disputed. Some Of our farmers tell
n, that the barley and wheat crops
will be really light. Others laugh
at the idea; and we shall vote on the
negative until we have positive proof
that mischief Is in the fields.
LINN CoUNTY.-The present con-
dition of the corn crop indicates an
abundant harvest. Farmers COM
plain of serious injury to the wheat
crop from scab or blight. The crop
will scarcely be an average one. So

Two Intellectual Attempts to DItc
Trains on the C.. 3. & Q. Road.

Scarcely had the public recovered
from the shock oce asioned by the re.
cent daring robbery on the G. r. 1.
q P. r. r., when there comes the
intelligence of attempts at similar
depredations on the G. B. & Q. r.
On Friday last two we'll planned
but unsuccessful efforts were made to
ditch trains on that road, the particu-
lars of which we copy from the Bur-
lington Haaokeye of Goth:
Yesterday morning as the express
leaving here at 4:5O was under full
speed, between Meridian and Men
dota, distractions were discovered
on the track, but the train passed
safely over. Of what these obstruc-
tons consisted we could not fully
ascertain, further than they were
rubbish of some sort. hindered
neither by their lack of success nor
the fear of detection and punishment,
another attempt was made to ditch
the express train that reaches here
on that road at o'clock p. M.
The attempt was made between
Cameron and Galesburg. Four
heavy pieces of iron, each about two
feet in length, one-half inch in thick.
ness and two inches in width, were
tied to the iron rails of the track
and bound to their places by pieces
of telegraph wire beln g wound tight
ly around them. The pieces, by
some strange mistake of the per-
petrators, were fastened on longi.
tudinally or lengthwise on the rail,
and had been piled up so high as to
cause them to be struck by the cow
catcher. This tore away the wires
aud the iron was pushed aside by
the wheels, the train passed on un-
harmed. Not the slightest clue has
yet been discovered of the authors
of this deed-dark and fiendish from
the nature of its intended purpose.
