TACKLED The WRONG MAN.
Daring Attsmpt to Rob Cleveland Bans
In Rroad DAxIirht

Daring Attempt to Rob Cleveland Bank
in Broad Daylight.
CLEVELAND. Nov. liza daring attempt
was made to rob the Society for Savings
yesterday, which nearly resulted In the
murder of Colonel Myron T. Herrick,
treasurer Of the institution. Owing to the
bravery Of Colonel Herrick the robber
was baked, although the treasurer had o
narrow escape from death, bullet fred
by the robber passing through his coat
and vest and burying itself in the frame
of an office door.
A stranger entered the bank and asked
for private interview. Colonel Herrick
led him into the trustees room, the
stranger closing the door behind them.
Without any preliminary remaks the man
said: II want some money, and want
you to give it to me- Now you can go
into the vault and give me $4,000. I'll go
with you, and the clerks in the banking
house will think you are showing me the
vaults"
The stranger quickly drew revolver
from his pocket and thrust the muzzle
bgainst Colonel Herrick's head.
"If you don't do that" he continued,
"pll blow you TO -. have a charge of
dynamite and I'll blow us both up"
Colonel Herrick promptly struck the
man in the face and knocked him down.
The robber sprang to his feet, shot at
Colonel Herrick and sprang out of an open
window into the street. The ball passed
through the right side Of Colonel Herrick s
coat. The robber has not been found.

Mechanics and laborers who quit
WORK this season because of reduc-
ton in their wages. are likely to enjoy
a good long rest. The tendency Of
prices IL downward, and ali who wish
work will have to accommodate them
selves to the same. II the Democrats
reduce the tariff, as they threaten to
do, manufacturers Of all kinds will
have to reduce the wages OF their
operatives or go out OF business
There Is no disputing about the mat.
ter. and the sooner the workmer
mako up their minds to accommodate
themselves to the changed conditions
the better 1t will DO for all concerned
II is hard TO submit to a reduction 8
wages, but 1t is better TO do so thai
remain Idle. Us half loaf Is bette
than no bread.
The workmen engaged In the non
protected Industries. carpenters, brick
layers and plasterers, will also snfle
from the depression Of trade, conse
quent upon tariff reduction, and ma,
expect a reduction of wages or e.
without employment. The Every
Evening some time ago argued tha
the wages paid to mechanics were no
dependent in any way upon the pre-
tective system. but If the Democrat
reduce the tariff, as they threaten I
do, 1t will have reason to think dilIsl
emily. Trades Unions and Labor Assc
Citations may resist the reduction for
time. but in the end they vii. have t
submit to the inevitable.
The Democrats insist that the PEG
pie voted for reduction of the tart
last year. and the vote on ruesda
was no evidence Of change of thei
opinions, as that question was not b,
fore them. and could not be influence
by the result. Next year the peop!
will be called upon to elect mem
bers OF Congress, and their votes ma
then be considered as an evidence Q
their feeling in regard to tariff redu,
tion and low prices.

Some perSops cannot understand
that the great mass OF citizens are
benefited by the establishment OF
new Industries In our country. They
hold their pennies so closely to their
eyes that they cannot see the dollars
just beyond. In other words they
have no public spirit, no enterprise,
and would remain in idleness and
starve TO death, rather than contribute
one cent that would add TO the for
tune OF a neiGhbor. They are not
only short.slg GIFTED, but absolutely
mean, and like the servant who OF
being entrusted with the talent By
his master. buried it ia the ground,
instead of Investing II or using it &c
gain another talent.
Such characters are no advantage it
nny community, as they belong to thu
class that are penny wise and pound
foolish. They forget there is tina
(which giveth and yet increaseth, AM
that withholdeth more than is nee

The result OF tho election on Tues
day emphasizes the Importance Of the
OF candidates for ofiioe
whose characters are not besmirched
with dishonest and unscrupulous acts.
The defeat OF Maynard in New York
by over 100. 900. forms such collosal
rebuke that cannot possibly be for
gotten for generation to come. and
will consequently exert very whole
some influence over nominating con-
ventions of every political party. The
same may be said Of Billy Thompson
ard his hackers in New Jersey.
or course the opposition to the tariff
policy Of the Democratic party con
tributed greatly to tho revolution ir
both of these States. but without the
desire of honest mon to bear testimony
against the trickery and debauchery
which has been practlced. the majority
would not have been 80 overwhelming
