Just One Inch Of Rain.

When the weather bureau reports
that an inch Of rain has fallen, II
means that the amount Of water that
descended from the sky in that par
ticular shower would have covered the
surrounding territory to a depth of one
inch If none Of it had run off or soaked
into the ground.
It means that on one acre Of ground
enough water to fill more than 600
barrels Of 45 gallons each has fallen.
That quantity Of water weighs more
than 40 tons. If the rainstorm Gov.
cred 1000 acres, which would be, a
very small shower indeed, 114,O00 tons
Of water would fall from the clouds.
Rainstorms frequently cover whole
states and often two or three or five
inches Of water fall in one storm. A
single widespread and heavy storm
might result in 1OO,00O.O00,000 tons of
water.

Massachusetts Is American

1t is doubtful if ever in our his
tory Il State election has excited such
nation wide interest as the one he'd
last Tuchday in Massachusetts. The
reelection of Calvin Coolidge to the
Governcrship by what appears to be
the largest plurality ever recorded
in the State, cannot fail to give solid
satisfaction to every real American,
whether he be capitalist, employee:
or wage Garner.
For years Bolshcvism under diff
crent names and DISCUSSES has plann-
ed to capture this country. Their
strategists Taught that one of the
first steps towards the accomplish
ment of this purpose must be the
disorganizing of the military and po-
lice forces.
The so called strike of the Boston
police attainS Il nation wide impor-
lance when we realize that it was
one of the opening battles of these
revolutionists. Had they been success
ful the invasion would have been on.
But, like the Huns of the Marine,
they suffered II crushing defeat, and
the man who defeated them was the
Governor of massachusetts. For this
he was marked for slaughter? Rad
of lawlcssness and disorder were
summoned to fight against him. The
issue was Amcrcansm or Radical
lism. There was no middle course.
There could be none. This country is
not large enough for both. One or
the other must go down.
The people of one Of the greatest
industrial states in the union whose
population is so largely made up of
wage earncrs rallied to the fight.
They proved that Famcil Hall is not
a tradition; that the voice of the old
Liberty Bell still rings in their ears,
and taht Washington and Adams are
something more than half forgotten
memories.
In his great Grafton against multi
fication, Webster, answering the
sncers of the champion of treason
and disloyalty, pointed to the past
record of Massachusetts, in behalf OF
liberty and proudly exclaimed, "Therc
she is"
One can almost hear an echo OF
| those words in the recent election, fol
like that scene in the Senate Chan.
Der it was an opening battle against
American institutions, splendidlS
fought and grandly won. From the
lakes to the gulf, from the Atlantic
to the Pacific, there is not mar
woman or child who was not vitally
interested in this election. Every
business interest, every title to prop.
ertv every savings bank account ant
every payroll and workingmans ma,
envelope will be made more secure
by this victory of Americanism over
lawlessness and disorder. 1t is al
assurance that everywhere, in every
time of test the heart of the Amer.
lean people will prove to be sount
and nobly respond to patriotic leader
ship-Wall Street Journal.
