The Storm,

The storm of Sunday was the most
widespread in years From ali sections of
the country comes tidings of its work, es"
pecialIy from the southwest where 1t
wrought great destruction of life and prop
erty. The most heartrending incident OF
its doings is the destruction Of Marshheld'
Mo-, which town was entirely destroyed,
and over so killed besides nearly $50
wounded. 1t came without warning and
dealt destruction unstintedly and in short
order. The accounts from the Ill fated
town are still meagre. but enough IS known
to make the tale a sorrowful one indeed.
Whole families were stricken, churches
leveled, men. women and children killed,
and many burned to death. The reports
from Marshfeld are heartrending il the
extreme, while from other towns iu the
southwest there are many Instances OF loss
of life and great destruction of property.
It is a long time since SO widespread des"
truction was recorded as one days work.

The Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1877-1885, 1880-04-20

The plan of the Grant managers seems to
be to force his nomination and trust to the
party lash to carry him through. This is
difficult to do--as the opposition to the
third term is now so deep rooted, that
the managerial dictate will fail to be
potent with a very large following who
will not be driven like cattle to the polls
The opposition to Grant is from the most
intelligent class of the Republican party -
that element.which followed the leadership
of Sumner, Chase and Bristow, men who
value good government as paramount te
oartv greed. Let the managers go ahead
with the third term programme. it canno'
win, Grant cannot be elected.
The Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1877-1885, 1880-04-20

To talk of Grant carrying any OF the
southern states, is all moonshine. The
third termers themselves don't believe
word of it, and are only playing a good
card for the benefit of gulIible party
adherents, when they make the claim
Grant could not carry single electora
vote in the south. He knows it-Camer-
on, ConkIing and Logan know it as we'll
but if By claiming that Grant can dsgid'
the south will secure his nomination. tht
fimsy story will have answered the pur'
