Concerning our friends advice TO
keep above poltirS-we could appre-
ciate it now had it been rendered at all
two years ago when the JOURNAL
thought Mckaig unworthy of Con
gressional honor.
But let it be understood always that
the JoURNAL' 5 contention is-that coal
is in no danger whatever of losing its
stdt,tS as one of a very few commodities
protected on tariff for-revenue basis.
Now and Then.
The legal gentleman who wrote
Wednesdays editorial in the Cumher-
land Ne,r~ is pretty smart, but his fads
concerning the JOURNAL betray him.
HIS statement that the JOURNAL dis
covered in 1889 that Allegany county
was 100 years old, is erroneous in two
particulars:
/, The JOURNAL never announced
the fact as discovery, and
,, 1t proposed as early a. 1852 to Oh
serve the county'S centennial in 1889.
The idea of ''discovery" was ap
propriated by the Cumberland Times
a notion which the JOURNAL punctured
until the wind got out of It.
This leads the journal to recall the
fact that our amlable friend, now a
transient editor of the Ae,rS. is some
what of an intellectual Columbus on
his own account.
\ few years ago ne discovered himself
in Il demolished condition after a dis
cuSsion with the Journal Of what h"
is now pleased to call 'f'otj9hts Of labor
against capital.
But what was then understood to be
1.-THE right ol striking labor to learn
why capital had no further use forit."
