LEMARs, Ia, Sept. 22.-The worst
storm clouds ever witnessed by the peo-
pie of this city passed over here about
$50 p. m. yesterday. A heavy bank of
rain clouds to the north, kept in place
by a strong north wind. acted as a wall
against which "a strong south current
of air rushed in vain, and returning re-
ceived a circular motion which very
quickly impaired to tho sky the aspect
of a roaring, seething body Of water.
The atmospheric disturbance was terri
BILE and vas one Of the grandest sights
conceivable. The conditions were per-
feet for a cyclone and as long arms from
the cloud were extended towards the
earth the people of LeMars commenced
to realize the awful destruction IL
might wreak upon the city. One arm
touched the ground on a hill n mile
north Of town, taking a barn and scat
tering n straw pile over several acres.
The disturbance finally passed off, the
more dangerous looking clouds going
northeast, in the direction of Seney.
The farm OF A. Johnson, north Of
LcMars, was also reached by the cy-
clone and his barn and sheds utterly
destroyed. Reports are coming in OF
other damage done along the road to
Seney. and ii appears that the country
affected will cover a large surface. The
country north OF town is badly flooded.
giving evidence of a tremendous rain
or q small eloudburst.

"Tarin Reform"
Ireland for Protection.

Our fiscal system is very liberal, NJ
lowing all nations to send their prod
ucts free into the markets Of the United
Kingdom; and. on the other hand, all
nations have disappointed the eXpecta-
tions formed when protection was
abandoned. Sir Robert Peel, Mr.. Rich
ard Golden and others. assured those
connected with the soil hat free trade
would unlock the door of the millen-
mum and VIC should be happy. Agri-
culture a nd manufactures would -four
ish; for prices of corn and cattle were
sure to be maintained, and the nations
of the world might be relied upon TO
follow England's example. The pre-
dictions were not in harmony with
facts, as experience testifies. With
wheat at thirty shillings a quarter, the
farmers hopes have disappeared, and,
owing to various causes, manufacture
ing efforts are paralyzed. In the for
mer case high farming and low farm
ing have been tried in vain; whiln in
%h-l~-- ~-S~~ithatanding improved
machinery and the alleged superiority
of British workmen, foreigners can
bring their products into our leading
industrial centers and undersell home
products. We are asked, however, to
praise the virtues of free trade, al
though it has done grevious harm to
our material interests and left us de-
pendent upon aliens for two-thirds of
our daily bread.-Belfast News Letter,
July IA. 1894.

Our Consumption of Wool.

The total supply of raw wool for the
fiscal year ending June 80, 1898, was
about $50, 900, 600 pounds, in addition TO
the importation of about SIS, 900 600
worth of imported cloth at the foreign
value. 1t is estimated hat the wool
required to produce these goods was
over three pounds of unwashed wool
per dollars worth of goods. This
would, therefore, make a total con-
sumption by the American people of
nearly $50, DOC. 900 pounds of raw wool,
equal to about 81 per cent. of the
worlds supply. As the American peo-
pie are only about 5 per cent. of the
worlds population, and as they use 81
per cent. of the worlds production Of
wool, the per capita consumption is
nine and three-fourths pounds, which
is the largest by any nation in the
world. Ii is, therefore, not surprising
that foreigners are jubilant over the
prospect of being able to secure a
greater share of the United States mar
ket, which advocates of the Wilson bill
declare will be the result of its becom-
ing a law, depriving the American pro-
Queer Of just so much of the American
market as this bill proposes to give to
! the foreigner; for whatever additional
employment is thus given to the for
eigner, to that extent is the amoun OF
work for our own people lessened.
