Ooh, oh, ohhhh... without using Google or the like... ow. Um. Oh golly, I'll just put my neck out:

Well, I'm gratified to see Twain credited with it here, but this site says it was Vice President Thomas R. Marshall under Woodrow Wilson in 1917.

Twain gets credit for a lot of things. This one is, indeed, T.R. Marshall.
