tits not only an interesting but sug-
pestlve and very important study which
the table given in our local columns this
morning furnishes. Why it is that the
great increase in the value Of property
is all I'm the city, while the country
shows Up proportionate decrease?
Tn Ohio county an Increase Of over
three millions in the valuation Of city
property I'm the past decade stands side
by side with a decrease Of over a quar-
ter OF a mlllion-St14 an acre-in farm
property 10 the same time.
Recon, census statistics show the
same condition all over the country.
Farm LANDS are decreasing la volume ey-
cry day, while city property is on the
jump everywhere.
The farmer is very evidently not "in
ill.,
The 'protected" wages Of American
labor are on the drop at toboggan speed.

Danger! Dangerl

Two years ago the Republican major
ity in the Billion Congress, with its
greedy fingers elbow-deep in the peo-
pies money, would have laughed at
anybody who warned it that there was
retributlon on the other side Of No
vember.
The Democratic majority Of the Fifty
second House was elected on the square
issue of retrenchment. 1t is pledged to
economy by its own volition and vote.
1t is bound to carry out the peoples
mandate by every consideration OF per-
sonal honor, political good faith, and
public duty. That there should be
Democrats In this majority who are do
ing their level best to equal and sur
pass the billion record Of the Billion
Congress is almost beyond belief.
They are fools and traitors. Fools,
because they are inviting political
destruction by the same wave Of honest
indignation that swept their Republican
predecessors out and swept them in.
Traitors, because with incredible selfish
ness they are betraying their party at
the critical juncture in their party s
fortunes.
Plain English is the thing for these
Democratic fools and these traitors to
Democracy. Let them have 1t from
every side!

A BIG LEAP
In the Price of May Corn--It Advances
Fifteen Cents on the Bushel-Ed. Par
bridge Is Not Caught in the UPturn'

In the Price of May COrn-It Advances
Fifteen Cents on the BusheI--Ed. Par
bridge Is Not Caught in the UPturn.
CHICAGO, May 22.-May corn shot up
from sixty to seventy-fve cents yeSter-
day, and the bulls had everything their
own way.
1t didn't 90 up by fractions, either,
but by cents at time, jumping from
Sixty-iive to seventy cents at one bound.
This condition of affairs may have
been partly owing TO the fact that Ed.
Partridge was doing absolutely moth
ing. He is credited with having COW
cred his short sales of corn, and being
now in condition TO take advantage OF a
turn in the market.
A rumOr was floating around the Board,
however, that p. d. Armour had been
caught short on corn, and that the re-
markable activity in May was due to a
desire on the part of the bulls to relieve
him Of some of his wealth. That the
price of May corn is due to manipula-
ton can be seen plainly from the New
York and ST. Louis quotations. AT 81.
Louis it was quoted at 1850 and in
New York at 5S4c.
The great short interest in this mar
ket is said to be by St. Louis and New
York parties, but the fact is that they
are making no effort TO cover, realizing
that il would be useless 10 try and buy
in this market, and hoping that some
thing will turn up before settling day
which is week from yesterday-to
break prices.
There does not seem to be anything
on which TO base this last hope, how
ever. The recent rains have made the
country roads simply impossible, and
even though the high prices here would
tempt the farmers TO rush forward all
the corn they have, it is beyond their
power to get it to the railways.
Even what little corn is arriving, ow-
ing TO the deluge to which it has been
subjected en- route, will not stand in
SDection, and is therefore useless TO ap-
Div to contracts. There is nothing for
the shorts to do but to take their medi-
cine.
The rumors regarding 2. d. Armour
place that gentleman all the way from
1 600. 600 to 5000, 600 bushels short. Mr..
Armour is said to have gone into deal
with New York and ST. Louis people,
and in the former city certain Standard
Oil magnates are believed TO be inter
eSted. Every time an attempt was made
this morning to buy May corn the price
shot up like a rocket.

UTICA, n, Y, May 22.-Houck and
Hazeltine occupied two hours and
twenty-five minutes yesterday on the
fifteen miles between Vernon and this
city. From Vernon TO Clarks Mills
they rode between the rails OF the West
Shore road, and then took the highway.
The path was in fearful shape, and as
the riders padded down Genesee street
they we're greeted with cheers from the
hundreds Of spectators, who had waited
their coming since o'clock.
Both riders, accompanied by Bradley
and Hall Of the Syracuse Club, were
covered with mud, and were much IA
tigued. They were taken to the Utica
cycling club house, where they were en-
tertained.
At SPA p. m. p c. Hames and Frank

WHAT is 1T?
a Peculiar Light Seen in the Western
Sky.

Peculiar Light seen IN the western
Sky.
At half past twelve o'clock this morn
ing a group of about twenty-five men,
including reporters, hackdrivers, hotel
men, travelling men, etc, were gathered
at the Mcclure House corner watching
a somewhat peculiar phenomenon in
the western sky. The sky was covered
with clouds, and not star could be
seen, but just over Bridgeport, and at
a heighth of about 30 degrees above the
horizon, a bright variable light could be
seen. 1t had slow, drifting motion to
the north, and varied from the size OF a
star of the third or fourth magnitude to
that of the first, and at the same time
changed it's color from white to a steel
blue, and then to q brilliant red. No
one could explain the object upon any
other satisfactory hypothesis than that
ii was a balloon fitted with an electric
light.
A story got out that it was an cleo
trio light floating from balloon over
the Worlds fair grounds at Chicago,
but that is impossible, as no known
light could be seen that far, and 10
would have to be about ten miles above
the surface of the earth at Chicago to
be seen at Wheeling, if the light was
powerful enough to carry" that dis
lance.
