sure and reliable way 70 sid him
that is. to invite bids, and when they
are obtained, open them all, and
through Ton. Paul, jr., advise Medairy
Of the lowest bid, and thus enable inn

On June 26th Mr.. Medairy wrote
me-"I am waiting for some inionna-
ton. MIR. 7. expected to be i'll Bait

days after this upon seeing T. Paul,

Bond & Co., were presented to the
Board. Upon The Board taking them
up for action, DR.. Getzendanner no
ticed that the bid Of Kelly, Pet & Go.
had been opened. Upon asking Mr..
CocLrane how it happened to be OPEN
ed, he ropGed--"I (Cochrane) had q
right to open it, as it was addressed
to me as Examiner, and I did not
know that it contained bid When
I (Cochrane) saw it was a bid lCocL-
rane) placed it on file" perhaps the
fact Of its having been opened, exam
med and copied by Paul, jr, was what
deferred Mr.. Cochrane from returning
u to X, P q Co., when they aSfe8 for
It's ret,um.) DR.. G. then asked Mr..
Cochrane if anybody had seen 1t, (the
bid Of X, P, q Coz and had made 4
copy of it. He (Cochrane) said yes;
Paul, jr., made copy Of it, but l did
not suppose it was for 4 corrupt pur-
pose" DR.. G. then asked-}id you
not even suspect what he was after?
He (Coohrane) replied-'po.' CHE
reader will remark that on Wednes-
day, August 9TH, when DR.. G. was be-
ing investigated, Mr.. Cochrane, under
oath. stated that II lCochraue) did
not know what Paul, jr, was doing

After DR.. G. had shown to members
Of the Board that Melairy must have

bids, worled so indefinitely, and Mr.
Cochrane having told me that its be-
ing worded indefinitely would make
no difference that the book men be-
ing anxious to have the trouble over
would send their bids on thesame day
of the receipt Of his invitation and
fearing that he (Cochrane) would call
a snap m,eefjnq and that but few bids
might be in his possession, and fearing
that none of them would be lower
than the unofficial bid Of Medairy. and
the necessity might not occur for alter
ing Medairy's unofficial bid, deter
mined, if possible, to have some one
present a bid to Cochrane lower than
the unofficial bid Of Medairv, and then
| would be certain beyond the posi-
biIity OF failure of detecting whether
the bids had been opened, and Medairy
had altered his on account Of intor-
nation furnished him by said opening

haven't heard of it.
Above and beyond all this, the peo-
pie of Frostburg have got to do some
thing to maintain the prestige Of the
town and preserve the value of the
great OUTLAWS they have already made.
They have sown heavily, and the
harvest will be wholly lost unless they
prepare to reap. There is no use
mincing words about it. Our real
estate is fearfully depressed in value
Our prospects for work ale not en-
couraging, and rich people and poor
people are going down the hill to-
gether. New competing regions are
opening up every year, and notwlth-
standing the vaunted superiority Of
our coal we are losing trade. A te"
years ago the Cleardeld product was
a bug-a-boo which excited our de-
vision. 1t turned out reality which
distanced US last year, and will be
close upon our heels this year. The
losses of wages to miners is loss tt
us-all, all tending to diminish oul
resources for business.
These should be compensated for II
every available way-to retrieve a;
much as we can of the past and pre-
pare for the future. The way to dc
