To the MINING JOURNAL:
After locking over this city and sea-
ing what has been done since | was
here eleven years ago. I can truly say
its growth has been wonderful. 1t
has bounded into the foremost rank Of
business centres; everything is alive
and competition strong in all branch
es. l can note no diff renee between
this city and Frostburg in prices Of
merchandise; Baltimore canned tcoas,
for instance, sell at the same rates as
at the palace Grocery."
I have been on TIE road one we k
and find the country in a flourishlnq
condition. Wheat prospects were
never more encouraging ard the far
mers are jubilant. Missouri enjoys
about as fine promises for great fu-
ture as any western State. En'erprls-
ing people have come in here and
routed the "mossbsclzs," as they are
styled, and progression is he order Of
the day. The term, moss back" is
applied to the old Tiers who owned
the land and lived without work.
To furnish you an instance OF the
enterprise of western towns, three co y
boys were brought in the other day
en- route to the penitentiary a lady
reporter interviewed the officers in
charge, and an hour later iull ac-
count of the bloody deeds committed
by the convicts appeared, pretaoed ~
