!: IT, s:>>% z II: structive Storm. f.. =

b.Zs-s =
The storm which was quite general.
thrnout the Northwestalast Saturday.
morning swept over this county and
the heavy, gale succeeded in destroy
ing a considerable amount of property,
especially in the vicinity of Spicer.
Small buildings in different parts of
the county have been blown down and
several windmills also suffered from
the severe wind. The recent rains
have Contributed in the destruction of
property and there is surplus of
water everywhere. .; .:.
AT Spicer Saturday mornings storm
was reported as being the worst ever
experienced by the settlers in that
vicinity. The terrific wind washed the
waves of Green Lake high up on the.
shore and many boats belonging to
lake dwellers were smashed into kin
ding wood. Mardin's ice house was
washed out and the docks and two of
his boats lost. Orred's large barn
was. nearly destroyed by the high
waves. Many trees around the lake
were either uprooted Or broken down
by the force of the wind. Some of the
enbankments were partly washed away.
Owners of lakeshore property have
suffe ed more or less from the storm,
but in none of the cases was it quite
as severe as on the Spicer side, which
received the full force from the waves
swept on by the heavy northeast wind.
In many localities gardens have
been stripped of vegetation especially
in high locations. The water did con-
siderable damage in causing washouts
in some instances not only TO- gardens
but also to other property. There are
many swollen streams and in some
parts the entire country seems to be
covered with: one big slough.
Tom Knutson's barn, six miles north
of Pennock, was blown down and
partially destroyed and several chick
ems killed. The building, however,
was a poorly constructed affair and
had poor foundation. 1t is reported
that some horses had been removed
from the barn before the wind came,
so consequently they escaped.
Many reports are circulated regard
ing the destruction of property by
both the gale and washouts, but none
of avery serious character have so
far BEEN reported, The excessive
amount OF moisture has resulted in
many flooded cellars and Willmar is
certainly experiencing her share along
this line: The need of a large public
ditch for drainage purposes is now
felt more than ever and many sugges-
tions are offered as to the best way
for draining the entire city.

city cannot equip itself is an adequate ponce
force. It's numbers are wofully deficient Wnen a
short time ago the gas companies settled their
differences with the public and one of them paid
into the city treasury trife over 100000 there
was great rejoicing on the shores of Lake MICH
igan that the city could hire few more police
men, Then the expedient was hit qpon or rals-
ing the saloon ncense fee from $500 to $1,000.
This would bring into the city treasury enough
money TO increase the force by two thousand
men, The Common Council shrunk from such
despiteful treatment of its friends. the owners
Of its saloon vote. and made the fee only $500.
The project was reopened at once and as there
is to be an election of councilmen soon some
moral pressure Is being exerted after the usual
demonstrative fashion If the council should
see the error of Its way and enact the $1,000
ordinance the public mind would at once resume
its calm and contemplate the mere sixteen"
with a positive sense of virtue.
Chicago needs the extra police, but even with
them "carnivals of crime will continue. The
city Is too American in its respect for legisla-
ton and contempt for law, too Western in its
"reminiscences Of the days of free shooting, TO be
made orderly out of hand Like the rest OF the
country, it needs more law enforcement but
needs, above ALL more law abiding.

NETWORKS EXTRAVAGANZA.

Would that the rentpayers of this city realized
more than they do what municipal extravaganza
really means! If they watched the spending o.
their money by the city officials keenly as they
do expenditures In their own households, there
would be less wasts in the construction of pub
lie buildings fewer and more efficient city off,
Gals, a Simmer budget, a less ponderous city
debt, lighter taxes and small5r rents.
Other great cities govern themselves, as told
elsewhere in The Tribune to-day, much moro
cheapy than New-York does. Londons total
budget amounts to about the same sum that is
expended by this city simply In salaries. And
London has population more than half again
greater than that OF New-York. vast amount
OF New York's Indebtedness, of course represents
investments in public properties returning in
comes which Offset some OF the interest on CITY
bonds, yet, even so, the taxes imposed last year
amounted to $24,000,000 more than London OBJ
tains from all sources of revenue. Berlin, with
half thu population of this municipality, main
tains its government for less than one-fourth OF
NETWORKS entire budget. Glasgow with a
population as large as that of ST Louis, is run
for less than half what the Street Cleaning De-
partment alone costs in this city.
No city In the world has increased Its debt
so rapidly or to such tremendous extent as
has this municipality in the last eight years.
Since the greater city was established In 1898
the city's net Indebtedness has jumped from
S25o000000 to $4200U0000 London's debt
amounts to s290,O00,000. or little more than
half. Comparisons between cities In regard to
municipal economy do not always give a true
perspective, because of certain local conditions
which affect various communities differently.
Notwithstanding, they are Instructive They
should indeed make the New Yorker ask him
SELF when he sees city funds appropriated for
this or that purpose; DO l get my moneys
WORTH" They ought also to make him think
twice before espousing specious schemes of mu-
nicipal ownership.

COLOMBIAN RELATIONS

Sefor Mendozas denial in yesterdays Tfib-
une of Washington rumors was welcome but
should have been superfuous. The idea that
he WAS angry and was about to Withdraw from
his post and sever relations between America
and Colombia. because this country would not
arbitrate the question OF its responsibility for
the Panaman revolution, seemed to US from the
beginning too preposterous for serious consid-
Grafton. Senior Mendoza is too much of a states
man and diplomat TO act that way upon his own
initiative, and that so wise and judicious man
President Reyes should direct or suggest #
is inconceivable. 1t is to be assumed that Se6or
Mendoza will remain in his place, serving the
interests of his country with zeal and dIscre-
tion. and that relations between this country
and Colombia will remain entirely cordial
1t is easy TO understand and TO appreciate Co
lombia's feeling over the Panaman revolution
She has sustained what seems like a heavy
and irreparable loss, and she would like to
get whatever partial indemnity for it may be
obtainable. Nevertheless. we must consider her
claim for indemnity from this country as en-
urely too far fetched and Ill founded to be
worthy Of arbitral consideration. The isthmian
revolution was to an exceptional degree Pam.
man IN its conception, organization and execu-
tion and TO an exceptional degree devoid of
foreign aid or participation. The facts that for
half century the isthmian state had been In
