Plenty of Rainy Days, But No Great
Volume of Rain.
The rain hangs on, and the weather
men say there is to be more of it to-
day, the forecast being for showers.
The month up to date has been re-
markable, almost paradoxical, for out
of the nineteen days that have passed
it has rained on twelve, but the rain
fall is 100 inches below the average,
nevertheless. Thus, while it has been
raining nearly all the month, there has
been but little rain. That is what the
records say.
Also the weather continues cool, the
past six days having been below the
normal. Yesterday the high mark was
rs, reached at 4 o'clock in the after
noon, and the low point g. at 1880 in
the morning. This is the story of the
past few days, warm afternoons and
cool nights, getting chilly towards
morning. For the month thus far
there is a deficit of &c degrees.
The rainfall yesterday was "a of an
inch, an excess for the day of 20 inch.
The month continues to be without
wind of any noteworthy velocity. Nor
is there any indication that the calm
is to be disturbed at present. There
is a mild atmospheric disturbance over
the Central Gulf, which the bureau is
watching, but as yet it does not show
any startling phenomena. 1t is there
and may blow or it may not 1t is
being watched to see just what it
will do.

appropriate gestures and the conven-
tional expressions, the Old Politician
continued:
Il remember that year I was max
ing my first campaign for office. 1t was
a hard fight, for my opponent was
man who was able and prominent and
who had held for long years the Office
to which we both aspired. He added TO
these advantages a liberal supply of
the long green, while $1,000, borrowed
from my friends, represented my roll.

the city and every section of the coun-
ty. He had the advantages of elo-
quence, while l could always do more
business shaking hands than wagging
my tongue. He would hold meet
ing one night and the next night l
would be out there with two or three
friends and jug and attempt to take
away the impression he had made.
Sometimes l succeeded and sometimes
l didn't. 1t usually depended, so far
as permanent impressions were con-
cerned on the capacity of the jug.
When it was large and we'll filled, I
usually found those who dipped into
it could say more in my favor than
my opponent had said against me.
II made just one speech. 1t was the
night before the, election, and l had
figured it out needed the 125 votes

win My opponent probably had
reached the same conclusion, for when

found him ahead of me, mounted on
the tail of a wagon and making a
speech that shook the circumambient
air More to the purpose, 1 found it
was shaking the crowd, for l saw men
thought pledged to me proffering
their names for entry in the oppoSi-
ton candidates little book.
II said nothing and lay low. When
the triumphant party of the opposition
started back to the city 1 gathered the
crowd together again and made my
speech. 1t was neither long nor flow
cry, and it was principally to the eff
feet that 1 needed the office, while the
other man didn't.
1T seemed to take, though. for the
crowd fingered, and when the whisky
began to flow they showed an even
greater willingness to stay. They

of 20 to 8. On a proposition to change
the place for holding conventions in
the Ninth district for selecting dele
gates to state. county, senatorial and

manded that the matter be laid on the
table and protested against William S.

resentative of the district on the ground
of fraud. The matter was referred to

After the meeting Mr.. Devery made
a formal demand for his credentials,
but was unable to get any satisfaction.

There was a heeler in one of the

votes. For some days before the cleo
ton the heeler-I'H call him Moriarty,
because Traits not his name, kept his
saloon open and his votes inside. Then
he offered the entire contents of his
place for sale.

his terms too high. l knew he was ly-
ing. He hung around for a while
longer and l told him. finally, the best
thing for him to do was to take the
other crowds money, keep his heelers
in line and on the day of the election,
at 10 o'clock, to come to me.
well, sir, he did. He beat the other
bunch out of all he could get from
them, and on election day, after he had
the opposition's money and his voters
had all the beer they could carry, I
gave him a $40 bilhfor himself and a
ten spot for each of the votes, and be-
fore the opposition knew what was
happening, had every ballot in the box.
It was hard, but 1 thought It fair. The
man who tries to debauch the honest
American voter deserves to be beaten
at his own game.
"Of course said the Younger Poll
tician, with an expansive smile and
knowing wink, Il wouldn't nave paid a
cent for those votes if l could have got
them for nothing"
Il approve your sentiment highly"
