The Irl R. Hicks 1901 Almanac.

Whatever may be said of the scien-
tific causes upon which the Rev. Irl
r.. Hicks bases his yearly forecasts of
storm and weather, it is a remarkable
fact that specific warnings of every
great storm, flood, cold wave and
drouth, have been plainly printed in
hi now famous almanac for mary
years. The latest startling proof of
this fact was the destruction of Gal
weston, Texas, on the very day named
by Prof. Hicks in his 1900 Almanac,
as one of disaster by storm along the
gulf coasts. The 1901 Almanac, by far
the finest, most complete and beauti-
full yet published, is now ready. This
remarkable book of near two hundred
pages, splendidly illustrated with
charts and halftone engravinga, goes
as premium 10 every subscriber who
pays one dollar year for Prof. Hicks

manac alone is sent prepaid for only

question, "Abe, why don't you give us
your serious opinion on the result of
the election"' ! might reply that get

enough without any further remarks,
but when question is asked in sober
earnest / will endeavor to answer in
earnest, to say nothing about the sober
past. / always have been and still am
of the opinion that while democratic
principles are not perfect, they are
nearer right than republican. There
are various and numerous side shows
whose main object as far as i can see is
to have the names of the leaders go
down to future generations as once
being candidates for President of the
United States; but when the number
of votes they receive is Investigated
their glory will melt sooner than butter
before the sun. All agree that two
great parties are necessary and that is
enough; but the off5hoots or side shows
are not worthy of a moments notice.
As a choice between parties, / believe
that majority of voters intend to be
right, aud for one when convinced
that the principles of some other party
are better than mine, no one will
change ends quicker than old Abe.
In many ways this is the most re-
markable country in the world and the
patriotism and love of country is won.

about six months; speakers and papers

great republic; they all know that the
people are rulers and that the majority
must rule, so they submit gracefully to
greater numbers, doubtless feeling that
what is good for the majority must be
