A Fairmont man in luck: Some
thing over century ago, Joseph M.
Fleming, of this place, went to Cali
fornia expecting, as many others did
who went there, to make fortune A
few years later he returned to the
home of his childhood, having made
some money, but with the belief that
what he then had was all that he
would ever realize from his venture.
But great was his surprise when a
few days since he received a letter
from his former partner in the gold
diggings, informing him of the fact
that a ''claim" taken by them, and
of which Mr. Fleming had heard
nothing for the last 20 years, had
been recently examined and proved
to be worth millions of dollars. We
understand Mr.. Fleming will go to
the Golden State early in the spring
to look after his interests there, and
will probably take dozen good men
with him to assist in working his
mines.

Another Reply to Mr.. Squier.

Mr.. ED1ToR:-Mr. Squier in his letter
published in your issue Of Sept. 3rd refers
somewhat contemptuously to the w. c. l..
U. as some temperance alliance. The case
which conceive that body has against Mr..
Squier is as follows:
First. He opposed their efforts to OBJ
tain from the Maryland State Teachers
Association, which met at Deer Park, July
1885, an endorsement Of the course they
were then pursuing in their endeavors to
secure Legislative enactment requiring spe-
cial scientific temperance instruction in the
public schools Of the state.
He was thus instrumental in preventing
the aforesaid Association from taking a de-
cided stand in favor of the greatest moral
reform Of the day. 1t is true his action, or
that of the Association had no really re-
tarding effect on the efforts of the w. Z. II.
U. since the law was passed; it amounted
simply to a refusal to put the Association
on record as in favor requiring special tenn
perance instruction by law.
Second. He opposed at Blue Mountain,
at which place the State Teachers Associa-
tion met last July, a resolution introduced
appo 7ing he law just referred to, and re-
questirg that the several county boards be
desired by the Association to carry out the
requirements of that law. The reasons Mr..
ri, f,.
and similar acts are somewha; inconsistent
and dissimilar. He was actuated in the
opposition which he manifested at Deer
Park by the fact that the law already pro-
viGel for the case under consider
alton. 1t is true the law existing at that
time did provide for the teaching of phys.
iology in the upper grades of the State
Schools, but 1t laid no special stress on the
teaching of the effects of alcohol and narcot-
les upon the human system.
The law passed at the last session of the
legislature is certainly better than the one
just spoken of as regards securing an end
which the latter did not specifically contem-
plate, and supplying deficiency which it
con aimed, inasmuch as the general directions
of the latter arc madespecic and particular
in the former. Will Mr.. Squier or any
other prominent public instructor aver that
the object of the law passed at the last ses-
sion Of the legislature, providing for scien-
tific temperance instruction in the State
schools is unworthy the wisdom and digni-
ty of Legislators, or that the law will not
attain this Object if carried out, or that it
will not better attain the object than the
law previously existingp

High License. Our Ticket.

For the MIDLAND JOURNAL.
Let fanatics pirate about their Local Option laws,
And add still more stringent Cider Clause,
With penalty malciously devised and put
At breaking stone, in striped suit, at JEssups CUT
Talk of the vice, crime, poverty and degradation
Whiskey, rum and gin, has caused in the Nation.
To the polls we will go, as al freemen should,
Vote for high license and our neighbors good,
And have it plainly set forth, in the statute,
Licensed whiskey cider, rum and beer, to boot,
Then we'll have grand hotels to ornament our
streets,
Free from old bummers, sots and dead beats.
No jugs and TASKS, filled with the poisonous rot
From out OF a sneaking loaters greasy pockets got
No slums, dens, where sugging rowdies con-
gregate,
To swin the brewers slop, and then retire with
broken pate.
Or saloons, trotted around the town on Wheels
From where our youth into the miry gutter reels
Then our boys will be safe and free from harm,
And things will always work just to charm.
No perjured boy will then, at our courts appear,
TO lie and swear the guilty rascal clear.
Times will be as in the good old days of yore
When the laborer spent less money at the store.
But helped the landlord pay his rent, and dues,
Which go to swell old Uncle SamuePs revenues.
The farmers mind will be once more at ease,
And look with pleasure on his thrifty apple trees
Safe from the fanatics raid and his fierce ire
Who would cut down and cast into the fire.
No hunting up the doctor, they to explain our ills,
And beg an order to him, who sells us pills.
For ourselves, when sick, We can then prescribe
And our Duty's Malt, at any time imbibe.
Walk up to the bar, lay down our silver dimes
And get good licensed ,chiskey every time.
Cider, beer or rum, just as you may choose,
Light your two-for.tive. sit down and read the
news.
SO buckle on your armor, boys. and to the fray,
For our cause is right and we will surely win the
day.
But if we fail, our troubles soon will multiply,
And all fanatics shout CLOVIS that for high
