Agriculture, mining, lumber, oil—these were the foundations of growth and greatness. Nature has continued to smile on California. Her resources, at ready hand, yield rich returns. Workers in her fields and mines reap higher reward for their labor than is paid anywhere else in the world. and the conditions of their employment are rendered kindlier by a beneficient climate. That is why, perhaps, efforts.to plant the seeds of labor and social unrest among them are proving increasingly unproductive—as was evidenced in the recent, unsuccessful attempt to influence workers in the mines of the Grass Valley-Nevada City .area and the Mother Lode to lay down their picks. Receiving the highest pay of gold miners the world over; for the most part owning or buying homes and accumulating savings for the accepted “‘luxuries’’ of modern life, automobiles, radios, education for their childre,n—they view with understandable sus-picion the subsidized activities and “‘causes’” of professional agitators. The blessings of nature are the blessings of man, and in California man is loath to revoke that benediction.

It is neither better nor worse than many other cities of this size. But in our opinion it could be much improved if the city council were to hire young city manager and le: him @direct the ctiy’s business affairs.

Why Edgar? Because he is the only poet who ever wrote a sweetly affectionate ode to his mother-inlaw. His poems are sure to!enjoy a great revival of popularity; the Raven for instance will be read by pale aesthetics with shuddery emotion and of course would be humorists will be doing things like this: Here I opened wide the shutter, And with many a flirt and flutter, In there stalked a stately lady— Mother of my lost Lenore; Not the least obesiance made she, Not a moment stopped or stayed she But with mein of leading lady Sank into my cushioned chair— Sank and sat and nothing more.
