A Glance of DESTINY.

1t makes little difference about cir
culation, or size of sheet, large or
small, the paper should have some
thing in it to engage both attention
and study.
Moreover, the printer or editor who
works at prices without margin for the
inevitable rainy day" will continue
to live in back yards, and on street
still looking like he takes his semi
annual bath in rca-cup.
Men who thus deprecIate their own
value can never exert any influence,
no matter how many people they serve
for nothing or circulation they have
begged.
"Circulation" is slippery quantity
so slippery that the paper that has
not solitary spark of the magnetism
of good sen sc in it cannot hold it.
One year will suffice to demonstrate to
hundreds that second years bunco is
too many.

Answers to Correspondents.

In reply to second letter from
Brute" the JOURNAL will say-"No,
it has never delivered classic lecture
on hogs Had it done so the effort
would have been no sloppy Bateman
farm dissertation, but something like
this"
Hogs. being plebeiap, have had hard time
Not born to the purple of kingship, they have
been more or less tabOoed by the 400 of both
ancient and modern times. Indeed, from
the Mosaic dispensation to the day when
pagan Rome set her victorious st lndards upon
the walls of the Holy City hogs have been
deemed unclean. Persecution has driven
them in all times from pillar to post health
laws expelled them from the menu of hotels
i'll all Jewry, and on Fridays in all Chris
tendon for generations, and even devils took
up abode in their bristling bodies and led
them pelImell into the sea.
But outhving the empires of good and evil
prescription, the hog survives and hls tribe
living on i'll developing processes, he is to-
day the sine Y"d nOn of the worlds best winter
living and the very core of the heart of one
Of our great Country's biggest Trusts.
1t is told us both in Ella and Ivanhoe that
in classic times even the Chinese robbed the
cradle of hoghood by roasting the stockings,
while barbaric appetite in far-oif lands kept
it from going to the grave by rearing and
tattening shOtes for great feasts in the forests
of the DruidS carving and slicing them into
juicy fitch alike for the knight and the
peasant.
There was a square deal in those days.
Because man was a republican was no
reason why he should get all the town and
county printing,
The JOURNAL trod on the crumbing
edge of IL aggressive application right
there.
The hogs civilizng tendencies have been
almost marvellous. Among the curiosites of
the Athenan circus was the shote that would
come squealing fraternally at the sound of
an Irish cultural or Welsh tri-syllable, To
day, however he is superseded by the Self

this elevation, but having drank from the

$4,000 Wanted.

A few weeks ago Rev. A. c. Haver-
stick reminded by letter the State
Board of Education of the need of
legislative provision for the compile
ton, furnishing and maintenance of
State Normal School, No. ,.
On the 10Th inst. the State Board
met and among the actions taken the
following resolution was adopted:
RcSoi"ed, That the State Board of Education
instruct the Secretary to inform Rev Mr.
Haverstck that it will be advisable for the
Delegates and Senator from Allegany county
in the General Assembly to formulate a bill
appropriating five thousand dollars $4,000
for completing the building of State Normal
School, No. ., at Frostburg, and five thousand
dollars $4,000 for furnishing the building
and that the State Board of Education will
favor the passage of said bill before the Ways
and Means and Finance committees.
1t will be well also for the Delegates
and Senator to SEQ whether It is neces-
sary 40 repeat in this bill the clause of
the General Appropriation Act of
1898 which provides an appropriation
of 50 900 annualy for the support of
said school when established
To the JOURNAL this seems good
enough as 1t stands, but as lawyers and
even judges sometimes differ with the
great paper, it will be well for the
county's representatives, to make sure
of it.

Correspondence,

The JOURNAL begs "Brute'," par
don. but his language was too gross
in many instances. For instance, he
wrote "Cronin, the Tough" The
JOURNAL did not like that and soften
ed it to "Cronin. the Tedious" There
were other expressions much worse.
but the JOURNAL doesn't want to give
them, even here, although the provo
cation isgreat. Come again, Brute"
The JOURNAL very much regrets it
cannot publish 'Brute's' second letter,
