The Ventilation Act.
FRosTBURG, MAY 5, 1876.

FRosTBURG, MAY 5, 1876.
Mr.. Editor Il can see no sense in
several sections of the Ventilation Act
published in your paper last week l
would be glad to have somebody ex-
plain them.
Section seventh provides that the
owner of every mine shall provide and
establish within six months from the
passage of the Act for every such mine
a proper system of pure air ventilation,
to be we'll circulated through every
working excavation throughout the en-
tire mine
Section tenth, that whenever any
gases or impure air exists, and the
Mine Inspector comes to know of it,
he shall Immediately notify the own
er or agent of the mine to expel
from the mine all noxious gases Grim
pure air existing therein, and to prop
erly ventilate the same
And section twelfth enacts that the
mode of ventilation shall be the same
as now in use in the coal mines.
The question is, being there is plenty
Of impure air now, how are they going
to get it out if they must follow section
twelfth? The fact is, with this section
in it, the act amounts to nothing at
al. It provides for ventilation and
then it don't provide for ventilation
The Inspector has no power whatever;
he can inform the proper authorities
of the necessity for ventilation and or
der its provision, but they can show
him section twelfth; then what can the
Inspector say, and what can he do ? 1t
is true, there is power in the Act to
punish for Noncompliance with its pro-
vision, but the power which forbids
punishment seems to be stronger. The
truth is the thing is worse than if we
had no law at all.
| hope the Legislature at its next
session Will SO amend the Act that it
may be effective. MINER.

The outside proof seeming sufficient,
the Press comes down to the conclu-
sion that if we will make an affidavit
to the effect that the power press was
purchased before it (the Press first
credited it to Mr.. Ruhl, that we will
triumph and the Press will tender an
apology" 1t goes further, however
and challenges us to produce the aft
davit'' under pain of having the pub
lie believe we have lied and falsifed
our neighbors for selfish purposes
We said it was our machine before
it was placed in this Office, and forth
fed the statement by certificate from
Mr.. Ruhl that it was true. With ever
so much willingness, then, to comply
with the Press sharp" demand for
our affidavit, we cannot see how it
would strengthen our case. If 'the
public" will not believe Mr.. Ruhl and
ourself jointly it will not believe us
separately. Therefore, as the matter
stands, we decline to indulge the Press
mystical body, called "the public"
with the luxury of an affidavit The
challenge is, moreover, naught but a
nice little evasion of the issue and an
inversion of our relative positions in
the dispute.
However, we will let up little on
this. If the Press will straighten up
that little discrepancy between itself
and Harry Robinson, about which we
inquired last week, we will bring our
affidavit promptly and Mr.. Ruhls, too.
