If Georges Creek people are wide
awake they can see that there are at
least three reasons why the Cumber-
land destructionists are opposed to
'arbitration -
|, 1t may shut them out of the grand
jury room three times year, world
without end.

what they ought to do-permit the city
to do what the self respecting towns
of Homecoming and Frostburg have al
ready done -,tind and buy water sup
plies that are pure and can be kept
pure without present or prospective
ruin to other communities.

the Georges Creek white man of the
burden Of paying very nearly all the
State expenses.
These reasons are not embodied in
those given.

Wide and Deem.

Writing to the Cumberland Times, a
correspondent says:
To Georges Creek your city owes more than
TO any other section the prominence it has in
current State politics. No Cumberland man
Is III otlice-frOm Governor down to Con-
gressman-who did not carry Georges Greek
That is true.
And it might have been added that
no Cumberland man, now in political
office, high or low, could be where he
is but for the unselfsh and loyal de-
votion of the majority of the people
here to the party upon whose name he
has climbed to official emlnence.
Is it any wonder, then, that return
so ungrateful and ungracious as de-
Structive prosecution of their only
manufacturing industry of any con-
siderable dimensions should break
over the line of tame, servile submis-
sion, into outspoken, indignant re-
sentment-not against the jury nor
count, but against those who forced the
business on jury and court
The JOURNAL is satisfied that it will
take a good while for Cumberland to
get this thing Strengthened out "all
lovely" again. The wound is wide
and deep.

A Nice Question.

A New York ex,judge testified be-
fore the Mazet committee that his
nomination for a judgeship, equal to
election, cost him $4,000, cash.
In effect, he purchased a seat upon
the bench.
If the Boston newspaper man who
suffered fine of $500 had been held
up for contempt by the New York
judge instead, what would be the moral
value to the latter ofsuch proceed ing?
If justice is to be personitied in the
integrity of her ministers, there should
be no spots on their titles nor patches
on their esmine.

There is new boom in the tomb
stone business since actresses have
ceased to lose their diamonds and re-
ceive deadly snakes by mail in order
to get their names in the newspapers.
Emma Calve has introduced the tomb
stone business into the department of
theatrical and operate publicity.
The JOURNAL felt sure that, sooner or
later, there could be some offset to the
newspaper branch-out of the tomb

No Doubt of 1t.

a despotism is not relieved Of its name be-
cause of It's benevolence. A government
wherein authority rests upon force and where
the people have no voice in making and
executing the laws under which they live is
despotic in ITS form.-Iion. IIRlian,J. Bryan.
Whether that be true or not, Mr..
Bryan, you are getting, unconsciously
perhaps, some back-handed aid.
Every utterance, legal, judicial, or
official, which betrays forgetfulness of
the terms of the first and ninth amend
ments to the Constitution of the coun-
try, deplorable as it is, is an impulse
given to anti-iniunctiOn feeling.

Interpretation.

The people of Georges Creek should
not be misled by confusions of terms.
Cumberland deprecates bad feel
ing between sections of the county,
That is not the ''true inwardnessn
Of the business.
What Cumberland really wants and,
according to her notion, must haye, is
peace-not that which "passeth under
standing" but the kind old King
George submitted to the colonies-the
peace of submission.
Orderly, respectful insubordination
will not suffice; the sheep must con-
tinue to be dumb under the hands of
the shearers.

Reverse Motion,

Senator Morgan, of Alabama, is re-
ported as saying that "the people of
this country have outlived the issues
which made the Jeffersonian era men,
orable and glorious"
The Senator was talking of expan-
siOn-not of money this time, but of
Philippine expansion.
Possibly the Senator is right--not
only in the matters of territorial and
monetary "eXpansion," but in some
others.
1t is curious to note, however, that
as territory and money expand the
other matters, which involve individual
and popular rights, seem to be gradu-
ally contracting.

There is dynamic force in an idea, and an

In the light of some recent events
there Is reason to doubt the accuracy
Of that statement.
The idea" that city owns river
without buying it, owns its watersheds
on both sides without purchase-the
latter to the exclusion of those who do
purchase, is one that seems to promise
chains for the dynamo force of the
freer, broader, onward, upward pro-
clivity Of the opposing .'idea."

A SpeCk of Conversion.

How ridiculous it is for some of Cumber-
lands praisels to talk of Cutberldbd coal,
meaning thereby the coal which comes from
the Georges Creek region. 1t would tie just
as absurd for the people of Homecoming to
praise this city with Cumberlands glass, gas,
Narrows Park or anything else. BE it re
membered that coal which comes from the
mines of this region is Georgcs Greek coal !;

Frostburg last Sunday. 1t appears they took

scription, seized spoon and attacked the
bowls contents. Now he wonders how it all

Chance for a Patriot.

Our attention has been called to the fact
that a number of graves of old soldiers are as
yet unmarked by tombstone or monument.
This fact is to be deprecated. There are ways
and means by which at least modest mark
of esteem could be raised above the sacred
mounds of our dead soldiers. There is a way
to procure tombstones and we trust the
proper authorities will take some action and
not leave it to the charity of a patriotic public.
Mark the graves of all our soldier dead
Homecoming Str.
There would be no trouble about
this matter whatever if some "tomb-
stone or monument man, who is also
loud patriot, would step up and an
nounce-
Here am I-how many do you want?
You shall have them, and they shall cost
you nothing.
If this tombstone or monument
man be recent but noisy recruit to the
ranks Of those who proclaim themselves
the only friends of the miners,n so
much the better, for the memory of the
poor dead soldiers ought to appeal
with overpowering force to one whose
heart just now bleeds for the living
soldier of the underground.
Appealing effectively, no enemy,
social or political, can thence challenge
his biography for the record of a
single, lone, iorn disinterested act.
The miners, it is true, may vainly
ask-"w where was he att in 1882 and
1894 H-but no "doleful cry" can ever
after "hark from the tombs" of buried
valor.

The Grand Jury's Omce.

The New York IVOrM has a LAWYER
retained on its staff to tell the truth,
especially about law. He lays it down
tiat-footed that.
The criminal law exists for the protection
of the public and not for purposes of private
vindictveness.
Which, being elaborated, means
that "the criminal law exists for the
protection Of all of 1.-THE public" not
for a part, land that it cannot. there
fore, exist "for purposes Of sectional
any more than "private vindictive-
ness

1t would seem, therefore, that if the

only adciSers named by law, it could
just as easily elect to ignore the de-

The Cumberland independent is op-
posed to arbitration.
1t prefers ''the endless chain"
method of restricting industrial ex-
panslon on Georges Creek as provided
by the oyerpowering respect States
attorneys and grand jures have for
aboriginal laws.
The independent thus adds one more
commanding reason to the pile, al
ready mountain-high, why Georges
Creek should take its own business in
its own hands.

No Harmony in this Medley.

The late grand jury cut out lot of
work for future grand juries."
Saloon keepers, taX-collectors, pub
lc-meetIng promoters and newspapers
are advised to go slower.
1t is pretty safe to say, however, that
while the people agree with the grand
jury concerning the saloou-keepers
and taX-collectors, they are not yet
ready to admit that peaceable public
assembly for public purposes is to be
classed with dice-throwIng for drinks,
or that the liberty of the press is to be
herded with the freedom which neg
lects collection and return of taxes.

Cause and Effect.

According to Mr.. Hals;ead, United
States consul at Birmingham, Eng
land, elsewhere quoted, the labor
unions have driven both British trade
and capital to this country by their
"insatiate demands upon employers.
That is the philosophy of the strike
idea, demonstrated by history right
here.
Both the Clearheld and Pocahontas
coal fields owe to labor organization in
this region, more than to any other
primary cause, their rise into the class
of leading producers.
This, we repeat, is history, and his
tory cannot be negatived by bravado.
