THE RUM pow Err

Editorial in " Y. Tribune, dug II, loS2.
Great political changes, which ""u'u
otherwise be Impractical, are some
times brought about by a feeling OF re-
sentiment. 1t is in some measure al
excuse for the exercise of Granger leg
isla,ion that they were prompted by
the strong indignation that hign- manu-
ed and defiant conduct on the part OF
railroad officials had aroused. A sun
stronger illustration may be founh I'D
the overthrow of slavery. A large
majority of the people of this country
had been opposed to abohuon. hu'
the insolent and domineering conduct
of pro-slavery Politicians, and their ag-
pressive acts, led to earnest efforts TO
restrict the spread of that institution,
and when these were resisted by rebel
lion and war, the people were rouseo
to exterminate the system at any cost.
1t is a question whether the liquor in
terest has not been preparing for Itself
"A new Illustration of this principle,
The remarkable growth of the prnhlb-
itOry sentiment at the w est Is certain
Nv due, in no small degree, to the ag-
gressive, insolent. and law-defying
course of liquor manufacturers and
liuuor-dealers. For many years they
have been bullying political parties
threatening the slaughter of ever pub
lie man who did not agree with them
domineering over State and local gov
eminent, resisting ever reasonable ef
fort to restrain their traffic within
such limits as the public welfare de
mands, and defying and generally nu.
lifying every law for that purpose
In short, their behavior has been eA
actly like that of the Southern slave
drivers, and, like the South, they hay
arrayed themselves in open hostility I
law. In effect they are In rebellion
against the civil authority, and hav
thus reused feeling which has passe
an abolition amendment in Iowa.

One OF the most curious wind pbepoms
mons is the sand augersn which an N
served on wide plains where the atmo.
phere is hot and dry. When the Union
Pacific railway was being constructed n.
workmen had frequent opportunities 4
witnessing the formation and proeres. a
these sand augern whirlwinds Tbev
were especially frequent in the Lodge pos
Creek valley, through which the RAILWAY
leaving the Platte river, runs in nortbe,
ly direction.
The first indications Of the near approach
of one Of these ''augers" would be the for
nation here and there in the valley Of III
tie dust whirlwinds or baby eyelons,
These would be whisked away BY stronger
rents of cool air coming from no one knew
where, but all drawing across the VALLEY
toward the eastern range OF hills. their
places being almost instantly occupied by
fast advancing, funnel shaped cloud. Ike
that observed hanging over waterspout
which are forming at sea.
From under the surface of this low lying
cloud a swaying tongue Of lead oOlored Va.
por would prolong itself toward the earth,
from which, as if TO meet the monstero
the air, would rise a cloud Of dirt and sand
This earth column would rise higher and
higher, with swift, whirling motion, Be.
coming more compact all the while until
the blue black vapor from above and the
brown mass from below would unite and
form the typical sand auger Of the plains
The diameter Of these augers seldom eI
ceeded fifteen or twenty feet at the ground,
but their bulk increased with their height
until they were merged into the broad sur
face Of the thick murky vapor Of the cloud
above When this occurred, lightning
flashes would sport about the upper sta-
tum Of the cloud and immense hailstone
be formed in the dark point beneath When
all conditions were favorable these hail
stones would be thrown, by centrifugal
force, out from the revolyingoloud. These
were almost invariably Of fiat
disk shape, from three to six inches 10
diameter, an inch 10 an inch and halt
thick, and made up Of alternate layenoi
