IMPERIAL VALLEY PRESS
POLITICAL FUN DESIRABLE

WITH the country settling down to
w earth again after several months of
intensive political campaigning, there is
time now for a little sober reflection
which brings out values in their true
light after they have been obscured by
the political spell-binders charged with
the job of drumming up votes.
Herbert Hoover is still President of
the United States and as such none will
accord him greater respect and homage
than some of his political opponents who
have been clamoring so loudly for his
scalp.
Franklin D. Roosevelt is the next Pres
ident of the United States and already is
government figure, surrounded by
secret service guard and may even be
consulted unofficlally on government
matters during the time he is awaiting
Inauguration. Republicans of high and
low degree accept the wish of the ma
Jority, and whereas political leaders
may have termed him a demagogue on
Monday, today Mr. Roosevelt is an en-
tirely different parsonage.
Victor and vanquished have set good
example for their followers There is
no gloating by the former and no despair
or peevishness exhibited by the latter.
The people have chosen and their wish is
accepted as it should be.
This condition exists down to the rank
and file in the great number of in
stances. Of course there are some so set
in their political affiliations that they
carry it into every portion of their lives.
These are mean people naturally and
Undoubtedly they are mean on many other
subjects.
The great maj ority of us respect the
other fellows political views and though
we will argue with him until the cows
come home, mutual respect is always ev-
ident And underneath much of our po-
litical discussion is sound, fundament-
al, humor which gives birth to the num-
erous freak" bets which are being paid
just at this time.
Some may scott at these bets and as
sert they are undignified and too juve-
nile for adults to indulge in, and perhaps,
strictly speaking, they are. But isn't 1t
better for men who disagree to remain
friends and take their defeats or victories
good-naturedly than to become sour and
embittered and hold grudges?
1t isn't the politicians who make the
country, but the rank and file of the peo-
pie and while they can continue to get
chuckles and laughs out of their political
fortunes. and misfortunes, there is no
need to fear for the nations future.

laughing. II know enough for that.
But a butterfly amid the flowers
would look very pretty, I think.
1t would not get tangled in my tail,
it wouldn't sting and it is very
quiet around the house, not singing
or buzzing or anything like that.
Every true" agreed Uncle Wig
gily. I'll go out and see if can
catch you a butterfly, Nurse Jane.
The rabbit gentleman hoped
out to the garden where, in, Sum-
mer, he had seen many butterflies
fitting about among TIL e
flowers. But now Winter was
coming on and butterflies cannot
live in cold weather. Their wings
are SO beautiful and thin that they
must have sunshine and warmth.
But Uncle Wiggily was lucky
enough to find one of the very last
butterflies of the Summer. 1t was
a beautiful creature with golden
red wings. 1t was sitting on an
old aster flower when the rabbit
first saw it. And when Mr.. Long
ears invited the butterfly to come
in the bungalow and live among
his wife's flowers until Summer
came again, the pretty thing curled
up it's long black tongue, that it
used to sip honey from deep down
in the flowers, and said:
Fright gladly will I come and live
in your bungalow"
Inside it flew and when it saw
the box of gay flowers the butter
fly was very happy. Nurse James
kitchen was warm and sunny anc
the butterfly said:
This is as lonely as a summer
garden. I shall be very happy
here.
And not only was the butterfly
happy, but it made Uncle Wiggily
and his wife and Nurse Jane hap
py also, fitting amid the blossoms
like piece of the rainbow. So they
all lived happily together day after
day.
And now, if the clothes horse
doesn't try to walk on the line in
the back yard like a clown in the
circus, I'll tell you next about I'm

WHEAT OUTLOOK
FOR CALIFORNIA
is ENCOURAGING

Wheat appears to be more likely
to return a profit to the grain
farmer in 1888 than barley. Ac-
cording to E. w. Braun, extension
specialist in agricultural economics
on the Giannini foundation at the
University of California, indica-
tons for the coming year favor
wheat over barley, although there
does not appear to be any great
improvement in the price of wheat.
California imports about half
the wheat it uses, he points out,
and most of this comes from the
Pacific Northwest. Hence prices
here depend upon those in Port
land, which in turn are regulated
by the price movements in Liver
pool.
The 1882 supply of wheat in the
United States is materially less
than that of 1881, he says, and re-
ports on intentions to plant winter
wheat this fall show a still greater
reduction in wheat acreage; con-
traction in other countries, how
ever, is not apparent.
"It would appear, therefore,
says Braun, that unless interna-
tional trade in wheat improves Of
an important speculative demand
for wheat appears, no major change
in the price of wheat in 1888 as
compared to 1881 is now to be ex-
pected. If worldwide improve
ment in business conditions occurs
! it will stimulate internationa
trade in wheat"
Outlook for Barley
AS to barley, Braun shows thai
the California price for this sea-
son is low relative to the loca
price of wheat and information
| now available indicates that thu

to 1888 will be very large.

be the case a normal barley crol
in 1888 of $4,000 tons from 1,050,
600 acres would again bring sup
plies to approximately 1,000,00
tons. A supply as large as thi
| would almost certainly be accom-
panied by local barley prices low
relative to the local price of whea
and low relative to the price o
barley in other markets. Unless
therefore, the 1888 crop is unusual
ly short the price of barley mex
year is likely to remain low.
I'm view of current low price
of feed grains" he says, sit i
likely that acreages planted il
1893 will be decreased. The cur
rent low prices of feed grains are
however, a stimulus to the increas'
of live stock numbers, particular!
hogs. Hog numbers in the United
States on January 1, 1882, were
100000 above the low of 54,374,
600 in 1881. With price ratio
still favorable to feeding, it is like

feed grain prices at mid-wes
markets in 1888 as compared witt

but an equal improvement in TIT

likely unless the 1888 barley croE

GENEVA SHOCKS WORLD

Jew of US are greatly astonished when
! we read of riots in Chicago, New
York, Paris, London or even in Los An
geles, but riot in Geneva is something
else again.
Switzerland is usually held up to US
as model of law and order and gener-
ally speaking it deserves to be consid-
cred as such.
Yet dozen are dead and scores
wounded as the result of clash between
soldiers and political agitators in the
streets of Geneva yesterday.
The trouble started as the result Of
strike, when Socialists and anti-Social-
lists FLASHED. This original disturbance
made 1t necessary to call out troops to
restore order and the mob turned on the
soldiers. Only when the latter had with
stood considerable abuse and injury from
the mob was the order given to fire, ma
chine guns being turned on the crowd.
1t is particularly ironical that this
should happen in Geneva, home of the
League of Nations and scene of so many
meetings and conferences devoted to
world peace.
Like every other occurrence of its
kind, it is quite likely that many of the
victims of yesterdays shooting were in
nocent bystanders These usually suf-
fer while the really guilty seem to be
protected by luck or circumstances.
There is every reason to believe that
Switzerland will be able to control the
unruly elements within its political life
and that the government will survive,
however, the incident is so much like our
own Boston Massacre, that one can
not help wondering at the possibilities.
