The Homecoming Star asks where
was the JOURNAL" last fall-when,
''being cognizant' of the transaction
which effected change in tie Ledger's
tone. it did not "lift pen or voice"
against it
The JOURNAL was not ''cOgnlZant7
of the reports as '.Jacts." 1t accepted
them as it has dozens of others us cur
rent gossip, and now forgotten.
And we would not have been able to
recall this one had it not been suggest
ed by friend.
Hence, us ''the professed albiter of
Justice and "eXposer of corruption
we cannot publish every report we
hear of the Ledge1 and use it to i'm
peach its integrity. We cannot knoar
enough, for We are not in position to
learn of its snaps and necessities, its
troubles and temptations.
Nor do we wish to be.
The Ledger is the organ of the UNI
thinking class, and Just now has for
its cause the sophistry side of the pro-
posal to have the people go in debt
quite $40 900 to buy an institution that
is already here, and which is worth but
little more than its waterri ghts, which,
legal and questionable, are agreed
upon as 6 per- rent. annuity upon 500.
There is vast margin between
$4,000 and $100-too vast for the town
to pay without deeper insight into the
matter than that disclosed by the
Ledger'S surface contentious.
And it was feared, and is feared that
few of the fast friends of the old
water company are not disinterested
patrons of the scheme to saddle $40 900
more debt on the town.
The same crowd is hailooing about
the extravagancies of the past and
calling attention TO alleged mismanage-
ment in building the new works.
But while pointing the public eye
backward. their own faces look to the
future.
Maybe the people will be fooled by
the feint on the past maybe not.
For there were no subsidies there.

Some Figures Analyzed

The Homecoming Recie" makes the
following observation:
During the year 1891 the Maryland coal
company mined 406, AGA tons of coal at a net
profit of s1O2, 5S8.1S, out of which two divi-
dends of one per cent. and one-quarter per
cent. amounting to $94, 500 had been paid,
and still producers claim that they are
making barely enough to cover expenses.
If such was the case, we don't think there
would be much coal shipped, but we don t
think that the above figures lie.
Taking the above statement as
correct, the company received small
fraction over % cents per ton for the
coal.
Is that too much for the best steam
coal in the world
The Rerie,r may think so, but down
deep in his consciousness not a miner
comedies with it.
The q per cent. dividend implies Il
total capital investment of nearly four
millions of dollars, for each 500 of
which the investors take apparently
without murmur So so.
How many miners who have money
to invest are looking for y per cent.
opportunities
Not one.
Six per cent. men, everyone OF them.
If they were Maryland company
stockholders there would be Il new
thing in strikes here pretty quick.
Meanwhile, the miners, who have
no interest in the ground, or in the
coal, or in the plant no concern as to
the cost of the land, or of the building
and running the extensive parapher-
MALTA of handling cOal-gets twice as
much for digging the coal as its owner
gets for hauling it out of the mines,
dumping, carrying it to market, losing
1t on the way, keeping account of it,
and getting the money for it.
SO that the claim of the companies
that coal mining and shipping from
this region are not boanza is well
founded. Adopting n current slang
term, they are Sin it," and must make
the most of poor investment. made
poorer by heavy taxes and, until late
ly, the fear of contiscation by the
Knights of Labor.
1t is we'll to remember, also. that
generally the investor expects to get
back the amount invested.
Not so apparently in the coal bust
ness. The goods go off shelves never
to be replenished by new stocks. The
principal gradually grows less as its
basis is swept away. All that remains
is the little dividend, and the very
process which realizes that poorreturn
is slowly but surely bringing on
period when even =! per cent per onnum
will be numbered among the things
of the past

Well Said.

The Frostburg correspondent Of the
Cumberland Times recently wrote:
Our new water works are doing well and
with few hundred dollars more we will
have the purest water and cheapest works in
the State, taking everything into considera
ton, and any person, be he an editor or not
has not the interest of our city at heart when
they try to belttle the work done by our
water board.
That is exactly what is the matter,
and the JOURNAL re-publishes it so
that the Le'lger, not seeing it in the
Times, will notice it here.
The JOURNAL is under Obligations to
the Times vivacious scribe for com
pliment which the great paper is too
modest to reproduce.
Although it would like the Ledger to
see it, read it, clip it and paste it in its
hat for reference when the prophets
come to compare the details of fulfil
ment with its metaphorical prediction

BeXOnl the Law.

"A Master-Workman' Oath" is the title OF
a recent novel. We were under the i'm
preston that there was a law prohibiting the
publication of swear words except by dashes
and exclamation points.-Cumberland Ne,cs.
The oath is not made public-that
is, the oath of Office, and the law never
reaches inside the assembly.
The assembly is ga law unto ITSELF -
and when things go crosswise the
amount of informal cussing reminds
the unfortunate church people of the
Noble Order of historical observation
concerning the army in Flanders"
The ceremonious profanity of the
Noble Order is not so vociferOus.

Able, but not Willing.

The Ledger cannot get over the JOUR
NAILS use of the old water.
But the JOURNALS reasons therefor
are good, and they involve no incon-
sistency whatever.
They can be substantiated as
Mf"hbly good.
They are of a private-not public
nature, but will be fully and freely
given to any citizen skeptlcal of JOUR
NAL consistency.
The JOURNAL has no concealments
in connection with any public question
in which it has been or is now con-
cerned, but it does not want to lug a
purely private matter into popular
view.
If nothing else will do, however. it
will come out.

Fair Weather Partners.

The fad of profit-sharing is threat
ened at Coal Creek, Tenn, as sop to
the miners there.
1t is very apt not to work.
For this reason:
The Knights of Labor are strong
devotees of a system which divides
profits.
But when loss comes they beg to be
excused.
eve are protit-sharers, not loss
sharers," said bright assembly in
Illinois few years ago.
In other words, it is all turkey for
the Knighthood of the Noble Order of
North America all buzzard to every
body else.

Two Cities.

The people of Rome get their supply
of water, which is said to be remark
ably pure, from the Apennines through
an ancient aqueduct that was con-
structed by their forefathers.
The main supply pipe, it is also
said, tunnels the mountain and thus
the city gets the water from both
sides
The old company there. as here,
wants to sell out, but the city. which
owns a new system of supply, con-
tends that the people have the old sup
ply anyhow.
In other words, the miller doesn't
need to buy the water that is already
turning his wheel.
The town council of Rome is worthy
of modern city.
And the town council of Frostburg
would have fitted Rome about the time
Ben Hur tlourished there.

Trade.

Would our county commissioners
levy sum of money to blacksmith
to build a stone bridge, or to a jeweler
to build a wooden one?
Yet thousands of dollars are annual
ly given to men to repair and build
roads who know no more about the
work proposed than blacksmiths and
jewellers about bridge building.
The JOURNAL is melted to make this
observation because it notices that
