n TUuW elllOrldl ldSJ week contain
ed sentence of 100 words. Is it any
wonder the editor of that paper dis
likes "classical' language? People,
it is terrific error to allow your chill
dren to read stuff which undoes all
they learn of rhetoric at school. If
the marble-y yard must have your dol
lar, pay 1t to keep the Forum out of the
house.
Read first New Business Local"
Then read all the rest, including Bus
mess Locals"
The F'orum INDUCES an unbrotherly
kick at Moses Tross every time it gets
a chance. Moses is better republl-
can than the owner of the Forum ever
was. and he doesn't have to employ
any democratic assistance to make
him still better. But tits likely Moses
would have voted, had he enjoyed the
opportunity, TO keep Jonathan hin
Hingland.

Lee Fairchild has an excellent poem
on the editorial page of the New York
WorM of last Sunday. 1t contains
several pro Boer battle cries-so thrill
ling that it is evident Lee still smarts
under the treatment he received IN
Frostburg during the time he was an
ally of England.
The speech in defence of the town
against Mrs. A. a. Everstine's suit tor
damages by A. a. Doub Tuesday was
reported to the JOURNAL AS an able,
eloquent effort.
The Forum thinks the JOURNAL
guilty of some new ideas on circula-
ton values, but if it will read the
Baltimore SIN almanac it will find
these ideas sententlously but beauti
fully elaborated.
Council roped in some citizens to
share responsibility in the next mistake
aud d, cided Friday of last week to in
vest in more holes, provided an anal

Council could not get its call for IL
public meeting printed at the black
leg contract office, Zimmerly wouldn't
print it, the FLAT cate" advertising
office was full Of billy priced job
work, and the JOURNAL was sighted.
What is blackleg contract worth

There is new advertisement of lu-

that all bargains for rent should be
stated in written agreements between

FOR advertising rates that are fair
to both the transient and standing

Keep your eye off the Gleaaer.
David Crouin, it is understood,
claims to have rescued the F0rum and
placed it on its feet. This is a poor
compliment tothose who permitted the
thing to wobble off its eXtrpmities.
But it will be in line with its history
if the current suspicion be we'll found
ed that as soon as Dawvid's brother
Jonathan imagines it is again on its
pegs its editor will be exchanged for
au editor who Johnnie thinks can edit.

"Thc Mineral County Jail"

During hol day week IA tramp came
through town, became obstreperous,
was arrested by bailiff Bowen, taken
before justice d. J. Williams, where
he asserted more than his rights as an
American citizen and was sent to the
House Of Correction.
Before leaving he made the bailtf
holiday gift of the following "pome y
I'm a stranger in this city
My name is Paddy Flynn;
got tight the other night,
And the oops-they ran me in,
had no one to go my bail
No one to pay my fine
So they sent me up to keyser
To do little time.
CHORUS
Such lot of devils,
You bet, never saw
Bummers, thieves, highwaymen-
Breakers of the law.
They sang bad songs the whole night long
Their curses fell like hail
I'll bless the day they take me away
From the Mineral county Jail.
The only friend had at all
Was happy sailor Jack;
He told me all the lies he knew,
And of the cribs he once did crack
He cracked them in Chicago,
He robbed the Southern Mail
His lies froze the blood of an honest man
In the Mineral county Jail.
CHORUS.
There Is none but the wicked
Go over the road we co."
1t was only last Sunday
Mr.. Myers told me so.
As SIT here on my bed
And read the Good Book through,
I'm thinking of the dreadful day
I'll get turned up" too.
! Even now there is the Sheriff
Awaiting for me and you;
He'll take us DER to Moundsvile
To do Il year or two.

Explained.

The Forum complains that the JOUR-
NAL did not fulfil a F1rum prophecy.
1t says the JOURNAL did not explain
''how paper without IL circulation
can be the best advertising medium
on Geo 'ges Creek
The paper that wants its lies ac-
counted for is 'rXpecting' too much.
But this can be stated:
If circulation" counts as every
thing. the handful method wins.
That is, the business man who has
most handbills printed and distributed
is the sharpest. SmarteSt, shrewdest
advertiser. But the handful. it must
be remembered, has to be ,torced on the
people, for if they had to pay for it,
its "circulation' wouldn't bring in
revenue enough to pay for an aft
davit.
This brings the JOURNAL to say that
the FOrHm amounts to no more than Il
composite handbii that is, combi-
nation of several advertisements ac-
companied by some inane gossip,
inert Washington correspondence and
an utterly insipid attempt at editorial.
These make the thing worse than if
it pretended only to be- handful.
The question, properly stated, IS
how can composite handful, with
only ''l,00S' circulation, be better
advertising mediIm than handful
that is not composite and whose cir
culation depends wholly upon the ad-
vertiser's regard for numbersP

There is more Catarrh in this section of the
country than all other diseases put together,
and until the last few years was supposed to
be incurable. Fora great many years doctors
pronounced 1t a local disease, and prescribed
local remedies and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment pronounced it i'll
durable. Science has proven catarrh to bc a
constitutional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment Halls Catarrh
