Il LOCAL TEN-HOUR BILL.

ANNAPOLIS, Feb. q, 1884
To the MINING JOURNAL.
The appointment of Inspector of
Mines was confirmed to-day without
any opposition whatever.
The bill introduced by Mr.. White
regulating the hours of labor of work
ingmen employed in and about the
mines of Allegany and Garrett
counties, provides that ten hours shall
be days labor, said hours to be COM
puted from the time of beginning said
days labor, provided that the time of
beginning shall be 7 o'clock a. m.
The object of the bill is to place the
employees on an equal footing with
other workingmen in this State, as ten
hours is cons idered days labor in all
sections of the State with the exception
of the mining region, where it seems
the operators have not been humane
enough to recognize the universally
considered limit of hours for workmen.
1t is expected the appointments of
magistrates, registrars and notaries
for Allegany county will be confirmed
this week. UNo.

from $15 to $25 per head. Several
carloads Of fine imported sheep have
been brought to this section lately
from Vermont. They sell for good
prices and are bought up rapidly, as
sheep men are anxious to improve
their stock.
The law-abiding people all along the
border are indignant at the discovery
Of the fact that two governments like
the United States and Mexican should
allow such an imposition to be foisted
on their citizens as the (so-called)
treaty that exists between them. The
recent decision of Secretary Freling-
huysen, published, as it has been, by
great many papers, concerning the
Trimble case, is all the robbers, muir.
derers, outlaws and defaulters wanted.
Noao they can just get over the Rio
Grande and they are free as any Mexi-
can citizen. The whole business is an
outrage and should be adjusted i'm
mediately.
The last JOURNAL informed me Of
the serious illness of Harry II. Robin
son, editor of the Homecoming ReoieV,
and the Queen City Courier, that came
this morning, contained his death
and burial. The fact that an enter
prising, self-made, progressive young
man has been lost by the community
which he served is undoubted. With
those who have already done so l wish
to express to his wife and mother my
sympathy with them and sorrow for
their great loss.
am glad to see that the hewers of
wood and drawers of water of my ma
tive State are coming to the front at
this session of the Legislature. Have
a care, my friends, that you abuse not
the power you are acquiring by acting
unjustly towards those who have kept
you down to hard pan so long, for that
you are getting the dots on them is
sufficient to prove that
Gas round and round we run
Ever the right comes uppermost,
And ever is justice done"
See that you merit justice in your fu-
ture actions. KARs.

The people of Frostburg have noticed
tickets-one in the JOURNAL, and one
published on telegraph-pole-for
Mayor and Councilmen. The names
presented are respectable, and for one
l have no special objection to them.
But before l cast my vote, either at a
primary or general election, | want to
know whether Mr.. Hanson or Mr..
Wittig, and the gentlemen named with
them for Councilmen, will pledge
themselves to provide the town with
protection at night. To goodly
number of taxpayers this is an i'm
portant matter, and we intend at the
proper time to make it one test of fit
ness for the positions to be filed. We
want to find out whether there are any
men in town independent and bold
enough to satisfy the first and greatest
want of property owners.
Let us hear from all the gentlemen
named for corporate positions through
your paper. A TAXPAYER.

able done in this line, and also in the
placing of transient lots; our CORES
pondent mentions the fact of the
placing Of coal to former anthracite
users. Since our last edition there
is the report, apparently well-found-
ed, that the two large carriers of bit
luminous for the seaboard trade have
come to an agreement and that
freights have been settled upon, so
that prices must rule something like
thirty cents per ton over what was
the market rate over January and
February. There will be an anxious
feeling on the part of buyers as to
the future and they will purchase
only for current necessities, unless at
low prices, until the rates are made
for anthracite coal.-Coal Trade
Journal.
A very large business has been done
during the week in bituminous Goals,
and both the Clearfeld and Cumber-
land operators are showing great
activity in canvassing the market.
Extraordinary inducements have
been offered to buyers to close con-
tracts. This condition of affairs does
not seem to have been checked by the
announcement of an agreement reach
ed between the Baltimore & O1io and
the Pennsylvania railroad companies
as to the rates to be charged for
transportation over their respective
roads. In fact, since the announce
ment that this agreement was made,
the activity of the sellers has been
increased rather than checked, and
large lines have been placed at prices
that newly announced tariffs would
not permit to be made. The conclu-
sion is inevitable that the old, old
story is repeating, and that under
cover of the old dodge of contracts
registered prior to the date of the
agreement, new buyers are supplied
at figures not in advance of those
made before this very harmonious
understanding was reached. On the
day that the higher railroad tariffs
were announced to go into effect,
Clearield succeeded in placing 10000
tons with the Pittsburg railroad, fol-
lowed on the succeeding day by sale,
by one of the Cumberland producers,
ola considerable quantity, said to be
10000, to the Boston & Lowell road.
1t would appear that the railroad
companies themselves have no more
respect for their agreements than the
experience of the past few years leads
the public to entertain. Considerable
progress has already been made in
placing bituminous where hitherto
anthracite has been exclusively used,
and the indications are, that the
amount of consumption that will be
transferred from the latter this year
will be very Observation-Disclosures

SOME well-grounded complaint has

SOME well-grounded complaint has
been expressed concerning the ways
of our State Fish G Commissioners. 1t
is reliably stated that the administra-
ton of the trust confded to the COM
mission has favored the eastern por-
ton of the State, while the western
part has been almost wholly neglect
ed. To equalize the distribution of
attentions Gov. Hamilton appointed
Mr.. Gus. Wilhelm Delawder, of Oak
land, to look after affairs up here.
This drew from our piscatorial
sportsmen many expressions of real
delight. But time has passed and
with it accommodating decay Of expec-
tation. Indeed, the hopes that
frightened the dawn Of Mr.. Delawd-
er's advent as fish minister for West
ern Maryland, have paled away into
the dim twilight of disappointment,
and the jewellers upon the banks of
the lovely Cohongoruton are we'll
nigh unhappy. AS an individual the
bass has had to shift for himself. He
has had to climb all the dams with
out assistance, and the few that have
possessed the courage and strength
to do this, lacking the nerve to visit
Cumberland, have gone up Cherry
Run, South Branch, Patterson's
Greek, etc. The bass is an enterpris-
ing, industrious, patient explorer, but
a majority Of his tribe have not the
heft or grit to jump dam which re-
quires running-start mile long.
Hence, when one gets over the Great
Falls he is apt to file right into the
Monocacy or left into the Shenan-
doah, and thus the upper Potomac in
all probability loses valuable settler.
Now, what we want is system
which will encourage populous emf
grafton, for it is the pressure from
behind that the bass wants in order
to push him toward the Star of En-
pire. In this he resembles the rest
less people who have already crowded
the Great West with want of elbow
room. Like them, also, he must have
at least half a chance, and fish-lad-
ders furnish all that he requires in
the way of semi-opportunity to leave
the old pastures in quest of new
grazing ground. Unless, therefore,
he is thus assisted he will never be
crowded up to and past Cumberland
into the rich, virgin fields of ether
east Of the mouth of our own Georges
Greek. 1t is to this point mainly we
desire to lure him. We believe a
careful survey of the Westernport
delta will induce him to come in and
'spossess the land'' until his silver
spirit shall glorify the perennial
fountains of Sand Spring.

IT is worth remarking just now
that no candidate for the Presidency
in this country ever publicly an
nonnces himself as such. When
statesmen are approached on the sub
ject they generally blush and modest
ly deny the imputation, When
written to they always say that they
are not candidates and will not be.
Some of them go so far as to say that
they are out of politics entirely and
attending solely to business. Per-
haps the time will come when can
didates for the Presidency will inclose
Il five-dollar note to the editors of all
the leading newspapers along with a
card saying:
'Please announce me as a candi-
date for the Presidency of the United
States, subject to the decision of the
(insert name Of parity National Con-
vention." If that day ever arrives
there will be money in the newspa-
per business.-New York World.
