One of the most startling aud surpria-
ing revelations made by the census is the
enormous decrease in. farm values in the
State of Ohio, which amounts to $50, ,000,.
600, being decrease of over 10 per cent.
in the decade. How is it to be accounted
for7 Mr.. Senator Sherman, feeling the
necessity of defending his high protective
doctrines, attempts to explain it upon the
ground that these counties which show a
decrease are not manufacturing counties,
nor adjacent to manufacturing counties,
but later returns from the census do not
bear the Senator out in this statement for
the county of Butler, which lies within a
dozen miles of Cincinnati, and its North
ern line not fifteen miles from Day ton
with its 10000 population, engaged in
various manufacturing Industries, shows
the largest decrease of any county in the
State, it being over IL per cent. Franklin
county, which contains the capital of the
State, city that shows an increase of
nearly II per cent. in the decade, shows
a decrease of $1,138,3S6 in farm values
within the ten years. The counties
which contain the coal areas of the State
and which are within easy reach of thirty.
ing and populoEs cities exhibit the same
phenomenon. And even in Ashtabula,
which is the. greatest dairy county of the
State, and within easy reach of two -four.
ishiug cities and besides containing with.
in its borders two thriving lake ports, one
OF which has sprung up within the decade,
and receives more iron than any other
port on the lake, the real estate valuation
shows falling off of from 5 to 25 per
cent. And now all over the State, so far
as the returns 60, there is the same state
of things, pteady decrease in the value
of farm property. The Senator
will have to find more general and
far reaching cause than the one
he assigns and to my mind it is
found in the fact of the excessive favors
shown the manufacturer and the heavy
burdens laid upon the farmer by an ex-
cessively high protective tariff, which has
amounted to annual tributes of per cent
9 year. The logic of these tremendous
facts is against Mr.. Senator Sherman, and
it is doubtful if the farmers of the State,
with these eye openers before them, can
longer be induced to vote to continue
Ohio's tribute to this stupendous and
suicidal folly. Nor is Ohio alone in this
regard, for the farmers of Kansas, blindly
partisan though they have been for years,
by the hard logic of their depleted pock.
books, are awakening to the injustice of
one class being made to nav tribute to
another, and in one County in particular
they have united in a petition to the
Circuit Judge to stay the proceedings in
the numerous suits under foreclosure
pending in his Court. Verify, the farmers
are being educated, in a rough school,
though it be, but when they become
thoroughly informed and aroused there
will be tremendous political cyclone in
this country. 4

Daring Train Robbers.

TOLEDO, OH1o, October 2.-The
Blades special from Carey, Ohio, gives
an account of a bold train robbery this
morning on the Cincinnati, Sandusky and
Cleveland railroad, between that place
ard Urbana.
Immediately after the train left Urbana
two masked men, with concealed revol-
yers, entered the express car and compell-
ed the Adams Express messenger, A. L.
Scudder, to throw up his hands. They
then tied him securely, robbed the safe Of
packages containing several thousand
dollars and other Valuables.
While they we're at work, brakeman
attempted to enter the car and was shot
at by one of the robbers. He gave the
alarm, and the train was slowed up to
give an opportunity to capture the robbers
but they jumped from the train just as il
was entering West Liberty and disap-
peared in the darkness, it being then just
about $3.50 o'clock.
Messenger Seudder was bound in his
chair with a wash line that the robbers
brought with them. One of them, whom
the other called "Jack," tried to kill
Scudder before leaving the car. Placing
his revolver at his head he pulled the
trigger, but the cartridge failed to ex.
plode. The other robber then prevented
him from trying again.
When the train pulled out of West
Liberty the two scoundrels got aboard
again, holding the entire crew at bay.
Sender, who had been released, opened
fire on them with pistol from his car
door, but was compelled to retreat. The
robbers kept on board until Bellefontaine
was reached, when they again jumped Of
and disappeared. The officers at Belle
fontaine are seaching for them. Scuddel
is about fifty years old and lives in Gin
cinnati and has been on this run since the
Adams Company took charge of the e1-
press business upon it about three years
ago. BE was previously in the same
company's employ on the other river
lines He had just received his months
salary, and that was among the booty.

The Anderson County Farmers Alli-
ance met on last Friday, 3rd October, in
its regular quarterly meeting.
About 1876 delegates were in attendance
and showed deep interest in the proceed
ings througho President Norris made
an interesting and instructive talk in
opening, on the progress that the Alliance
had made, which gave great satisfaction
and encouragement to those who heard
it.
a committee was appointed to look into
the matter of building an Alliance ware.
house at Anderson, to report at call
meeting. The scheme is generally looked
on with favor by Alliancemen, and we
think it would undoubtedly be of great
benefit to the farmers of the County. If
we can't get the sub treasures we should
get the nearest to it ne can.
There were great many other matters
attended to that were not of q public ma
ture, and taking it altogether we think it
one of the most business meetings that
the County Alliance has had. and it
didn't show the least sign of decay or 8
cessation of interest on the part of the
farmers.
We offered our resignation as editor of
this column which was accepted, and re
take this occasion to thank the publishers
and readers of this paper for the courtesy
that has been shown Us during our con-
nection with them.
