WHAT causes tho vagaries of the weather'
Who is responsible, for tho dry season'
Who is to blame J'or the frosty nights?
Tho answer is easy President Wilson and the demo
crat ie. party. If you don't believe it, ask tho republican
central committee. Ask any reactionary. They will toll
you so.
At the recent calamity banquet, on Lincoln's birthday,
.wo were told so. Any stand-patter will confirm it.
It is tho Underwood tariff that caitses the drought. Tt
is the regulation of big business that brought on the frost.
It must bo true we have the word of tho local O. O. I,
lenders for it.
"When the sun shines too brightly or not, bright enough,
it is President Wilson's fault. When there is a shortage of
ram, or a surplus ot moisture, the presideut is again remiss.
He is equally to blame for cold winters and hot 811111111016,
and for winter lingering too long 111 the lap oL summer,
Only under republican administration are the seasons
correctly regulated. Tho stand-patters, like the kaiser, am
in partnership with God, and hence able to regulate the
seasons such is the guff of the Cr. O. P.
Of course, it is a little hard to reconcile facts with this
entertaining theory, for while Oregon, with a republican
administration, is dry. California, with a progressive ad
ministration is unusually wet, but logic does not enter into
the primitive political wisdom of stand-patters. It is just
as reasonable to blame the administration for climatic con
ditions as it is to blame it for hard times.
Administrations come and administrations go, but
frosts "and drouth come more or less regularlv, regardless
of who sits ill Washington. The fruitgrower has been en
abled to overcome the frosts by orchard heating. It is now
up to the farmer to overcome, the drouth bv irrigation, for
tho Lord helps them that help themselves, regardless of
self-proclaimed partnerships.
