THE New York SIM, speaking of the
democratic exchange of German for
Harris as head of the caucus, STYLES
the one 'protcctionist," the other ii
'frcc trader" To this the Cumbcr-
land Times demurS aS follows:
Things have indeed changed and one OF
the most conspicuous changes is the rccog-
milton of senator GOrman's good sense upon
the tariff question. lie, however, is not a
'protcctionist,' as the term is taken by the
rule, but a tariff for revenue democrat of the
same order we are and he who runs may
read the political opinions of this paper ON
that question.
Mr.. German has been charged with
a great many political crimes and at
the bar of final Judgment will plead
guilty to several of them.
At the same supreme moment, if
it comes up against him, he will
draw the line at the Times allcga-
ton that he is i'll political opinion and
practice an annex of that paper.

FROSTBURG, MD, SATURDAY, MARCH 49, 1889.

"MINEE." writing to the jackson
Industrial II'~j|. says among other
things about Ohio mining and mining
laws:
In no case Is a boss responsible for accidents
in rooms where timbcr~ are furnished for
ample support of the roof. Miners having
rooms il charge are supposed To keep them
securely proppcd without the interference OF
the boss.
The fifteen foot law is Il dead letter and
has caused several dead men. There are
mines that require propping within three to
five feet of the working face of rooms to in
sure perfect satcty-uOw comes the dead let
ter law. The mine boss having no luriSCliC
ton within fifteen feet of the working face of
rooms, some of the lazy, careless and cnrj"'w
miners take advantage of tins and set no
more props than the boss and the law com.
pei them to- and there soon comes a draw or
Swag in the roof of this fifteen foot space. 4
heavy shot or "bunkcr' is fired, which
springs the more solid part of the roof but
nothing is thought of that. We have fifteen
feet to go ON the law gives us that. Ifa fall
does occur, as it generally does the boss
must pay for cleaning It up. So we com
mcnCc to load the coal into wagons when Il
large lump from the shovel strikes the roof
near the swag, which cracks or knocks out
the keystone, rs it were, and down comes a
mas, of Slate and dirt completely covering
us, either killing or manning Us for life We
dwell too much ON those humbug laws the
principal cause of all the accidents. The
best law in vogue for the safety of the miner
i'll rooms is a fair knowledge of the tensile
strength of the roof and willingness to set
his props near the working face rs the boss
and his own experience may dictate.
Vet it has occurred that the Ohio
mining law has been drawn upon to
furnish regulations for the conduct of
our mineS-a law which. in one res
pect at least is confcsscdly the cause
of fatality.
Moreover, we have in the above Il
sample of the general abSurlity of lc-
gal regulations to compel operators to
do many things which the miners own
interest not only teach him but com
pei him to do.
The County Commissioners have appoint
ed committees from the various towns and
districts in the county, and we presume have
named a committee from their own honor
able body to meet with the Editorial
Association.

Booth and Forrest Off Their Dignity

From the st. Louis Republic.
"Who would think, says Stuart Robson,
that Edwin Booth was good banjo player
and that he fingered the strings when O
young man for his father and Edwin For
rest to dance. He told me the story him
self, and it runs in this way: He used to
travel with his father, play small parts and
look after the great actors wardrobe.
Edwin was very fond of picking the banjo
and his father was very fond of listening to
it. One night he was sitting in his room
stunning away while his father sat
listening. The elder Booth was always q
little shy of Edwin Forrest, and would not
for the world have had the great tragedian
see him in anything bit dignified mood.
But he was nicely caught on one occasion.
Edwin was playing tie banjo and his
father was enjoying it, when a knock came
to the door.
"'Come in said the elder Booth, rather
grufly, when the door opened and in STROBE
Edwin Forrest.
"'How are you, Junius, said he to the
father. How are you, Ed. said he TO the
SOD.
1.-THE father arose, shook hands with Mr..
Forrest and at the same time motioned Ed
win with his hand to put the banjo away.
"'No, no. said Mr.. Forrest, no, mol
like to hear it.
''Both resumed their seats.
"'Can you play Old Zip Coon, said he to
Edwin.
1.-THE young Booth began playing the
tune. When it was finished Forrest asked
for half a dozen familiar plantation melo-
dies. and Edwin played them. Finally he
struck the air of a. old Virginia hoe-dowp.
The elder Booth began keeping time with
his foot and so did Forrest. Very soon the
feet of both the great tragedians began to
move in a halfway shuttle, and finally, as
the full spirit of the music caught them,
both began to dance the familiar steps
which tho music provoked.
''The harder Edwin played the mere
vigorous the steps of the two tragedians,
and the frolic continued until all were
firad -

STOVES.
zDEAL BROTLING.

Broiling can be done in the oven of the
Charter Oak Range or Stove with the Wire
Gauze Oven Door, more perfectly than over
the live Goals.
Lay the steak, chops, ham or fish on a
wire broier or meat rack, placing it in an
ordinary bake pan TO catch the clippings.
Allow it to remain in the oven with the
door closed Is or 20 minutes. No turning
is required. At the end of this time it will
be found nicely cooked ready TO serve.
THIS Is THE IDEAL WAY TO BRoIL MEATS.
There is no faint of cOal-gas or smoke,
and the meats are more tender and better in
favor than those broiled over the Goals.
The convenience or broiling in the oven
will be appreciated by every house-keeper,
and adds another to the many reasons why
the Charter Oak Range or Stove with the
Wire Gauze Oven Door should be preferred
to all others now in the market.

A RIGHTEOUS VERDICT.

Our readers will remember that
some two years ago, the late Ralph
5. Smith was killed by man named
Powell, at his home in Redwood.
California. Money was on the side
of the culprit, and his friends sue
ceeded IN winning over the jury in
two trials. On the third trial at
Sacramento, Powell was convicted
OF manslaughter. We copy the re-
port of the sentence from the San
Jose Mercury of Oct. 9Th.
SACRAMENTO, October with culver
ing lips and trembling limbs Lewellyn
A. Powell fell back in his chair when he
heard his fate announced this morning
by Judge Hunt. The murderer of Ralph
:. Smith, late editor of the Redwood
City Times Gazette, has been found
guilty by lenient jury of manslaughter
alter two unsuccessful trials in Redwood
City.
The defendants attorney made a for
NAL motion for new trial on the briefs
heretofore submitted, and Judge Hunt
denied the motion
Let the defendant stand up, !" ordered
the Court, and Powell then attempted to
look indifferent, but soon the heaving of
his chest and the trembling hand With
which he held his ear to listen better
evinced that W thin his busom all WAS
not at rest. In fact, while the informa-
ton charging him with the murder was
being read, tears could be seen in his
eyes, and this was, perhaps the first de-
monstration of conscience that he ex-
hlbited since he fouly murdered an in
offensive and respected citizen.
After having attentively listened to
the indictment, the Court asked him If
he had anything to say why sentence
should not be pronounced.
His lawyer then contended that the
Court had no Jurisdiction, as the homi- |
eide was committed in San Mateo county.
and the Superior Court there alone had |
Jurisdiction.
Without replying to the objection
Judge Hunt pronounced the sentence,
which is the extreme penalty.

THE DAILY

AN eastern exchange remarks re-
garding the address of Mr.. Blaine
at the opening of the Pan-American
Congress published in another col
umn, that it ''has given him a new
hold upon the appreciation of his
countrymen. His sentences were
full of dignifed welcome, of lofty
purpose and of sound advice. His
eloquence was equal to the best
efforts of his earlier years. His sug-
gestions were in keeping with his
official station as Secretary of State
advising the assembled delegates to
act In furtherance of the political
and commercial interests of the
Western Hemisphere, yet dropping
no hint of hostility against the in
terests or Institutions of the old
world. It was the ripe expression
of broad statesman rising to the
Importance of the occasion.

Smith OF Redwood and twice baffled JUS
tice with divided jury, has not found
the Sacramento Courts so easy to delude
with his perjured plea of self-defense.
a sentence OF ten years at hard labor in
the State Prison has followed his con-
viction of manslaughter 1t is the ex-
IRENE penalty for that crime and he may
consider himself still fortunate because
the verdict was not murder and the SEN
tence capital.
1t is an old saying that "iustice travels
with leaden heel and strikes with an
iron hand" 1t is especially applicable
to the courses of California law. Tardi-
ness is the bane of our Criminal Courts !;
while it is their virtue that, as rule,
after much delay they make an effort to
accomplish justice at last. Such is the
history of this homicide of an honest
and inoffensive journalist by brute he
exposed to merited contempt. Powell
will probably end his worthless life in
