The Baltimore Neacs has reduced its
price 20 one cent per copy--a very.
very small sum for so excellent a
paper. In a city of Baltimore's mag
nitude public demand for a cheap
paper may operate to its advantage.
In the case of the Neccs, the JOURNAL
hopes its compliance will SO result in
great degree.
On the other hand, the JOURNAL
fears the Cumberland Times erred in
responding to similar call. Where
circulation, even at its best estate, is
necessarily limited, the paper that
makes cheapness special claim upon
popular favor bids against itself. AS
a matter OF fact, there ought not to be
$3-daily nor $l-weekly in the
county! Meanwhile, it can be wished
that the Times has not only not erred,
but that the JOURNAL, for once, is
mistaken in its Judgment of the Times
step.

w HdI tulS
McKinley's advice if followed would give

"greenback' is as good as gold let the Treas
urer so hold it until gold is paid in for it,

Sounds heterodox-rather like there
was some wild and woolly feeling
sneaking around through some sort of
an occidental political disappointment.
The greenback should not be i'm
peached, even by implication. as long
as both government and the republican
party assume to be its guardians.
Give yourp party straight stuff, Forum.
Hereabout nothing but unquestioning
loyalty to party policy, no matter what
it is, is tolerable.
1t is the same in both parties.
Which is a collateral, though con-
elusive reason why the JOURNAL, down
on the faults of each, is alacays right.

That Dangerous DelusIOn.

Charles w. Donnelly, associate
editor of the Cumberland independent,
complimented the JOURNAL last week
by addressing the editor nearly three
columns of IAN open letter." In
opening he says:
Sometime ago told you l would write you
in answer to your question in the JOURNAL,
namely
How will free coinage law or any other
law lower the prices Of the goods l have to
buy and raise the prices of those l have to
sell?
The question as put is unanswerable and is
an idea advanced by yourself only and not
by any free coinage advocate: but the end to
be attaned-a better living and more money
for yourself and all others-I contend may be
had by the operations of law opening our
mlnts to the free coinage of both gold and
silver, at the ratio of Is parts of silver to l
part of gold.
1t is unnecessary to quote further,
for Mr.. Donnelly admits that "the
question as put is unanswerable."
1t is necessary, however, to insist
that the question las put" is fair
one.
For if free coinage or any other
scheme is to make each of us better
off it must
|, Lower the prices of the goods we
have to buy. and
9, Raise the prices of those we have
to sell.
At the very least it must do one of
these things.
Then suppose the buyer profits only
in the goods he buys, does it not fol-
' low he makes nothing as a seller9
Or, that if the seller profits only in
the goods he sells, does it not follow
that he makes nothing as a buyer?
What is the result, then, when the
skillful buyer and the adept salesman
come to deal with each other?
Literally, no t,a,le.'
And neither is better off than be-
fore.
Each may enjoy a plethora of money
with which to make eXchanges-still
the buyer who makes only as a buyer
can gain nothing from u seller who
makes only as a seller.
Literally, we repeat, these men can
not trade. A circulation of $4,000
could bring them no closer than a
circulation of 81, 900.
Inevitably, then, it comes to back
to this-that whatever it is that is to
make each and all of US better off, it
must enable each of us to do at least
one of two things
l, Buy cheaper, Or
2, Sell higher.
Will free coinage do this
There is nothing in all history or
philosophy to prove it-nothing any
where in lnfnity, except, perhaps, in
that clrcumlocutory fancy which pro-
vldes for more representatives than
constituents, indeed, unlimited dol
lars for measuring the value and con-
veylng exchanges of limited COM
modities.

An Editorial Trustee.

4hh
Probably the most remarkable if not
humiliating editorial confession ever
made in any paper appears in the last
issue of the Forum.
In his own words the editor
gave the task of an inevitable drubbng Of
him over to a 'tramp-printer' that the JOUR
NAL man might realize that many miners
pick is greater and sharper than some editors
pens.
That is an excuse that is an excuse.
If Fairchild had been able to admin
lister that inevitable drubbing,' why
abdicate and enthrone the tramp
printer -
If there was any inevitable" glory
to be won for the moment, why place
the laurel upon the brow of hirellng?
But, readers, John Farrell, the
''tramp-printer," is not the author of
that vile editorial. Unfortunate as he
is in the use he has evidently allowed
to be made Of himself against one who
never knew him to harm him, he is
too good and probably too smart to
PRINT such depraved gibberish. Even
if such rhetoric were constructed in
the interest of some decent purpose, it
would be a disgrace to both purpose
and letters.
But if the Forum had use for Mr..
Farrell's confessedly superior talents,
why has it not given HIM the Hines
supplement for text?
For if ever a papers management
needed eXtraneous aid the Forum did in
that emergency.
p. S.--If the Forum needs copy of
the supplement for Mr.. Farrell's use,
statement to that effect addressed to
these headquarters will be honored.
