Not the Money. but the School.

Good it is to see how the journalistic
brethren of Frostburg agree in unity as
touching the State Normal School No. ,.
What ever the political or fractional differ
ences sundering us, one touch of the pocket
book makes the whole shooting match kin !,
Homecoming Press.
Applied to the JOURNAL that is an
ungracious remark.
1t is even SO as applied to the people
of the town of Frostburg, who, first and
last, have contributed directly several
thousands of dollars to establish and
keep the school going.
The State on its part dccfptpd tie
torn's gih and is in hoOor bo"nd to util-
ize what is now It's orn property to the
popnlar ddrontaqe implied in the pur-
pose to which the state also deiicotcd it,,
When the performance of this obi
CATION becomes question, then, neither
the integrity of JOURNAL nor of popular
solicitude should be impeached as being
due to the "touch of the pocket book. "
Hence, the Press has no right what
ever to include JOURNAL and people in
it's confession of shooting match
relationships.

\ Musical Treat.

Next Tuesday evening the music
lovers of Frostburg and vicinity will
have an opportunity to hear the musical
treat of the season. The Boston Sym
phony Orchestra, consisting Of 81 ladies,
the most famous female orchestra i'll the
world. will come directly from Rich

Frostburg Opera House.

1t was large audience that greeted the
Boston Ladies Symphony Orchestra at the
Temple Theatre last night, and it was a
thoroughly pleased lot of people that left
the building about two hours after the first
number of the program. The concert was
one of the most enjoyable musical treats
ever given here.
H. Nevins, manager of the Star enter
tainment at Green Bay, writes as
follows:
| have during the last few years played
Sousa's Band, Gilmore's Band, Brooke S
Band, and Banda Rossa-abOut the whole
gamut of the big musical organizations of
this character, but none of which, III my
estimation, gave more pleasure to an audi
cnce than did the Boston Ladies' symphony
Orchestra.

The PcODle'S Fault.

A jury gave J. p Stakem, of Midland
l,500 damages against the Electric
Railway company. Fearing this will
pay Stakem's expenses for broken
collar-bone and permanently disabled
left arm, the company, as companies
are always able to do, will probably &C
to the Court of Appeals to have the
value of Stakem's injuries reduced tc
its lowest terms.
Just here two thoughts occur:
|, Citizens as jurors are kinder to in
dividuals than to the company.
,, Not as jurors they are kinder to the
company than to individuals, town OF
even to themselves.
In testimony whereof Messrs. Huston
of Frostburg, and Stakem, of Midland
were awarded enough to pay presumed
expenses but the same company is open
ly trespassing every hour of every day
and Sunday, too," upon the towns

Daniel O'Connell, the great Irish

times have changed. Nothing now is
politically right that is not "un-

1t is said to governor Warfeld's credit
that ne does not relish the calls of self
appointed committees of citizens. He
knows, probably, that it is in this way
many results miscarry which the people
vote and hope for from new administers

The Schools.

Prof. John II. White, examiner, was
in town Wednesday visiting the schools.
At Hill street he found the heating
capacity of furnace deplorably made
quate.
Truant officer Owen England seeing a
boy same day i'll post-office who ought
to have been in school ascertaIned that
"school had been turned out on account
of cold
At Grahamton Wednesday there was
no school for same cause.
Is it not strange that in so very many
instances the authorities install under
sized furnaces?
The apparatus in the State Normal is
far below what is needed to heat the
building to requisitely high temperature.
In supplying this lack good deal of
money can be spent to profitable
purpose.
Of course, no attention should be paid
to any suggestion of any of the Iona
coningS star in school matters. If they
or it is opposed to Wilson or O'Rourke,
1t is self-patenr that the one should go
in, the other retained.

The Actual Situation.

"Why has not the JOURNAL said
something of the Senatorial struggle at
Annapolis?' asked Cumberland sub
scriber Tuesday evening.
In brief the reply waS-the JOURNAL
is beginning to look upon the whole
representative scheme, as now elaborated
and exploited, as criminal humbug
and that it matters little who is sent to
Congress to misrepresent the people,
interests.
For instance, SO long as policy of
spending 100 millions in the Philippines
for II millions of trade is continued it
matters little whether ii be Rayner,
Smith or McComas who shall vote the
peoples money out of the country at
the behest of Secretary's report.
Meanwhile, when money is wanted
for Maryland harbor it comes, if it
comes at all, only after "A long and nag
ging dispute.
And people who want some of their
money back for good roads and other
internal improvements are laughed at.
AS the issue is now presented, how
ever, and according to German ethics,
McComas should be re elected, because
German will be far better off i'll the
Senate with him than with Rayner, or
even with Smith.

The Homecoming star of Frostburg
wants a sewage system, but fails to in
dictate the point or points it would land
the sewage. If the latter reaches the
surface at Allegany, Eckhart, Clarys-
vile, or Shaft, there will be objections;
at Cumberland it will be said I'VE have
tide water it will be expensive. The
only recourse the JOURNAL can work out
of the problem is-convey it into an
oven. bake cakes" of fertilizer and
swap the bricks to Garrett county farm
ers for more hogs; thus more sewage, and
SO on.
The gain of $203.3l in Frostburg post
Office receipts last year over 1902 is ac
cepted by the Homecoming STIR OF Frost
burg "as sure indication of' its own
growth This is the only instance in
the history of philosophy wherein the
effect appears before the caust exists.
There was little talk at the early
closing meeting, 22d inst, of establish

proposal And there should be con-
siderable actio", that soon, looking to
the nomination of four good men for
Mayor and Council. A first-class Board
of Trade and l4th-class Mayor and
Council will be an anomaly.
