OCTOBER -, 1901


A well-known business man hit the nail
on the head last night when he said that
Senator Daniel was rather inconsistent in
his stated fears that Roosevelt would tear
the Constitution into shreds, when he
(DanieD spent the four best years of his
life from 81 to 65, exerting every possible
effort to do the same thing which he now
so unjustlv and untruthfully accuses the
President of doing.-Cum berland Ne"s.
The well known business man.
like the Ncws, evidently didn't know
all about his topic.
1t is one thing to tear the Constitu
ton INTO shreds' and another to tear
a construction of 1.-The Constitution into
shreds."
1t is still another to fight for CON
struction of the Constitution by the
highest court, and yet another to fight
against it.
Taking the bred Scott case as the
issue of that days issues, Senator
Daniel and his friends went into the
field to sustain the highest courts con-
struction of the Constitution; his oppo-
nents went in to sustain their oWD
Interpretation of it.
Hence, the JOURNAL has been long

damages.

The jury in the case of Miss Mary f.
Cavanaugh, of Midland, against the
Cumberland and Westernport Electric
Railway, for $4,000, damages, brought
in verdict for $1,000 for the plaintiff
Miss Cavanaugh was injured in a
frightful plunge occasioned by car
endeavoring to make straight line of a
curved track at the nadir of Grant street
chute in February. last. The attempt
was failure. The car was badly
broken and a number of passengers
hurt.
The case of Miss Katie J. Byrnes. also
hurt, was compromised in the sum of
$50. and others i'll sums unknown.
How much that "dead-sure thing"
has cost the company is not known, but
there is ground for belief that the sum
would have built at least two-Mirds Of

4 Vain COnnlaint.

The grand jury report, not lengthy
but pungent, impeaches the character OF
the commumty's police protection.
Both officers i'll town and constablcs
out of town are derelict.
But when the people 90 to the polls to
elect these officers indirectly they are
told by the politicians that these Of

can or will furnish.
So that unless the grand jury can do
something to the people tor elrcting
commissioners who appoint such officers,
what's the use?

What is Wanted.

Negatively-no more dispute with the
Electric Railway Company.
Positively-an amity which means
real reciprocity of accommodations for
privileges enjoyed.
Negatively-no more Grant-street
chute runaways. nor even Green street
evasion of them.
Positively-a Belt Line that will
serve the greatest number and snrr all
from peril.
The negative and positive poles of
these wants lie close together and As all
other electric adaptations move in
circles to completion. why not these?

In fact, 1.-THE hide-bound party organ,'

day, 26th inst
"A Trip to Chinatown" hinges on the
efforts of a party of young fellows and
their girls to elude an aged admirer of
the leader of the girls, who is known AS
the Widow" They have planned to
go out and have good time, but fear
this aged admirer will put damper on
the affair, and their efforts to elude him
result in no end of fun.
The dialogue is bright and crisp the
situations amusing in the extreme, and
the musical numbers comprise some of
the latest successes, while the vaude-
vile features are novel and up-tO-date.
A first class company of clever COM
edians is promised.

Accidents.

Henry Fisher, bailiff, climbed on the

some peaches. But the man is large, the
fence frail; hence IL break and fall,
wherein Mr.. Fisher had two ribs broken

This misfortune takes him from the
police sphere of action for some time.
Meanwhile, John Crawford, champion
Scotch welterweight, protects the town
from both invasion and eruption.

Case in Point.

Last Saturday evening a miner COM
ing from his work on an electric car in
advertently spat upon the floor.
The conductor informed him that the
floor was not laid for that purpose.
The miner observed mildly i'll response
that he hadn't added much to the i'll
sanitary condition of the floor, and so on.
Up to this point it is probable the
miner was almost pardonably, III the
wrong.
But here the conductor, assisted by
the motorman, took forcible hold of the
miner, pnt him off the Car and left him
to walk home.
Several people in this town would
have had fight over the issue, either
at the moment or in court.
But this miner is Il mild hammered
citizen of FrOstburg, IA taxpayer and
thus in part owner of the franchise
which the electric road company is en-
jOying without permission.
He erred i'll citing wrong others had
committed scores of times in justification
of his own, but who is so regenerate
that he has always an apology, ready
made, upon his tongue, and promise
to do better, cut-and dried, upon his
lip?
This incident Is mentioned as basis
for the inquiry-has the Electric Road
company any rights in the town of
Frostburg which citizen of Frostburg
has not in the Electric Road company's
cars?

ticket was not elected, yet it lost but three out

and it likewise predicted that the Ninth ward
nominee would go down. 1t also predicted
that-t the Sixth ward nominee would be defeated,
