liam A. Shaw, local forecaster at
Mortified of the United States
weather bureau, Gays in part
A drought of unusual severity oc-
Cured throughout this section of the
state during the latter part Of Au-
gust, September and October The
crop season opened with the soil
amply moist and springs and streams
full The rainfall of April and May
was somewhat above the normal
During June July, August, Septem-
Der, and October there was a marked
deficiency, amounting to over five
inches or about G5 per cent of the
normal rainfall for the five months
Much of the rainfall during this per
iod was in The form of heavy showers
which quickly ran Off falling to do
more than to moisten the surface Of
the soil.
The temperature during April, May,
and June averaged 2.9 degrees a day
below the normal During July, Au-
gust, September and October it aver
aged two degrees a day above normal.
The mean maximum temperature
averaged two to seven degrees a day
above normal maximum during the
growing season and the minimum
temperature one to three degrees
day below normal minimum during
the same period
The drought period became effec-
tive during August, affecting the
crops to a moderate extent, but water
supply system and water power plants
much more. Many towns and cities
throughout the state. depending on
springs for their water supply suffer
ed severely The stages Of water in
rivers. ponds. and lakes reached the
lowest point ever known. Many pow
err plants not usually requiring steam
more than month have been using it
for the past four months. These con
ditions continued with increasing SEE
verify from the 18th OF August
through September. and We're only
slightly relieved during October
During twentyfour days. Septem-
Der to %. no rain fell. This is the
longest period without rain during the
past twenty-five years covered by the
records of the Mortified station. 80
rain fell from October l3 to %, a per
iod of thirteen days. Previous dry
periods were eleven days in August
and September. 1897, and eleven days
IN September 1903. The severity of
the drought did not become effective
soon enough to seriously affect the
crops this season; its effect on grass
and pasture win undoubtedly be felt
next year
Apparently the drought conditions
were due to deficiency in rainfall,
accumulated by the conditions under
which it fell, and the unusually high
dry temperature and much sunshine
which favored evaporation during
this period

TAFT-SHfRMAN BANOIifI
WAS A WARM LOyfFFl,
Machine Leaders Warned That Ihey N,,. !,
Throw But Must Execute the Popul,, wv W

Three lines of thought were ad-
vanced at the Taft-Sherman banquet
last night Every seat was filled,
and the great event of the evening
was the formal reception of Hon.
p. II. Darcy into the. Republican
party, which caused uprorarious ap-
plause as Chairman McNary intro
duced the old-line Democratic wheel
horse.
All elements agreed in eulogizing
Taft, and promising great things as
the result of continued Republican
administration. When the speakers
touched on state politics, there was
great differences of opinions. DR.. j.
n. Smith said that in order to keep
the party In power the Republican
leaders had made concessions to the
people that smacked Of Populism
and was responsible for all the
troubles of the present when Re-
publican legislature was pledged to
elect a Democrat to the U. s. sen
ate. He deplored this tendency or
the party to leave the beaten track
and accept heresies.
Must Follow the People.
Col Il. Hofer replied to Smith and
said that the Republican leaders OF
Oregon. instead of apologizlng for
what they had done in enacting the
Direct Primary law. the direct elec-
tion of senator's and giving the peo-
pie the Initiative and Referendum
should realize with pride that other
states were following oregon. enact
Ing these same laws, and even stai1
old Maine, the mother OF Republi-
canlsm. had adopted the direct law
making system. They should be men
enough to take the medicine which
they had prepared and administered
In order to keep In power. Col.
Hofer called their attention to fight
that was on against machine politics

Democratic Missouri had chosen q

Ohio, had chosen Democratic COVER
