To the MINING JOURNAL:
/ notice in your issue of the 9th
inst, communication from your
Cumberland correspondent signed "a
Democrat" in which he makes a COM
parison between the ability and capac-
ity Of Mr.. DeVecmon and Mr.. Rich

circumstances, very unkind, descend
ing as it does to needless contrasts. If
the writer was sincere, why not carry
the comparison to the Bench, much
more important field than States At

legal practice or experience when he
was elected to that Office or was he
older or indeed as old as Mr.. DeVec-
mon9 | think not, and yet Mr.. Sloan
has made very acceptable prosecut-
ing attorney. Can it be possible that
Mr.. DeVecmon has lived in this county
for thirty years, with relatives in al
most every quarter of it, and be a
stranger to the people9 One, too,
whose father, from his extensive legal
practice, personal magnetism and
great political influence, made his fame
household word in almost every
hamlet in the county, and whose name
is still fresh and green in the memory
of all who was personally acquainted
with him =? Many of these will feel
proud of the opportunity to cast a vote
for his eldest son, regardless of party.
| will digress here moment to say
that learn from "a Democrat for
the first time that the States Attorney
has any hand or influence in the selec-
ton of juries. This is duty of the
Bench, which is supposed to be as well
acquainted with the people as the
prosecuting attorney. If l am right
it can make no difference to elect Mr..

means also large and lucrative prac-
tice. When did lawyer in the enjoy
ment of great patronage ever make an
effort to abandon it for the Office of
States Attorneyq Some men at the
Cumberland bar would not give it up
for the Judgeship.

Eastern Tiems OftRe Coal Trade.

New YoRK.-Bituminous coal
trade continues remarkably quiet
and there are no new features worthy
of note; the points which have been
made in certain railway suit have
some interest to the trade along the
seaboard and if there were anything
definite proven it might be of service
as it is there is nothing more in these
charges than what has been current
gossip for several years. Prices of
coal are low and to help out the rates
that are received, we begin to hear of
what the coal is costing the producer;
of course the figures is below that of
other years, but too often it is at the
expense of keeping the mine in prop
er shape for its future output. The
tonnage continues large, and the dis
tricts competing for the seaboard
trade are particularly active in this
egard.-Coal Trade Journal.
The only item of interest is the
statement made by responsible par
ties that one of the largest of the Cum
berland companies has contracted for
the building at Roach's ship-yard,
of three colliers. The experience of
the Reading company has been so
favorable to such undertakings that
it is probable that important advan-
tages will accrue to the bituminous
company referred to.
PHILADELPHIA.-Active efforts
are making to extend the bituminous
coal trade in New England and with
many promises of success. Several
large contracts are now under nego-
tiation, and the only thing standing
in the way is the fact that freights
are too high.
Some sharp fighting has been done
recently between the Cumberlan d
and Clearfeld regions, and both are
held in check by freight rates.
BosToN.-Bituminous coal is as
dull as at our last report, with no new
contracts reported. We quote btu
minous at $2.S5 f. o. b. at Baltimore,
and will not say close buyer might
not do better.-New York Coal

George NJ. Perdew is a gentleman
whose attainments need no mention at
my hands; his ability is an acknowl-
edged fact, and his fitness for any po-
sition where scholarship and broad and
liberal culture are requisites, is un-
questionable. Because Cumberland
gets one-third of all the school funds
expended, it does not follow that she
must capture the examinership too.
Frostburg should have a chance to

PERHAPS MIR. RICHMOND
Does not Measure Up to the Highest
Standard.

FRosrBuRG, Oct. 81, 1888.
To the MINING JOURNAL.
There appeared in the last number
of your paper an article which must
not be allowed to go unnoticed. refer
to that one signed ga Democrat"
Itwas no doubt this gentleman's duty
to make the case for his friend as
strong as he possibly could, but in do
ing this it is to be regretted he found it
necessary to write ungenerously and
unjustly of his friends rival. He has
inflicted his injuries obliquely, prefer
ring to suggest by innuendo what, re-
duced to distinct charges, he would
have declined to publish.
Is it true that Mr.. DeVecmon has
only his youth to recommend him ;
Let us see. A glimpse at the facts in
the case will show beyond cavil that
Mr.. DeVecmon's merits are equal if
not superior to any and all that can be
justly imputed to Mr.. Richmond.
If we followed the English rule and
admitted no one to the study of the law
without submitting him to searching
preliminary examination in the Eng
ish language, the Latin language and
English history, / seriously doubt
whether to-day Mr.. Richmond would
be able even to begin his legal studies.
Must the same be said of Mr.. DeVec-
mon-him whose only recommendation
is his youth9 This young man was
graduated about two years ago at the
Maryland University, where he had
received the instructions of men emf
nent for their knowledge of the law.
Previously he had been literally edu-
Gated at one of the oldest colleges in
the United States, and had supplement
ed the work of his classical teachers
by travels in foreign lands.
This briefly but unanswerably dis
poses of Mr.. Richmond's alleged great
er fitness to fill the office for which he
has been named.
But the acquisitions of years of pa
tient and severe study in both ancient
and modern learning thorough disci-
pline in the humanities and sciences
taught in our colleges; most careful
education in the law under the very
best tutors-all these, in the opinion of
Mr.. Richmond's friend, are equivalent
to simply nothing. No recommends
ton there still his only title to consid-
GRAFTON is his youth. This may be that
gentleman's conviction, but people
generally are of quite different mind.
Another claim made for Mr.. Rich
mond, viz: That he is more widely
known than Mr.. DeVecmon-will serve
only to excite smile in those who read
it. 1t is pretence that needs not to
be refuted. 1t carries its own refuta-
ton to every reader of the JOURNAL.
| have learned within the last day or
two that these friends of Mr.. Richmond
are using other means to hinder if pos
sible the election of Mr.. DeVecmon-
means which no one with honorable
principles in his breast could adopt for
a moment. But let them assure them
selves of one thing, viz: All their in
dustry in that species of warfare will
operate only to the damage of the man
they seek to serve.

THE EXAMINERSHIP
A Frostburg Name Presented.

The question that at present inter.
ests the friends of our public schools is
as to Mr.. Cochrane's successor as ex-
aminer, and some of the papers and
mos. of the people seem to have i'm
bibed the mistaken idea that the exam
iner must necessarily be a Cumberland
man. Now, with all due Difference to
the erudition and scholarship of the
average Cumberlander, | would sug-
gest that Frostburg has as suitable
material from which to select as can be
found in the "Queen City" itself. Mr..

FRosTBURG, Oct. 81, 1888
ToDhe MINING JOURNAL.
Yesterdays Cumberland Times in
forms the public that in case Mr.. De-
Vecmon be elected States Attorney
"the friends of the father would see
that the name sufferno disparagement
from the acts of the son."
We would like to know now if Mr..
Richmond has any such guardians or
sponsors, or whether he thinks he has
manhood enough to stand on his own
foundation. From the past record of
Mr.. R. we think he prefers the latter,
and doubtless the election will show
that the public like that sort of man
too. No. II.

A LAST WORD,
Interlined by Several Interrogatories'

FRosTBuRG, Oct. 81, 1883,
To the MINING JOURNAL.
The comparison" set up in your
columns last week between Messrs.
Richmond and DeVecmon was unfair,
to say the least of it, and was therefore
a wretched campaign dodge. But if
"a Democrat" is democrat, what was
his course four years agoP Did his af-
lection for the taxpayers seduce him
into the support of Sloan over Gonder,
and were the legal requirements of
either greater then than DeVecmon's
nOwg
My opinion is-begging your pardon,
Mr.. Editor-that "a Democrat" is a
republican in disguise. He doubtless
voted for Sloan, if he had a vote,-and
had he more experience than Gonder ?
If he is a taxpayer, which l doubt, he
must know that an incompetent Court
is much worse for him than an mex
perienced prosecutor, yet this man,
this kind of democrat, probably vo-
ted for w. j. Read against r. H. Alvey,
for Edward Stake against A. X. Syes-
ter, and will vote no doubt for H. w.
Hoffman against J. H. Gordon If he
is a native democrat, which | also
doubt, he will swallow Hoffman's
Greeley record without gagging, and
if he is foreigner he will try to forget
that mot drop of blood" such as his
"fows in" Hoffman's "veins !"
Another question comes up. 1t can
not be denied that Mr.. Sloan, when
nominated, had the same load to carry
that Mr.. DeVecmon has now. He was
younger lawyer than Mr.. Gonder.
But with all his want of experience he
won, and has made fair record of
duty done. No complaints have been
urged against him that | ever heard,
and he gained what "A Democrat"
processes to value so highly-experi-
ence. But what did it profit him : A
ring of such men as "a Democrat"
turned down the man with real exper-
ience to put in one without it.
Now, these unblushing fellows, want
to talk about DeVecmon's inexperi-
ence!
want to say word to taxpayers.
Do you believe Richmond was nomi-
mated to please you9 Do ysu believe
Richmond was nominated to save to
you your money! Not a bit of it.
Sloan is just as able to take care of
you as Richmond Sloan was entitled
to endorsement by denomination.
But Sloan had to go. Why? Because
he was beaten by superior political
strategy. No appeal to taxpayers
would answer then. The taxpayers
were not thought of, nor cared about,
and the men who make this appeal to
you now against young DeVecmon do
not consider your interests worth as
much as a penny above the most num-
Der of cases they can mako and the
corresponding fees to be drawn from
your pockets. They have no more in
terest otherwise in convicting crimi-
mails than you have.
Let me fix the inconsistency OF such
people as "a Democrat" in your minds.
Remember that Sloan, an experienced
States Attorney, was turned down to
put in Richmond, a new man; that
this was done for Richmond, not for
you. Remember that the appeal to
you now in Richmond's behalf, as
then, is for Richmond and for nobody
else. This is the bottom rock OF his
campaign from beginning to end.
If Semmes DeVecmon is elected he
will save more money to the taxpayers
