sufficient snap and energy to accom-

uiated us on our journey. (Allow me
here to return our most sincere thanks
10 her for the handsome gift SHE pre-
sented each of US at that time.) We

WHILE in Oakland this week

WHILE in Oakland this week we
learned that the season just expiring
Was the most prosperous the town has
ever had. Hundreds of guests have
spent the entire summer there, and
as many as five hundred were present
at one time. The hotel and private
houses have been crowded to their ut
most capacity, and in many cases
neighbors have accommodated each
other by the loan of beds, etc, in Or
der to prevent any visitor going away
and taking his change elsewhere.
Naturally enough, this influx of for
eign patronage has been so very prof
liable that several new enterprises
have been projected in order to meet
the greater demands expected the
next and succeeding years.
The Baltimore and Ohio railroad
company will build during the fall and
winter an additional wing to its al
ready spacious hotel, thereby afford
ing nearly double its existing accom-
modations. 1t cleared $4,000 last
season, probably $4,000 this year, and
will do still better next.
John Daily, Esq, popular land
lord, has also let contracts for the cree
ton in time for next summer of COM
mc3io@s hotel on one of the the most
conyeIlent sites in town His extend
ed acquaintance, influence, and GEM
al manners, will attract a large attend
anco. Between these two enterprises
it is more than likely that Oakland
Will draw next yeal an average of one
thousand visitors, or a weekly income
OF from $4,000 to $4,000, or for
the season certainly not less than
$4,000.
In conversation with one of the cit
liens friendly to Frostburg, he sug-
gested that We might be getting a
large portion Of this identical patron
age we're it not for your (our) "cussed"
wa. of enterprise" He hit the nail
OF! the head exactly. While a neigh
boring town, with advantages in no.
wise superior, is realising golden ben
ehts therefrom, we are permitting ours
to run to utter waste and uselessness
and while our property has declined
to an extent that it hardly has cas!.
value anymore, Oakland is keeping
lers u by making use of exactly til,
very Clements which we practically
esteem worthless.
No doubt we will wake I'D to the
Importance of this matter at syme fu-
tule time, but it would be far bette.
to take that time by tie forelcck and
arouse to our duty now.
