quaintance with Allegany celebrities
that is intimate and accurate. In
proof whereof witness the appended
paragraph:
The Hon. David E. Dick is holding the
field as a candidate for the Senate III ALE
gany against all corners of the republican

bigger voice

SEMI-LOCAL NEWS.
Concerning In.juncttons.


Some West Virginia lawyer told j.
w. Rea, labor agonizer, last Satur-
day
that the striking miners can secure an in
junction against the operators prohibiting
them from employing new men in the places
of the strikers.
1t is stated that many of the miners
believed and were cheered by this ex-
traordinary intelligence.
But it is sufficient to state that if a
law existed authorizing such an exer-
ton of force there would not be a coal
property, developed or undeveloped,
worth the name within the range of it's
jurisdiction.
In the nature of things an employee
cannot make the fact OF his employ
ment mortgage upon the place he
fills--to be foreclosed only upon his
own option. He cannot take work at
given price as a lien on the place he
fills and then use it as a club to maui
higher price out of his employer.
His liberty in the case is limited to
the aternative-work or not work.
The JOURNAL is free to say that it
could wish the injunction business
could be altogether avoided, especially
those proceedings which oppose the
use of the highways for professional
labor demonstrations.
But judge Golf showed very clearly
in his opinion of last Monday that
such use of the highways is a per-
version of the law. In effect. the oc-
cupation of the roads by an idle fac
ton of workingmen as means to in
duce another faction to quit work, is
a usurpation of public property be-
cause the latter class of worklngmen
has equal right to traverse them un-
molested on their way to work
Hence, if only one of the hundreds
of Marion county miners wanted to
work, his right to do so cannot be
legally denied nor his effort to reach it
lawfully impeded.
The walking delegate is still an un-
safe guide, probably more unsafe than
ever before-this in legal, moral and
! religious sense.

Same Logic.

The Cumberland Times congresses
the statement of a colossal fallacy into
a few brief paragraphs:
The new tariff law is one of those school
lessons that teaches the people that the more
anything costs the more OF it they can buy.
That if the price of sugar goes up the
cheaper it will be.
That % cents additional on the price of
shoes will make them cost less than before.
Whenever the price of an article is increased
it will cost less.
Make things higher and the people will
buy more
By exactly the same system of logic
Mr.. Bryan teaches his disciples that
1.-The free coinage of silver will raise
prices"
Meanwhile, is it not significant that
both the high tariff and free coinage
philosophers stick to the term, "price,"
or "prices p
Does anybody, for instance, ever
hear the one say "a high tariff will
raise" the acoHh Of commodities
Does anybody ever hear the other
say 'the free coinage of silver will
raise" the ac0,th of commodities
No; because worth is interchangeable
by no other than the laws of nature.
The wonder is that these philosoph-
ers know enough to discriminate so
nicely against proper terms.

1fyou ask us how the gold standard affects
the farmer we tell you that the gold standard
lowers the price of the products he sells with
out lowering his taxes or his debts-Hou. w.
j. Bryan.
1t will be seen that Mr.. Bryan is
smart enough to omit the fact that if
'the gold standard lowers the prices
of the products he sells" it also lowers
the products he has to buy.
1t is very convenient for Mr.. Bryan
to speak of taxes" which, in current
legislation and administration, are
hard to reduce.
And of "debts," which can rarely be
reduced without paying them.
But as seller and buyer for cash
the farmer has nothing to lose from
the gold standard. Indeed, under that
system he can as easily pay his taxes
and more honestly pay his debts than
under one which of itself cannot abate
the one nor legitmately discharge the
other.

Counterfeit Village Ticket.


Recently there appeared in Pitts
burg, man giving the name of r. c..
Lucas, accompanied by a woman call
ing herself May Anderson, who at
tempted to dispose of counterfeit B.
and o. Mileage Books. They did sue
coed in selling some to the brokers,
and then departed for Cleveland, where
they registered at the American House
as r. G. Lucas and wife.
In their efforts to dispose of the
spurious tickets, they aroused sus-
picions, which were at once COM
municated to the B. and o. Agent, who
Immediately took such action as led to
the arrest and conviction of the
woman, who was found guilty of sell.
ing counterfeit tickets. and sentenced
to six months in the work house, and
to pay a fine of $500 and costs.
The man succeeded in making his
escape, but as he is known to the rail
road people and the police, his arrest
is only a question of time.
The b. and o. officials have taken
every precautiOn to prevent the sale or
use of these spurious tickets, and have
expressed determination to prosecute
to the fullest extent of the law anyone
caught attempting to use counterfeit
mileage or other bogus forms of trans
portation. and will be especially vigor-
Gus against brokers found offering
them for sale.

An Unhappy Condition.

Punched by the exposure of its own (the
JoURNALs) righteousness, it first tried to be
impudentif it couldn'tappear smart and now
seeks consolation in the thought that it
has made someone Northumberland h-
dependent.
The JOURNAL could see that the
Independent had assumed the role of
scold, but until E. R. Johnston, that
unrutfled philosopher and equanimous
linguist, stated that the independent was
mad" it did not apprehend the full
import of that papers infamed mental
condition.
Far be it from the JOURNALS desire,
therefore, to "seek consolation in the
thought" that it can make "mad" any
body who is able to pinch" it.
And farther away may the suspicion
fly that it could fail in trying to be
impudent" and yet succeed in kindling
the baleful fires of evaporation.
But so long as the great, the vital
question of the day and issue remains
unanswered, the JOURNALS contem-
poraries must bear with this insistence
answer if you can. If you cannot,
say nothing, borrow "a saw and tackle
a wood-pile.
For the paper that permits the i'm
preston to go abroad that it ever gets
''mad," is no longer safe adviser,
much less wise leader of popular
thought.
And yet, o yet-with the truth
against it, how can silverbug paper
avoid the hour and article of anger7
For the Scripture has declared
But unto them that are vainly contentious
and do not obey the TRUTH but obey un,
righteousness, indignation and wrath.

The Truth.

The Frostburg Ne,os says the Fair
child
lecture was in response to kindly hos.
pitality of those who have the milk of human
kindness in their VEINS
Certainly. Good people worked up
a good audience for good man. But
that sort of kindly hospitality" should
be no reason why the shortcomings of
Mr.. F.'s effort should be ignored, GER
tainly none why the Neocs should
slobber over both lecture and lecturer.
On the contrary, there is every in
centive to tell the truth of 1.-THE
truth, as some West Virginia lawyers
say, without skeer, favor or afflic-
ton"
That the JOURNAL did this has been
kindly attested by more people than
those whose blood is milk wot of.
