THE YEAR WITHOUT A SUMNER.

We continue to receive occasional IN
quiries concerning the year in which there
was no Summer. Some persons appear
to have wrong idea as to the time. 1t
was the year 1916. 1t has been called
the "year without Summer FOR there
was sharp frost in every month. There
are old farmers still living it Connecticut
who remember it well. 1t was known
as the "year without summer. The
farmers used to refer to it as eighteen
hundred and starve to DEATH. January
was mild, as also was FEBRUARY, with the
exception of few days The greater
part of March was cold and boisterous.
April opened warm, but grew colder as
it advanced, ending with snow and ice
and Winter cold. In May ice formed
half an inceithick, buds and flowers were
frozen and corn killed. Frost, ice and
snow were common in June. Almost
every green thing was killed, and the fruit
was nearly all destroyed Snow fell to
the depth of three inches in New York
and Massachusetts,, and ten inches is
Maine. July was accompanied with frost
and ice, On the 5th ice was formed to
the thickness of window glass in New
York, New England and Pennsylvania,
and corn was nearly all destroyed in GER
tain sections In August ice formed
half an inch thick. A cold northern wind
prevailed neaerly all Summer.
Corn was so frozen that great deal
was cut down and dried for fodder.
Very little ripened in New England,
even here in Connecticut, and scarcely
any even in the Middle States. Farmers
were obliged to pay 81 OF s. bushel for
corn of 1916 for seed for the next Springs
planting. The first two weeks ofSeptem-
Der were mild, the rest of the month was
cold, with frost, and ice formed a quarter
of an inch thick. October was more than
usually cold, with frost and ice. Novem-
Der was cold and clustering, with snow
enough fol good sleighing. December
was mild and comfortable Hartford
Times.

4 PLAIN TALK.

The result of the city election is to be
deplored. 1t had been fondly hoped by
many of our citizens for several months
that the bonded debt which has cursed
this city so long, was at last to be adj
justed. They hoped much from the ex-
change system and for a time it did APP
pear as if we might look forward to the day
when the city would no longer be ham
pered with debt A few weeks ago the
future of Watertown looked brighter than
it has for years. There seemed to be no
opposition to the plan of settlement as
talked by our citizens, and it was thought
that loyal part of the element which
had hitherto INSTRUCTED all attempts at
settlement would assist in giving the ex-
change system, under the new law, a
thorough trial. But the friends of the city
reconed without their host. No sooner
was a movement made to carry the law
into execution than the most formidable
opposition to settlement manifested it
self. Although the friends Of compromise
put up and supported the best men the
city afforded for bond commissioners, the
obstructionists succeeded in electing four
of the seven commissioners, and it is un-
derstood that they favor no practical
| Il l. ~ fhn hny
missioners lie the power to carry out the
| provisions of the law and with no one
else They are elected for four years, the
| full time for which the exchange law is
operative, and majority of the board
have it in their power to prevent the eX-
change of single bond. The outlook IS
indeed discouraging. Unless one or more
of the commissioners who were elected
on the issue of no compromise can be IN
duced to change their views in regard to
settlement there is no help for us. We
must be content to see the business of the
city languish, to witness the most enter
prising Of our population removing away,
and in the end we shall have nothing
but dead town, despised and avoided
by every one. The name of Watertown
will henceforth be synonymous with dis
honesty and stupidity, in greater degree
| than ever before. Nor is this all. The
town, though dead, will not be forgotten
by those who hold claims against it. We
may be allowed to go on for years defy
ing the bondholders, but sooner or later,
unless something is done in the way of
settlement, the city will be on the auction
block. This is no fancy picture. Assure
as the sun is to rise tomorrow just so sure
has the city of Watertown got to pay her
debt. If the day ofpayment is delayed
until the collection is enforced, the citizens
who would save their property will have
to pay dollar for dollar. This will surely
follow if all efforts at compromise are
persistently voted down in the future as
( in the past.

THE ETIQUETTE OF {" FIRST
CALI

The absurdities of Washington Ell
quette in the matter OF first calls cannot
be better illustrated than by mentioning
how Mrs. Blaine and Mrs. Sherman have
several times reversed their positions with
respect to who should make the first call
on the other. When Mr. Blaine first came
here he was member Of the House of
Representatives and Mr.. Sherman Sen
ator so Mrs. Blaine had to make the
first call each year on Mrs. Sherman.
When Mr.. Blaine became Speaker, it was
Mrs. Sherman's duty to call first on Mrs.
Blaine. When he ceased to be Speaker,
and was still member of the House, the
old order of things was restored. Then
Mr.. Blaine went into the Senate and Mr..
Sherman into the Cabinet, and the order
of the first call was again reversed and
now as Mr.. Blaine is in the Cabinet and
Mr.. Sherman in the Senate, It again be-
came Mrs. Blaine's duty to make first
call on Mrs. Sherman. This she prompt
" did, and Mrs Sherman returned it on
Mrs. Blaine's first reception day as the
wife of a Cabinet officer Washington
Letter.

IT is reported that H. IL. Dodd, OF
Fond du Lac, is an applicant for posi-
tion on the new supervisory boards of the
State Charitable and Reformatory institu-
tons. Mr.. Dodd was one OF the head
centers of that traitorous organization dur
ing the war known as the Knights OF the
Golden Circle He is a new convert to
Republicanism and expectsprompt pay OF
course, in the shape of an office. When
the republican party of this state SO for
gets decency as to give men Of Mr.. Dodd's
stamp places of honor and profit it is high
time that loyal men Of the party sought
new political affiliations

1t is generally understood that Col.
e. w. Burchard. of Fort Atkinson, will
be appointed by the governor member
of the Board of Control for the State Char
liable and Reformitory institutions from
this Congressional district. This is an ap-
pointment eminently fit to be made. Col.
Burchard has been one of the directors of
the State Prison for several years. This
institution starts out conspicuously as the
best managed of any in the state, not on
ly in a financial sense but in every other
Wa-y It has asked for no appropriation
for three years, and has become very
nearly selfsupporting. To Col. Burchard
perhaps more than to any other member
of the Prison board, is due the credit for
the excellent record Of ourState penitenti-
ary. He is an able, far-seeing, consclen-
tious man, and it is safe to say that the
affairs of our State institutions will be
RIM On the strictest business principles SC
far as he can control them. IT the other
amendments Of the governor are men o.
The same ability and adaptation for the
work as Col. Burchard, we may look fol
many decided improvements in the seT
oral State institutions referred to.

MINNESOTA WHEAT.

WTNONA, April An unprecedented
condition of affairs prevails among the
farmers of Minnesota The spring work
will of course be behind, and wheat SOW
ing will have to be done in the time usu-
ally allotted to corn planting, while the
latter will have to be still further post
ponea Not only this, but in some sections
last years wheat, owing to the early win
ter and the snow blockades, is still in the
stacks unthreshed. Some Of this is said
to be in good condition and some of it
has become unfit for Touring purposes. II
the weather continues dry and cool, the
greater part of it will be preserved, but il
it rains much, the grain must necessarily
become musty, and be rejected by the
millers. It is claimed that there are large
wheat areas in Minnesota, that have only
added one-half Of the crop to the general
product, the other half being blockaded
in the snow drifts. Owing to the delay in
farm work this spring, farmers who con-
templated improvements will have nc
time to undertake them, and the demand
for lumber will be proportionately less,
This condition of affairs is somewhat
counterbalanced by the fact that mills
VIII be thirty days late in starting up,
and the seasons cut will be greatly re-
duced. The mills at Davenport, Rock
Island and Moline are in shape to cut a
million feet a day, and thirty days delay
means thirty million feet off the seasons
cut in those cities alone.

THROUGH an oversight we neglected,
at the proper time, to make note of the
enlargement of the Milwaukee Daily
Republican and News. This exponent
of Republicanism is now the largest daily
in the State, it having recently been en-
larged from a six column quarto to a
seven column quarto. The Republican
and News resembles very much the
Inter-Ocean III size, style and make up,
and its news, editorials and other mat
tiers, compare favorably with any paper
in the northwest. Horace Rublee Knows
how to make good paper, and we are
GLAD to see that his efforts are meeting
with success.

LAST week we published card from
f. P. Brook in which he gave his motives
for taking a prominent part in the COM
promise meeting which was held at Tur-
ner Hall the goth ult. We believe that
Mr.. Brook had nothing but the welfare Of
the city at heart in all that he did relat-
ing in any way to the meeting, and also
is this true of the republicans who aided
in the movement. There are those we
presume who honestly differed with the
projectors of the meeting as to the best
way to accomplish the purposes for which
it was called, but they had no right to
question the motives Of Mr.. Brook or
others and the low personal filings which
were INDUCED in on that occasion were
entirely uncalled for of the fueds
which exist between the different fac
tons of the democratic party here, we
care nothing, but as republicans were as
much responsible for the meeting as Mr..
Brook, we deem it our duty to say word
in their behalf. 1t was no republican
dodge as it has been characterized.
neither do we think any Of the instiga-
tors had any other thought than to serve
the city, the many stories which have
been circulated since the meeting, to the
contrary Notwithstanding.

CoNsrANTINoPLE, April 6.-The great
ness of Sundays earthquake at Scio has
been underestimate. 1t is now thought
the deaths alone will reach 5000. Castri,
the chieft town of Scio, is almost mass OF
debris. Scarcely house is left standing.
Homeless people are wandering, seeking
food and shelter. Hundreds OF corpses
have already been found Of people caught
and crushed by falling buildings. Many
dead and wounded are still under the rl-
ms. The Porte is doing what it can to
ameliorate the restitution. The authorl-
lies of Scio ask for 1000 tents.

SECRETARY War Lincoln is being al
ternately blessed and cursed by army Off
GERS. He is sending those who have been
on staff duty in cities, having soft time
laying around headquarters, out to the
frontier, and bringing those who have
been lodging Indians arrows for some
time within the pale of civilization to
do some of the heavy sitting around. I'm
Gle Samuel has more army officers than
he knows what to do with nowadays.

HE republican candidates for governor
of Wisconsin whose names will be pre-
sented to the next republican State con-
vention are many. Among those who
will have considerable following may be
mentioned, Hans B. Warner, the present
popular secretary of state, Lieut.. Gov.
Bingham, Jonathan Bowman, Senator
Kelly of Green Bay, Senator Richardson
of GAINESVILLE, Senator Scott Of Grand
Rapids, Hiram Smith of Sheboygan, Gen.
Winckler of Milwaukee, and j. 9. Thorp
of Eau Claire There are doubtless others
who have longing to fill the executive
chair, but they have not been unearthed
as yet by their friends. The republican
convention will have plenty of good tim
Der to select from, and the lucky man
will have to fight for the prize.
