The rendition of Pauline, OF An
Eventful Day an operctta, last night
i'll Ravenscrofts' Opera House, was ii
notable affair.
Excepting the leading part, taken by
Miss Mathilde Creutzberg, of Barton,
nearly all the talent engaged was local
and the performance generally was up
to the professional mark.
The Flower Scene was the leading
scenic feature, and, between floral and
feminine beauty, it elected uproarious
admiration and smashed all hearts.
Miss Creutzburg came i'll for much
commentators mention. Her easy, un-
pretending manner, sweet voice and
personal charm made her welcome to
the stage whenever her turn came.
The character of the ''fortune-teller, y
by Mrs. E. Stanley Hitchins, of Olive
Hill, KY, was most striking in costume
and otherwise admirably personated.
The operetta was an immense success
hence, i'll every way credit to the
pains-taking projectors and the 40 in
dustrious vocalists long trained for the
work

One of Its Affections.

The bricklayers' union of Denver, Col,
adopted resolution one day last week
declaring that unless the hod-carriers
quit unloading brick on the union men $
feet, 1--WE will stop work. v
"That is actually and literally true, y
says the Rocky Mountain Nc"S. More
over, "the quarrel is really serious and
may stop all building work in the city. y
That sort Of thing is one of the sicken-
ing features which atflict labor unionism.

ton AS something that can be used i'll

ocation, many of its constituents seem
predisposed to make their compact

We're jtOtherwise.

In his letter printed last week Gen.
Joseph Sprigg expressed amazement at
the Indifference of voters to their polit-
ical welfare.
There is good reason i'll Cumberland,
but none for unconcern up here i'll the
county.
As shown in these columns last week,
Cumberland is well off anyway.
Indeed, the higher the taxes the more
income from the county there is for
Cumberland.
1t is, therefore, to the city's interest
under the current assessment for taxes
to be high.
Were the city assessment as high as
the city valued itself i'll anti-pulp mill
arguments, there might be some APP
proach down there toward discomfort
with current affairs

Political.

Without going into lengthy details the
situation at this moment is one of uctirc
dissatisfaction among republicans dis
senting from both the methods and
vention. Indeed, there is urgent talk
of constructing an independent rcpub-
lican ticket, i'll which event Messrs.
Davisson Armstrong, of Frostburg, and
David p. Miller, of Cumberland for
county commissioners, may he taken as
types of its personnel.
Among the democrats there seems to
be decided call for David J. Lewis, of
Cumberland, for the State Senate, and
Gen. Joseph Sprigg is regarded us an
acceptable eligible for the House of
Delegates. Both these gentlemen can
90 on the stump, and the presumption
is the convention will strengthen its
ticket with other vigorous speaking talent
and thus gain decided advantage over
the republicans regulars.
Meanwhile, the ticket already i'll the
field has IA running-Star of large ma
jority and appealing to "regularity,' a
more powerful party deity than pa
triotism, feels serenely impregnable to
assault, especially by a divided foe.
From republicans and democrats the
JOURNAL looks for three tickcts-unleSS
the democrats select one SO unobjection-
able i'll IA personal way that the dis
affected republicans will agree inform
ally and quietly to support it. This,
however, is the least of all the prob
abilities.
Hence, unless the unexpected happens,
there will likely be three tickets.
Lastly, the outlook will be clearer
after next Wednesday.
The foregoing is ii judicial view of the
situation as it appears to-day.

CONSEQUENTIAL Damages.


A danger to workingmen of striking
for higher wages, or for any other change
of condition, lies in the consequences
which may follow failure.
This point is set forth i'll a paragraph
from recent issue of the Windber (Pa.)
JourndI. wherein that paper says
One effect of The strike of the steel workers
against the Steel Trust has been to compel a
greater solicitation of the monopoly.
Should the strike fail at this time it is evident
that future controversies would find the
great steel combination i'll much stronger
posItion to defend itself against organized
labor, as well as to offer more dangerous
competition to independent rivals.
1t is coming to bea matter of fact that
no strike should be inaugurated until

30 per rent. of the battles fought between
capital and labor have resulted i'll de-
fcats for the latter.
Could these results have been forseen,
would labor have been induced to i'll
stitute tests of endurance to secure its
rights?
The final conclusion is-thc strike Is
not the remedy, and, i'll the nature OF
civilized things, will never be.
The true cure lies somewhere Ill II
change to better political purposes and
methods-in conversion of the electOr
ate from the evil of inherited and nm
reasoning fidelity to the interests of
party and partisans.
That change may be IA long time COM
ing, but until it does come the wrong
sort of strike will be as fruitless of good
as is the wrong sort of vote.

cure with local treatment pronounced it in

We all know only too well the common
cold. 1t actively commences by causing
tickling in the throat or nose due to
congestion and eventually ascends or
descends, as the case may be, causing
all manner Of stuffy discomfort. 1t is
not perhaps sufficiently recognized that
the common cold is most infectious. The
germs, whatever they may be, have a
way of running through household. The
FIRST infected member Of family ought,
If it were practicable, to be put into
quarantine, SO as to save the rest of the
clan. Unluckily colds may be caught in
the trolley or the train or any place of
public assembly. Sad to say, places Of
worship are great breeding places of
colds, because the ventilation is not
usually of the best, and the air, being
overmuch used by the congregation, be-
comes of low quality, SO that the re-
spirer Of such air often falls an easy
prey TO the germs which are responsible
for colds. The unlucky man who, wiser
than his generation, insists on opening
windows, often gets much abused for
causing a cold by creating q draft. But
the mischief was probably done before
the breeze began to blow.

What a much abused parsonage Mrs.

all her social limitations! But it is only

find she merely voices public opinion, and
most of us will admit that public opinion
is one Of our national safeguards. She is
such a progressive lady, suiting her pre-
cepts to each generation, that it is hard
to ever master her unwritten laws, which
arr very often transgressed by those who,
with an Unfortunately high opinion Of
themselves, have no regard for the opin-

but they tend to make life very disagree

the expression Of a courteous social inter.
course.
