Cleveland is idiotic. He expects
to accomplish the impossible. The
New York World announces that Gro
yer the Great has prepared the follow
ing program for the extra session:
First-Silver reform by absolute and
unqualified repeal of the Sherman law.
Second-Tariff reform TO be prosecuted
| in accordance with the pledges of the par
ty as soon as (but not before) the finances
OF the country are again upon stable
basis.
When an irresistible force strikes an
immovable body one or the other must
give up the belt, as for each to main
tain the championship would be a
physical impossibility, but we believe
Cleveland would maintain that each
could retain its honors, as he is enter
tanning ideas just as wild when he
speaks of unqualified repeal of the
Sherman law and a stable basis of
finances in the same breath. When
he cries for tariff reform as soon as
the country's finances are on firm
basis and not before, and in the same
breath shouts for unconditional and
absolute repeal, he seeks to harmonize
two facts that are as antagonistical
as irresistibility and immovability.
Cleveland must either recede from
tariff reform dependent on better
times, or he must change his silver
stand Times will not get better un-
til silver receives liberal treatment.
And if tariff reform depends on good
times, Cleveland strikes a blow at

HOW DO YOU Sl'AND2

Down in Weir city, Kansas, the
folks are having little taste of the
sweets of the immigration laws of
our country. In the recent strikes
and disturbances in the coal mines
there has been several encounters
with knives, pistols and clubs which
resulted in considerable loss of life.
As commentary on the matter we
would simply point to few extracts
from the press dispatches:
The foreign element among the strikers
, is the loudest in violent talk and the men
are constantly stirring up the women to
take leading part in violence, on the
supposition they will not be fred on. Just
before noon. band of 500 strikers which
had been marching to the various strip
pits reached Glen Oats pit, about a mile
south of here, headed by 100 women. \
The women, mostly Germans and Bo-
hemians, entered into the fighting more
iiercely even than the men. They welded
clubs with vigor and precision and did
great execution.
1t is the same old tale and shows
the rottenness and danger of laws
that permit in any degree this influx
of Wired, mongrel foreigners
men by nature brutes and anarchists;
masculine, Gorgon women who are
more iiendish than the men. They
are the Goblin moths that are boring
to the core of our national apple. We
are for barring the foreign pauper
element out of our land without re-
gard to nationality. How are you on
the immigration question?
The Weiser signal. [volume] (Weiser, Idaho) 1890-1904, 1893-07-27

lost its grip on all but two or three,
and the reaction is beyond the reach
of words. The offspring of fleet
ing passion is left to wander in the
wide world without father or mother.
The symptoms of this stage of an
attack of public spirit are various.
Sometimes the paroxysms are occas-
Toned through bordering too intently
on some matter which is agitating a
nation from one end to the other and
which appears to be of such vital i'm
portance as to call for an expression
of sentiment from people and places.
The cry rings forth to meet me by
moonlight alone at some set time and
place. But when the set time comes
to repair to the set place, the dream
has passed and the ardor of passion
has become dimmed. We who were
loudest in shouting the battle cry
suddenly realize that the rendezvous
is furlong too far, that it is too hot,
that the walking is a little bad, and
many other things that prove our
folly, and we long for a gold cure for
aggravated public spirit 1t was this
sort of public spirit that resulted in
the downfall of Rome and the de-
parted glory of Greece, the defeat of
the hare in his race with the turtle,
the state of the Arkansas man roof,
the undeyeloped state of our slum-
bering resources and the impression
that we as a community never heard
of the silver dollar.

PUBLIC SPIRIT.


Who does not admire public spirit?
that great, broad principle that takes
hold of men and leads them on to the
accomplishment of great things. All
great countries, all rich, wealthy and
developed communities, large or
small. all magnificent towns and cit
les, owe their greatness to the exer-
else of public spirit. When YOU
enter q place and see a roar and tur-
MOL of business, beautiful streets,
elegant sidewalks, orderly govern
ment and all the modern conveniences
of electric lights, street railways, water
works, etc, you know that it is all
due to public spirit. When you see
county prosperous, well to do and
well governed, with excellent roads
good bridges and contented people.
lay 1t to public spirit. When you
hear town spoken of often, see
people going to and from the place,
visit it and find it lively, prosperous,
neat and business-like, you can lay it
down as a certainty that its people
are blessed with an abundance of
public spirit. But in some places
public spirit is very, very deceptive.
1t is an intangible quantity which now
you've got and now you haven't got.
1t plays a sort of thimble or nutshell
game with men which fools one aw-
fully and is dreadful wearing on the
constitution. At one moment it
grabs man from all sides at once.
grabs his neighbor, grabs his dad,
grabs his partner, grabs his brother.
grabs every man in community
and shakes them up and down, rattles
them round and round and bumps
tnelr heads against the clouds until
they feel powerful, irresistible I'M
pulse to stride forth amid the forces
of nature and nurse the germs of
sleeping possibilities until they bloom
forth into life and they have made
themselves crown of grandeur and
fame. To drop down notch, they
feel that they must do something. To
think is to act, and grand rush to
the most convenient hall is made, the
speaker speaks, the secretary scratch
es, heels hit the floor in harmonious
hilarity and the thing is under way,
some project is born. Yhe time rolls
around for another consultation as to
how best rear the child which they
have laborcd and brought forth.

End Member for Frederlksted (BroUn) in
troduOed the Interpolation, and said he hoped
that the reasons for having an Oven for dis
injecting purposes in Frederiksted would be-
obvious, not only to His Exosllency but also
to the Members Of the Council. Iii the first
place we have one here in Christiansted, and
a. far az he was informed, it served it's pur-
pose fully in Frederiksted we have none ito

= thing is urgently necessary in Fsederiksted,
especially in view Of the mode Of operation
employed by the Collector Of Customs thera
for disinfecting mails arriving from suspected
ports. That mode Of procedure is the source
Of ridioule, laughter and fun to people Of
course the gentleman in charge Is not to be
blamed; there IL no orher or better way pro
Yided, and the thing has to be done, and he
does the best he can still it is nevertheless a
perfect carioature. If 10 be Of benefit to the
country, disinfection must be carried out in
a different way In now making his Interpret
j. lation, he did not intend to have anything to
do. with the working out # a plan for such an
oven; that must como from Government but
he wished to impress the necessity Of having
proper arrangements to protect us also
in Frederiksted against infection from abroad.
We all know what sufferings have been oaus-
ed in Europesvery recently from the dreaded
scourge, and we have communication there
and particularly with the United States to a
greater extent than is the case in Basin. We
must try to use all possible human ~exertion
to prevent the disease from gaining access,
for we might come like St. John, there might
be mono left to tell the tale afterwards.
The Governor: If such an Oven is really
wanted in Fredsriksted the Government will,
of course, not be opposed to its being procured
But whether it is really wanted, must be-
left to the consideration of the Sanitary Authori-
ties inf Frederiksted, who must bring forward
a proposal. The Quarantine Commission,

Commission, these three Commissions are the

THURSDAY. DEC. %, 1898.
We WISH our many readers q very
Happy New Year.

WITHIN the past few days petit
tions to the next General Assembly
OF Maryland asking that body to
submit to vote of the people OF
Garrett county the question OF the
election Of our School Commission
ers by ballot. have been extensively
circulated throughout tn county
for signatures.
This is a question of vital impor-
lance to taxpayers and children of
the county. 1t is also IN line with
the resolutions which were adopted
by the late Republican County
convention.
This is not political question
and we do NOT advocate the passage
of the measure IN political grounds.
1t IS a matter above mere parti-
sanshlp and one that vitality affects
the future welfare of Garrett county.
No good reason can be urged against
the submission of the election OF
the School Commissioners by ballot.
We have nothing to say against
the present board of School Com
mlssloners, but it is apparent in
nine cases out of ten had the people
an opportunity to say who should
preside over and disburse the pub
lie school funds that more efficient
service would be obtained.
Again, we believe it to be an in
herent right of the people to say
who should occupy all positions OF
public trust and confidence, and If,
for no other reason than this, il
car readily be seen that the people
should elect the School Commls-
sioners.
We trust that deep interest viii
be taken in this matter and the
people, regardless of party affilia'
tions, will sign the petitions and
that those who have them in charge
will see that they are promptly for
warded to our representative al
Annapolis.
