SPLENDID OCTOBER DiIs.-We are

| SPLENDID OCTOBER DAYs.7-We are
getting them now. They sre brilliant
beyond all words. 1t 10 the culmina'
ton of the season. The now swiftly
turning year recedes from its last phase
of the after-summer, in all the glory
OF brilliant skies and painted moun'
tains and woodlands. A ride LOW, OIL
few miles ON almost any of the ave
nues leading from the city into the
country will develop many beautiful
views. The trees, which are usually
brightest in color at this season, are
now at the full perfection OF their
autumnal hues. Day after day the
skies are so brilliantly clear that far
objects seem near, and the food oil
sunlight, tempered now by the angle at
which we get it, lights up the wooded
hillsides and the painted mountains
with glory which sometimes
almost seems 10 belong to 8
better than any earthly cline.
The mornings are crisp, sparkling, in
spireing; full of October's frosty and
invigorsting breath and brilliant with a
wealth OF varied color surprising any
thing known to the summer; the moons
fairly glow, with the combined effect OF
the still warm sun and the variety OF
colors endlessly outspread; and the
afternoons are full OF the bright but
quiet beauty peculiar to the afternoons
of the fret half OF October. These al
ternoons develope the most perfect il
Illustrations OF the peculiar spirit of the
seasou-steeped, as they are, in the
very atmosphere Of what may be call
ed the autumnal sentiment still, clear,
soft and sunny, but pulsipg all through
with an interior heart beat Of half sad
ness-au impalpable undertone Of PEN
siveness, which breathes Of life and
warmth and color passing away"
Yet the brilliant beauty OF the sky and
the landscape lie, after all, its cheap ex-
preston. The gorgeousness OF the
colors is only equaled by their variety,

and asked, isn't that Sweeney in that
buggy" Mr.. Baker replied he believed
it was, and paid no more attention to it.
We talked about the Ohio election and
Ohio newspapers until we got to the
Eighth ward switch, when the buggy
in which were seated Mr.. Sweeney
and his friend had stopped we saw
Sweeney jump from his seat and run
to the rear end Of the car in which the
two OF US were seated, the German hav-
ing left at the upper corner. AS he
came towards the car he drew 8 navy
revolver. We said 10 Mr. Baker Jump,
Baker, he is after you" AS Mr..
Baker rose to his feet Sweeney
shot into the car, the bullet coming
closer to our head than we are fond of
having them come. Mr.. Baker left
the car by the front door as a second
bullet came crashing through the win
dow of the car. AS we got off the Car
we received bullet through the right
shoulder that ruined the sleeve OF our
best coat. Just here ii occurred to us
that we were personally interested in
the fight land we did our level best to
get even. After Sweeney emptied
his fret revolver at Mr.. Baker having
put hole through the latters Goa. he
drew q second one and blazed away most
recklessly snd Unfortunately, one
ball passing our ear and causing deaf
ness and another striking and splinter

changed without particular damage eS.

Mr.. Bakers weapon proving worth
less he ran into store next to
Bixson barber shop to avoid Sweeney's
balls. Az he started in the door Mr..
Sweeney drew his weapon TO shoot him
in the back. and just at the moment
officer Adam Wernig rushed in with a
drawn revolver and caught Sweeney's
arm before the weapon WAS discharged,
taking him prisoner. Mr.. Wernig de-
serves the highest praise for the lnt1e'
pidity OF his conduct. He has got the
sand to do his duty. We feel that it
is 10 his efforts that the encounter did
\ not result fatally.
All the combatants were arrested and
taken before Squire Johnston where
they waived an examination and gave
bail for their appearance before the
Circuit Court.
Why we were attacked we can't con-
ceive. Mr.. Sweeney and his friends
all know that we are not the political
editor Of this paper, and his shooting at
as was mere wantonness. His grew

our side OF the paper. We have heard
that he said he intended TO clean out

not succeed in executing his threat he

but we feel deeply the great losses which
OR State is suffering to-day, for want
O. this union Of effort among the farmers
to secure such leGi Station as civilized coun-
tries generally enjoy. Our best young
men are being driven away. Anticipated
old fogies, political bummers and unscru-
pu'ous adventurers too often fill the places
which that solid and sterling class of men
who have stake in the future of the COM
monwealth ought to occupy.
We entreat the farmers of every county
to meet and organize in the towns and
counties, and prepare to present an impos-
ing front to the common enemy-the great
army of idlers. non-producers, and go.be-
tweens who now absorb all the surplus
products of their hard toll. To the per-
lection of such an organization, everything
else should be postponed. Without it no
adequate measures of relief will be even
respectfully considered, much less adopted.
If the farmers of the State will not organ
ize their case is hopeless, and they deserve
