Untimcly Embryo.

fact that for mature conclusions weekly
papers are far superior to the dailles.

more uniformity generally Of policy

Material, Not Personal Reformation.

The organ of the Court House Ring has
reopened the question of a change in the
method of drawing our jurors. 1t is rather
early in the legislative campaign to begin the
discussion, but SO vital an issue can not be
too thoroughly understood by the people, nor
can it be disguised by any sentimental non
sense as to reflections upon the honor and
integrity of the judges. We are after the
system, not the men.-Cumberand Times.
That is a centre shot.
1t is "the system, not the men," that
needs reforming.
For systems only can be changed by
legislation.
But men are rarely reformed by any
thing less than 1.-The love of God shed
abroad in the heart
SO that when it comes to pass, dear
people, that the plea is made that the
Jury commission bill is a reflection
upon the court, investigate the plea
to rockbottom and see whether the
court authorizes the plea, or even re-
CARDS it as valid.
If the court says it is, then we may
ask each other-why the transfer of
power to appoint School Commission
ers to the governor did not also result
as a reflection upon the court
But if the court says not, who shall
say otherwise?
Nobody but the dem agogues.

The keyser CIV. Na.D Ecbo will also
have to look out:
The Cumberland .NemS gives an extended
account of the downfall of one young man
who came to that place bidding fair to succeed
in business and honor. This Is but one case
among thousands, and yet the same paper
advertises the same kind ofliquor that proved
too much for the young man in question.
If only the old drunkards would patronize
the saloons, they would soon shut up, but,
alas the bright youag men and the boys are
filling up the gaps as soon as an old one drops
out The poor young man went to Cumber-
land a stranger, and they took him in.
The Cumberland Times quoted a
partnership business in New York as
something similar to one strongly sus-
pected as going on in this county, and
is now hanging on the ragged edge"
for it.
We mention this to the Echo as a
"cautionary signal" to hug closely the
West Virginia shore.

1t is understood there is demand
for an additional policeman-this time
to prevent burglary.
prevention is better than cure
but people forget that modern axioms
of law are very stringent as to proof.
Forinstance, if policeman prevents
burglary, how is he to proue that the
supposed burglar is real burglar,
and that he was going to commit a
burglary?
For 1t must be remembered that
charges should be accompanied by proof
that would stand in court of law.
Which shows that everything has
got to come right down to dots, OF
there's no case.
1t is all right to ''suspicion'' a man
of wanting to 60 to the Legislature,
even if he has repeatedly said he
doesn't want to go and cant go, but
as a rule it wont work-unless the

MINING JOURNAL.
Some Surprise Laid.

We are little surprised, in fact we are a
great deal surprised, to learn that the Frost
burg JOURNAL approves of the movement to
obtain an appropriation for a government
building in Cumberland Something, we do
not know what, is moving in "a mysterious
way and has made change greatly in the
nature of a wonder indeed, in the mind of
the Journal when it finds anything to ap
prove concerning the past, present or future
of the Queen City.-Cumberland Ne'cs.
The Ne,cS' memory is bad, or its
perception of differences between cir
cumstances is not sharp enough to cut
butter.
The JOURNAL never condemned any
greed Of the Queen City that could be
gratified from outside the county. On
the contrary, the JOURNAL has long
expressed its faith in great future for
Cumberland that it has the environ
ment and the geographical position
essential to the development of a big
inland city.
1t has, moreover, rejoiced privately
and publicly over this prospect.
The fault we have found with Cum
berland involves funny local considera-
tons. We have not admired the citys
cupidity in county affairs, especially
the policy which makes taxes high a.
possible, because, two-thirds of the
revenue centreing in the city, makes
the scheme more and more profitable
to the city. AS matter of fact, the
higher the taxes the better it is for
Cumberland.
so that the change which the
NclrS sees with ''suspicions' has
not taken place, nor does the
JOURNAL entertain the slightest eX-
pectation, hope or wish to go to the
Legislature, or to hold any other pub
lie office The JOURNAL kn0rS abso-
lutely that it cannot be nominated non

THE THIRD Parry.
The Peoples Party Meets and Nominate :
a County Ticket.

The peoples party branch of the re-
publican party held their city conven-
ton yesterday afternoon in the district
court room. The delegates held an en-
ecutive session previous to admitting re-
porters and the general public. at which
everything was carefully fixed.
The convention was called to order by
Dan Mckay. the well -known republican,
and 1t was soon seen that he was the
controlling spirit Of the convention. On
his motion J. f. Nun was chosen chair
man. W. Wales secretary, Messrs. Lar
son, Wales. and Wylic committee on
credentials. and Dan Mckay, Goalby,
and Campbell committee on resolutions.
\ recess was then taken to give the com
mittees time to report. On reassembling
the committee on resolutions presented
the following report, which was adopted:
We indorse the national and state
platform.
We favor such changes in the laws of
the state as will relegate all questions of
local concern and the raising Of revenue

county and thus relieve the Legislature

Of the great mass of local legislation that
now hampers action and prevents due
consideration of matters of general in
terest.
We demand that the public affairs of
the county be administered with a liberal
economy. That the taxes collected be
expended for the purposes designed and
not boarded for private speculation.
That a system of public improvements
on roads, bridges and buildings be begun
and carried out.
We further demand that the law for
the inspection and count Of the public
money in the %treasurer's hands be en-
forced. and the placing of surplus county
funds at interest by the invitation of
bids for the same.
We favor that the location of the state
capital shall be voted to some city not
employing degraded Chinese labor. All
other conditions being also favorable, and
that it shall not be sold to the highest
bidder.
We also demand that public officials
shall not use their Office patronage to
perpetuate themselves in power.
For the enforcement of these measures
we hereby pledge the peoples party of

prevailed that the action Of the Great

prevailed that the action of the Great
Northern was equivalent to a declaration
OF war. Said one Of the officials:
II Mr.. Hill wants to create a disturb
ance in rates in the west and is eager
to put himself against the t%ransconti-
mental lines he will find his hands full.
If the Canadian Pacific and Atchison
should enter the list with the Great
Northern there will be considerable fur
flying around this region before a twelve
month has passed, and unless ] am very
much mistaken the Great Northern will
not be in it. or course the other trans
continental roads could make it hot for
Mr.. Hills system to, but they are not
likely to resort to extremes as rapidly as
the Atchison and Canadian Pacific. 1t
seems to me that the withdral of the
Great Northern is to be regarded as a
challenge, that it means a determination
OH the part of that road to see what it
can do. OF course the competing roads
will follow any reduction that the Great
Northern may make, and it will be simp-
ly a question which road can hold out
longest.
In other quarters the opinion was ex
pressed that Mr.. Hill merely desired to
shake himself free from the shackles
Of the transcontinental association
and was not actuated by any selfish mo-
tive.
At the Great Northern offices no fur
ther light could be obtained on the stu
alton. Mr.. Hill was absent from his
desk all day. and none of the other
officials cared to talk. Vice President
Clough declared that it was a matter of
no public interest. General Manager
Mohler vas equally uncommunicative,
while Mr.. Finley, general traffic mana
ger, contented himself with reiterating
the statements made in the Pioneer
Press on Sunday-namely. that the
Great Northern desired to give the re.
gion penetrated by its western extension
the benefit of reasonable rates. This
latter statement might be construed as
showing a hostile intent on the part of
the Great Northern.
At the Milwaukee offices it was learned
that the action of the Great Northern
was looked upun as portending serious
trouble. If Il fight takes place the
Northern Pacific will marshal its force.
and see the contest through. The
Canadian Pacific. it is also thought
will take a hand in the rate demOraliZa
ton, and this will naturally drag thu
500 in and one Or two OF the Chicago
lines. Before this can be done. however
it will be necessary for the Soo's western
extension to be completed. and it is prob
able that operations at this end will b'
pushed forward still more vigorously. A
u competitor the Canadian Pacific is no
TO be despised. With the government
backing which it enjoys it is in a bette
position to transport freight for nothln!
than any other transcontinental road
The Chicago lines are not directly inter
ested in the matter at this stage.
