Il Frostburg an Incorporated TOWN.
II 80, Does 1t Afford Protection to its
Citizens
These inquiries are prompted by an
occurrence few days since in which
a citizen came near being seriously
hurt, if not losing his life. Standing
on one Of our corners, team came
around from the opposite direction,
which owing to the din in the imme
diate neighborhood, he did not hear.
He was standing in full view of the
driver, though the latter gave him no
warning. When almost under the
horses feet he discovered his perilous
situation, from which he escaped al
most by a miracle. Appealed to for
explanation, the driver threatened to
drive over any man who would not
get out Of his way"
The Bailiff was referred to, but he
knew Of mo corporate statute touch
ing the case" A prominent Squire
was next sought, but he was "cogni-
zant Of no measure Of redress Our
patriotic and smiling Mayor was next
approached, but he suayely advised
that "inasmuch as nothing serious had
resulted, let the matter drop-that the
streets OF Frostburg are not the prop,
er places for the transaction Of bust
ness, etc.
Now, all l have to say on these
points. is, if citizen of Frostburg has
no rights which rutiianly driver is
bound to respect, let us hand the Cor
poration over TO the drivers. If we
have. let US know them and the means
and measure Of redress and if the
town officials don't know what these
rights are, let them find out, or resign.
Why, Mr.. Editor, it is preposterous
to suppose that this drivers conduct
can be thus virtually accorded as not
violation Of law and public security.
If he can do this his lmpunity may as
easily reach the ladies and children
who daily throng our streets, endan-
gerins life and limb. The poor rogue
who steals a pair of pants is remorse-
lessly gobbled and meets condemnato-
ry statutes all the way from the mag
lstrate's office to the penitentiary, yet
the inhuman teamster who threatens
to drive his horses and wagon over a
citizen-no law for him ? | tell YOU,
sir, if there is not, there is another
volume to DO added to Euclid's lost
catalogue.
And then, as to the proper places
to transact business what are streets
for but for lawful interchange no mat
ter of what Is it wholly for the ex-
ercise of the drivers whose cruel ca
price may dictate trial of engineer
Ing his team over your body? Per
haps they are for the pleasure OF the
loaters, whom, however, the town con-
dennis in huge ordinance, yet moth
ing, confessedly, for the lordly driver.
AT any rate, the whole transaction
ID practically narrowed to this: the
unoffending citizen is condcmncd-the
offending driver is exculpated--a sys-
tenn which, If we'll countenauced, will
soon make a Juggernaut of every
wagon in Frostburg. TIN.

Prof. FOwlcr's Greatest Work.

The National Publishing Company,
Of Philadelphia, has just issued a very
important and valuable work, by Prof
o. S. Fowler, on Manhood, Woman
hood, and their Mutual Interrelations
Love, Its Laws, Power, etc. 1t is a
mastery exposition Of the Laws which
control the relations Of the sexes, and
their duties towards each other, and
it is not asserting too much TO pro
nounce it one of the most valuable and
timely publications of the age.
know thyselfl" was the profound
injunction Of the ancient sage, and it
is the neglect to comply with this pre-
cept which causes nearly all the mis-
cry and sickness of the world.
1t is for the purpose of difusing
this knowledge that Professor Fowler
has given to the world this work which
is simply an explanation of the laws
which govern the sexes in their rela-
tons to each other. He points out
the duties Of husbands and wives and
discloses facts of which no true man
or woman ought to be ignorant.
His book is pure and elevated in
it's style and IDEAS and furnishes a
practical solution Of many of the most
perplexing questions Ct life. 1t should
be read by the young and old, by the
married and single. 1t touches upon
questions and discusses them thorough
iy, in which every married person is
interested.
Young men who value their domeat-
ic happiness, should not fail to read
his remarks on the subject Of select
ing a wife, as the information it con-
talns is beyond value.
1t is sold by subscription only, and
agents are wanted in every county.

TEE GRANDEST DISCOVERY OF

This is truly an age of progress. Dis

world of science. art, matter. etc, hut
philosophic minds. by deep study, thought
and reflection. sometimes eliminate wonder
full principles and truths that, at first,
startle the world by their hrlliancy and
Importance, and then excite a feeling of
surprise that truths. so vital to the exist
cnce of free people, and principles so
wide spread and all dfiusng in their pos
sible results, should have been so long
overlooked. With pardonablc pride that
the discovery, and the announcement
thereof, should have been made in Rut-

ing Jealousy that our contemporary got
the start of us. we propose TO lo our

is no necessity for it, because notwithstand-
ing the attempt made in some quarters to

name of the people Of his native state, in

SUPEIsCEDE HIM.

Thank God, the President pro tempOTe
of the United States Senate is only, as
its name indicates, for the time being
Statute law does not fix the term during
which President pro tempOre of the Sen
ate shall serve. 1t is matter regulated
entirely by custom and usage. All the
law there is upon the subject, if it can be
such an officer is recognized, in the consti-
tuition and one or two statutes. If we are
not greatly mistaken, the standing rules of
the Senate do not make any provision even
for the election of such an officer. Gus
tom and usage, however, as we have said,
govern the matter, and the Senate has the
right and power to elect different tempo
rary presiding officer daily, if they should
see proper so to do. The constitution gives
the power, and custom or necessity-or
both-regulate its use. The constitution
says that "the Senate shall choose
a President pro tempore in the absence of
the Vice President Well considered
parliamentary authority declares that ''his
Office is understood to he determined
that is the Office of any temporary presd-
ing oflicer-upon the appearance of the
regular officer, ''or at the meeting of the
Senate after the first recess" So that
either in accordance with custom and usage
or by parliamentary law, it will he the
duty of the United States Senate, in the
absence of Vice President Wilson, imme-
dately after their assembling to elect a
President pro tempOTe. We thank God,
reverently, for this custom and usage, and
for this construction of the duty of the
Senate in the premises. Devoutly we pray
that God, in His infinite mercy and COM
passion, may spare the life of Henry Will
son.
We never expected to live to see the day
when we should feel called upon to regard
the possible elevation of a son of Vermont,
as humiliation to Vermont and dis
grace to the nation. When Solomon Foot
was President pro tempOre of the Senate
and only one life was between him and the
presidency of the United States, we ali felt
safe because the honor and integrity of the
nation would have been safe in his hands,
if that one life had been removed Solo
mon Foot would have honored the nation,
and Vermont would have partook of the
honor, and have proudly pointed to her
noble son. With sadness and a feeling OF
deep humiliation, we recognize the fact
that a son of Vermont has been selected to
fill the place so long and so honorably
filled by our late Senator, tOwnsman and
friend, With Shame and disgrace we re-
call the fact that a son of Vermont, Sen.
ator from a distant state, is President PR
