vEAMoST INSURANCE COMPANIES

Vermont, including expenses, in 1891
and 1892. Sl,2ll, 59s. while the premi-

The JOURNAL stepped into t well

act of editing daily newspaper. He
stopped long enough to tell the JOUR
NAL that he had just 'paralyzed the
great paper pointing to some MSS.

The JOURNAL demonstrated, how
ever, telling him ''the Frostburg Lc3ga'
had a copyright cinch on the term,
'paralyze,' with all its derivatives,
collaterals and proceeds"
The word, "pulverize," was sub
stituted, not because ''it was more
tenderer," but to show that the jour
NAL must be ground to powder as well
as knocked out in way that is totally
constitutional.
Part of the military editors per-
Torrance appeared next morning as
follows:
Capt. J. b Oder, Of the great paper, was in
the city last night Let us see, was he a
captain? Well if he was not perhaps he
ought to have been, so it goes.
This was a sumner, because it then
looked like a scheme to substitute the
bloody power Of the sword for TIE
benign omnipotenco Of the pen.
The title well BELTS the military
editor, however, because he earned it.

seeks the rear rank it would be an

CORRESPONDENCE.
King for senator.

CUMBERLAND, Mn, July Is, 1893.
To the MINING JOURNAL.
While the republican nomination
for State Senator is going a-begging,
there is no such evidence of political
bankruptcy on the democratic side,
when the almost surety of an election
is bringing to the fore the names of
the ablest men in the ranks.
Notably among these is Alexander
King.
Mr.. Kings special and general
qualifications are too obvious and
universally admitted to need extended
newspaper presentation to exploit
them.
Likewise his claims in the right
sense of the word-upon his party's
goodwill cannot be overborne.
Moreover, Mr.. King Is q man who
has warmed both hands before the fires
OF life, and so can number friends by
the score, who will be swift to help
to help his candidacy and elect him if
nominated. ALLEGANY.
