a MaItreated Public Servant.

1t is the JOURNALS opinion, backed
by the Judgment of many good people,
that William Orr, of Barton, citizen
and county commissioner, is the unde-
served object of the meanest abuse
going about the county advertising
matter.
There is no more honest man in Al
legany county than William Orr.
And as public servant there is no
safer man.
He may err in judgment, like all of
human kind, but he will not in motive.
When the issue came down to Re
rie,c or Star, he preferred the Rerie~.
That was his right-a prerogative,
individual and official, not to be de-
MED, and one that no honest man OF
newspaper can impeach.
The JOURNAL has reason to believe
that Mr.. Orr is not its particular
friend, yet the JOURNAL would trust
Mr.. Orr far beyond the Homecoming
Star.
1t will go further and say as between
the parties at issue-that what Allie
gany county wants is more William
Orrs and fewer Homecoming Stars.

Political.

The democratic primaries are call
ed to meet Thursday, 23d inst, the
county convention on the 18th, to
send delegates to the State convention
ON the 30th inst.
The Frank Brown Club invites the
cooperation of all democrats (see adj
vertisemenD in nominating an ac-
ceptable primary ticket.
The JOURNAL understands in the
latter connection that the main con-
test in No. IL revolyes around the
issue between H. |. Hartman and T.
G. Dillon, both of whom desire to go
to the State convention in Farmer
Browns interest. Hartman claims he
knows more people i'll Baltimore and
the State and is generally better post
ed than Dillon, but the latter contends
that he (Dillon) is also well acquaint-
ed, etc.
If the county convention will send
As delegates to east the county's e
votes, both can be accommodated
provided, a delegation favorable to
their aims can be sent from here.

Like the Cumberland Times with
trade Secrets the Lonaconlng Star
is growing desperate.
1t has begun to quote the JOURNAL
against itself-the subject-matter be
ing the Star.
1t appears to imagine that ''when,
in the course of human events" the
JOURNAL, the friend of the good and
the ally of every laudable enter
prise, is moved by some periodical
or Providential occurrence to say
an encouraging word of contem-
porary, it is forever committed to
that line of statement; that it is
thereafter debarred from employing
its old and pet role of criticism.
This is grotesque error, to be ex-
cused only by the reflection that the
Star, like the Times, is comparatively
new in the business and Just at this
time bowling along under special
provocation of an extraneous nature.
That the Star ever questioned 1.-THE
JOURNALS grammar" therefore, is a
matter which has occasioned the JOUR-
NAL more sorrow than anger.

A Rising Young Man.

1t was somewhat of an old. time
celebration of the Fourth that the
people of Somerset, Pa, held, and
among the incidents that thrilled the
patriotic yeomanry of the ancient
borough was an address by A. J.
Colborn, jr., of Scranton, Pa. Where
of the Somerset Herald says:
Mr. Colborn then delivered one of the most
eloquent and patriotic half-hour addresses
ever listened to by an assembly of Somerset
county people, and most of whom were sur
prsed to learn that our young Jack" is an
orator of such power and ability. In his
brief talk he covered the history of our
country's glory so completely that little was
left to be said by the eloquent speakers who
followed him. He was frequently interrupt
by the hearty applause of the vast crowd.

Alleganian in Roanoke, Va.

The Fidelity Loan and Trust COM
pany, of Roanoke, Va, held its first
annual meeting on the LIST inst Says
the Times:
J. T. Engleby, the president, submitted his
report and was unanimously reelected, and
his salary doubled in testimony of his excel
lent management.
The other officers and directors,
thirteen in all, comprise the leading
business men of Roanoke.
The paid-up capital is 5000, 900; the
resources and liabilities are $3.50, 072.3l
Of the latter $34, 065.33 appear to in
dictate the first years profits. Over
$4,000 was distributed in dividends.

this satisfactory result is ascrlbed, is

the forces which have made Roanoke

No Joke in This.

The JOURNAL has to be misquoted,
garbled or lied about by its critics.
That class of the worlds gentry can
dispose of it in no other way-to their
own satisfaction.
For instance, here is statement
from the Cumberland Courier:
The Frostburg JOURNAL says Frank Brown
was once miner Cor rather 1t says Frank
Brown said so, which is Just the same, and
that settles it, if he did say it,
The JOURNAL never made that re-
mark, nor anything like it.
This without the least reflection on
the miners, for there are not few of
them as well qualified and deserving
of gubernatorial honors as the Honor
able Frank.

The (oaI Trade.

The market for bituminous coal can

manifest are those which 20 to prove
that the situation, already healthy, Is

continues to come forward, although
it is not as great as II was IL few weeks
ago. Tidewater trade, both here and
in the East is reported fair, with no
tendency to cut prices. Reports that
few Eastern dealers are buying at
concessions doubtless arise from the
action of small operators outside of the
Seaboard Association. who are com
PEELED to realize. aud who cut prices
to do so. Their quotations are used as
hammer, but without any apparent
effect. The question of increasing the
allotment must necessarily soon be
given consideration. Up to date almost
every company has shipped its allowed
tonnage, and from present conditions
will continue to do so through the
year. Inasmuch as all the companies

We will not attempt an excuse for our
mistake of last week in using don't for doesn't.
The fact that we knew better makes it all the
more reprehensible.-Lon Star.
That is precisely where the star is
mistaken.
1t did not know better until it saw
the JOURNAL.
Then it quotes the JOURNAL against
itself:
The thoughtful writer is not always the
best housekeeper of good English. Not an
issue but has contained an error, or errors,
penned in haste, overlooked in proof, but
seen all too plainly when too late.
Every word true as gospel.
But the JOURNAL has never assumed
that certain regulations, as laid down in
the books and upheld by Prof. Dewper,
are Medo-Persian code, omnipotent
us ''the almighty dollar" and UNI
changea bic as the natural law which
enables "ships to foat.'
The Star welded all these ''immu-
tables" and ''immortals' together.
and the JOURNAL punctured the i'm
penetrable compact by citing the Star

making verb with plural com

A Sunday School Ananias,

The paragraph below is taken from
the "bulletin' of Sunday school
convention to be held at Homecoming
next week:
Homecoming is situated about 81 miles S.
w. of Cumberland, in the heart of the far
famed Georges Creek Coal Field. 1t has a
population of 5,4l9, being the second town in
Allegany county in point of population, and
the fifth in the State.
What an awful lie for a Sunday
school authority to start out with !
Why, protesting christians, Iona
coming is no more "second town in
Allegany county in point of popula-
ton, and the fifth in the State" than
heaven is an everlasting political mass
meeting!
