MANUFACTURERS AND TARIFF.

One of the strongest arguments
against the Republican party in It's
present attitude on the tariff and reci-
procity is found in the recent remark
able and significant collection of letters
from manufacturers of machinery In
the United States, made by the Amer
lean Machinist That paper interroga.
ted the machinery manufacturers as to
their views on reciprocity and the
tariff, and the effect of these on the ex-
port trade. The circular letter which
the American Machinist sent ont asked
for opinions IN general as to the passage
in Mr.. McKinley's Buffalo speech re-
lating to reciprocity, and specially,
among others, these two questions
''Do you need q protective tariff in
your own particular trader" "Do You
think the present high tariff has ten
deney to retard foreign trader"
The replies are particularly note
worthy. OF the tifty-eIght replies re-
csived, thirty -eight unqualifedly in
dorse the passage from Mr.. McKinley's
speech, seven endorse it with qualifica-
ton, and none disapproves it..
No less than thirty-four of the fifty
eight declare that they need no tariff
on their products, and two say they do
need 1T.
AS many as forty-two say they would
abolish or reduce the tariff on machine
tools and three would leave it alone.
AS to foreign trade, thirty -four think
the high tariff retards it, and four
think it does not.
These replies were received from es-
adjustments in thirteen different
States and in some forty different
cities. It is significant that, except
Maryland, none of the Southern States
which are solidly democratic, were in
cIuded. The States selected were
New York, Connecticut, Rhode Island,
Massachusetts, Maine, New Jersey,
Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland,
Ohio. Illinois, Wisconsin and Iowa.
If even the protected manufacturers
in these States have grown democratic
and have come to believe in the eco
nomic principles of the party as to the
tariff, the democratic party in the fall
elections will win victory of the most
significant proportions.

CORRESPONDENTS.
A Picture Wanted.

WASHINGTON. d. c., Nov. Is, 1902.
To the MINING JOURNAL.
am informed that among the pictures
disposed of at the sale of the late Miss
Sarah Wright's effects at Grahamton sew.
eral months ago, was one that is believed
to have been picture of Rev. John
George Butler, my great grandfather
who was pastor of the Lutheran Church
in Cumberland, Md, 1905 to 1916, and
who served and, think, built the first
Lutheran Church in Frostburg.
am very DESTROYS of verifying this
rumor and, if found correct, of obtaining
this picture; or at least seeing it and
having copy of it made.
If the picture is yet in existence and
the owner is willing to dispose of it,
am willing to purchrseit at reasonable
price.
You would greatly oblige me by pub
fishing this letter, or in some other way
calling attention to the matter.
There is nothing, so far as l know, in
existence belonging to my honored an
cestor, only his autograph in the ole
church book in Cumberland, and you
may readily understand my motive il
the matter. Very truly yours,

COUNTY.
NiiX-lTp.

Some hullabaloO has been raised about
disobedience of mining laws, last passed.
For this there is probably some reason,
possibly none.
Again probably too much has been
in some instances expected in less than
year. If it takes ten years i'll Pennsyl-
vania to find ont that IA mining law can
be fully observed why should as much
be expected i'll ten months in Maryland?
Yet again-miners, like doctors, differ
for instance, about the ''cross-cut"
business, where
To be or not to be, that is the question
Whether It's nObler without air to suffer,
Or, with the air, cut shorter our lease of
work
And to the general warmth lose the fuel?
That is an awfully poor paraphrase
but it expresses one phase of the situa
ton.
In others the Atlanta Constitution
asks the Georgia Legislature:
Why toll ye brethren, day and night
So many laws to make,
When now we have, from left to right,
More laws than we can break?
Meanwhile, whatever is remediable
should be remedied. Human life and
health are supreme considerations, yet
"the blood of the martyrs was the seed
of the church,

Unpopular Proceedings.

At a recent meeting of the School
Board George Britt, of Midlothian; j.
T. Bramble, of Cumberland, and M. B.
Perrin, of Flintstone, were appointed
truant officers for the public schools.
These appointments were made under
a provision of the compulsory attendance
law, statute not entirely popular.
Here and there man "needs" the work
of his boys, and so on.
A gentleman who obtained his own
education i'll Europe told the JOURNAL
he "came here especially to escape COM
pulsory laws because 1 don't like to be
compulsed."
Which reminds the JOURNAL of an
other gentleman several years ago when
there was talk of obtaining an injunc-
ton to prevent some questionable inn
provement. He said II know what
am doing let 'em injunct!'

Journalistic Obituary.

w. NJ. Conn, senior member of w.
M. Conn & Co., publishers of the Forum,
left Sunday evening, and Sam DeNedrey
editor, followed Thursday.
Shortly after noon the door of the
Office was placarded-
Sold to Henry f. Cook.
Charles G.. Watson, owner, later con-
tirmed the story, adding
am now out of the newspaper business
for good and all.
Last Monday Mr.. Cook visited Ber-
lin, Pa, to investigate a fattering offer
to establish a prohibition paper in that
town. He returned Tuesday much I'M
pressed. 1t is probable that his pur-
chase of For"m plant is preliminary to
removal to that point.
The JOURNAL makes this entire state
ment with regret. 1t had hoped the
Forum would be continued, and it now
trusts that Mr.. Cook will find enough
employment to make his combined plant
useful and profitable without removal.
He is an excellent printer, a good citizen
whom very many would regret to see go
away.

The New Mail.

The JOURNAL erred last week in stat
ing that pouch was made up here ria
Electric road to Cumberland at p. III.
The only one is that sent at 10 a. M,
which delivers mail in Cumberland in
time to gain 81, hours eastward.
The ! p. H., pouch, however, is the
one most desired, as it would furnish
the most daylight delivery in the cities,
both east and west.
Hence, if only one mail daily can be
afforded by the Electric line this Is very
far preferable to the 10 a. III. hour,
which connects directly with only one
train for eastern delivery mainly next
day.
What is most wanting these times is
most night transmission and dnyiigM de-
livery, and the JOURNAL believes if the
matter We're clearly presented to the
postal authorities at headquarters they
would see it as Frostburg does.

journalistic.

Hon. A. f. Cooper, congressman elect
from the Somerset (Pa.) district, wrote
a letter of thanks to l.. A. Smith, editor
of the Meyersdale Commercial. for 1.-The
very effective work. done for him by
that paper. In fact, "no paper was
quoted so frequently by the other news
papers as was the Commercial" This
testimonial would seem to establish
Smiths paper as an organ without a
peer in Cooper's jurisdiction in spite of
both Meyersdale and Salisbury denounce-
ments. Or probably it is way Mr..
Cooper has of saying the others are only
newspapers.

TOWN AND VICINITY.

A flock of Italians got into a squabble
at Borden Yard Saturday night and one
lost the score by II stitches in his scalp
to for the crowd. DR.. DeNaouley
was the final referee.
Monday evening Camelo Marabella,
italian fruit vender, corner Broadway
and Mechanic streets, took the part of Il
child that had offended William Morgan.
Whereat Morgan wanted to know Mara
bella's business i'll the premises The
dispute waXed hot enough for Mara
bella to run out to Union street in search
of an officer. Finding all had gone to
supper, he returned. Meanwhile, Nor
gan went back, put on his coat, re-
turned, met Marabella, in front of Mrs.
w. r. Coyner's door and renewed the
debate. Then he struck Marabella :;
struck him again, and again, the latter
practically offering no resistance. Then
a brother of Morgan lit in and for few
moments took Marabella off William S
hands. Finally Marabella broke for his
store on run that he manifestly felt
was the race of his life. But he ran
into the arms of third Morgan who
slung him back into Williams care.
At last he got away and sprinted for
refuge among his friends in the Eleanor
building. A crowd had meanwhile as
sembled and at length peace was re-
stored. Justice Weimer had endeavored
to stop the trouble but no attention was
paid to him. Officer Roger Williams
came on the scene at the close and placed
both William Morgan and Marabella in
the lookup. Charges of disorderly con-
duct were alleged against both. Morgan
submitted his case" and was fined 81
by justice Chambers. Marabella had a
hearing Tuesday afternoon. After two
witnesses testified the same justice dis
missed the case. 1t is the opinion OF
many that this affair was not well
handled; that the prosecution should
have been more searching and vigorous
