Wind, Rain and Hail Played
Havoc Last Thurs
day.
PROPERTY DAMAGE GREAT.
Trees UprOOted, Barns Blown
Down, River Out Of
Banks.

A heavy storm struck the neigh
borhood of Dave Ralston, about five
miles North. East Of the city. last
Thursday about 4 o'clock. The wind
partook of the nature of a cyclone
and blew with terrific force. II
was followed by cloud burst of
rain and hail, the hailstones being
nearly the size of partridge eggs.
The rain poured down in torrents
for nearly an hour and a half. In
twenty minutes the river was out
of its banks and in a very short time
the low places were turned into
small lakes.
The roof Of a tenant house belong
ing to Sam Lacey was blown off.
A large tree in Dave Ralston's
yard was blown down and the door
Of a stable was wrenched from the
hinges.
A barn on the premises of Mrs.
Robert E kin was blown down.
Sam Morris barn was blown down
Wheat in some sections was blown
flat to the ground.
The hail continued to fall for some
time and the growing corn in many
places was stripped, leaving the
stalks looking like small sticks stuck
in the ground.
The intensity of the storm forced
all people working in the fields t
seek shelter and the thunder anC
lightning, which lasted for some
time, frightened women and chill
dren nearly out of their wits.
The uncut wheat will straighter
up some before being harvested anC
that already cut and shocked will
not be damaged. but the loss entaileC
by buildings being blown down anC
fencing torn to pieces will be pretty
heavy in the aggregate.

The County Committee in Line.

The New York County Republican Committee put
itself on record Thursday evening by a unanimous
vote in favor OF calling special Republican national
convention. Opinion here naturally approves max
ing national conventions representative Of the actual
voters and the primary purpose of a special conven
ton this year would he to abolish the existing unfair
and Anticipated system Of representation.
New York supports the distribution of delegate
power In accordance with the Republican vote cast
because such plan is just in itself and helpful in
encouraging party growth But there is an addi-
tional reason why the Republicans of this state
should welcome the reform which the special con-
ventlon is to put through. New York cast larger
vote for Taft last fall than any other state did and
in the convention Of 1916 1t will have much larger
representation proportionately than 1t has had
before The voters will be able TO give much fuller
effect than In the past to their ideas and preferences
New York was right the question of represen-
tation when its delegation voted solidy for the
Burke resolution in the national convention of 1908

A Better Compensation Bill Next Time.

Nobody except the casualty insurance companies Is
likely 10 shed tears Governor Suffers veto or
the Foley workmens compensation bill. 1T was
fought vigorously by labor organizations, whose
members would have comprised majority OF those
entitled to benefits under its provisions. 1t may
have represented the best judgment Of the State In
surance Department but 1t was under the suspicion
Of large part of the general public. The Governor
is probably right when he holds that its enactment
would not have been considered an adequate fulfil
ment of the party's platform pledge.
While the Murtaugh-Jackson bill. advocated by the
labor unions and rejected by the Legislature. was
n better bill than the one just vetoed, 1t was by no
means so good a measure this state should put on
the statute books Any law should be more carefully
worked out in its details than either of them to be
worthy of acceptance by the Governor. The fact
that the Foley bill practically turned over the Work
men TO the mercy of the casualty companies was
only the chief of many faults In that measure which
didn't far surpass the faults in the Murtaugh
measure.
The Governor undoubtedly will submit the subject
Of workmens compensation to the Legislature In
special session for consideration II Is to be hoped
the lawmakers will give TO it then the careful atten-
ton and serious study which they denied 1t at the
regular session.

Grit, Not Graft, in the Ranks.

patrolmen were decorated with medals for saving
citizens from drowning. Scarcely day passes with
ont the recording of some instance of signal BRAY
cry self-sacriice heroic devotion 10 duty on the
part of some member OF the uniformed police force
of the lower grades They are the men TO whom the
citizen turns when in trouble or danger and the
confidence reposed in them is not misplaced.
What sad contrast between the sturdy. honest

facing the bullets of rum-crazed desperate. and
the handcufed inspector on his way to serve out
prison senten'e. Mayor Gaynor and Commissioner
Waldo are right when they say the police force Is
sound II is sound, and wholesome, save for the
grafters at the top-excrescences whose anputalion
will help the police force and the city alike.
What the force needs is few more of its high

permit the honest men TO give honest service. The
material is sound. There's grit, not graft, in the
ranks.
