for educational advantages. In Cum
berland the case is radically different
Here there are many parochial and
private schools, and an academy
which does primary work and which
now has increased facilities in the
higher branches. 1t thus happens
that we have large body of people
who personally are not interested in
the public schools except so far as
they may be enthusiastically inclined.
Hence, we can hardly expect any
flame colored outgrowtll of feeling
here on the matter.
What you suggest in the extract
given above is preci, ely what tue
county commissioners designed to do
when they issued bonds to the extent
of seventy thousand dollars to build
school houses, ]. e., ITO separate the
item of building from the item of
schooling expenses"
do not mean to chal ge the School
Board with having built too ambitious
ly in some localities. | do. however,
think that if they have exhausted the
bond proceeds. it is clearly the duty of
these gentlemen to borrow the neces-
sary SIX thousand dollars to run the
full term, even if debt be thereby
incurred.
Closing up the schools because you
havn't exactly enough money to run
them is just AS reasonable as to lock
up the courthouse, close the almshouse,
allow bridges to fall, roads to go I'M
repaired for similar reasons. The
idea of great and wealthy county
like this, which often spends us much
on some murder case, allowing $500
children to run the streets for four
months and-a-half-to forget what
they have learned before, and to ac-
quire much that they had better not
know, Is something almost incon-
ceivable.
One term, even OF 81 months, is
too short. 1t should be full ten
months, as ten other counties and Bal
timore city already have. Only those
teaching children have an idea how
slowly young minds absorb instruction,
and, how swiftly, on the other hand,
good imp essiouS are effaced by street
life, with its moral contamination and
and intellectual degradation. Has it
come to such pass in Allegany coun
ty that the highest welfare of $500
children is to be set in the balance
against pitiful $6,0O09

Better Curb that Anxiety.

We are really anxious to see how Mr..
Williams will align himself on the new
tariff He was for protection to coal and
other things two years ago. Has he ex-
perienced change ?-Cumberan News.
If Mr.. Williams will take pointer
from the JOURNAL, he will do what his
competitor in the light of current
events will not be able to do--make
exactly the same speech in the Georges
Creek coal region that he delivers in
Montgomery county.
Too much public attention in agri-
cultural sections has already been
drawn to coal as mendicant for pro-
lection to make it safe to hold Mr..
Williams to too severe account here.
For if he wants to go to Congress
very bad, he may afford to let his
several hundred party votes go here
and appeal to the several thousand of
agriculturists, to whom "free coal" is
now a desaleratum.
But his true Platform is here and
elsewhere-as long as anything is pro-
tected coal is entitled to its full share,
and pledge himself to do all in his
power to secure it.
His competitor can say no more,
promise no more, do no more.

Do IL RiCht.

Two strong letters this week tend to
emphasize the JOURNALS suggestion
that hereafter the county commits
sioners should provide money enough
for ten months schooling, the fund to
be unavailable for any other purpose.
Then, as far as possible. have the
sending patrons of each school look
after the matter of comfortable ac-
commodlation for their children.
For the present each school district
+. should make itself heard before the
County Commissioners to get the funds
sufficient to run the schools ten months
this year.
We should not do our schooling like
we work our roads permit the money
expended this year to be lost in the
next vacation, just as our annual sand
stone macadam is washed and blown
away.
If our farmers were to fatten their
hogs by the same routine we would
never have pork or bacon.
Let us do our schooling right, or
relegate it wholly to parents who can
do but little worse than the county
now proposes to do.

Alleganians III Baltimore.
The Baltimore Ne,os of Wednesday
says:
Mr. Daniel Amman, cashier of the Second
National Bank ofCumberland, was registered
at the Carrolton yesterday. Mr.. Amman is
one of the most popular men in the town
and county i'll which he lives and has
been repeatedly solicited to allow his name
to be used for the nomination for various
offices at the hands of the Democratic party
He has also refused to go before the voters as
candidate, and the only offices he has held
were those of County Treasurer by appoint
ment of the Board of County Commissioners
and Election Supervisor by appointment of
Governor Brown. He holds neither of those
offices at the present time. As a bank official
MIR. Amman stands in the front rank.

Too Late to ScOld,

The Cumberland Neos is scolding
Mr.. Pullman for his heartlessness in
allowing suffering among his en-
ployees.
In doing so the Neos is probably on
the right track.
For Mr.. Pullman is notably trustee
OF high tariff proceeds for the benefit
of labor and he has betrayed his trust.
He has not given to labor what was
ostentatiously designed for labor, but
kept it himself.
And so it has been in 90 cases of
100, one of the hundredth ones being
right here in the Georges Creek re-
gion, where our coal owners have
uniformly given 95 per cent of a pro-
lection which, too, was only incidental,
to the labor which developed coal.
When, however. the JOURNAL some
time ago alluded to the proposal in
Congress in 1890 to make the Mckinley
Act protection enjoyable only by those
trustees who honored the trust, the
Meas derided it as "unbusiness-like,
impracticable," etc.
But if that proposal had been adopt
ed and executed with tie same rigor
that the much more roundabout sugar
bounty machinery has been run, the
ostensible object of the act would have
been made real, and two bad results
would have been avoided
l, Mr.. Pullman would have no dis
tress on his hands, and
:, The News would not now have to
scold him for deafness to the voice of
destitution, and insenslbility to labor's
claims-not upon charity, but upon
justice.

fore, to separate the item of building from

latter, always amply provided for, should be

| have previously made in the Neaos
with regard to the apparent indiffer-
ence of the county press to the short
ening of the public school term, tor it
is now seen that every journal in the
populous and influential Georges Creek
region, with the Cumberland Independ-
ent to boot, has expressed itself in
strong terms against any abridgment
of the scholastic period. The utter,
ances of these newspapers are entitled
to great weight from the fact that they
represent constituency almost en-

How II Works.

Recent news from Washington comes
as follows:
The Senate Committee on Rules will not
sit during the recess of Congress and attempt to
revise the Senate rules Several times during
the closing days Of the present session, when
the Senate was without quorum, Mr..
Black burn, Chairman of the Committee on
Rules, tried to have adopted resolution
authorizing the committee to consider re-
vision of the rules during the recess, but it
has been steadily objected to by Senator
Blanchard. The motive of the Louisiana
Senator is not concealed. He says that he
does not want the rules revised so that debate
may be cut Off and vote forced upon the
bill repeating the sugar duty.
This is an instance showing what
comes with "cheap sugar"
While we were getting it at and 5
cents pound under the bounty sys-
TEN we also purchased two United
States Senators whose interest it now
is to precent any and all sugar legislation.
A few more years of such autocracy
and the country, bribed by cheap
sugar, will be bolnd hand and foot.
Then there will be nothing to prevent
the rapacious planters and trust
putting ''the prices of sugar up to all
that consumption can stand"

The Coming Fashions for Ladies'.
That is what is commonly conceded to be
the most difficult epoch of the year in the
realms of fashion, for. while all modes seem
to be in an undecided state, yet every body is
most anxious to learn what turn the new
fashions will take since all those interested
on this subject must be preparing for the
coming season-the busiest of the year. In
their eagerness to secure novel ideas many
number turn their eyes toward New York
while the majority are anxiously inquiring
from every possible quarter in order to obtain
the much desired information. Now it is
undoubtedly true that the surest, safest, most
convenient and practical way of attaining
this end is to become subscriber of sub
stantial fashion magazine whose informa-
ton is reliable and which Offers the greatest
variety of subjects. Such magaznes-or
rather magaznes-are the weliknown Nc
DoweI french fashion periodicals-the best
and most popular of the kind, both in the
old world and in this country. La Mode de
Paris and Paris .iibmn of Fashion, cost So, so

French Dressntaker is So per year, or 30 cents
a copy. La Mote, Il family journal, with

concede that it was a demand all manufac-

politicians there is no testimony what
ever to such self-abnegation.

A Difference.

Farmers in western and southern
Kansas are we'll nigh ruined by the
hot winds, and starvation threatens.
These are they whom bounty
would do no good, for a bounty goes
only "to him that hath"
Thus hath como to pass an instance
also of the Scriptural prophecy that
from him that hath not shall be taken
the little that he hath"
But no little, low, mean, cowa rdly
walls Of distress come from the heroic
farmers. Accustomed to isolation,
privation and slavish work, they speak
courageously of tempting fortune else
where.
How different the denizens of Pull
mantown, who, taught to believe that
protection is greater and better than
Providence, make an cutlery that is
heard round the world when their god
goes back on them
