The Storm at Kansas City.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, April 1.-One of
the most violent wind storms known in
this vicinity for five years has been rag
ing all day and is increasing in violence
every hour. Many houses have been
unroofed and trees blown down all
over the city. One lady was struck by
portions of the Woodland hotel and Sc
vereiy injured. A large tree blew down
on Woodland avenue crushing in cor
ner of the house of A. p. Riddle Re-
ports from abroad are unavailable be-
cause every wire is down. but rumors of q
cyclone come from West Topeka. Trees
have been prostrated all over the city.
The Storm In Nebraska.
OMAHA, Neb., April 2.-Nebraska was
swept by a cyclone Thursday night.
The dreadful tornado struck the state
early in the evening and left destruc-
ton in its wake. The extent of the de-
struction is not yet known, but reports
received show that the thriving town of
Nelson, the county scat of Nuckolis
county, is laid waste and many build
ings, including two churches were
wrecked OF Norfolk.
Reports from other points indicate
that the storm swept northward and
eastward from Nelson with great fury,
but owing to the telegraph wires being
down, it is impossible yet to definitely
outline the track of the storm.
The wind struck Nelson in the south
ern part of the state; and reports indi-
cate that the storm included in its track
the town of Edgar and other places in
Clay county, continuing to Norfolk. 1t
must have traversed over $50 miles of
country in the state including Nuckles,
Clay. Fillmore, York, Polk, Platte and
Madison counties. Great efforts to Sc
cure news from these counties have
been made, but the returns are meager.
In these counties and perhaps in the
track of the cyclone are the towns of
Edgar, Sutton, Grafton, Bradshaw
(Which was wiped out by tornado two
years ago). Madison, York, Stromsburg,
Osceola, Colum bus and many other viii
lagos.
From Clay Cea,ter comes the report
that cyclone passed through the CEN
ter of Clay county between 6 and {
o'clock Thursday night. The wind
blew from south to north.
At Edgar it was reported that a num-
ber of houses were blown down and the
depot wrecked AID two railway cr-
ployes killed. but the report cannot be
confirmed.
From Wahoo comes the news that a
very heavy wind, but probably not L
pert of the cyclone, struck that place
and swept through Saunders county
about s o'clock Thursday night. It did
great damage to barns, houses and
other small frame buildings, also kill
ing some stock The violence Of the
storm was so great that it caused a
great many of the Inhabitants to seek
refuge in cellars and caves. During its
continuance, which was three hours,
much excitement prevailed. Reports
from the country have been received
that considerable hail fell. A farmer,
whose name could not be learned, is re.
ported to have been overtaken by the
storm while returning from town and
killed. The damage done is estimated
ct about 10000.

An Astounding Declaration.

The question of statehood for Utah.
though prominent in the platforms of both
the national parties, is by no means the
only issue in the present campaign. To
make 1t SO would be only going back to
purely local questions or hating to fight
over again the tiresoms battles of the past.
Some stress is being placed in certain
quarters on recent expressions by the
Deseret Nesos, claiming that the Mormon
church. it's authorities and membership,
are indifferent on the subject Of the ad-
mission of Utah into the Union, an indeed
do not desire it. The HERALD hears of no
little establishment and of much indigna-
ton among Mormons OF such an expression
going out, smacking as it does of an in
sinister purpose. A truer statement
probably would have been that the
church, being out OF politics, is
making no special effort as religious body
to make Utah state. To say during the
tendency of political campaign that the
statehood is to land them in body in the
Liberal party, which has no other platform
than Mormon hating, and Is the only or
ganization that OPPOSES the union. THE
HERALD takes the liberty to say that this is
a total Misrepresentation of the feelings of
the great body of the Mormon church mem
bers and leaders.
The statement that the Democrats as
well rs the Republicans have given 50

somewhat confusing calculation of their
attitude on this question Of statehood, Is
as far from the truth as the other deciara-
ton of the NelUs. The national Democratic
platform, endorsed by the Provo conven-
ton, declared in favor OF statehood for all
the territories when population and other
necessary conditions exist. making no ex-
ceptlon of Utah on any ground. The DEM
ocratic platform adopted at Provo says:
I'VE emphatically declare that Utah is fully
prepared in every way for the honors and re-
sponsibilities of a sovereign state, and we
pledge ourselves to labor INCREASINGLY until this
proud position is achieved"
There is no ambiguity nor confusing
calculation" about this. whatever there
may be in Republican utterances, and when
the Nelus accuses the Democratic party of
playing only for effect.n it 10 doing the
party great injustice and is not III accord
with the policy Of fair play which has been
characteristic of that paper.
In its zeal to state the non-political atti-
tude of the Mormon church officials in
their ecclesiastical capacity, our neighbor
has gone too far, and its position is not
warranted by the state of public feeling in
Utah nor by the sentiments Of vast ma
iority of the people it claims to represent.

Grover Cleveland.

No one who reads the unterances of
GROVER CLEVELAND in 1892. and compares
them with his utterances OF eight or nine
years ago, can fail to be struck with his
great and wonderful intellectual growth.
He was almost an entire stranger 10 Wash
ington when he delivered his inaugural.
His acquaintance with the public men out
side of New York was quite circumscribed.
His vision was, therefore, a limited one.
With his four years. term in office, contin-
uing the industry he showed in disposing
of public business whilst at Albany, he
obtained complete mastery OF the details
of the government. such as has never been
possessed by any other occupant of the
White House.
And still Mr.. CLEyELAND's letters and
speeches, since his retirement from the
capital. have exhibited a development in
the science OF government which must be
considered marvellous in man so much
occupied otherwise. The people of the
country all realize this, and regard him as
truly what CHAUNCEY M. DEPEw charac-
terized him-'s typical American" The
fact of getting the nomination of the De-
mocracy for the third time as their presi-
dental standard bearer has no parallel in
history, when all the circumstances are
considered; and it gives confidence that
the enthusiasm of his party. with the re-
spect and admiration OF tens of thousands
politically opposed to him, will carry him
again, and more triumphantly, to the ma
TONS first place. There we shall expect
a still further evolution and rounding out
of Mr.. CLEvELAND's capabilities. If not a
brilliant mau, in the sense that WEBSTER
and CLAY were brilliant there is no doubt
that the close of his term of office, and prac-
tically of his political career, will return
him to private life as an eminently use
every American will be delighted to honor

Wool Pulling.

Now let the CANNON speakers, who have
had 80 much to say about how the Demo-
cratic policy would injure the wool
growers. give US something about the wool
wearers. Nearly all the prominent sheep
ranchers are going TO vote the Democratic
ticket, and oil of them together wouldn't
affect the result materially; but the people
who wear wooden goods are everywhere
and what do they say about having 10 pay
30 per cent. more for a coat or pair Of
trousers than they would be required to
do if it were not for the high protective
tariff?
With free wool the workingmen could
buy Atwood clothing that would outwear
three of the present suits. made, as they
are. partly of cotton or shoddy. So that,
in addition to paying more than 80 per
cent. tariff tax in price, under the present
system he gets inferior goods. Cheap and
nasty is bad enough, but dear and nasty is
intolerable.
The protective tariff on wool doesn't
protect anybody in the west. The kind of
wool it protects Is not grown in the noun
tain region. and here 1t doesn't require any
protection.

The Rich Mans Party.

Mr.. WHITELAw REID has produced an
essay of 5000 words in imitation of BEN
JAMIN HARRIsoN's formal acceptance of the
Minneapolis nomination, and it reads as
though it was an emanation of the disease
called big head.n It's length. the lateness
of its appearance, and the dry character of
its contents, mark it for oblivion. The
proof-reader and the editorial topic-hunter,
however, do not escape.
Mr.. REID reiterates the Republican
claim that the tariff should cover
the difference in home and foreign
wages, aud boldly declares the untruth
What Democrats repudiate is the idea that
such difference is the basis of the protec-
tive tariff. which lays duties a hundred
fold greater. Manufacturers steadily re-
fuse to tell the proportion of the cost of
protected articles which labor bears, as
was the case with the Homestead manager,
Mr.. FRIcK, few months ago; and all
know that the cause of the numerous
labor strikes is that the manufacturers
will not pay their workmen fair proper
ton of their profits. 1t was not 80 much
that the Homestead hauds were not receiv-
ing fair wages that they struck. but that,
as the policy OF protection was organized
ostensibly in behalf of labor, they de-
manded their part of the protection money.
The monopolists want 1t all, and are will
ing to impor. the pauper labor, we hear SO
much about, to compete with homo work
meu and cheaper wages.
Another conspicuous point in REID's
letter is the bold and true statement made
for the continued support of the protected
interests, that, "Should the American peo-
pie now choose the Republican candidates
the present tariff mould stand, or when
amended would only be so changed as to
insure closer conformity to the principles on
tchich 1t stands" In other words, if the
present binding tariff is changed at all I'M
der the Republican rule, 1t will be drawn
tighter across tue veins and muscles of the
common people.
This is what the Democratic press and
Democratic speakers have been charging
all along The Infant INDUSTRIES crying
for little pap during the measly period,
are to be sucked through life. The tariff,
levied to keep the country out of finan-
cisl stress caused by great war, is to be
con tinued and increased, more than q
quarter OF century after the wars close,
and when the revenues. economically ad-
ministered, would place two hundred ad-
ditional millions of money per annum to
the extinguishment of the national debt
Mr. REID, who poses as a representative of
the aristocracy OF wealth in this country,
presents statements that may do very well
in the direction Of holding the capitalists
aud great trusts of the east to the Repub-
lican party, but be would make poor out
at electioneering for votes among the yeo-
marry of the land.
