The F'iremen's Daily.


The honeymoon edition of the Cum
berland Independent makes welcome
mention of the JOURNALS effort to
keep pace with events as they occurred
during the towns occupation by the
State Firemen. 1t says:
The daily issues of the Frostburg JOURNAL
during the tremens convention this week
were characteristic of the "great paper" and
its superior ability.
F. W. Rose, himself hustler,
notices in the Piedmont CIV. Va.)
Herald the venture as below:
The enterprise of our esteemed contem-
porary, the MINING JOURNAL, was shown
in three extra editions published during the
week.
Then the veteran Capt. T. F. Nc
Cardell, who makes his Cumberland
Neacs comment on almost everything
with great force and freedom, saw the
daily as follows:
The Frostburg JOURNAL is issuing very
pretty four column daily edition devoted to
the news of the tiremens parade and conven-
ton. The first issue is dated June II. and is
very original and sprightly edition, gotten
up in the neatest manner, and displaying in
every column the piquant originality and
brllliancy of the editor. Among the most
attractive features of the initial issue is the
"Welcome,' a poem written by Miss C. 3.
Trout, of Front Royal, Va. On the second
page will be found double column picture
of Roy L. McCardell, drawn by Gribayedotf,
one of New York S foremost artists.
The Ne,os' Piedmont correspondent,
another veteran captain, J. Forsyth
Harrison, was here and wrote to that
paper some interesting observations,
one of which is appended:
Your old friend (my own aso,) brother
Oder of the JOURNAL was IN his element and
with commendable enterprise got out two
daily editions Of his paper
1t will never do to omit anything E..
Il. Johnston, of the Cumberland
Courier, puts in print-so here goes:
Frostburg had done nobly in its entertain
to editor Oder of the JOURNAL.
Col. John w. Avirett, an old lover
of the JOURNAL, places the great paper
under obligations for the neat lines
which follow;
Brother Oder, of the Frostburg JOURNAL,
deserves the complimentary notices he is re-
ceiving from the press, in and out of the
State, upon his enterprise in getting out daily
editions of his paper during the State Fire
mems celebration last week. They were
complete records of each days events, related
IN that happy strain for which the JOURNAL
is noted. brief epitome of the news of the
outside world was alsoa commendabe feature,
which, together with spicy advertisements, a
neat and attractive makeup, more than
justified the claims of the "Great Paper" that
any time and all times
j. j. Robinson, after putting in
some good work on the daily, went
home and, without abiding to him
self once, put the accompanying
paragraph in his paper, the Lonacon-
ing Star. Such self-forgetfulness the
JOURNAL has never seen-no, not even
IN lael:
The Frostburg JOURNAL is receiving many
complimentary remarks from the press on
the enterprise of issuing three papers, extra
editions, during the two days of the fremen's
convention last week, and the Star joins in
commencing the efforts of the JOURNAL,

are in possession of the world and its

, upon such meager wages that they are
ever burdened with anxiety to make
ends meet. and even suffer from actual
want their one desire must be to obtain
deliverance from such pursuit of happl-
ness: Men have pretty generally come to

ious action in behalf of the only rational
and final remedy.
l wish that the rich. especially. might
read it, for believe that they. like other
classes, are not directly to blame for the
existing condition, and, like Others are
so largely the victims of old economic be-
liefs and forms that they have become
honestly rather than willfully blind to
the true way out.
The fact is, competition In trade and in
the means of livelihood belongs to the
pioneer stage of human progress. 1ndi-
yidualism along the lines of general in
dustrial production and distribution.
although absolutely necessary a means
of education, has sevred its chief and
legitimate end and must henceforth more
or less rapidly give place to mutualism
along the plane of material existence.
The absorbing tendency of the trust
proves this and this Is why it is as use
less to attempt to legislate against the
latter as it would be to legslate against
the broadening sweep of river to the
ocean. or against gravitation itself. The
mistake lies in the idea that the trust,
now operating for the benefit of llm-
tied number and favored few, can be cir
cum scribed and prevented from flowing
on. and finally broadening into the great
deep which represents the general public,
and which is constantly and irresistably
will be distributed and utilized in the
public interest.
Nothing but class laws such as now
protect and keep alive great corporations
can Ietard this result, and all these
must sooner or later be swept away
by the rising tide of enlightened public
sentiment. Commercial competition and
indivdualism were the mudsills which
had to be hewn into shape and laid out of
sight on the bedrock before the nobler.
ever visible and enduring structure that
individuaiizes along the moral and intel
lectual attitudes could be made possible.

'VERRA POOR CONCLUSIONS'
A gentleman in Scotland was taking
an old lady who was greatly devoted to
horses through his stables, which were
full of beautiful hunters.
After seeing them all and duly admiring
them, she said with broad Scottish ac-
cent: Vera fine horses. Mr.. Douglass,
vera fine horses; but. dearie me, what
vera poor conclusions"
The old lady thus quantity expressed
her disapproval of the fashion of docking
all the horses tails.

Truth Stranger than Fiction.


An accident recently occurred in Eng
land which was identical with Black
more's awful climax in "Christowell."
Service had just begun in st. Columb
Major Church, near Trure, Cornwall,
when a fash of dazzling blush light and
deafen1ng crash like the explosion of a
bomb filled the church and put the
congregation to fight. The lightning
had struck the belfry, and, going down
into the church, huge bail of fire ran
up the middle aisle. The windows were
blown to pieces, the inside walls rent,
and bell ringer was thrown over the
railing twenty i've feet into the church.

CONGRESS- IS TO BLAME.

The Atlanta Constitution, which never
lets a. day pass without a severe, and
oftenumes an unnecessary, attack upon
the president, says:
Zone Of MI Cleveland's chief Difficult
ties during this congress has been his
utter inability OF refusal to recognize the
fact that others beside himself have views
on public questions.
THE News does not agree with the
president in his financial views, and
approves the action of congress in not
enactnr his suggestions or recommen-
dations on this question into laws, but
we are not prepared to hold him wholly
responsible for the present very unsatis-
factory monetary condition of the coun-
try. Congress is more to blame for the
existing state of affairs than any other
agency.
1t may be, as the Constitution init
mates, that there are views stored away
somewhere in the craniums of the legis
lative branch of this administration, but
the public has no practical evidence of
it. Mr.. Cleveland is not the law making
power, and if congress really has any
well-detined views those views could
very easily be embodied in a bill and
passed regardless of the presidents OPP
position. Instead however of deviSing
means to relieve the country congress
contents itself with waging a relentless
war upon a man who has opinions and
the courage to give expression to them.
1t is time for congress to quit fighting
Cleveland and do something for the peo-
pie. If the bond issue is needless let them
repeal the law authorizing the president
and the secretary of the treasury to issue
bonds. If it is necessary 20 issue bonds
let them pass law authorizing the issue
of three per cent instead of five per cent
bonds. If congress would exercise some
common sense and common honesty,
with little uncommon or genuine patri-
otism, we would begin to see light in a
good many ways.
The president can't pass laws, and
congress can't shirk its responsibility
and hide its incompetency and general
eussedness behind him. Do something
or come home.

The yermin Were Differentiated.

From the Calh oun Courier.
Sometime ago Mr.. 7. A. Mathis of
this county, who is a hog and hominy
farmer, discovered that pen of his fat
ten ne hogs had le,ome infested with
lice, and hearing that kerosene was g )od
thing to remove them, took bucket
and mop and his son torch and went to
the pen which contained - or 20 pork
ers. About the time he got them well
saturated the torch was dropped and
the hogs became ignited. Mr. Mathis
finally made his escape and the squeal-
ing porcines broke down the fence and
soon there was streak of squealing fire
from the pen to a branch, a hundred
yards away. The vermin We're eXtermi-
mated and the main damage was the loss
of pig tails.

A SENSIBLE CONCLUSION.

The New York Sun makes a sensible
conclusion when 1t says; "Thls is the
third or fourth time within few years
that charity has been needed in Nebraska
or Kansas on account of the failure of
crops. We should suppose that those of
the farmers OF these states who are so
often reduced to straights would think
of looking for homes in some favorable
region. All the southern states are de-
sirous of obtaining industri rus immi .
grants, and they can furnish good land
for millions of them. Texas alone would
like to draw TO its lands all the farmers
who cannot get along in the bad parts of
She northwest. After the south gets
pretty we'll filled up, hundred or a
couple of hundred years hence, it will be
time enough to see what can be done for
those extensive tracts of our trans Mis- i.
sissippi country, in which the crops are
so often failure on account of long
droughts, destructive billiards, and pes.
tiferous insects"

From the ST. Louis Globe-Democrat'
II have eaten apples that rlpened more
than eighteen hundred years ago, bread
made from wheat grown before the chill
dren of Isreal passed through the Red
Sea, spread it with butter that was made
when Elizabeth was queen of England,
and washed down theFaqast with wine
that was sold when Co umbus was play
ing barefoot with the boys of Genoa,
vas the remarkable statement OF ANA
ziah Dukes, a New York broker and
guest of the Southern. 1.-The remarkable
spread WAS given by an antiquary named
Geobei, in the city of Brussels Ia 1871.
The apples were from an elTthen Jar
taken from the ruins of Pompell, that
buried city to whose people we owe our
knowledge of canning fruit The wheat
was taken from a chamber of one of the
pyramids; the butter from stone shelf
in an old we'll in Scotland, where tor
centuries it had lain in an earthen crock
in icy water, and the wine was recovered
from an old vault in the City of Corinth.
There were six guests at the table and
each had a mouthful of the bread and
teaspoonful of the wine, but was per
mitted to help himself literally to the
butter, there being several pounds of it.
The apple jar I'D about two thirds OF
gallon and the fruit was sweet and the
-four as fine as though put up yester-
day"

THE present congress has little more
than two weeks in which to wrangle and
do nothing. 1t has been in constant
session for nearly two years, and, if our
memory is not at fault, has DOT passed a
single measure for the good of the coun-
try. The only legislation that has been
done by it is the repeal of the federal
election lava law that the people
hardly knew was in existence. The
