TOiletteS for Ladies'.

For stylish evening costumes the silks of
the present season have never been surpassed
in fanciful variety. The interweaving of two
or more colOrs predominates in these tissues
and produces novel and original effects in
blending shades, which are still enhanced by
the gstening MORE surface that is given to
many of them. Among other novelties the
broche moires are particularly attractive, hay
ing delicate broche figures of one color stand
ing out against the watered ground of con-
trasting color. A rich brocade for reception
gowns is called damaS camaieu. This
material has repped ground in some solid
color with design in satin of the same color
shot with white. The painted bengalnes are
evening silks with light grounds, having
printed Pompadour bouquets which look as
if painted in water colors. They are often
combined with new Vicious peluche. These
items, as well as many Others equally attrac
tive, are to be found III the Mcdowell Fashion
Magazines Just received. The latest numbers
of these artistic publications maintain still
their high standard of excellence, which
makes them of inestimabe value to all de-
voices of fashion, and easily accounts for the
wide spread admiration they secured all the
Worlds Fair. A special new inducement has
been introduced in them in the shape of
pattern coupons, by which one can secure
many novelties at moderate prices. La Mode
de Paris and Hmm Of Fashion only cost
$3.50 year each, or % cents copy. The
French Dressmaker is So per a',u"n', or 80 cents
a copy, while La Mode, the home fashion
magazine above all, comes at the very mod
crate price of 81 80 year, or 10 cents copy.

hcatious at your. newsdealers do not take any
substitute from him, but apdly by mail to

Out of its Own Mouth.

What can be more absurd than that ''the
democratic party demands free coal for re-
publican benefit?-JoURNAL.
There is nothing difficult IN that con.
undrum. The repeated assertion of the JOUR
NAL that the democratic committee of WAYS
and means being led by the nose by few
republican manufacturers of New England is
infinitely more absurd. The JOURNAL has
made this charge time and again, and urges
It's readers to remember that if the tariff is
taken off coal by a democratic Congress il
will be done at the dictatlon of a few bull
doing republicans of the New England
States. What would be more absurd than
such a statement ?-Cumber NeWS
If it be absurd, we have the Nescs
own word for the following statement
Manufacturers of cotton and wooden goods
everywhere haye demanded that the burden
of tariff reduction should be distributed; that
if the duty on the product of their mills is tc
be lowered they would ask for a reduction of
the duty on the fuel they used, and there is
nothing unfair or unjust in the proposition.
SO we see that, in the face of the
Neacs' criticism
|, That 1t had admitted a demand
made, not by the democratic party, but
by the manufacturers.
2, Not only so, but in the light of a
democratic demand for something else
"a lowered tariff on cotton and wooden
goods, 'Mere is nothing mtair or unjust'
in the counter demand for lower
tariff on fuel.
Thus the JOURNALS alleged alb
surdity is not only declared valid, but
it is justified by proof that ''the demo-
cratic party did not demand free
coal for republican benefit
Now, reductio ad absurdum, where are
you at!

Strengthening q Twist.

Last week the Homecoming sur SAID =:
Coal is on the free list. 1t is now in order
for the JOURNAL to tell its readers why it is in
favor of it.
The JOURNAL replied:
1t is never in order to eclaircisc an insinua-
ton that is groundess.
Since last week, however, the JOUR
NAL has felt that the Star, obviously
disposed to do it injustice, should have
some reasons from its own columns
sufficient to force anyone to favor al
most anything the Star opposes:
1, The republican party has been disrupted
by few usurpers whose ambition for politl-
cal emolution spurs them on to the most fla
gitious deeds, and if we err not as to the make
up of Juno " he will not be slow to uncover
those amenable for this act of gross injustice
Passing by the reasonable proceed
ings thus alleged of those presumably
simon-pure antagonists of free coal,
we are forced to confess that we do not
know what political emolution" is.
But we do know that Juno" has no
neurological warrant to uncover the
authors and finishers of ''injustice,"
nor the Star to speak of Juno" as she"
2, The party is badly in need of re-organi.
zation, i'll which the recalcitrant mem bers
should be abolished. The leaders played their
cards and won, but there is another time
coming, when the thunder of the peoples
wrath will find its mark.
If any member, "recalcitrant" or
not, be "abolished," there will be
trouble, if not mortality. To this I'M
happy suggestion the JOURNAL is I'M
alterably hostile, whether coal goes on
the free list or not
The JOURNAL does not view hopeful
ly the scheme, above outlined, to break
up card playing. Thunder" it is
well known, takes no aim, nor does it
stop long enough to crawl around to
find" something to hit at Fellow
citizens, "the thunder of the peoples
wrath will no more re-unite the party
by paralyzing the trumps than "abo-
lition" will spiritualize the kickers.
3, The republican party is now in darkness,
but we look to Juno for light.
Vain resort. Juno" is not the god
dess, nol even the patroness of eight"
She is essentially the divinity who pre-
sides over the province and article of
marriage and the egis of the feminine
side of the matrimonial contract.
Hence, to look to her for eight" on
a subject as dismal as republican trea-
son is proclamation most horrid.
Were it otherwise, the JOURNAL
would implore the goddess to tell us
also how we can consistently continue
to be SUPERFICIAL to the brethren in
New England while they remain extra
faithlcss to us.

\ Loud Voice from New England

The Boston 1dseriser, a high pro-
lection advocate of fee coal, puts one
of its arguments in stunning shape be-
fore its New England readers.
Unmindful of the loss to the mine
owners, miners and railroad people of
its o1rn country, il tells how New Eng
land. By diScardipg patriotism, can save
five millions three hundred and sixteen
thousand five hundred dollars annually
simply by abolishing the duty on coal.
1t is true, the Adcetiser commits a
great error in including anthracite in
its calculations.
But the 0nimuS of opposition to a
longer lease of fairfield coal is visible.
and is bound to find expression IN
Congress.
In this connection, the JOURNAL
would like candid answer to this
question
What does the reader think of a
patriotism which
l. Patronizes foreign coal interest
in preference to that at home, Or
=, Uses that coal interest as club
to maui the heads of those at home?
In short, what does he think of such
conduct on the part of people by whose
interests be has lately pledged himself
to stand?

No Child'S PLAY Now.

AS far labor is concerned we are accustom-
ed to these TRADES about low tariff reducing
wages. Statistics show that ninete nths of
the laboring men of the country are not en-
ployed III the protected industries at all
Lsidor Rayner.
When we come to hold our "monster
mass meetings." therefore, we ought
to remember that u vast majority of
the unprotected are against us.
Whether rightfully or wrongfully so
does not now avail.
But the meetings should not be held .
If anything can be done, let us quiet
ly commission Lloyd Lowndes, John
Sheridan and few other inf1uen tial
citizens Of the county to go at the proper
time.
And let the coal companies send
Charles 9. Mayer, J. E. Knapp, J. J.
Alexander, l. n. Lowell, etc.
Let all these gentlemen throw pol
tiles to the winds and unite IN a
business plea.
AS sure as we are living, if we let
politics get into or underneath our
arguments, just as sure will we be in
formed that IRE lure no colid claim to
considerations, much less to far0r.

Two Prophets.
you at Z

The democratic party thus commits itself
to policy that will cripple every industry in
the land, exterminate many, and greatly
injure if not utterly impoverish every descrip
ton of labor, and the organs of the party
applaud the act.-Cumberland News.
That seems too bad.
Like one of McKinley's speeches,
the Ne,os' remark can be utilized to
describe the prospective results of any
policy the reader doesn't like.
Except in this particular--th COM
prehensive Neacs thinks tariff reform a
bosom OF destruction that will sweep
the whole land, while the discriminate
ing Major limits the havoc to "every
industrial State"
The Lord knows which is wrong.
Frostburg mining journal. [volume] (Frostburg, Md.) 1871-1913, 1893-12-02
The Honor will be Divided.

The Cumberland Ne,cS wants to know
ITO whom the credit will be due if
the disaster is averted ?" Then it
says:
democratic committee Of ways and means,
appointed by democratic Speaker of dem
ocratic House, has done all in its power to
abolish the tariff on coal, and in this it has
the moral support and encouragement of the
democratic party.
The committee enjoys "the moral
support and encouragement also of
Hon. Thomas B. Reed. 1t was this
gentleman who got the Honorable
Henry Gilkeson Davis to stultify him
self SO completely that all his super
fuous history of coal tariffs and
bumptious atfectation of superincum-
bent knowledge of the coal business
was overthrow in jiffy.
The Ners next treads on slippery
ground:
But a democratic Congress could not pass
the silver repeal bill without republican as
sstance, although it was essentially an adj
mnistration measure, and with the re-
publican Senators in solid array against the
repeal of the tariff on coal, there is a prospect
of the final defeat of that Ubiquitous measure.
The republican assistance" only
preponderated over republican OBJ
struction, just as democratic favor
overbore democratic disfavor.
But the coal question and the Silver
business do not alike affect the New
Englander's economic notions.
For he is magician with a penchant
for looking out for No. |, and in doing
so entertains no more sympathy for
the coal miner than for the silver
miner.
Hence, his representatives will never
be found, like the Lowlanders, Gin
solid array against the repeal of the
tariff on COAL
There are no W. l.. Wilson's in Con-
gress from New England.
And while the readers of the JOURNAL are
just now being advised to keep in mind a
great many things about the tariff, we hope
they will not forget that the democratic party
is making the effort of its life to take the tariff
off coal, iron ore, lumber, tin, cement and
glass, and that if they fail it will be solely due
to the sturdy and unrelenting opposition OF
the republican phalanx in Congress.
So far as coal is concerned, admit.
ing the NeaoS' statement to be true, it
will be seen that the democratic PAL ty
will have a great deal of republican
assistance"
For there are Il few things upon
which New England democrats and
republicans are a unit, and free GOA
! LEADS all the rest"

We congratulate our contemporary, the
independent, upon its editorial on The
Hawaiian Difficulty" in its issue of today
1t Is one of the ablest, fairest and frankest
statements of the situation we have seen, and
proves that when the great Corliss engine of

down his laurels and passes on into the in

worn by our courteous, courageous and clever

There is nothing in the way of the

1t looks very much as if the great paper will

with its democratic partners as to what is to
be meant hereafter by "a tariff for revenue
nly."-Cumberland Ne~S.

Stunlpcd.

Until it learns more from Hon. w.
l.. Wilson the JOURNAL can make no
answer for his attitude toward coal
AT this moment, however. it looks
like he has decided to retire from pub

brighter future than is apparent to
the vision of the ordinary plugs who
rattle around on these poor low ground

Don't.

Hence, we don't give up the ship"
Don't.
Do the people of Allegany county approve
of the Wilson tariff bill? If not, let them
speak out. Let monster mass meetings be
held in Frostburg, in Homecoming and in
Cumberland, to the end that the voice of the
people may be heard in earnest protest
against measure so pregnant with evil to
the business future ofthis community
berand NerS.
Better go slow about that sort of
thing.
We haye not the State of Maryland
to deal with now.
Even if we had, we might stir up
hostile monster mass meetings" in
Washington, Frederick and Mont
gomery, especially if we inject more
politics than coal into our proceedings.
But if the meetings are held, don't
forget to rescind that platform which
pledges you to stand by the consumers
of our coal, who are primarily and
wholly chargeable with the demand
for free coal.
Above all things, remember that the
recommendation of committee is not
law, but a lot of bulldozing resolutions,
advertising our dependence and ulti-
mateiy our insignifcance, may go far
to make it law.
Must be Uniform to be Permanent.
Hon. William Mckinley and the
Cumberland Neaos are unanimously in
favor of tariff that is permanent.
They appear to think that once
devil-tish gets its tentacles firmly fixed
upon the ship of State its tenure should
be long enough to suck all the blood
out of the corpus and leave it stranded
on the rocks of eternity.
The same arguments hold with refer
ence to the advantages party, now
bigger than the country, would enjoy
if crowned with perpetual dominion.
But we do not want an Egyptian
dynasty of trade any more than we
need an apostolic succession OF high
protectionists, or a reignlng house of
new heirs of divine rights.
The tariff question will eventually
right itself. The people are becoming
more enlightened, and as ignorance,
now the broadest, deepest and darkest
of all known curses, pales away in the
sunshine of statesmanlike philan-
thropy, such as actuated the fathers,
trade will become more and more
exempt from artificial limitations and
more and more the willing subject and
unselfish eXemplar of natural laws.
The notion that consumer can be
made we'll off by taxing him, and en-
riched by taxing him some more, will
be derided not long hence.
And the fancy that the foreigner is
the subject of taxation when we are
keeping his goods out of the country
will be cited a generation hence as one
Of the laughable curiosities of 10Th
century sophistry.
AS matter of fact, no system Of
taxation now in vogue will long sur
vive this century.
The drift is steadily toward the con-
stitutional standard of uniformity.
Until that is reached there should
be no permanence.
And when it is reached the people
will never give it up!

L. V. Powderly has practically been
ousted from the Office of Grand Master
Workman of the Noble Order of North
America, having too often proven I'M
equal, 1t is related, to the demands of
critical emergencies.
One of which, no doubt, was his
.fosco when, inadequately personifying
"the public he demanded, with a
blush he could not wholly repress, Mr..
Webb's reasons for discharging some
of the Nobility of North American
knighthood.
About that time Knight of Labor
was regarded in sklttlsh circles as one
of the Lords Amounted.
But Mr.. Webb was irreverent.
And Mr.. Powderly got no more sat
isfaction than if he had asked Mr..
Webb why he kept combination lock
on his safe.
