"Same old storynothing new
This sounds like, and is, the title OF
a popular ditty, but in the present
instance it has reference to the
weather of the past week, which was
in every detail similar to that OF
last week, and the week before, and
the week before and SO on, almost
ad libitum Nothing to compare with
the present brand of climate has ever
been experienced in this locality
that is, SO far as the memory of the
Oldest inhabitant goes, or the rec
ords of the local heather observer

that entire. period there have not
been more than ten entirely clear
days. The ineessant doWnpcllr has
made quagmires of the public roads,
and travel over them is almost i'm
possible except by horseback.
The coolest weather of the season
prevailed yesterday, the temperature
having been several degrees below
the freezing point throughout the
entire day. Sleet fell in the after
noon and evening, and the indica-
tons pointed strongly to snow, but
fortunately this visitation was avoid
ed. Last night the mercury IN

ture of 20 degrees, and it is likely
that in the country, where there
were no buildings or other obstruc+
tons to break the sweep of the bit

to Is degrees was recorded. Thanks
to the timely warning sent out by
the weather bureau, ample precau-
tons had been taken to protect
crops and live stock, as we'll as
water pipes, and it is not expected
that any material damage will result
from the blizzard in this section. To
day the weather is cold and spark
ling, and it begins to look as though
the backbone of the wet spell has
been broken for keeps. So mote
it be!
Growing tired of dragging along at
a fraction Of their capacity, many
of the factories in this section which
have not yet wound up the campaign
shut down entirely at the close OF
last week and announced that they
would wait until the weather settled
before resuming operations. instllied

Political MEETINGS,

Political rallies were held at the
Donaldsonville courthouse Saturday
night, Jan. 6; Thursday night, the
18th, and last night, in the interest,
respectively, of Candidates AsWell,
Foster and Sanders. The Aswell
meeting was the best attended of
the three, weather conditions having
been much more propitious on that
date than for the Foster and San
ders rallies. Indeed, it may be re-
garded in the light Of a signal tri-
butte to the last-named candidates
that the scheduled meetings in
their behalf were held at all, since
the weather was SO inclement on
both occasions as to keep nearly
everybody indoors. Particularly was
this the case last night. when the
coolest weather of the season pre-
vailed. Despite this fact, however,
upwards of one hundred voters were
in attendance at the Sanders meet
ing, and something like one hun
dred and fifty were present at the
Foster rally the night before.
