There are more pretty young ladies in this town, than any other town Of like size in the Territory. But, alas why should we gIoat over this fact, far in the matrimonial line our name is Dennis. Still, we cannot contain our indignation, when at every turn we see thesc-sup- posed intelligent young ladies-giggle and laugh, and almost go into mysteries over the silly sayings of some calIow youth, who has net brains enough to go in out of the wet, Evenif We do squint through a pair of spectacles and haven't hair enough on the top of our head to fill a !ady's pin-cushion, this, in our pri- vate opinion. is not sufficient cause for the cold shoulder. We will continue to live-in hopes-if we never git thar"

Country Roads.

Attention cannot be too frequently
drawn to the Importance Of good roads.
In cities. even. the pavements of the
ular taste and the public spirit than
are the walls of public buildings. In
the country, roads are the measure of
public and private enterprise. They
favor or hinder intercourse according
as they are good or bad, and upon in
tercouIse depends to large extent
the intelligence and refinement of u
people.
The Romans knew well not only how
to conquer. but how to clvl!lze and to
govern. They We're the road builders
of their time. There are miles and
miles Of road bed still in use In Eng
land that was laid down 100 or
1900 years ago. In France they
are older and more extended. Along
these lines have grown up some of the
largest and most prosperous cities Of
the world. Through many centuries,
the thoroughfares furnished all the ad-
vautageS of nayigable waters.
Bat argument drawn from the profit
and loss account is the one most
effective in these days, sAd that. is the
one which readers are most likely to
meet with pretty often in our public
prints. Several estimates made by
experts upon economic questions have
been recently published.

Does Not Measure Cp.

Our esteemed contemporaneous dis
seminator of epigrammatic bon mats
down the valley, the Homecoming Star,
cannot get over the journalistic dual
ity Of H. w. Schaidt.
1t cannot understand how "a Knight
of Labor who is also managing po-
litical organ" can be expected to get
census figures right.
That is nothing.
The JOURNAL knows Il man-con-
fessedly "a Knight of Labor first and
a democrat afterward," who is strong
ly suspected of owning stock in ga
newspaper-not an organ,' and yet is
able to keep himself solid as an anvil
with the old soldiers!
As compendium of conflicting per-
sonifcations, therefore, Schaidt is no
novelty alongside the JOURNALS hero.

Future oi'the c. 90. Canal

y letter to the Sun from HagerS-
town, Md. furnishes an interesting
statement as to the most recent phase
of the G. Il o. canals long and desperate
struggle for existence rs a WaterWay
Ine OPINION Is expressed that the in
terestS OF those now in possession. who
are practically acting for the Balti-
more and Ohio railroad, lie not in
drying up the canal to get rid of the
competition from which the railroad
has suffered in the past, but to restore
and develop it as Il water way, so that
ii shall become All important adjunct
Of the railroad in the transportation
of coal from the Maryland mines to
points of shipment AS water taus
Iortatlon is much cheaper than car
rlage by rail. it is thought that the
Georges Creek coal could be brought
INTO successful competition with the
coal from the Pocah0ntas and ka
nawha regions of West Virginia,
which is now playing such an import
ant part in the development of the two
Nlrglnlas. If this is done. the con-
sequences to the Maryland miners and
to the future prosperity of the canal
could hardly fail to be most beneficiai
Canal boats of much stouter construc-
ton than those now used on the canal
would doubtless he built for the trans
portation of coal down the Potomac
to Lambert's Point and Newport News
or some adjacent landing, and the
whole business of the canal would
change from the insignificant character
and proportions OF recent years TO II
really serious transportation enter
prise. The peculiar conditions by
which the canal is now hedged about
its emancipation from the control Of
politicians, the oversight of the courts
and the obvious Importance Of u
vigorous policy by the new manage
ment to protect the large amount of
money which must be spent to restore
it and to escape the penalty of a sale by
decree OF the court-may prove to be
precisely those which its friends have
sought m vain fol so many years in
order to insure it new life and vigor.
Everything of course depends upon
the course taken by the B. and O.
railroad. and it is to be hoped that
the latter's policy will be such as to
bring about the results which seem to
be within reach of those who have
been placed in possession of the
canal. -Baltimor SIN.

As SuaI, etc.

An article copied herein from the
Baltimore SIM indicates that the canal
is to be restored and run as Mary
land enterprise for the main benefit of
Maryland interests.
The JOURNAL had some hand in the
fight against the scheme which pro-
posed to turn the canal over to com
pcting coal region, and the very hap
by result is in exact accord with the
object sought from the very moment
that this paper sounded the first
alarm.
Under the present regime there is
more work for this region and less for
its comprehension only i'll Elk Gar
den, but in Pocahontas.
Under the scheme of the spoilers
there was to be more work for Elk
Garden and less for Georges Creek.

To the MINING JOURNAL.
would like TO say a word or two
through your columns to Free Traders.
| would like especially to speak to
Irish Americans. | make no claim of
originality for what | shall say. |
honestly believe that any genuine
Irish American, who loves both the
Gould Island" and his adopted coun
try. too, If he will consider a few facts,
and then act up to his conviction, will
never cast another vote for free trade.
| do not say for the Republican party.
or against the Democratic. Thousands
of democrats are protectlonlsts. Some
republicans are free-traders. | think
it a pity that this should be a party
question at all. All lovers of America,
it seems to me. should have but one
opinion as to this matter
Now. Ireland as 70 this matter has
a history. Would that Irishmen
would look into it "a little. Let me
help them. . y.
Some centuries ago Ireland was a
prosperous country. Her industries
were diversified her people happy.
1t was the boast of Europe that she
produced the finest goods worn. The
Italian poets of the 18th century
praised them. Their serges of the
finest wool were largely imported to
the south of Europe. Englishmen
were proud to speak of their fine cloth
ing as made in the Emerald Isle.
This continued until the reign OF
William the Third. lreland's woes
then began. Englshmen began to
coyet the wealth freshmen We're gather
ing. In 1899 they passed IL law de-
hberately suppressing Irish manufac-
lures. They were forbidden to manu-
facture and export the products
of their own soil. Lord Dutferin
has said-"when the Irish turned from
the manufacture of wooden goods =
because of the law referred Toto
other employmentS, one after another
was laid under the strong haad of the
law until not an opening was left tor
the hated Industries OF Ireland to re-
spire at"
In 1882 the Irish people. encouraged
by the American revolution, arose in
arms and demanded the liberation OF
L
OF Home Rule. The American Con-
gress sent special address. drafted
by William Jay, sympathlzing with
them and giving their reasons. They
related largely to this matter ! have
in hand.
When, in 1872, the Parliament of
Ireland was set free, one of its first
acts was to pass a protective law
That tariff lasted till the Act of Union
in 1901. Its operations We're closed by
1910. Under it Ireland prospered.
The Earl of Clare admitted in 1899
that under this tariff of 1882 ireland
had ADVANCED faster than any other
country in Europe-in agriculture,
commerce and manufacturing. Glare,
too. was an enemy of that tariit
Judge Piurkett, 4 distinguished Irish
ju4st, insisted on the same facts in a
pamphlet published in 1889 in that

MINING JOURNAL
FROsrBURG, MD, DECEMBER 6 1890.
Words Fifty Spoken.

Sometime ago in Baltimore four sail
ots were arrested for refusing to go
aboard schooner after having signed
articles to do 50. \ suit followed,
the delinquents being ''sustained and
soothed by the unfaltering trust of
the Knights of Labor in a platform of
ethics which is not yet law.
At the conclusion Of the trial, the
court room being thronged by mem
bers of the Noble Order, [. $. Commits
sioner Rogers, after carefully weigh
ing the testimony, said:
My lads perceive you are men of intel
ligence and no doubt know and appreciate
the advantages of union Every man has a
perfect right to unite with his fellow man to
better his condition in life. There is one
great mistake made however and that is
the constant conflict of labor and capital.
Now, can't see why such state of affairs
should exist because labor is in itself capital
and capital merely represents labor.
A capitalist, you will find, is man of
strictly sober habits He has to keep a clear
head, and the man who to-day earns dollar
and tomorrow morning wakes up with
seventy five cents in his pocket, Is the man
who may become a capitalist No doubt
your union is a good thing-the land we live
in is a union.
But not let me impress upon your minds,
that while you have a perfect right to form a
union, you have no right to interfere with
the manner in which another man conducts
his business. When a union attempts to in
terfere with, or modest free born American,
or tries to prevent his earning living simply
because he does not Join that union, it then
becomes a conspiracy and amenable under
the law, and punishable by the court. The
great trouble with the unions is that they
overstep their bounds and endeayor to force
people to do as they direct and that is an act
in direct violation of the laws which grant
American citizens their liberty.
Thence the Commissioner diverged
to some equally wise remarks con
corning the press, Of which he is man
ifestly a wide-awake patron and high
" intelligent admirer
dom, the press--the most powerful agent Of
the people-is ever ready to air the grievances
of any one who Is oppressed or molcsted
Nothing. from the great acts of a government
to the death Of a paper, escapes the eagle eye
of the press.
Tyrants fear the press more than any
other power which can be brought to beal
against them and the press of America, a.
it is to-day, edited by men of the creates
ability and highest order of enlightenment
is the bright mark Of the country.
But holding ON to the main point
he returns and clinchcs the nail in the
following paragraph:
Now, in conclusion, let me say to you tina
the man who endeavors to persuade you It
fight against apital-except i'll legal manner
is no friend
That is it exactly. The walking del
egate, the master workman and all tho
devils of lesser degree in the Noble
Order are the worst enemies working
men have.
The relations between the two pre-
sent one of the few cases wherein il
appears religious for worlungmen tC
reverse the age-honored scriptural in
junction-and make it read
Hate your enemies
