He Was Right.

The question as to whether President
Cleveland was right or wrong will not be
settled until our esteemed contemporary, the
Frostburg JOURNAL, speaks upon the subject
Cumberland Times.
He was right-everlastingly right.
Even ex-President Harrison says he
was right.
In fact, nobody says lie was wrong
except labor organizations who thus
seem to contend that the lawlessness
which they disclaim and the destruc-
ton which they pretend to condemn
ought nevertheless to go on without
being arrested, or even interfered
with.
Another complaint against the use
of the troops in Chicago to keep order
and save the property would be very
funny if it did not involve a serious
matter. 1t consists of a wall over the
consequent high taxes the cost of
troops entails upon property.
Which means that it is cheaper to
burn the prop erty than to save it from
burning-cheaper to damn the commu-
nifty with the disgrace of wholesale in
cendiarism than to redeem it.

\ Quarrel Over Pocahontas Coal

~ Vuaffcl over IOcanOntaS Coal.
There is row between the Norfolk
and Western railroad company and
the POcahontas coal operators over the
price OF coal for company use. In
1856 it was agreed that the railroad
should pay the operators s. cents per
ton forcoal at the tipples. This agree
ment was subsequently modified so as
to permit the railroad company to buv
coal for use in its locomotives at 70
cents per gross ton. In April last the
Norfolk and Western officials, through
the Pocahontas coal company, asked
for reduction in the contract price
to ~ cents per ton because of the low
market price of soft coal and the
general reduction in wages. 1t was
further requested by the railroad that
ii the operators should reduce the
wages OF their employees that the price
be reduced to 60 cents. The operators
declined to accept the 20 cents prop
osltlon, and declared that they would
uot reduce wages. President Kim
ball Of the Norfolk and Western, is said
to have then written letter to the
operators in which he said. "My
Judgment as to a temporary settle
ment for coal is 70 cents per gross ton,
but | am willing to yield point and
adopt 10 cents per gross ton pending
prompt arbitration"
This plan of settling the difficulty
was adopted, but subsequently aban-
doned, because it could not be prompt.
Meanwhile the operators will con
tlnue to demand the IS cents per ton
provided for in the contract. Should
the company refuse to pay this sum it
is not unlikely that the matter will be
taken into court. The miners in the
Pocahontas region refused to join in
the recent strike for the reason that
their wages had suffered no recent re-
ductlon. Their remaining at work en-
abled the operators to keep the market
supplied with Pocahontas coal.

4 Mistaken Notion.

The Duke of Cambridge recently
delivered an address at a 'School
commencement" Kingston, England,
which would have afforded much com
fort here to educational extremists,
Indeed, in the language of the report
he actually
deprecated the tendency of the present
age to aim at over eduCaton.
If the design of the Maryland school
system were properly construed and
carried out, there would hardly be a
contention anywhere over teachers or
tuition.
That design contemplates the en-
dowment of all the children of the
State with a common English educa
tion-no more, no less.
But in the race for ''handling the
money" providing women with po-
sltions, securing 1.-THE prettiest school
house in the county," establishing
"high schools" working for gaudy
commandments" and discouraging
"disclpline," the true primary welfare
of the States children is lost, both to
official and parental view.
In this connection, the question has
been asked the JOURNAL
Do you favor making high school of No. {?
In general, the JOURNAL does not
countenance such perversions Of pro-
motion anywhere.
But since they are indulgcd-since
Cumberland is so favored, for instance,
Frostburg has equal claim to its share
of the 'stolen sweetness"
And so has all places.
But in building this temple of educa
ton the inevitable and constant
tendency will be to neglect the founda-
ton and bestow all our work on the
roof.

1t was probably Il public school
commencement hero who figured in
the junior portion of the following
dialogue:
Boy-Its awful lucky we have our ex-
aminatons for promotion now, instead of in
the fall when school opens.
Fdther-Why?
Boy-Cause when school begins in the fall
we none of us ever know anything.
This is the sort of achievement to-
ward which some Homecoming circles
seem to be aspiring.
But the proper time to review for
promotion is at the beginning. not the
end Of courses of study.
Hence, if the current Commence
ment' idea should be the correct one,
the applicant for admission to school
should enrol himself on the last, in
stead of the first day, and begin at
tending school on the very day the
school lays off for vacation.

The Worlds Fairest Sea

The Worlds Fairest Seaside Resorts
Thursday, August I'd, the third of the
series Of popular excursions to the sea-
shore is announced by the B. and o. r.
from Pittsburg, Wheeling, Parkers-
burg, and all intermediate stations to
Washington Junction, Md, to Atlantic
City, Cape May and Sea Isle City, are
beyond a doubt the three greatest sea-
shore resorts on the Atlantic coast.
The season is now at its height and the
bathing superb, and week spent at
either one of these resorts would amply
repay the merchant, banker, clerk
farmer, artisan, and, in short. anyone
who needs rest and recuperation.
For the excursion on August I'd,
the same low rates and unexcelled
train service, which have made these
Jaunts, to the sea So popular, will be
in effect.
Tickets will be valid for return
journey for twelve days from day of
sale, and will be good on all regular
tlalns. On return journey they will
be good to stop off at Washington,
thus atfordlng an opportunity to see
Congress in session, to visit the numer-
Gus public buildings, which are open
to visitors free of charge, or to take a
trip down the Potomac to Mt. Vernon,
the tomb of the immortal Washington.
as we'll as to other places of interest
in and near Washington.

Some Legal Advice.

The Homecoming correspondent of
the Cumberland Ne,es is apprehensive.
He says
We look forward to the fifth day of August
with much concern. On that day Messrs.
White and IIaleck must commence the con-
struction Of the water works or the franchise
given them is void Git hustle on, gentle
men, or you will miss rare opportunity.
A very fine legal point arises here
|. Whether Messrs. White and
Halleck can be compelled by their
contract to violate law, Or
,, Whether they can be deprived of
the benefits Of their contract by fail
ing to break law.
The JOURNALS advice to Messrs
White and Halleck is to begin work
no later than 5S minutes past | | p. m =,
August i, and work about 80 seconds.

Old Coaching bavs.

In 1925 driving had become a fine
art; horses were good; the coach and
its appointments perfect, and both
coachmen and guards were superior to
the men Of ten OF twelve wears pre-
vious. Several broken down gentle
men took to the profession, including
the famous Mr.. Stevenson, Mr..
Gwynne, and the Baronet," Sir St.
Vincent Cotton. Of the less aristo-
cratic coachmen, the most celebrated
were Tim Carter, who died so lately as
last March, and Robert Snow. 1t
should be remembered that the old
school drove heavily-laden coaches
over Indifferent roads. The result
was that horses seldom lasted more
than two or three years, and much
cruelty vas undoubtedly practiced. Il
find the animals" runs a possibly
mythical utterance, you find whip
cord" Some of the stories OF the
NOrthing, Portsmouth, Bristol. and so
on, are curious particularly of that
started by Squire" Walker in an I'M
successful attempt to ruin a proprietor
against whom he had a grudge. One
Of his teams contained three piebalds,
and a white gray painted to match the
others. There is pathos, too, about
the end of Uphold, an excellent whip,
who, after a series Of mishaps, finally
met his death through pulling the
wrong rein.-The Athenaaum.
