Aims
Daily Kennebec journal., 1925-08-13
At CLOSE OF THE YEAR

The last fiscal year Of the Baxter
administration having como to a
close, July 1, Mr.. Baxter takes oc-
casioh to reply to the criticism that
was made by his successor soon after
taking ONCE. and defends his finan-
cial policies with characteristic vigor
and piausibility. He did not need to
do this to convince the public that
he endeavored while governor to
serve the state of Maine to the best
OF his ability. nor will his doing it
materially change opinions respect
Ing certain features Of his policies,
especially the administration Of the
contingent fund. However, he is
within his rights when he declares:
FL the business year closes salts
factorily the old governor is entitled
to the credit. II otherwise he must
bear the blame" If we would form
equitable conclusions respecting the
work of our administrators it should
be done wherever possible in the full
light OF the facts. This controversy
may serve to remind the people that
fair judgment respecting a financial
policy Is best had at the close of the
year for which the policy was in
Force. Opportunity seems here af-
Sorded for getting at such differing
views as may exist respecting Gov
ernor Baxter's policies. Possibly
conclusions SO formed will be help
full in the future.

BORROWING OTHERS
TROUBLES

Not having a good case Of their
own the hard-coal miners are In
cluding in their demands thoses OF
the soft-coal miners. who work under
more unfavorable conditions. With
out this strategy the anthracite
miners wouldn't be able to squeeze a
tear from the public eye, unless 1t
be a tear of wrath. But the plea for
the soft-coal workers may present
a situation calculated to arouse a
little sympathy.
There are more soft-coal mines
than are needed. The unions have
been unable fully to unionize these
and so restrict the output. Not long
ago a railroad union invested some
of its surplus in soft-coal mine
but learned from experience that 1t
was impossible to manage it sue
cessfully as a union mine and so 1t
became non union.
Without a good leg Of their own to
stand upon the hard-coal miners are
now endeavoring to confuse the
situation and divert attention from
themselves to the less favorable con-
ditions prevailing among the soft
coal miners. It is strategy for SYM
pathy, of which none Of the con-
testants are now getting much.
Whether borrowing the other fell
lows troubles will do this remains
to he seem

As Uncle Lucky hoped along,
Singing now and then song,
His stovepipe hat upon his head,
His coat tails flying as he sped
Along the Shady Forest Trail,
He spied a little squirrels tail.
Hello, hello, whose little squirrel
are you?" shouted the old gentleman
rabbit, stopping so quickly that his
gold watch almost bumped out OF
his waistcoat pocket The next
minute Squirrel Feathertail 'peeked
around the trunk of the tree.
II wish you'd take this pesky
squirrel away" all of sudden beg
ged Jimmy Jay. He makes Mrs.
Jay so nervous that she hardly can
keep In her nest. He is always
teasing her. peering into her nest
when she is looking for her break
fast, or scolding her while warming
her eggs"
Gracious mel" exclaimed the old
gentleman rabbit, "the idea of your
complaining of Squirrel Feathertail:
you, the biggest blue jay in the
whole neighborhood. You're a tease
yourself. Don't lose your temper"
"I'll peck out his eyes if he doesn't
behave" scolded Jimmy Jay, flying
straight at the little squirrel. But he
didn't. No, indeed. Squirrel Feather
tail was too quick for him, and be-
fore the angry blue jay could turn
in his flight, the little squirrel was
safe inside the hollow tree, in which
he had built comfortable bunga-
low.
"Hoity, toity!" exclaimed the old
gentleman rabbit, as Jimmy Jay be-
gan to scold. Don't lose your
temper entirely. Hope the next
time I come this way you will be in
a pleasanter mood" and on again
hoped nice Uncle Lucky under the
tall trees, around the rocks and the
bushes, towards home.
Goodness gracious meebus!" he
exclaimed by and by, after while,
I've taken too long a walk. Should
have come in the Luckymobile. The
rheumatism in my little Toe is COM
mencing to pain me. Ouch!" and he
stopped suddenly to rub his foot.
Dear me. it's growing dark" he
said to himself. as he pulled on his
shoe. "I've been gone long, lons
time. Little Miss Mousie will be
worrying about me-" and once more
he hurried on. But, Oh dear me
It grew so dark before he had gone

and met with extraordinary success.
OF his work the Evening Post says,
"Mr. Wrenn's swift response to the
beauty Of place is reflected in these
pictures of italy and France. The
drawings and water colors both give
back a deep delight. 1t is his fresh
ness of vision and his power to wiring
out the essence of beauty from a
scene that gives charm to his work"
Mr.. Wrenn has also won distinction

ADVERTISING PLEASES
READERS

The experience Henry Ford Is hav-
ing with the Dearborn Independent
bears out the claim which has been
made, that readers of publications
desire that portion be devoted to
advertising. If not news. adver-
tisements appeal as news to many
readers. Certainly there Is about
properly prepared advertising in
formation which the news readers
wish to have AMI may get in no
other way.
When Ford bought the paper in
1918 it was a small country weekly
and he changed it to a sixteen page
magazine with all advertising
eliminated. Although he has secured
100000 subscribers for the publica-
ton and been able to excite a good
deal Of attention. especially by way
of unjust attacks on the Jews, he
now decides to increase to 4S pages
and introduce advertising. but only
on 16 of the 4S pages. In that
respect he will be showing more re-
straint than do some publishers.

ENLAReEs PERSPECTIVE

It is important that readers Of
the daily news get the right per-
spective, due sense Of the actual
proportion. In measure they de-
pend, on those who present the news
and the sensational dazzles them so
they overlook that which is more i'm
portant and absolutely essential to
q proper conception Of actual life.
How, many Of US reading the daily
news have noticed that the man,
who for quarter of a century has
given service as superintendent of
the lonely leper isle of Molokai". {.
has retired from that station and
reports that after all these years
conditions there have been made
very favorable for the unfortunate,
or have read the tribute which he
pays. to the character of these peo-
ple?
Good people in the world, even
among the lepers. He tells us that
these lepers are law-abiding "and it
is remarkable what little disciplin-
ing they need If they are all treated
alike" And by the way what little
disciplining most Of us would need
Il We could be convinced we were
all being treated alike!
When. during the war. they were
told there might be somewhat of a
food shortage their response was:
That's all right. So long as the
country is in trouble we'll not COM
plain" Not being permitted to make
things for the boys in France they
subscribed from meager funds to
procure these. Manifestly these peo-
pie are not suffering from leprosy
af the soul. And really knowledge
Of this would seem to be suitable
for the readers of the daily news,
especially these hectic days.

No Civil War In Massaehusetts

Boston Transcript
There is only one way to char
acterize the affair at South Sudbury
on Monday night. 1t was a murder
GUS and wicked form Of the feud.
that form Of private warfare which
the New England States used to
point to in Southern States as a
sign Of inferior civilization. Here
after. the less said on that subject
the better. From the facts as they
are ascertained up to the moment
Of going to press 1t 10 perfectly clear
that the assailants had gone to the
Klan meeting or were on their way
to it we'll armed and prepared to
take the action which showed itself
in the shooting from ambush Of ave
men, none Of whom were Klansmen
and none Of whom appear to have
been armed. How does this recital
strike your eyes and your mind in
the Bay State in 1925?
There is but one thing to be done
about this sinister fooling with the
safety Of citizens and the good name
Of the Commonwealth. 1t Is to put
an end to it so sharply and so
sternly that it will discourage for
years to come all those who deem
the public highways a cockpit for
their particular feuds. We care not
at all whether they be Klan or anti
Klan: their political and religious
opinions are nothing to US, but we
shall not let the apparent hopeless
ness of a situation where wrong
headedness and violence take the
place Of self-respect and reason,
bluff US into the weakness of say
ing: "A plague on both your
houses" The Job now is to make
both houses obey the law and in that
way show that they are entitled to
consideration on the part Of the
law-abiding. The case at Sudbudy,
however. Is an open and shut one.
It shows the feud system in full
flower; the victims, the time, the
place, the circumstances all furnish
an exhibition Of cruel and insolent
contempt for law, and the more
coolly this Is understood. the
stronger the case against the
authors Of this crime.

Editorial Comment
Simply Tried to Do Right
(The Public Ledger)

no A<S06SAt
"Mr. Coolidge has made no fuss or
buster in advocating his policies.
He has merely recommended them
to Congress and the country and IN
the briefest possible way has ex-
planned why they ought to be
adopted. He has not confused the
popular thinking by a mess OF words
out Of which It was impossible to
extract any meaning He will meet
Congress in December backed by a
public sentiment which cannot be
ignored, and those Congressman who
seek reelection next year will fall
over themselves in an effort to prove
to their constituents that they are
with the President. They know that
II they fght him the people at home
will fight them.
And all this has come about be-
cause the country is convinced that
Calvin Coolidge Is trying to do the
right thing. And Calvin Coolidge
has succeeded in doing the right
thing because he has not tried to do
anything else. He can look back on
the last two years with considerable
satisfaction"
