Mr.. Mayor, discussion of the COW
question is very much in order. So
Mr.. Purnell says, as his enclosures
were invaded few nights ago. He
expects to ask Council to either find an
ordinance or make one.
Some weeks ago somebody dumped
dead COW near the path from Frost
burg to Midlothian, much to the an
noyance of large number Of town
miners who go to and come from their
work ria that route. The scavenger
was particular enough, too, to drop
the carcass on the northwest side. 1t

that all carrion is buried.

the JOURNAL know that the millennium is not
to come in order to perfect things earthly, but
that perfect things earthly are to bring the
millennium ?-Piedmont CIV. Va.) Herald.
No; the JOURNALS reading incines
it to expect that prophecy will be
fulfilled.
For if "perfect things earthly" are
to bring "the lion and the lamb to-
gether, then prophecy is vain.
Moreover, if the Herald be correct
Christ's second coming will be con-
tingent upon earthly readiness by
earthly means, which Is wholly un-
scriptural.
Like the advent of Christ, the mil
lenlum will come Sin the fulness of
time" and in consonance with the UNI
imaginable scheme conceived in the
councils of eternity, limited at by the
prophets and published only in the lorg
separated events of terrestrial and
ornamental history.

One thing seems sure--either the
Constitution survives common sense,
or the highest court is still cropping in
the dark ages for tax distinctions.
If there Is an income that is not
ultimately derived from land, or if
there is tax that does not eventually
fall on land, it is yet to be discovered.
All taxes are inexorably and ever
lastingly borne by land, and the bust
ness of the courts seems to be to tax it
twice and thrice by fine haired hocus
pocus and thus afford expensive living
to their brethren in the lower walks of
so-called law.

asked that Frostburg might be en-

getting ahead of Cumberland, as afore-
time Samson overcame the lion.
The Homecoming Savings Bank is
evidently a stalwart institution. Its
$4,000 of capital is worth $50 900.
The question now uppermost in
Cumberland is which is 10 survive

Alexander Lyons, of Barton, charg-

The next question is-will Cumber-

he wait for Mayor Humbird to do the

be too late, therefore, to ''recall'' that

vocabulary.
By next week, it is hoped. the Cum

Some BIindfold Observations.


The JOURNAL never complains of the
anonymous appearances Of most of its
critics.
Take Censor" for instance, whom
nobody knows but the editor of the
Homecoming Reoieao. 1t NAV be his
pseudonym is his strongest feature, or,
as Titus A. Brick has 1.-THE is more
able bodied in his incog. than heftier
in his outcog."
With this impression of Censor"
the JOURNAL is 10th to rob him of the
only advantage that probably secures
him hearing.
Moreover, the JOURNAL sees nothing
new in his two letters last written that
has not been disposed of, save one
item.
The JOURNAL has already explained
why it is futile to preach the gospel to
sinners when they are insane. What
bothers it now is-how is Censor" if
intimations concerning him be correct,
going to deport himself when he gets
on the ticket for the House of Dele
gates with our heroic David W. Sloan
for States Attorney
1t will be pity if, after all the dis
turbance of his bowels of compassion
all his fearful rodomontade of sym
pathy for the miners, that he shoald
have 20 contract nauseous dlstaSte
for law-making on account Of associa
ton with an officer who heroically pro
tected blacklegs in their Unborn, in
alienable and indestructlble right to
work.
The conclusion of this matter is
the JOURNAL suspects that Censor is
fooling the miners by appealing to
their supposed prejudices against their
employers, and to make his scheme of
gullibility work with dead sure effect,
he has to drag in the JOURNAL and
make the great paper appear as an
accomplice of all the world, except
himself, in their imaginary ruin.
This two fold scheme may carry Cen
sor' to any point his ticket calls for,
but under our Australian system of
political travelling, he may never enjoy
the opportunity of declining tender
of Mr.. Mayors affableness and gentle
manly department. in the shape of a
pass during the legislative term.
But in either tragic event the JOUR
NAL hopes for the best.
Meanwhile, it will "try to endeavor
to make an effort to avoid reference to
Censor again.
This, for the reason that the great
paper is not printed, published and
circulated to either please or displease
him.

Stable Burned.

Shortly after 3 o'clock Sunday
morning policeman Gunter, travelling
Orman street, observed fire in the
southeast part of town. Fastening to
the town hall, he rang the tire-bell and
got out the hose reel. The fremen were
soon on hand in force and hurried to
the scene. 1t was long run, and when
they reached the fire that element had
about done its worst in destroying a
stable and horse belonging to E. H. B.
Pritchard, on Bowery. How the fire
started is unknown, but the most
probable theory is-that it caught ae
cidentally from some smoker who,
having ridden Mr.. Pritchard's horse,
was putting him away. The horse had
been ridden before, which gives strong
color to the supposition cited. The
loss, several hundred dollars, is a Sc
we're one for Mr.. Pritchard.

Qualifications.

Censor" should attune his ear to
reiteration, for this is 'the music of
the Spheres
His heart is past approaching the
harmony of fluent sounds, doubtless !;
so also his head.
But his soul, as we'll as his ear,
should be gladly open to every sweet
note, for "the man who hath no music
therein, saith translated Shakespeare,

walking delegate.

walls. The paper represents the

the Worlds Fair. The job reflects
great credit also on Messrs. J. H.

selection of wallpaper, as testified by
the variety of pretty specimens he has

Disappointment.

The income tax law was a most obnoxious
measure before the Supreme Court drove an
OK cart through Northumberland Necs.
Soon as the JOURNAL heard of the
decision it knew the Neaos, like the
Crested Jayhawk of the Sierras, would
"breathe with more lightness and
freedom"
But it was not prepared to see the
grave and venerable jurists likened to
a drove of reverend OK. punchers.

Pax NODIS Est.

laA NODlS fISt.
The usually accurate and really
witty Baltimore Meas states it this way ::
The State firemen meet in convention this
year at Frostburg. and the jealousy between
that town and Cumberland has broken out
atresh. Frostburg accuses Cumberland of
trying to get up an attraction to draw the
firemen to that city and show them what a
mistake they made in not holding the con-
vention there On the other hand, Cumber-
land claims that it has been ignored by
Frostburg in making arrangements to en-
terrain the tiremen, and to glorify Allegany
county. The strained relations between the
martial McCardell and the deep-thinking
Oder may again necessitate the ordering out
of the Maryland National Guard in the in
terest Of peace on Wills Mountain.
There will be no war.
''The footsteps of them that bring
glad tidings-that publisheth peace"
are continually abroad on the radiant
heights of these glorious mountains.
la the valley below the landscape,
like the gardens of Vancluse which
nourished a Petrarch's love, is bathed
in the lambert luminosity of McCar-
dell's glittering pen until Cumberland
begins to reflect the lucid light of a
suntlower sunrise.
The happy scene simply pulverizes
the JOURNALS discursive pencil and
paralyzes its intellectual paint brush.
How?
When the JOURNAL wrote the fol-
lowing paragraphs it did not expect to
be taken so literally by Single Tax
writers in nearly all parts of the
country:
The scheme will never be feasible until all
the people of the whole United States are
ready to test it altogether with at least ten
years trial.
Or, at least, all the people of some leading
State.
1t was not designed to say that "all
the people" should be merely 'ready
to test it, so much as to propose that
in the regular majority way "all the
people," whether of State, or States,
should be prepared to vote for and
submit to the Inauguration of the
system.
AS some Of the writers last week ad-
mitted, the scheme is now uncon-
stitutional. Hence, the Constitution
must be changed to suit, and only the
people can effect that.
SO that readiness to test" implies
a readiness to vote for changing
the Constitution.
The JOURNAL asks leave, therefore,
to make the criticised passage read
The scheme will never be feasible until the
constitutional majority of the people of a
State, or United States are ready to vote to
amend the Constitution so as to impose taxes
only on land values.
Now, then, how can the people be
gotten ready to vote to change the
Constitution by tests which the Con-
stitution forbids ?
The true answer to this question will
show that great deal of effort was ex-
erted last week to floor man of straw
which the intolerant Single Takers
had erected in the JOURNAL office.
