To this we can respond that while Oregon has a dry season, we've never known a failure of crops. 2 Also, that the ay erage for the ye ii about. 6s per ceui 01 tne days are fair, the other 35 per cent including all days in during which there is any precipi tation. I've often said that I've seen the roads dusty during every month. Not the same year, of course. This may possibly be a slight exaggaration. but all will agree that they have frequently seen the roads dusty during the so "called rainy season. They will also re member that farmers have sown grain in every month, and it is not uncommon for fruit trees to bloom in February, but they are not now in bloom. But while the worthy editors and many influential men aud women are tryine to eliminate the word "Webfoot"' as applied to the nat ives of Oregon, while I'm trying to remove all opprobrium from the term and make it a sign of honor to the wearer, and while many others bearing the sobriquet by word and deed are commanding the re spect and admiration of all, now comes The Independent, remarking that "the delightful weather of the last two or three weeks is a surprise to the oldest inhabitant." How ever, in same irsue is printed an in terview with our "old inhabitant," in which is found no statement to the effect that this weather is unpre cedented. I do not believe that a large proportion of the "oldest in habitants" will agree that this weather is even uncommon. But if they should so azree. let's not be like the boy who is anxious to show his new Sunday overalls. This leads the stranger to wonder how he is dressed on week dava. Now, Mr. Editor, I may be wrong, and if so, I'd like to be shown. But I m not from Missouri. I'm an Oreeonian a "Webfoot." if vou choose to call me such, and proud of my home. I can also say that every opportunity I've had to com pare this with other localities has ncreased this pride. I heartily agree with a traveling man whom I met on a train. On learuing that ray home is in the Willamette val- ey, he said, "That certainly is the garden spot of God's green earth." LJv. Wilkes. Seuator Geariu, if theteleeraphic reports may be credited, has consid erably cleared the political atmos phere in Oregon. When he left Portland in December last to take is place in the senate, it was an nounced with considerable volume of voice that he was a Roosevelt upporter. In some quarters this as intended to debauch republi cans aud make it possible to elect a democratic senator next winter. This is changed now, and by Mr. Gearin himself, who from New York last Saturday announced that he would be governed by the ac tion of the democratic caucus of senators. He will now refuse to support President Roosevelt's for eign policy. Some of Mr. Ge arin's friends commend his action on the ground that it will bring democrat ic support to his Oregon projects. They forget that while he may se cure votes from the minority, the same ourse of action will alienate the support of the majority without which no legislation favorable "to Oregon can be enacted. Republi cans thus see that it is not safe to desert party, and further, that if their ideas are to be adopted 'and carried out by the national admin istration, only republican represen tatives can be depended on to make effective such policies. Wcsteid"" Oregon.' ' Independence Enterprise: The growing strength of the candidacy ofS. B. Huston for congress is en couraging to the friends of govern ment ownership of the locks at Ore gon City. Au open river is a hob by of Mr. Huston's and his election to congress would mean that all his energies and ability would be cen tered on that object until it is ac complished. Huston is an able lawyer and would be a valuable ser vant for the interests of Willamette valley in Washington. He would be lor the First district, a second Tongud. The attempt to question his partisan loyalty is ill-timed. The people of Oregon have paid dearly lor the game of politics. The people now have it in their power to look after their own inter ests rather than the interests of pol iticians. It's the man that can do the most for them they want in con gress and under the direct primary they will hardly be mislead by the appeal of politicians.
