The Tiffin tribune. (Tiffin, Ohio) 1868-1887, 1870-11-03

The cause Of these losses may be
ascribed 10 several reasons, but the
most reasonable supposition isemigra-
ton West.
Take our own county for instance.
Seneca, in population, has fallen of
twenty-five. This includes, Of course,
the population in all the villages.
Now, Tifin, FostOria, and several 9TH
er towns in the county show largely
increased population in 1870 over 1860
which shows that the loss in the coun-
try is very large. And we cannot say
that the gain in these towns Is the
result Of the loss in the country, for
nine-fenths Of this gain is the result
Of the natural multiplying and re-
plenishlng Of the earth" and the i'm
migration Of people from different
portions Of the States. This accounts
for the increase Of the population in
towns.
In the country, within the last ten
years, and more particularly within
few years past-emigratiOn from
this county to Missouri, Michigan the
far West and to the South has been
very large. This loss by emigration
has not been replaced by new comers.
On the contrary the larger proportion
Of those selling out their lands have
done it TO their wealthy neighbors
who are adding farm to farm. This, too,
seems 10 account for our losses in the
"rural DISTRICTS" and we presume
that most Of the other counties thai
have fallen short in population
can trace it TO this simple reason.
In the counties that have made
great gains-Or any gains-it will be
found that it is theresult of the growth
solely and alone of the towns, except
in the comparatively new counties.
The Cleveland Leader ascribes these
losses to the country in the northern
part ofthe State to the fact that farm
ers are turning theirattention to graz
ing, and it requires more land for that
purpose and they are adding to their
farms. That may be the case in coun-
ties in the thickly settled portions
Of the northeast, but it is not
the case in this section. A ma
ioyity, Of our farmers have farms large
enough to go into stock raising on a
very fair scale and make it a remun-
erative business.
Those who are disposed to find fault
with the fact that Ohio has not in
creased in population as much in ten
years as was expected, must bear in
mind that it is comparatively an old
State. Unlike ten years ago when we
were receiving immigration, it isnow
a State that gives to the West emf
grants and will continue to do so in
the future. Our only increase in pop
ulation henceforth will be in towns
and cities, always excepting the new
counties; and that only in very large
places will depend almost solely upon
the establishment of manufactures.
All things considered, Ohio as one
of the old States, makes a good show
in the result of its last ten years
growth.

''AIY DEAR SIR-When Congress
adjourned in the summer, [ was cred
IDLY informed that a somewhat sys-
tematic effort would be made before
their reassembling in winter to force
a change in the policy have pursued
in the Interior Department. The re-
mOval of the Indian service from the
sphere of ordinary political patron
age has been specially distasteful to
many influential gentlemen in both
Houses, and in order to enable you TO
carry your purpose out successfully, 1
am satisfied that you ought not to be
embarrassed by any other causes of
irritation in the same department.-
My views of the necessity of reform
in the civil service have brought me
more or less into collision with the
plans of our active political managers,
and my sense of duty has obliged me
to oppose some of their methods of
action through the department. l
have no doubt whatever that public
sentiment will sooner or later fully
sustain these efforts at what l regard
as needed reforms, but ] ought not to
overlook the fact that for the present
they involve opposition which it may
not be for the interest of this admin
istration to provoke, and as nay per-
sonal tendency is to be rather mole
than less persistent in the course to
which l am committed, deem il my
duty to place in your hands my resig-
nation of the Office of Secretary of the
Interior, TO take effect IS soon as you
can conveniently determine my sue
cessor. The annual report of the de-
partment will be made at an early
day, and for this and other reasons
I believe the interval prior to the ad-
iournment session of Congress the MT
test for such a change.
'I trust you will permit me to add,
that as the original acceptance OF the
position was an interference with the
plans of life formed, think, with
prudence, a return to my private busi-
ness, so far from being an inconven-
ience OF a disappointment, will be on
ly carrying out what l have most de-
sired to do as soon as il could be done
without embarrassment to you, or a
sacrifice of public duty. Indications
that you might be already troubled
by suggestions on the subject have in
duced me to write at once, without
waiting my return to Washington.

WHEW /!

We fear President Grant is in dan
ger. The Crawford County Forum
gives him a warning and threatens
him. That paper closes an article in
reference to the probabilities that the
United States authorities would see to
it that a fair election was held and
that Democrats should not carry out
their threats of bloOdshed in case they
were not allowed to repeat in vot-
ing as usual. Read, wonder and
fear:
''Mr. G. S. Grant, accidental and
most thoroughly despised President of
the United States, interfere with the
right of New York to select her own
officers, If you dare! You will find a
difference between conquering an al
ready beaten army Of the South and
overthrowing free Government at the
North, with the millions of Demo-
crats and Conservatives who are
sworn to support it. Have you a care!
The tyrannical usurper, Louis Napo-
leon, made war on Germany, and in
six weeks was a prisoner in his enc
my's castle. Initiate your exemplar,
make war on New York, and impris-
Onment or death will be the penalty
OF your unhOly ambition, before the
change Of dozen moons.'
Is not the sarcasm perfect? Is not
the denouncing done up strong? Is
not the comparison witheringiy Wv
id? Is not the threat terribly, forci-
bly, hurled at "Mr. Q. S. Grant?"
No words can express our wonder,
iismsy and fear at such boldness-on
paper. But if we are frightened, what
will be the feelings of "Mr. L. S.
GrantP" If the writer of the article
quoted has only sent Grant a paper
and the bold lion has the courage
are satisfied that the President will
prepare for his latter end. Ifhe does
not do so we fear for the future. We
ask the Forum to deal leniently Will
the erring.
The Tiffin tribune. (Tiffin, Ohio) 1868-1887, 1870-11-03

Owing to the frauds that have TAX
en- place in the elections Of New York
City, the government has decided that
a fair election shall be held-Or rather
when the ROughs OF New York made
threats against the Republicans who
were uncOvering their frauds and try
ing to prevent them, the Government
determined that honesty should gov
ern the election as far as possible and
would furnish troops to enforce legal
voting. To this Democrat papers
raise a great howl, as is customary
when the dishonest actions oftheir
voters are prevented.
No more corrupt men live in the
world than the New York Democratic
politicians. Evidence of this has been
repeatedly shown. Now to their as
sistance comes a new recruit to assist
them in in their swindles. At a re-
cent Tammany meeting after speech
es by Horario Seymour, NJ. c. Kerr
etc. loud calls were mbde for James
Fisk, Jr., the illustrious Erie Railroad
magnate. He made the following
idiotic and characteristic speech
which was received with intensechrer-
ing:
hIf there's anybody can explain
why Pm here 1 wish he'd do so, 1
never went to q political meeting. 1
never in my life voted the Democratic
ticket. But Pm here, let the circum-
stance be accounted for as it may. I
know all the Tammany folks very
well, am associated with Tweed and
Sweeny, and others, in business.
Yet they've never taken the trouble
to ask me whether I'm Republican or
Democrat. Everybody seemed to be
here tonight. / thought I'd come too.
It's an almighty rainy night; Demo-
Gratis never mind the rain. / never
have been able to understand why
Tweed hasn't spoken to me about the
25, 600 able bodied men under me upon
the Erie road. I've wondered a thOus-
and times why they didn't speak it
right out to me that they wanted the
votes Of those men. But I never v0t-
ed the Democratic ticket. / wasn't
going to move in the matter if they
wouldn't ask me; only 1 was drawn
into this thing tonight by my desire
to see Hoffman elected. From to-
night no doubt shall be good DEM
ocrat, and vote my regular three
times a day as wen as anybody. [In-
mense cheering.P
Without dOubtshould Fisk issue the
order four-fifths of the workmen will
vote as directed.
How does that look for Democratic
honesty in New York.
