think the JOURNAL is conducive to
the i'll health of incendiaries, espec-
tally the word, "inshallah." The Re

1t seems impossible for Cumberland
and Frostburg to get along amicably
in baseball matters. There is feel
ing down there that the city must win
that it is presumption in the metropo-

the latter goes to the expense of hir-

The JOURNALS solemn Judgment Is
that the best way to avoid the frictions
which Cumberland arrogance and in

Bound to be Disguised.

The Cumberland Neps thinks the
Presidents message disappointing.
The message is all about silver
little about tho tariff nothing about
coal.
The Neacs wants the Sherman law
repealed, but does not seem to want
the Cleveland people to do it.
The Neos does not want the tariff
disturbed, but banters Cleveland for
desiring the job postponed until the
silver question is out of the way.
The Neacs is uneasy aboat coal at
the same time it would be much dis
appointed, if not displeased, should
the rate on coal be left just where it is
at exactly the incidentally protective
figure.
Readers of the News, however, should
take heart. 1t is its business 70 be
disconnected under the current regime.
That is the secondary purpose of its
existence, the first being to regard the
politically unattainable with rose
colored satisfaction.
From its standpoint the democrats
can and they can't;
They will and they wont;
They'll be damned if they do,
And be damned if they don't.

GENERAL ITEMS.
Twelve Days at Atlantic Cit,

The last of the series of summer
excursions to Atlantic City, via Balti
more and Ohio Railroad, will be run
on August 18th. The same arrange
ments will be made for the accommoda-
ton of those ayailing themselves of the
low rates and superior train service af-
forded on the previous excursions, to
enjoy a respite by the seaside. The
scenery en- route is unsurpassed by
that of any other route in America.
Tickets will be valid for return
journey for twelve days from day of
sale, and will be good on all regular
trains. On return journey they will
be good to stop off at Washington,
thus affording an opportunity to visit
the numerous public buildings, which
are open to visitors free of charge,
and to take trip down the Potomac
to Mt. Vernon, the tomb of Washing
ton, as well as to visit places of inter-
est in and near Washington.

a Narrow EScaDe.

The partisans of the artesian we'll
failed to get their scheme for an
economical water supply adopted.
Perhaps it is WELL
If the reader doesn't think so, let
him take in the account, elsewhere
printed, of disaster which followed
the artesian we'll enterprise of a
Prussian town.
OF course the JOURNAL never for a
moment thought of the possibilities of
either or both general wash-out and
cave-in. 1t had and still has robust
faith in the practicability of obtaining
the trans, Savage water by boring on
this side, more copiously than now and
spontaneously.
But, we repeat, it never apprehended
that a test might tap a compressed
lake which, given vent, would rise and
throw its imprisoned volume with the
very vengeance of sudden emancipa-
ton upon this blessed town.
The trouble with the antagonists of
the artesian scheme was-they did not
believe the trans-Savage water accessi-
BILE from this side because they con-
fessedly belong to a college of philos-
ophers who conclude the bird is not in
the bush unless they can see the bird.
Hence. had the town of Scheidemhul
had councilmen like ours, that place
would be intact to-day, with nothing
to modest or make the people afraid,
except increasing liability to cholera
scares and depletions.
At the same time. had the Frostburg
system of dealing with artesian
phenomena prevailed throughout the
world since the morning stars sounded
the reveille which awoke and marshaled
the sons of time into an army of con-
quest over the forces of nature, never
gold, silver or coal mine would have
been opened, nor tunnel driven, nor
a we'll bored, nor the sublime penetralia
of geology uncovered to the gaze and
study of mankind.
That things are as they are, although
prospectively expensive to degree
that is frightful, is possibly "a coudi-
ton and not a theory
But while the JOURNAL lives it will
believe that the dingus ought to have
been turned the right way.

The Cumberland Courier some time
ago furnished definition of the word,
pupils" Implying that it means,
primarily, 'orphan boys and girls"
Should this inference be correct, the
Courier differs from Webster who, if
he embodied the idea of "orphanage"
at all, makes it the secondary defn-
ition.
Then, with some asperity, the Courier
inquiries:
Has old Synonymous "Crabb' stung you,
that you now forsake him, in the very school
room?
The JOURNAL had not consulted
Crabb until it had read the Courier's
rather tart question. 1t then found
that the greatest and best synonomist
had overlooked or ignored the word,
pupil" though it is the most literal
personifcation of "the taught" that
exists.
The primary definition of Scholar"
it is true, appears to be exactly synon-
ymous with the JOURNALS conception
of the true meaning of pupil"
But the latter term Is far preferable,
applied to attendants of our public
schools, because it cannot be confused
with the higher definition which makes
scholar
"A learned person; one versed in any
branch of learning; a pe;son eminent for
erudition; sauoat.
Indeed, Webster goes farther and
defines him as
One acquainted with books only; book.
learned person pedant;-i contempt or
reproach.
If the reader will now return to the
word, pupil" he will see that 1t can
not possibly be used to define person
of learning. nor furnish ground for
sarcasm. Shakespeare is quoted in
favor of this view. Said he:
Too far in years to be pupil now.
AS the JOURNALS object in correct.
ing the Courier was to lead it to the use
of better word, and not to ostracise
"scholar," it feels that it has succeed
ed in establishing its contention-that
''pupils," as defining constituents of a
school, is preferable to scholars, y
just as tutor is better fitting than
teacher when speaking of the auto
crat of the schoolroom.
The JOURNAL believes also that the
word, training" is literally more de-
scriptive of the tutors office and pro-
cesses than either instruction. or
"education," because it is the sub
stantial word for each and embodies
both the practical ideas of imparting
knowledge and enforcing discipline.

Not SO Fast.

Water is very scarce at Eckhart mine, and
the people down there would like to have an
extension of the Frostburg water works in
that direction Frostburg should lay down
this law: Annexation first and water ex-

ger.
Not necessarily.
If Eckhart is willing to pay for
good water, and we have plenty of it
to spare, only the ducats are indis-
pensable.
We might supply Cumberland, too,
without peremptorily making it a
part of the metropolis.

How to Bring Down a High Price.

Hay is said to command 500 ton at
Berkeley Springs, w. Northumberland
Times.
When coal was 1926 per ton the
price was too high. it was said, and in
order to get it down toa normal figure
the tariff was lowered from 81 % to
Is cents per ton.
Now, what the hay consumers of
Berkeley Springs want to do is to get
the tariff on hay reduced from 81 to
about $3.50 per ton, which would, or
ought to reduce it from 500 to about
1915 per ton.
We make this showing in order that
that some historians and logicians may
see what their statements and argu-
ments lead to.
For if raising the tariff increases the
price of an article, and then lowering
the tariff because the price gets too
high, are each effective, it will not do
for the high protectionists to come in
afterward with plea that short crops,
superinduced by droughts, have any
thing to do in the case.
Because the fundamental cause of
national growth and development in
the high protection school of philoso-
ply is the tariff.
Our fertile soil and genial climate
are not factors in the scheme at all.
Hence, we cannot allow the Berkeley
Springs consumers to be told that the
high price is the outcome of short
crop, just as the short crop is the re-
suit of the dry weather.
1t is due singly and surely to the
apprehension that the party in power
is going to reduce the tariff-in this
ease especially, the tariff ON hay.
Yet, strange to say, the way to bring
the price of hay, like that Of coal,
down to purchasable availability, is
to do precisely what the wreckers fear
the democrats are going to do.

In addition to the talk of extending
the mains to Eckhart, the Cumberland

asked for about ten thousand gallons

Meanwhile, the rush for domestic

1t would not be bad idea for the
Water Committee to get enough patron
age to keep the pump going s or 10

full capacity when necessary and
partially when not so that the water
