New Method of Proof.

AS an evidence that Wrong and
Injustice" are wicked under any and
all circumstances" the Forum says it
has "the largest paid-up subscription
list OF any weekly newspaper in Allie
gany county," etc.
1t appears to take lot of work,
however, to keep the .'list" on the
witness-stand as proof that "Wrong
and Injustice" are naughty.
Still, "paid-up'' is an excellent con-
ditlon.

The Bicycle club has given 500 {:
the Ancient Order ofiHibernians $50 !;
a church $40, and president C. K.
Lord, representing the Consolidation

Which is most creditable to the
givers.
The example of the Bicycle club,
the Hibernians and the church, is one
that ought to be followed by every
club, lodge and chmrh in town, and
thus find out for themselves that what
they so frequently preach is true:

The Vanity of Bad Language.

The Vanity of Bad Language.
The cause of labor, even professional
labor, is worthy of respectable
vocabulary.
But in almost every instance its self
appointed mouth-pieces use the worst
language they can Gull from the die
tionaries. Indeed, all conscience
seems to be thrown away in applying
opprobrious epithets to those who
cannot indulge even their way of
thinking.
But good causes are not thus helped.
They cannot be.
For when men come to judge OF
merits they look at methods rather
than apparent motives.
The tree is known by the fruit it bears.
Thomas jefferson portrayed the
crimes of Great Britain in the stateliest
diction of his stately time, and George
Washington expressed profound re-
spect for wel-bred Toiyism.
1t is to be said also of James Otis
and Samuel Adams that in their
nervous orations they never appealed
to either the ignorance or preJudlces
of the colonists. Their words, chosen
from liberty own heaven born lexicon,
went, thrilling with eloquence, directly
to the intelligence and conscience of
the people.
But where is the jefferson, the Otis,
the Washington, or the Adams in the
ranks of labor to. day If it is IA cause
with the grievances alleged, why are
not its leaders and heroes commensu-
rate in character and policy with those
of other good causes And when men
of some mark have arisen, like Powder
ly, why have they been driven into
exile? And why hangs Gompers'
tenure of leadership by thread?
The answer is-"their conservatism
is disloyalty to labor
Impossible. AT least, we repeat, it
W uo hONCl IL uo III ohy olhSl SooNt
cause. The conservatism which is
"sure it is right before it goes ahead,'
is the salvation of good causes. 1t is
the embodiment of the "charity" which
"suffereth long, and is kind envieth
not ; vaunteth not itself : is not putfed
up: doth not behave itself unseemly ::
seeketh not her own is not easily pro-
voked thinketh no evil = in short, it
is that element in wise speech and ac-
ton which "never faileth."
Until labor. real or simulated,
changes the tactics which make its
speech proscriptive and its liberty in
tolerant of others liberty, it can never
gain the leadership which WINS.
Until it reads the Golden Rule into its
policy, or its policy into the Golden
Rule, it can never succeed in reach
ing the ends il deserves. much less
those it seeks.

A Senatorial Error

Senator Wellington talks lugubrious-
ly of prospects in Cuba. He does not
believe "the experiment of Cuban in
dependence will be successful
Mr.. Wellington, however, had lately
left the Forum office, Frostburg, Md.
wherein he impressed the paid-up cir
culatlon department as seeming to be
out of humor about something"
The Senator made a big mistake in
permitting himself to be interviewed
on the subject of experimental indie
pendence" Immediately after a survey
of conditions in the Forum office.
Indeed, it was two-fold mistake
|, Because all the insurgents, from
Cook to Fairchild, have been ex-
patriated, and
3, The Cubans will soon see the
buttered side of their bread.
There is, therefore, no parallelism
whatever between the acute but cheer
less longings for independence in the
Forum Office and the dreams of popular
sovereignty which gladden. Cuban
households.
There is hope for the latter because
they are just entering the novitiate
stage of self government, while the
former, installing its relation to the
universe, seems to think its place,
whatever that is in the mutations of
faction, is permanent"

A Good Thing.

Hundreds of inventors have sought
for a heating device by which an as
suredly healthful atmospheric circula-
ton can be secured with modicum of
warmth. Much money has been ex-
pended in this direction, toto re-
turn in disappointment to both in
ventor and investor.
AT last, however, it is believed the
problem of conveying BEAUTIFULLY
aerated heat to dwelling chambers,
school rooms, ETC., has been solved by
Alfred h. Blasse. of this place, who
has invented and patented device
which is at once a powerful heater and
fresh air disseminator. This device
draws and disposes of the air without
bringing it in contact with the fire box
or involving any superfuous heat
from the furnace. At a proper point
the air is intercepted by and mingled
with hot water. thus supplied with the
moisture which, in small amount, all
household ventilation needs.
The device is model of ingenious
construction and looks much like it
will accomplish all Mr.. Blasse claims.
He says sit is a complete success, and
when adopted the owner will find it
the most economical as we'll as the
healthiest of all heaters"
Mr.. Blasse has model of a dry
water closet, also a good thing, for
which patent is pending.
