by the robbers, but no one was injured.
Sheriff Larson, of this place, with a
posse, has gone in pursuit.
A later report says that one of the
bandits covered the engineer and fire.
man with revolvers. The other three
went through the coaches, and secured
about $500 from the passengers. Ex-
press Messenger Knickerbocker, for
the WelIs-Fargo company. had made
his exchange with the station agent at
the last station passed, and consequent
ly when the thieves broke into his ear
they found but $500. The trainmen
and passengers were taken completely
by surprise, and offered no resistance.
When they jumped from the train they
fired several shots one of which went
through the express, that being the

TIE OHIO IDEA MENACED.

The annual election in Cincinnati is
at hand, and the Republicans have split
into two factions, one called the silk
stockings and the other the class that
don't have much to do with stockings
of any kind. tits charged that an oath
bound organization has been running
the party a good while. In consequence
the Ohio idea is in danger of dismem-
berment. In a general way there is a
ripping up of party linen that alarms
the leaders. Gov. FOSTER says: 1T
wouldn't take much fooling on our
part to make the legislature Democrat

THAT is a solid, cold block of truth
full foot thick" As there is soon to be
a senator to elect in place of Dem o.
crat, there is growing interest and hope
fulness in the situation.

A BLOODY DUEL.
Two Japanese Girls Fight With
swords,

Los ANGELES, Cal, March 21.-A
brutal fight occurred last night in sub
urban sporting resort, the chief at
traction of which is several young Jap
anese girls, recently imported, who
speak no English. For some cause two
of the girls became involved in a dis
pute. which ended in duel with short
bladed japanese swords. They attacked
each other, with no attempt by the
spectators, most of whom were Amer
leans, to Interfere. Each proved skill
full in the use of the weapon. and both
were soon dripping with blood from
numerous cuts. The affair would GER
tainly have ended in the death of one,
if not both, had not the clash of steel
attracted passing policeman, who en-
tered the place. Neither girl received
mortal wounds, but both were slashed
all over the upper part of the body.

AN INSTANCE.

Its remarkable fact that since HAIR
RIsoN's Inauguration, failures in.the iron
manufacturing trade have averaged one
a day. We are not going to charge these
failures up to the protective tariff, but
we simply propose to call attention to
the fact that if CLEVELAND had been
reelected every Republican organ in
the country would have laid them at the
door of Democratic hostility to indus
trial interests. These failures serve to
illustrate the truth that protection does
not protect. If there is any one interest
in the country that can claim to be ben
Gifted by protection, it is the business of
iron manufacturing. And yet it is going
to pieces under high tariff policy with
all the rapidity that free trade could
possibly suggest.
