"A Constant Menace"

Duncan Sinclair, mining superin.
tendent of the New Central coal COM
pany, went to Annapolis one day last
week. In passing through Baltimore
the Ne,cs had chat with him, where
in Mr.. S. is reported as SAYING
that while everything is quiet now nc
one can tell how long that condition will
last. So long as the miners maintain the
strong organization they now have it will
be constant menace to the peace and pros.
perity of the coal region. All the mines are
working full time, and the indications point
to prosperous summer for the region.
$50 long as the Miners" in short,
are strongly organized against 1.-THE
peace and prosperity of the coal
region" so long is the situation UNI
certain!
Wonder if that statement is not hard
for strangers to believer
Yet how true it is-how deplorably

Fashionable White ToiIettcs for
Ladies,

Ladies.
AS the summer season advances white
gowns are the favorites for the sea shore and
mountains. White flannel as well as serge
are adopted for mountain costumes or yacht
ing SUITS and are even worn in bicycle riding.
For the morning, white toilettes of pique
duck and linen are seen in endless combina-
tons. Besides these, the following materials
are largely in demand: China silks, barges
dotted or embroidered, Swiss muslins, and
all the varieties of nansook and dimities
Among the novelties in summer millinery
white is also popular. Artistic hats are made
of tulle, and the delicate milk-white chip
hats are trimmed with white MORE and white
flowers in picturesque confusion. The
iavorite wrap at the summer resorts is the
golf cape, in white cloth, lined with some
dainty bright color in plaid or brocade In
the Mcdowell fashion magazines are found
numerous details concerning these novelties,
the patterns of which are offered in the form
of coupons at very moderate prices. La Mode
de Paris and Paris Alb,m of Fashion, cost
$3.50 each per annum or 3J cents a copy.
The French DressD,aker is So per year, or 30
cents copy. La Node, a unique family jour
nal in the colored plates, cost only $50 per
year, or Is cents copy. The three first
mentioned publications offer each 81 worth
of coupon patterns and La Mode fifty cents
worth of the same as premium for yearly

A Puzzle,

Baltimore seems to be reaping an
early retributlon for it's unfair and un-
generous encouragement of the free
coal fallacy.
1t seems that vessels plying between
the city and New England carry coal
northward and bring ice back. The
suspension" here disturbed the inter-
ests of navigation somewhat. and the
boatmen added an average of Is cents
a ton freight.
This afforded the ice men a pretext
to raise the average price of ice in the
sum of 1925, and now it is freely and
universally admitted that ice costs
three times as much as Georges Creek
coal"
The funny part Of tne business is
ice is New England product. and, like
coal, raw only for arnihilation, get on
the free list of the otherwise protective
Mckinley Act.
What Baltimore cannot understand,
therefore, is-how in thunder, if
putting coal on the free list is going
"0lens ootens to cheaper fuel-how is it
that ice, already WIDELY and almost
solely unprotected, sells normally at
twice the prlce" of protected coal,
and ultra normally for "three times as
much :"
There is an explation of the phe-
nomenon available.
When made 1t will show that, if
there is any change in the cost of coal
at Baltimore, it will be higher under
low tariff or free list auspices than it
is now.

Two lightning Storms

Monday afternoon John Counihan
and Harry Boies, miners, were pain
fully shocked by strokes of lightning
at Midlothian switch, nearly two miles
south of town. With three others
they had taken shelter from the rain
in the switchbox. A telegraph wire,
heavily charged with electricity, tell
upon the box with the result stated.
The two men had to be carried home,
but they are going about again.
Bruce Folks house, on Hill street,
was struck by lightning Tuesday after
noon. Chimney was entirely torn out
and stove-pipe thrown over, and Mrs.
Folk was severely shocked. Her
sister-in-law. Mrs. Right, was badly
frightened, but not hurt.

AGOOd Idea,
The Baltimol e Sun Saws

The Baltimore Sun says
1t is often difficult to induce local author
tiles to deal with the question of hog pens in
closely populated towns. The average man
in the country clings to the hog-pen as his
great and inalienable right, unmindful of the
fact that it frequently costs more in doctors
and undertaker's bills in a single month than
the hogs are worth in years.
The SUMS comment is brought out
by movement in Hagerstown to
ameliorate the hog-pen danger.
The town council is considering an
ordinance Cooking to the abatement
OF nuisances and to the general preser-
walton of the public health, concern
ing which the Sun further says:
DR.. Simmons ordinance deals with the
hog pens in an ingenious manner. They are
not directly prohibited, but according to its
terms no hog pen can be maintained without
the consent of all property owners within five
hundred feet of it. While this might not
prove at once effective, it would at least give
every person the option as to whether his
family should breathe pure or poisoned air.
Just at this time when there is
some debate of the sanctity of indi-
vidual rights, there ought not to be
much controversy over the wrong of
one citizen keeping on his premises an
institution which constantly threatens
the health and lives of his neighbours
family.
When, therefore, citizen contem-
plates, say January l, next year, or at
any time thereafter, to establish hog
pen, or continue an old one at the
same stand, he should be required to
ask permission of council in writing
to do so, his application being en-
dorsed by all residents within 500 feet
of the proposed pen.
We need just such regulation here
in Frostburg. and need it bad.
For it is folly to watch and report
unclean alleys and leave one of the
prime causes of unclean alleys to do
its deadly work.
In short, the people want sanitation
that sanitates.

GENERAL ITEMS,
\ New Doctrine,


81 deny the statement of the Senator
from New York that such d doctrine
has been a consistent democratic
doctrine" He then quoted from a
series of tariffs framed by democratic
statesmen to show how coal had been
taxed at high figures by them and even
after Il reciprocal fr,e-coal arrange
ment had been made with Canada. the
treaty was abrogated by democrats
and coal was put back upon the duti-
able list. Even under the great
Walker tariff the duty was double
what was proposed then went back to
the democratic platform of 1881 to
show that free coal and iron were not
demanded in that document. Neither
were they demanded in the celebrated
tariff message of Mr.. Cleveland in
1887. They were not demanded in the
Mills bull, as he called Mr.. Mills to
witness.
Mr.. Mills arose and declared that it
was not his fault that coal and iron
were on the dutiable list in his bill.
He had been compelled to compromise
on these matters in order to get his
bill through
The platform of 1888, Mr.. German
went on, did not make these demands.
In 1892 "a plank was prepared for the
convention at Chicago, of which MIR.
Cleveland approved, making no such
demands. But the radicals-the ut
most extremists for tariff reform in the
convention-took charge of things,
and passed a resolution endorsing the
Mills bill, which taxed coal and iron
ore each 10 cents ton. On this basis
Mr.. Cleveland made his campaign and
was elected. Where was the great
democratic principle of free raw
materials here? Is 10 cents ton a
revenue duty or not? You have. i'm
ported at 10 cents a ton more than a
million tens each year from 1891 till
now. This reduction of duty nearly
one-half will double the importation
and produce revenue as high as that
which we get now
who wants free coal :" Mr.. Cor
man asked. "Not man, woman, or
child uses imported coal for domestic
purposes. Free coal would not save a
dollar to the people themselves

Facts Against Errors.

The Cumberland Necs puts its con-
tentions closely and strongly, but it
builds them on foundations worse
than sandy.
Note the instance below:
The Cumberland Ne,cs is invited to investi-
gate Mr.. Mills assurance
that it was not his fault that coal and
iron were on the dutiable list in his bill. He
had been compelled to compromise on these
matters in order to get his bill through.
Now, the question is-was Mr. Mills ''com-
PEELED to compromise" with the republicans?
-Frostburg JOURNAL.
r, The Jo fmIt quotation Of Mr. Mills re-
and as it failed in democratic House, the
presumption is that 1t contained too much
protection to coal and iron to suit the people
who recently voted almost solidly for a meas
ure which assigned coal and iron to the free
list. The pressure to which Mr.. Mills yielded
was eXerted before the committee of WAYS and
Means which he was chairman. That COM
mittee hearkened to the voice of the people
interested, and the result was that the perfect
ed bill provided for a tariff of IS cents ton
on coal, out democratic House refused to
adOpt it,
The present committee of Ways and Means,
of which Mr. Wilson is chairman, refused the
people hearing; protest was unavailng; coal
went on the free list, and democratic House
approved the measure. If the JOURNAL keeps
on at this rate it will soon have its democratic
friends SO deep in the hole that the hand of
resurrection wont reach them
The italics are ours.
If the Necs will look at the Record of
the 5Oth Congress, LIST session, page
$3.50, it will see that the Mills bill
passed the House of Representatives
July 81, 1888, by vote of l62 yeas to
149 nays.
And although the committee of
which Mr.. Mills was chairman "heark-
ened to the voice of the people inter-
ested," the l49 high protection votes
above cited were cast against both
that ''voice" and IS cents per ton duty
on coal.
Again-"the present committee
not only did not "refuse the people
hearing" but it is pity it did not
''refuse !" 1t was the two hours hear
ing of Hon. H. G. Davis that sealed
the doom of coal. Our commodity
had some show before that catastrophe,
but none after. And the gentleman
who most completely compluded"
Mr.. Davis and wound him up to look
the appeals he could not speak was a
New England congressman named
Thomas B. Reed.
To complete the symmetry of this
historical statement it is necessary to
recall the fact that after the Mills bill
reached the Senate Mr.. Allison pre-
sented IA substitute" which, ..hearken-
ed to the voice" of the 149 xotes.in the
House and placed coal on the free list.

Cannot be Otherwise.

Strikes always fail.-T Y. Pomderly.
Mr.. Powderly has been wrong
several times in his life-once and
notably in his controversy WITH Mr..
Webb, vice president of the New York
Central railroad company.
But when he said lately that "strikes
always faiT'' he was correct throughout.
For, IN the end, strike cannot win.
To win, it must perform a miracle.
1t must force consumer to pay
more for a given product than the
consumer eventually has the money to
pay with.
Let the reader extend this train of
logic and he will find that when a
producer revolts against the man who
employs him, or who buys his goods,
the latter Will eventually get even in
either Of two ways
L, He will buy elsewhere, Or
,, He will get along with less goods.
The striker may win-temporarily,
but in the long run the consumer is
bound to come out ahead.
Necessity is the mother of inven-
tion.' 1t is also the sole and final
prerogative of those who buy-never
of those who, to live, must sell the
labor of their hands, or heads, or
both.
