"A Yard OfPansies."

The more we look at the beautiful copy of
"A Yard of Panses' that we have received
from the publisher, the more we are
anxious that every one of our readers
should possess one as it is certainly a
work of art so we repeat what we have
already said before, that here is chance for
everybody to get, free of cost, an exquisite
oil picture 36 inches long, a companion to
"A Yard of Roses" which all have seen and
admired. The exquisite picture, "a Yard of
Pansies,' was painted by the same noted
artist who did the Roses" 1t is the same
size, and is pronounced by all art critics to be
far superior to the Roses" The reproduc-
ton is equal in every respect to the original
which cost $500, and is given free with every
copy of the June number of Demorest's
Family -ndgazine. This June number is a
grand souvenir number in celebration of the
SEVENTEEN anniversary of the birthday of the
publisher, and is worth many times the cost
which is only 20 cents, as every purchaser
will get practically free, an exquisite picture ;
and to those who already have "a Yard of
Roses" "a Yard of Pansies' will be doublv
valuable, especially as accompanying it are
full directions for framing either the
'Pansies' or Roses" at home, at a cost of a
few cents, You can get the June number Of
Demorests Family Nagazjne containing "a
Yard of Pansies,' of any of our local News
dealers; or send 20 cents to the publisher,

GENERAL ITEMS,
Model LDcOmOtiye En- ninn

The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad has
just placed in SERVICE on its Chicago
Division three new passenger engines,
built at the Baldwin Locomotive
Works, after new designs furnished by
the Gen.l Superintendent of Motive
Power of the B. e. O. Company. The
engines weigh $4,000 pounds, have
driving wheels 6 feet inches in
diameter, cylinders 10 by "A inches.
and are without doubt the finest pas
senger locomotives running into the
City of Chicago to day. Companions
of these new engines have developed
wonderful power and speed in hauling
the famous Royal Blue Line trains,
which run between New York, Phila-
delphia, Baltimore and Washington,
over the Philadelphia Division of the
B. & O. Railroad. The B. & O. has
added over forty new, high class
engines to its motive power equipment
within the last sixty days, and others
are under construction. While con.
stantly adding engines of approved
design and highest grade to its mctiye
power, and passenger coaches of Pull
man standard to Its rolling stock, the
B. & O. is also expanding large
amounts for additional second and
third tracks and sidings, and improved
facilities at terminal points. By the
time the Worlds Fair is opened for the
reception of visitors the B. & o. will
be well equipped to handle, expeditions
ly, the large volume of passenger traffic
which will naturally seek this pic
turesque route from the Atlantic sea-
board to Chicago.

Easy Task.

At great expense and brainache the
Ledger emits its little spasm of virtuous
Indignation over the editorial mis-
adventures of Robinson, 1t says in
beginning:
The verdict of the court in the Robinson
criminal libel case should prove a salutary
lesson t. those restless spirits who consider It
their duty to SANDER and malign all who may
be politically or otherwise opposed to them,
or who may Intentionally or unintentionaliy
incur their displeasure.
And in conclusion:
The lesson was needed and it IS to be hoped
that its application will be productive of good.
When the JOURNAL looks back to q
spot somewhere in the neighborhood
Of October, 1890, and applies the above
eXordium and peroration, it wonders
whether after all, life is not Il waking
dream, OF a doing reality.
Indeed, when we remember even as
late as one short year ago, when it was
still mailing clapboards of independ-
ence down to its platform of absolute
and unchanging defiance of the world,
the flesh, the devil, and the ring, we
ask ourselves in bell-metal Whispers
why is this thuse
And the other day, when we saw Il
young man buy a book entitled
"Why Am | What Am ?" the JOUR-
NAL thought of problem which ought
to if it does not veX the Le}yer when it
cultivates, if it ever does, the study of
that prime philosophical injunction
know Thyself.'
But, seriously-did the Lelger learn
its ''salutary lesson" from its ex-
perience Of 1890?
If it did not, what else induced it to
become so good?
But was that lesson "salutary."
Hardly.
Otherwise, Avirett and Robinson.
seeing the Ls'}ger's reformation and
good works, would have worshiped the
ring, stood in with the powers and
pressed on to glory.
1t is hard to say just now, therefore,
whether the Cumberland Times and
Homecoming Star are missionaries or
martyrs in cause which involves
somewhat the freedom of the press.
But it is easy to announce that the
| Frostburg Ledger is neither.

clear himself, we had to assert our
prerogatives. Sometimes he would
not stop until he would have an article
in the paper aboutit, indicating him
self, OF course.
After waiting a certain length OF
time-too long, | am sorry to say, the
other two members of the Board came
to the conclusion that it was high time
to shorten his bride rein. But this did
not stop him from kicking, and, a good
deal like the chap with long ears, if he
didn't get his own way he wouldn't
moye peg. Complaint was made by
member of the Board as to the way
he kept his books, and oh, what Il
storm 1t was that followed And Mr..
Haverstick resigned the secretaryship !!
Ever since he has been acting the dog
in the manger;" he would not do any
thing himself and would not allow any
body else to do anything, if he coul /
help it.
Mr.. Haverstick, in his article of May
9TH, said that he could not join his col
leagues in their report, as 1t was made
out where he could have no access to

that he ought to give some assistance
in the matter. The three members of
the Board were present at the time.
Mr.. HaverStlck SAID that he would not
give US any assistance, because | had
refused to allow the books to be taken
to the Council Chamber to be made up.
And, as if shod with "Neverslip
SHOE Mr.. Hayerstick never allowed
his foot to moye from the position he
took that night, and we received no
assistance from him to make the re-
port. Bat Mr. Haverstick had declared
long before this time that he would
not assist to make out an Hemized re-
port. | asked him if he thought the
public would be satisfied. He replied
by referring me to certain gentle
mans eXpressiOn-''the public be
id" He fought against getting
out an itemized report, and did every
thing In his power against giving the
Mayor ard Council any different kind
of report from what he had submitted
to them before, and said that he be-
lieved that it was unreasonable for
them TO ask for anything different.
In the final report he says there are
items that are misleading. Well. we
would like for him to point out these
items we would be glad, for instance,
if he would show us what became of
one sum of $50. and few other small
err sums that we could find nothing to
show where nor to whom the money
had been paid.
The question has been asked time
and again why it was | did not allow
Smith to take the books to the Council
Chamber to be made up. When Mr..
Haverstick resigned the secretaryship
the books after Il little were turned
oyer to me. | examined them and
found that MIR. Haverstick in a few
cases m01e his figures to balance at the
bottom of the column. SO | deemed
it my duty to hold on to the books, as
it was understood by this that Mr..
Hayerstick would give three days of
his valuable time in the Council Cham
Der to straighten things in general

Partly Fulfilled.

Two weeks ago the JOURNAL sug-
gested to the Cumberland Times and
Homecoming Star the following plan of
action:
if you have erred, or overstepped the line
of Just criticism, acknowledge it and retract
the offensive matter.
This suggestion was ignored by both
papers. Not only so, but each aggra-
waited its offense by repetitions of the
Objectionable matter. Judge Stake
said:
When the indictment was found and Mr.
Avirett discovered that the article had APP
peared in the columns of his paper, he did
not disavow it, he did not retract it, nor did
he apologize for it. On the contrary, he re-
published the libelous article with the in
dictment, and promised some rich develop
ments at the hearing.
Otherwise, the time will certainly come
when this advice will be recalled ana declared
good!
Again:
have waited and searched the columns OF
his paper in vain to see if he would say he
did not authorize the publication and that he
did not sanction it, but his paper has been as
silent as the grave on the matter. All this
was left open and instead, he republished the
libel and promised developments at the
hearing.
Robinson, it was found, did no better.
The Judge said:
can discover no good reason why there
should be any distinction made between this
and the Robinson case and | will impose the
same penalty upon him.
1t is evident judge Stake not only
looked for retrieval of the wrong done
by these men, but he was wishing to. fnO
something of that nature. He was
manifestly anxious to turn his dis
erection far as pc sible in their favor.
But he looked in vain.
The result is known.
Half of the JOURNALS prophecy i.
literally fulfilled.

Some Water Board History.

FROsTBURG, MD, May 10, 1892
To the MINING JOURNAL.
AS usual, Mr.. Hayerstick has gone
to the press with another complaint.
He has been kicking and gruntIng,
fretting and tuning, and people have
been wondering what in the wide
world was the trouble between him
and the Water Board.
So | will try to explain how it is as
near as can recall the facts
to the end that the readers of the
JOURNAL will understand what has
been rubbing the hair the wrong way
on Mr.. HaverStrck.
OF course, Mr.. Haverstlck was the
secretary. and very often h was pres
ident. secretary, and the whole Board,

he was, and seeing that he was running
us into sandbank now and again,

some Medicine forLawyers.

IN sentencing JOnn w. ANlreIl,
editor of the Cumberland Times, and
J. J. Robinson, editor of the LOnacon-
ing Star. each to 80 days in Jail, 500
fine and costs, and confinement until
paid, judge Stake is reported to have
said, among other things:
1t is necessary that it should be understood
in Cumberland that men are jealous of their
regulations In this city, so jealous are the
people of their regulations, that life has been
taken because of publication of libelous
matter
The JOURNAL dissents from that
statement, not as a fact, but as 0reaS0n
for judgment against the trayerSers.
1t makes no difference whatever
whether or not Cumberland men ''are
Jealous of their regulations"
The question was-was any man in
jured by the defendants publications
Probably so perhaps not
But the Court having set the seal
of its reprobation upon immoderate,
perhaps libelous editorial censorship,
let it next turn its attention to sup
pressing the venom of the bar against
those who, having also no voice in
court, are liars, thieves, robbers,
scoundrels and villains-because they
happen to be on "the other side of the
case"
Let it be seen, for instance, that
witnesses, sworn to ''tell the truth. the
mhole truth, and nothing but the
truth" are protected from the strategy
which seeks to obtain falsehood-in
warp and wool, and nothing but
falsehood.
Let it be understood that abuse of
character by lawyers before juries and
the public that throngs the courthouse
is a privilege to be hereafter denied to
them as well as to newspapers in the
court which sits out Of doors.
There should be no reserved rights
in the premises; no privileged classes
whatever, and no monopolists Of pro-
fessional abuse.
Let it be published also that these
men shall treat their legal brethren
with gentlemanly decorum, for in that
same city of Cumberland, where men
are $50 jealous Of regulations that
life has been taken''-a lawyer died at
the hands of lawyer, because the
latter's integrity had been assailed.
If, therefore, the gentlemen who
have brought Messrs. Aylrett and
Robinson to punishment imagine they
have instituted reign of terror, or
secured more official immunity from
public oversight, or have inaugurated
little millennium, let them be sure
that they deserve hereafter all they
have WON'T they have won anything.
Let them be exemplars of and among
themselves of the rule they have set up
for newspapers.
The great trinity of political dis
coveri"s-the independence of the
citizen, the freedom of speech and the
liberty of the press autedate somewhat
the mechanism by which it was design
ed they should be regul@ted-not re-
strained. They are the springs which
give force to judicial functions, and
they cannot be dried up without self
hurt The engineer cannot throw the
fuel away, waste the water or shut
off the steam and expect the locomotive
to go.
The press is tie eyes, ears and tongue
of free people.
Or it is the sightiess mute Of slaves.
