VALUE OF SCHOOL LANDs.-It 10 es-
timated that the school lands in this
Territory which will ne subject to die
po.al by the State will aggregate more
than 100000 acres. The value OF
these lands varies great deal, from
- and 50 an acre in some localities, to
$50 and $76 in others, and in few oi
the counties they are worth IS much
as 81 600 an acre. The two sections
in Pierce county are almost within the
city of Tacoma. One school section
in Spokane county is inside the city
limits of Spokane Falls, and King
county also has one very valu"bl' Sec
tion. 1t is doubtless the intention o.
the law granting these lands to the
s ate, that the proceeds of their fale or

OPIUM sE1zURE-Last Saturday

OPIUM SEIzURE-Last Saturday a
crowd was collected in front of the
wash house and general merchandise
store OF Hong Yek on Fourth st; eet
Inquiry revealed the fact that a num-
Der of custom officers were at tn
time engaged in searching the place
for contraband opium supposed TO be
secreted there. From all the facts OBJ
tainable, it appears that some few days
ago about 300 pounds of the drug were
smuggled across the. line. The Off
"n-s O. vo-'nne rointss~i--s Ine rou e
were on the lookout fof It, but somehow
it got by them. Officers sent to search
for the stuff got clew that it headed
this way and was concealed in tn 8
city. Acting on this information they
searched the store and wash house
behind, and succe' ded in finding four
pounds in the former and one in the
latter. The package containing one
pound was clearly contraband, but the
four pounds bore to all appearances
the regular stamp of the United States,
issued at San Francisco, and bearing
the date OF July 1886, and the name Of
F. W. Gushing as inspector. This
class of stamp, Mr.. Bowers, the officer
making the arrest, had never seen be-.
fore, so acting on the presump ption
was contraband he took the stuff away,
not before however, he had assured
Hong Yek that in case it was all right
he would return it to him free Of
charge. 1t was, to say the least, a
strange proceeding. 1t may be that
the officers are all right, but if they
are. they are presumed to know their
business, and certainly could deter
mine whether or not the stan ps W re
g. nuine. One declared they ". re, the
other had his doubts. Thus the ma =
ter stands. 1t was what might be
termed a water haul, and no doubt
they were placed on the wrong track
for it is quite certain that the consign-
mems did not reach this city.

COUNTY NEWS.

The Coming Centennial. - The
JOURNAL claims no great credit for
making the first suggestion of cele.
brating in proper style the approach
ing centenary of the county. No one
can regret more than we the little
wrangle over the matter that has oc-
Cured. But it is not in human ma.
turc, hardly in the divine, to see lit
tie coxcomb of paper stalking and
strutting about and cackiing oven
what the Times did and what it is do
ing and will do as q banker Oh anoth-
er's little capital.
In pleasing contrast with this course
the Cumberland independent of last
week published the following judicial
and conclusive editorial statement:
The idea of centennial celebration of the
formation of Allegany county, first promoted
and advocated by the Frostburg MINING
JOURNAL in its issue of March ~, 1881 again
in its issue of December "A, 1881, and reiter.
ated in its issue of December %, 1888, is a
commendable one, and should be vigorously
pushed to successful issue. The silence OF
the papers throughout the county, including
this one, and exceptingthe Star, cannot b,
too loudly condemned, while the enterprise
and suggestion of the JOURNAL, and its adop-
ton by other papers, is deserving of the high
est commendation. That the JOURNAL is the
father of the idea, and that it is one worthy
of record, cannot be contradicted, and to that
paper the citizens will be- if the plan proves
successful, indebted for it, no matter what
course may now be pursued by the papers
that have heretofore enjoyed such blissful
silence on the subject. To establish the fact
that the JOURNALS claims are well founded,
we copy from its issue of December "a, 1881,
the following;
LOCAL ANNIVERSARY.
1t is not generally remembered that Christ
mas day is the natal anniversary of Allegany
county. Dating back 92 years from to-mor-
row the county was formed by Act of As
sembly, passed December Is, 1859.

You do not Believe in the credit system

yourself that the publishers of labor papers

has frequently found its subscribers

matter of paying for one of the most

THE Meyersdale Pa.) Commercial
gives postmaster Walker the follow
ing boost:
An attempt by the Frostburg democrats
to oust postmaster c. II. Walker whose term
expired recently, is not meeting with brilliant
success. Mr.. Cleveland went back on his
civil service promises by nominating a Mr..
HOLE and the Senate promptly hung it up"
and it will never be heard of again. Mr..
Walker has been postmaster at Frostburg
since the war. He is one of the best officers
IN the State, and that the people wish him to
hold the office is evidenced by his petition
which bears over 800 signatures and measures
nearly seven yards of double column, closely
written names. On the whole we think Mr..
Walker will remain, for it is patent he can
do the office, the people and the government
vastly more good than any untried man, no
matter how intelligent he may be.
The Commercials statement of the
the case is erroneous in several
particulars.
There has been no "attempt" to
"oust" Mr.. Walker. His term ex-
pired Jan. %, and he is now serving
the people as one who is awaiting the
confirmation and qualification of his
successor. Hence, Mr.. Cleveland did
not go "back on his civil service prom
ises' in this case, as those promises"
did not include the re-appointment of
incumbents who do not come under
civil service regulations.
Whether the Senate has chung up"
Mr.. Holes nomination is to be seen.
There are yet twenty-odd working
days, in thewhich the Senate may cut
it down.
Be this as it may, there has been no
attempt to, "oust" Mr.. Walker, es-
pecially none by "Frostburg demo-
Gratis"
If the latter enjoyed any say in the
matter at all the Office would stay in
Mr.. Walkers hands and at the present
location.

The Cumberland Times has inter
viewed a mythical sold gentleman"
on the centennial programme. For
one of his years the anonymous old
man is enthusiastic, if not hilarious,
especially as IAN old resident mot of
the county butt of Cumberland. But
he is very careful to intimate that
Cumberland should ''have prominent
representative delegations from Frost
burg, Lonaconing," etc. He does not
wish it to be understood that it is to
be entirely Cumberland affair, but
we may have representatives in the
blowout. Thanks, awfully.
But the richest suggestion which
emanates from the mysterious veter-
an is found in the following soothing
paragraph:
There should be no pickering among the
press of the county as to who first suggested
the idea of the centennial, or such like un-
important bubbles. To every intelligent
reader of the papers the custom, now almost
universal, of having centennial sesqui-
centennial and various other anniversary
celebrations, is too common and familiar to
require any suggestions as to the propriety of
holding celebration. What is wanted is a
fraternal. concerted effort on the part of the
press, and the centennial cannot fail.
Bless his old, unsophistocated
heart does he not know, for in
stance, that but for the original agita
ton of the Times Baltimore street
would have no friedrich pavement ?
And what is more common and ia
miliar'' than paved street ? In
fact. what is more common these
days than uncommon things? There
are numerous other endowments of
the most ordinary sort that the Times
has secured for Cumberland by con-
ception and agitation, but the senile
unknown does not evidently regard
them as such everyday affairs as
"centennials, sesqui-centennials," etc.
The venerable Hc0g. concludes:
Again commencing the Times for its activ
ity in the premises and urging all public
spirited citizens to respond to the effort of the
Times.
I'm the premises" is good, better
than "the effort of the Tines"
The truth is, the Times course has
already very nearly destroyed the pro-
posal. As a movement it is half dead !;
the other half futtering. The people
will not second, much less aid a
scheme which is to terminate in the
glorification of any newspaper in the
county, the Times least of all.
The occult superannuate should
drop tle Times, suck an icicle, get fat
and live life over again to a better
purpose.
