THURSDAY, MARCH 81, 1892.

The bang is one of the latest limo
vations among women and girls.
1t had its origin IN the reformatory
for girls on Blackwells island, New
Yorh. The inmates were in the
habit of getting away, and it was
difficult to recognize them after
changing their apparel. 1t was first
suggested to crop them, but this was
considered too sweeping. The bang
was then. adopted, and it was per
feet mark. For some reason or other
the style struck the popular fancy
and in the course of few years af'
ter its adoption as a mark in the re-
formatory became one of the fads OF
fashion.

Here We Are.

The trouble with "Surd,' whose
initials are doubtless A. B., in the
Homecoming star, is-all history is
against him.
Since "the morning stars sang to-
gether' roads have been built before
schoolhouses.
And all philosophy is against him.
For roads have been the great first
indispensable pioneers that forced the
axe through the wilderness to lead
armies and civilizations in its track.
And so in Allegany.
Bad as our school system is admit
ted to be under the existing regime, the
roads are worse.
1t has been ever so. however, where
the sentimental has displaced the prac-
tical-where men in human affairs
took on the force and energy of faith
which works without works.
AS to the JOURNAL.
The great paper is not Il reflector of
public opinion. 1t breaches the Cos
pei, hoping thereby some may be saved.
1t has no respect for public opinion
that is wrong.
And still less for erroneous opin-
ions that masquerade as public-that
have never actually been referred to
the public, nor which the public has
in anyway expressed as its own.
Gentlemen, we stand by our colors-
roads before schoolhouses, and are
amply prepared to defend them
against all corners.

J. Robinson retired too early from
the ring.
And there is joy among the little
Phlllistines, whom Robinson can
thrash with the jaw of their own jack
ass any day.
However, somewhat Of the same talk
that Robinson says influenced him has
been spent on the JOURNAL.
But the latter is IN it to stay.
1t has been said the JOURNAL is
losing friends.
Let such friends go.
Whenever poverty of friendship
overtakes the great paper here 1t
knows half dozen places where more
money is to be made and more prestige
to be won.
SO now, as heretofore, this paper
will be run as its editor elects, or it
will not go at all.
And whoever doesn't like that policy,
let him come and get his money back.
On account OF Ola water WOrkS ulS-
cussions, however, it has lost but one
subscriber, and he is ashamed of HIM
self!
And two new ones this week doesn't
look SO discouraging as the alarmists
make out.
Hence, we shall continue to give the
Ledger more attention than if wants.
Its rejoicing of last week-its pricate
exaltation over getting off from Robin
son so easy will not be repeated in the
Gaze of the Journal.
