Frostburg mining journal. [volume] (Frostburg, Md.) 1871-1913, 1875-10-09

TIE moral sense Of at least few of The
readers Of the Georges Creek Press must I've
blunt if they find entertainment in the vic.
ious treatment it bcstows upon us, That
this il done without cause a word of eXpla-
nation will show:
Two weeks ago we referred to the Agri-
cultural Socic,ys advertising offer to coun-
try papers, characterizing as best we could
the lttlcncss of the estimate placed on our
value as compared with prices paid in Cum
berland. Without referring to anybody
specially, we suggested that the Society put
those publishers on exhibition who accepted
such prices TO this the Press, with It's in
trinity of twisting the many things it docs
not anG cannot understand to reflections up
onitsclf, rcjoined with a statement which was
very satisfactory as explaining its contract
with the Society. Had it stopped with this
it would have done the graceful thing. On
the contrary, it permitted our remarks to
play the emctc on its gastlon0mics, and mp
came the vile juices and gals until the
"splater of the Sums nearly qucnchcd tn"
balcful lustre of its infamous photographed
gymnastics. That its pukc is not compile
ted may be observed in Thursdays issue,
wherein ii still shows how large tie capac-
ily of little souls Tor filth.
The Press is winning fame Hopeless
ignorance of prophecies as well as of other
adiuncs to reputable journalism is doing
the work. 1t has already reached very far
down toward a point where damnation is
the just desert. Among trash papers "it is
the lcper of all the reptiles
NEXT week our subscription bills will
again go out to those in arrears. To few
they have often gone before. The follow
ing week will afford an excellent opportun-
ity for such dclinquents to square up. IT,
however, they persist in not paying us UNI
til the 23d inst, on that day we will take
their names from our list. If we were able
to Sire them the paper longer it would not
be Just to do so Besides, we want to get
through the winter rid Of all unnecessary
weights. We hope, however, our dclin
quent friends VIII SO far appreciate the
situation as to pay up their dues We
need the money to buy paper, pay wages
and TO live.
| NED" lays it on that infamous scapegoat
the careless compositor." He's the sum
Of all iniquitics, is that same compositor.
| His sins lie mountain heavy on his eXccra-
ted race, but think, Ned how often he's
been hung shot and quartcrcd. The Cum
berland Times alone has massacrcd him in
numcrably. He ought not to be killed any
more He should be dischargcd--that is,
turned out to grass, and regularly rubbed
upwards with bar of Hills stationery,
coupled with copious treats every weekday
of those Sabbath breaking smokers. Then
hire him over again
WE dotf our best SLOUGH to tho Meyers
dale Independent. Whether speaking of our
paper or town it is equally fclicitous:
The FRosTBUEG MINING JOURNAL has
entcred,upon its tifr h year it has become one
of the established institutions of the pleas
ant little city whose interests il so ably rep
rescnts. May it always flourish.
Likewise we appreciate the CtrtlMn'sncat
compliment:
The Frostburg Journal has entered on
another year with the brightest prospects,
1t is a well conducted, spriyhtly paper, and
we wish the Mcssrs Oder continued success
AMONG our industrial institutions none
are more though of the value of employ
mcnt to the working community in hard
times as the public spirited proprietor OF tn"
Savage Mountain Fire Brick Works of this
place Without many or large orders, he
vet keeps the works going on building
brick. These he is storing for the instant
filing of future orders however large. \
hnlf million may now be supplied on two
weeks notice.
THE Press "correcton" will do to palm
off np some people, but the revise won't
pass current in printing offices generally,
Besides there is a correction in order for
next week, this time in the large type.
How about that The "rcvise" get oil, be-
sides being deficient in thickness, will be
worn out The candid way is to tell the
public vou don't know when IAN error is
incorrect"
DELAY.-Thc JOURNAL is a day behind.
BOYS went othc Fair; Press exhibition too
much for them. One came home sick the
other forgot he has a home Came to think
of it, the train was gone, That's the worst
way the Press has went for us" yet.
