What MAY Come nt Last

Judge Jackson, of the United States
court, West Virginia, decided at Mar
tinsburg last Saturday that a temporary
injunction restraining Hon. Joseph f.
Thropp, of Pennsylvania, from pollut-
ing the Potomac river by turning the
waste water from his iron-ore bank,
above the Harpers Ferry Paper com
pany's mill, into the water, making it
unfit for the company'S use.
Reflexly, this means that the law, thus
interpreted, prohibits iron operators from
locating their ore mines on streams
above paper mills.
And, directly, the paper company has
obtained precedent which may ulti
mately establish the mouth of the Poto-
mac as the proper site for its paper
mills

This Is Party.

The voters of both parties should re-
member that ut last the real thing be-
hind the scenes is the United States
Senatorshlp.
All the talk about the countys bust
ness is by-play.
The uppermost question is-Shall A.
p. German be restored to place he dis
honored, or shall the competition for the
position be limited to republicans:
What travesty on the idea of repre-
sentative government!
What fraud on 'homc rule" when
we sacrifice every interest of 'home
rule" in order to promote the aspirations
of some man who cares not as much for
us as for the welfare of the hogs on his
farm!

The Marshall (Mo.) Drmocrui-NewS
says "it is claimed that our streets can
be macadamized for 81 cubic yard,
but it will cost IL great deal more than
that not to macadamiZe." That sort of
macadam of real limestone would doubt
less be good, but it would cost three
times more than paving and then be
still unclean. Nevertheless, if expend

A Complaint.

Frostburg hunters complain that, after
furnishing very many Garrett county
farmers with one of the best markets i'll
the country for agricultural produce, it
is poor return to make it a crime for
Georges Creek hunters to cross the Coun-
ty line in quest of CARROTS surplus crop
of squirrels and other game. 1t does
look that way, farmers of Garrett.

Misdirected Labor.

Gen. A. w. Greedy, +" ro"tc home
from an official visit to the Philippines,
was interviewed in London on Monday
when, among other observations, he gave
out this:
that the health Of the officers is being
undermined by the demands of society.
They dance until O'Clock nightly.
That's the sort of thing the yeonlanry
of the country is paying for-and getting.
in return, the contempt of the official
army and navy snobocracy.
Not only so-the yeomanry are voting
for the privilege of paying for the social
capers of the snobocracv.
Slavery to party makes the yeomanry
a concrete gump of national proportions.
