead charges on
Iron County news. [volume] (Hurley, Wis.) 1913-1950, 1923-12-08

food products they ought to be raising
at home.
Less Time for AgItators
More diversified farming may mean
less automobile riding; 1t ought to.
Our economic problems cannot be
solved unless we are willing to work.
The one-crop farmer is not performing
his share of work. He needs profit
able employment throughout the year.
Loaflng on the farm ought to be made
unpopular. Business men work
throughout the year. Why shouldn't
the farmer? If he did, there would
be less time to listen to the agitator.
The latter only increases discomfort,
makes men less capable and prolongs
the time of recovery. The farmer
must work his way out and not look
In vain for the Government to legis-
late high prices.
But If we get our farmers to work
ing full time will we not have
over-production? This over-production
cry blinds us to the real issue. There
may be times when certain crops, be
cause Of climatic or economic condi
lions, are improbable and yet there
are other crops that are profitable in
well worked out system of diversif
cation. In the livestock sections we
seldom hear Of an over-prodution Of
alfalfa or clover. In all sections Of
the country we are importing either
food or feed that we ought to be rails
ing at home. Our cropping system;
need to be readjusted to meet presen
needs. We need to do just a little
more constructive thinking.

Two billion dollars a year Is now

Power And Roads Are Related

Power And Roads Are Related
The proposed "Giant power system"
of Pennsylvania and the "Super-
power system" of the Atlantic sea-
board, have an intimate relation with
highway development, which the
proponents of such systems are now
considering as of very great i'm
portance.
Hard roads offer solution to this
problem of the development Of
rural power lines which are to be
underground, since such conduits
naturally follow the hard roads for
many reasons; the need of easy ac-
cess for repairs and additions, and
the growing necessity to light the
highways being among the greatest.
The engineering problem is now in
process of solution in road and
electrical laboratories.
The farmer is demanding electric
power, and with reason, for statistics
show that he can be supplied at a
price which is wholly an economic
possibility.
Governor Pinchot, in an article on
the subject of the giant power survey
for Pennsylvania, notes that 'In
Ontario, where the Canadian have
expended more than $200,00O,00
in utilizing Niagara's water power,
the Government finds it possible to
supply current to farms at rates
which are making its introduction
quite general throughout the pro-
vince. This power is used for
domestic purposes-coOking, clean
ing, washing, and ironing-and for
purely farm purposes, such as
milking, churning, pumping, and
thrashing.
"There was a time not so long ago
when the farmers ideal was to own
homestead free of mortgage. He
is no longer satisfied with that. He
knows that the country can not
prosper unless he prospers. He feels
that he and his wife and children are
entitled to as many of the
advantages of modern life as the
folks who live in the city. He wants
to have his farm as fully equipped
with labor-saving machinery as the
best modern factory. He wants tC
be able to use his brains for some
thing better than chores. He want;
to share in the benefits of the
! electrical age. He and his wife
want an electrically equipped farm
And nothing is more certain thai
in the end he is going to have it,"

THE FIGHT FOR the Southern
delegates is on. 1t was precipitat-
ed by Senator Hiram Johnson in
selecting Frank II. Hitchcock,
veteran of many Republican cam
paigns, as his manager in the battle
to wrest the Republican presidential
nomination from President Coolidge.
Johnson saw how successful
Hitchcock was in bringing in the
Southern delegations to defeat
Roosevelt in 1912, and he has con-
cluded that the former Postmaster
General is the one man in the
country (if such exists) who has the
ability to go up against c. Bascom
Slemp, Coolidge's campaign man
ager Both are adopts at playing
the "black and tan" game, and will
be one of the prettiest fights in the
country's political history, when the
Hitchcock and Slemp delegations get
together next spring in the fight for
seats in the Republican convention.
