A writer i'll the New York Il'orid finds
fault with the Hon. Mark Autocrat
Hanna for using the work, "enthuse. y
He asks where did Mr. Hanna get such
a harsh, vulgar travesty upon word
Not in any dictionary. Not i'll any

Perhaps, like the FroStburg Forum, Mr.
Hanna entertains contempt for the use
of proper words.
Mr.. Pink Whiskers, of Pocahontas, re-
ports that the ordinance prohibiting the
culture of hogs inside the corporate
limits of his town is to be contested by a

The farmers of Garrett county, it is
reported are thinking of having a vol
ume of David Cronin $ works published,
but are at loss for title. The same
difficulty arose when old 1Esop had COM
pleted bis observations, but the cats,
dogs, chipmunks, etc, suggested
Fables and it was adopted. In the
Garrett county case the word is too

The JOURNAL hopes for the best.
1t is believed that Jonathan has dis

Most newspaper advertisers know that
they do not need to entrap people by
their lads" but have only to tell a
straightforward tale. The same impulse
that leads people to look into show win
dOws causes them to read the advertis-
