Work ofthe Tornado.

The awful calamity that befel Fort
Scott, Ark. was one Of those visitations
for which no earthly power was response
bic save the power Of the aroused ele-
ments of the air. No human hand can
stay the ruthless destruction by the
tornado, and those who escape can only
view the devastation wrought. sorrow
for the dead, sympathize with the
wounded, and the grief-stricken people
80 suddenly bereft of their loved ones,
and turn their attention to she work of
relieving the suffering. The money loss
BY the destruction OF Invaluable property,
the wip!ng out of homes by a storm de-
.scribed as one OF awful grandeur" are
but significant affections compared With
the suffering brought TO human hearts.
On such an occasion the sympathies of a
whole nation so out TO the stricken
community.
No calamity is ter than that which
comes with the swiftness of the wind.
with scarcely a warning, and leaves
death and dcsolation in It's wake. There
is little hope for escape, and when, as in
the Fort Scott case the dreadful storm
comes in the silence OF the night, when
the community is peacefully asleep, un-
conscious of the danger. the chances that
any will be spared are reduced TO the.
minimum.

DLSPENSARY SYSTEM SUSTAINED.

The United States supreme court
has rendered decision that is of inter
est to the people of Terrell county
establishing as it does the constitu-
tiOnality of the dispensary system. 1t
is the doom of original package
houses, and will keep closed the Que it
was proposed to open in Dawson.
The case in which the decision in
question was rendered went from
South Carolina, and while it is held by
the court that under the interstate
commerce law an individual may i'm
port liquor into a state for personal
use it is no less positively declared
that it cannot be brought into a state
in any quantity or shape and sold CON
trary to the laws governing its sale.
This establishes the right Of state
to regulate the whiskey traffic in its
own borders, and means shat the dis
pensary system is here to stay. 1t is a
system for the sale Of intoxicantS that
Is rapidly growing in favor, and in the
opinion of The News it will soon be
recognized as the best solution Of the
whlskey problem.

In fact, his friends are enthusiastic in
tue belief that his nomination is now
certain, and that his majority in the

he has made destructive inrOads upon

WHAT it cost the newspapers to re-

from one illustration. On May 7 and

mission of which the telegraph COM
pany was paid $1,759.2O. Under ord-
