SLIGHTLY SUGGEsTIvE.-Thc following
paragraphs from Wednesdays AHeganian
and Ns.es, respectively:
We are authorized by AIr. Mcmahon to
state that the part he took in the Frostburg
meeting on. Saturday night was only
in the interest of the ventilation bill.
He is opposed to lacking the miners bill
on to any other now before the House. He
wants tie ventilation bill to stand or fail
on its own merits and so do the miners all.
In the Senate on Monday the bill regu-
lating the working ana ventihting of coal
mines in Allegany and Garrett counties, on
motion of Mr. Lee was recommitted' to the
committee on finance.

the State Senate series Of resolu-
tons calling upon the Maryland rep,
resentatives in Congress to impress
upon the United Staes government

ton to asaist the canal company in
extending the canal to the mouth Of

= A lady correspondent writes to
know what nation furnishes the best

that although we are not very we'll

There is some probability that in a
short time the fractional currency of
the country will be displaced by sill.
yer coin. The rather singular fact
that paper money is worth more than
silver Seems to make it undesirable to
keep the metal in the vaults, and we
hope soon to hear the jingle of the
old time coin, and to miss the filthy pa

A movement is on foot in Philadel-
phia to have the bond required by the
government from the centennial COM
mission in lien of the million and a
half appropriation signed by one hum

about sixty signatures had been Sc

1t is understood that the Canadian
government will modify its fiscal pol
icy so far as to encourage sugar REIN
ing and protect that business from
American competition. 1t is asserted
that the drawback allowed on the ex-
port of refined sugar from this country
is excessive, and places the Canadian
refners at a great disadvantage.
A company of New York gentlemen
have leased large lot adjoining the
grounds of the centennial exhibition

dation Of societies and military and
other organizations.

be unveiled in Philadelphia on the

THERE is a problem in the new county
business which we should like to have solv-
ed. To succeed there must he to each
county 400 square miles Of territory and
10000 population. Garrett had to take in
673 square miles in order to get 10,SG0 in
habitants. Now if the new county takes
'273 square miles from Garrett, as it must
do TO have any show of success, what be-
comes of CARROTS population? The diff
Guilty might be obviated by picking out the
unnhabited spots throughout the county,
and labelling them New County. -Cicilian.
And when there is bill before the Leg
islature authorizing plan which ariH
"solve the problem" the Ciuilian is one of
those who don't "likc" to have it "solved"
Just two or three weeks ago it didn't want
the bill providing for the solution to pass
because it was mot necessary !" now it
wants to know how we are going to ar
range the territory and population of Gar

ments, The truth is, the opponents of new
county are afraid of the proposed survey
they want to consider the existing record
as correct and hypothecate their problems"
from this basis. Quite, but not too smart.

THE need Of hotel was ncve more fore
IDLY illustrated than on Monday night in
the enforced return of Mr.. Fords company
to Cumberland for lodging accommoda-
tons. We have not time to speak of this
subject at further length than to suggest
that now we have Hall worthy of any
Company's use, can we not also project
and build hotel capable of accommodate
ing them?
We submit this to the serious attention
of our business men and capital ;sts-men
who are deeply interested in the growth
and development of our town interests. Is
it not worth while to supplement the adj
vantagcs and value of the Hall by provis-
ion which will certainly make both useful
and profitable? To leave the existing de-
fciency of hotel accommodations stand, is
to thlow away all the benefits the Hall has
conferred. Gentlemen, get together; talk
over this matter and devise a plan. The
subject is worthy OF ore.

THE new county bill is not really dead :;
it sleeps in the committee on finance.
Now it seems to us as entirely in order that
it be walked up. We want to hear the re-
port of that sapient ommittee-favorable

1t done decently; We want to see who does it
IN why. These are bold challenges to the
''scrraats" Of the people, but we risk them

visible hand is holding the screw on this
measure for some purpose, wise or otherwise,
We want to see the men who turn Just as the
screw turns. We want this measure met

within Mr.. McCullohs power to demand
and obtain report frem the committee on
finance. If the worst comes to the worst,
let it come nobody will be disappointed.

NEW NOUNTS-NEW MEN AND NEW
THINGS IN GENERAL."-A correspondent
writes u.s.
Il see you are accused of espousing and
applauding new things generally. With
regard to the new county, never give it up :;
and with regard to other new things, be
sure to see they are good Go on what
our country needs is new men, new meas
ures and new qualities, honesty included :;
nothing more nor less will bring new era
Go on; blessed are the pioneers who clear
away the dead rubbish, who open up the
way for new departures from the beaten
track of political trickery and corruption;
who assist in educating the people up to an
enlightened comprehension and treatment

higher manifestation o. the spirit which
pulls down your rotten tenementS and re-
places them with solid buildings; which
paves your streets and builds your Centen-
