Call for Proofs.

FRosTBURG, MD., July 81, 1896.
To the MINING JOURNAL.
The other day in Cumbe. land en-
joyed the pleasure of short and
friendly conversation with Rabbi
Stern, which, as might be expected,
turned upon the debate in the JOUR
NAL on "Bible Reading in the Public
Schools"
Having no time for heightened
talk, and holding different opinions
on that subject, we agreed to have a
little friendly debate in the JOURNAL,
if you will have the kindness to allow
us space in your valuable paper.
You may rest assured that our dis
cussion will be conducted in the most
friendly spirit.
Therefore, to open the debate, one
of Mr.. Stern's objections to haylng the
Bible read in the public schools is
that the Bible is sectarian book.
By the common rules of logic the
onns probandi lies on the side making
the assertion therefore, cali on my
friend for the proofs that the Bible is
a sect0rian book. and to show to what
sect or scots it belongs, properly
speaking. Yours very truly,
HENRY THOMAS,
Baptist Minister.

Is it a Sectarian Book &?

The point raised by Rev. Henry
Thomas against Rabbi j. L. Stern's
declaration that "the Bible is a sec
tartan book" is one which, the JOUR
NAL predicts, can never be elucidated
by either to the satisfaction of the
other.
The culture and lifelong environ
ment of each has been so distinctly
different that it would be almost as
impossible for the Rabbi to agree
with Mr.. Thomas on that topic as for
Mr.. Thomas to hold in common with u
muezzin the same view of the Koran.
From the christian standpoint the
Bible is naturally not sectarian
book; from the Hebrew it naturally is.
"Orthodoxy, my Lord" said Bishop
Warburton, in whisper orthodoxy
is my doxy. Heterodoxy is the other
mans loxy."
How, then, these gentlemen are ever
to come together without complete
abandonment by one or the other of
"the faith in which he was born and
reared" the JOURNAL cannot imagine.
In view. therefore, of the almost
certain fruitlessness of the debate the
JOURNAL, to secure thorough reading
for both gentlemen, prescribes short,
meaty letters. !.

Vain Reasoning.

The various opinions of amateur
economists now appearing in the daily
papers make an exhaustive reader
awfully tired.
Here and there one talks of cover
production )" another of "infation y
still another of purchasing power"
and so on.
GAIL is vanity"
AS much so as if the Chicago con-
vention, instead of declaring for a
futile scheme to multiply by two the
volume of money, had decreed that
hereafter people shall wear two
Sweaters" two chilled" shirts, two
collars, two neckties, etc., and eat
twice as much at each meal as now.
In other words, if the Chicago, con-
vention had decreed, for instance, 100
per cent. more human appetite, "prices
would be raised" thereby just as effect
ually as by declaring for free coinage.
To multiply money by two and leave
appetite at its present ratio of one of
demand to two of supply does not even
skim the surface of the problem.

Surgeon Appointed.


The Cumberland Neaos makes the
following mention of a recent appoint
ment to an important position:
DR.. B. Curtis Miller, of Knoxville, Tenn,
who has earned a reputation as specialist in
the diseases of women, has been appointed by
the board of managers as surgeon for the
Western Maryland Hospital, this city. A
portion of the hospital has just been set apart
for the treatment of the diseases of women
and abdominal surgery, and DR.. Miller will
give this department his special attention.
DR.. Millers success in his speciality dis
eases of women, has been remarkable. He
has been pupil of some of the most eminent
specialists Of both Europe and America and
his work has received most fattering COM
mendation both at home and abroad.

ROSh.

A "Workingman" asked the Cumber
land Times six questions the other day.
Not one was correctly answered.
The JOURNAL has time and space
for but one:
Question-Would workingman be any
better off at the end of a year if he receives
S25 week salary and is compelled to spend
$50 of it for living expenses, than if he only
receives SIS week and is compelled to spend
but $12 of it for the same articles.
Answer-We would rather have IS than So.
1t is our deliberate judgment that IS is better
than 50.
In the parlauce of the farm that
means that the Times would rather
have five nubbins than three ears of
corn.

Nothing,

The JOURNAL elsewhere refers to
Capt. R. A. French's testimony to the
value accorded United States currency
ythe free-silver Mexican government.
But this was known before-through
official as we'll as unofficial sources,
and is mentioned here again to show
that if the one dollars worth of silver
dug by the miner is reduced by free
coinage to so cents worth, what is
there in free coinage for the silver
miners to shout overG
If, then, in the scheme of free coin
age there be nothing for the silver
miners, the prime favorites of all the
baby pets of free coinage, how are the
farmers and the wage. workers-the
men who are to wax fat from the
crumbs that fall from the free coinage
table-how are they to fare?
Changing the figure slightly, if
there be no fare for the guests invited
to the first table, what can there be
for those who are called to the second ?

ham is charming heroine, and it is long

much adventure befalls a woman, and all
without an abuse of sensational privileges

a stepfather who has robbed her of her
property when she was child; stepsister
who rs jealous of her and tries to drown her
she is hidden in cave; she escapes; she is
abducted by robber chief during train
robbery; he promises to reform if she will
marry him he dies and she escapes; goes to
Washington and engages as companion to
mysterious lady about to travel abroad and
this is but the beginning of series of
romantic adventures. Meanwhile her step
sister keeps on scheming and passing
through all sorts of experiences, only to be
tragically baked in the end. The story is
not what may justly be called sensational. as
the authors quality of skill saves it from
that, and, once started on the train of events,
one feels genuine curiosity as to how the
author will bring it out. 1t is very readable
