JENKINS COMMEN
STORY ONE
(continued from page one)
(Continued from page ons)
HAT Is to say. If OUR railroads
bad been taxed no more heavily
than ths Canadian railroads, they
could have hauled FOR NOTHTNO
all our grain, all our floor, all our
livestock and ALL THE MAIL and
still have bad left 3100,000,000 a
year more than they actually DID
have left after paying taxes at the
American rate.
Here la a little angle on farm re
lief that Is worth some thought.
4
IIOW can anyone be an optimist
In the face of these conditions?
Well, here Is the only answer: This
tremendous burden of taxation has
been placed upon us because we have
been not only willing but EAGER to
bear the load.
, We have VOTED FOR THS MEN
Who have brought about this enor
mous Increase of taxes, we have
APPROVED expansion of government.
Candidates have said to us In their
platforms: "I helped to bring about
this great. Increase In the functions
of government, with Its accompany
ing Increase in cost," arid we have
applauded and sent these candidates
back to do more of It.
OUMMINO up, the cost of govern
ment has grown to staggering
proportions because we, the people,
have been not only willing but en
thusiastic. We Have rewarded with
our votes the men who INCREASED
the cost of government. We have
got behind and pushed.
Bo It follows that If we ' change
our way of thinking and DISAP
PROVE Increases In ths cost and ths
burdens of government. If we vote
down the men who want to spend
more and vote for the men who
want to spend less, we can change
ail this condition which Is becoming
so burdensome.
It lent as If we were helpless, for
ws AREN'T. We have in our own
hands ths remedy we seek.
This writer Is optimistic enough to
believe we will USE this remedy.

TO DO WITH RAIN
PARIS, Oct. 7, (UP) The Abbe
Moreau, director of the Observatory
of Bourges, and famous as a prophet
of good and erU days, has declared
that the influence of the moon was
practically negligible in its effects
on the weather. ,
"The moon bas no connection with
changes In the atmosphere, which
causa areas of depression, winds,
rains and the extremes of tempera
ture,' the Abbe said; "all that It
affect on earth Is the rising and
falling tides."
The venerable Abbe asserted, how
ever, that both the anclenta and
not a few modern students believe
that there are Indications given by
the moon which bear a close rela
tion to weather prediction.
We only have to cite the words
of General Bugeaud, the conqueror
of Isley, contained in one of his
letters dated November 39. 1841,"
the Abbe pointed out. "General Bu
geaud wrote, 'Eleven times out of
twelve, the weather during any lu
nar month can be judged by the
5th day; that is. If the 8th day re
sembles the 6th, and It being clear.
the rest of the month will be more
or less the same. If the 6th day is
compared to the 4th day, the pre
diction comes true' nine times out
of twelve.'
The Abbe Moreau observed, how
ever, tbat not only General Bugeaud
wrote of this prediction, but said
that It was known to the ancients,
particularly to Virgil, who had men
tioned It in the first book of his
Georglcs.
The ancients believed that the 4th
day of the new moon was indicative
and they believed It was an infal
lible sign, based on long observation.
Pliny the Klder wrote, according
to Abbe Moreau, "In Egypt ' it is
observed that the 4th day of the
new moon must be taken as an in
dication. If the lunar body shows
Itself clear on the fourth day, fine
weather will continue throughout
the month.'
