TOWN AND VICINITY.
The Effect.

The item headed Present .Nui"x of
the Street Paving Cases was written
by K. II. Gordon, attorney.
From the Judicial quotation he makes
it will be seen that both the Act under
which the Ordinance was authorized
and the Ordinance itself are fatally
defective.
Meanwhile, the fact remains that To
save technical injustice to the property
appreciated i'll valuelby the paving, at
least SIP 900 has to be levied upon prop
crtv that has no direct material interest
whatever in the improvement

\ Needless, if Not Vicious Publication.

Much Indignation has been expressed
over the impeachment last week by the
Homecoming star of Homecoming, ria the
Homecoming star of Frosthurg, of 1.-THE
principal and lat least portion of the
Faculty. of the Stat" Normal School
Very correctly it is held that the pub
Usher, III person or by proxy, should
have first submitted the information
upon which his innurndo is based to the
State School Board.
If, after at least one meeting of the
Board, both the publisher and his infor-
nation be ignored, then would have been
time enough to allude to the matter i'll
any public print, much less one affected
ly solicitors about the welfare of the
school
Saving the latter clause. the foregoing
is the view of one of the towns best and
most conservative business men.
Let it be fully understood that the
people of Frostburg are not concerned
about 1.-THE principal" nor "a portion of
the faculty. but they do resent unneces-
sary, uncalled-for, gratuitous imputa-
tions which fall at last upon the School
until the last corrective recourse has
been tried and found wanting"

Present Status of Strcct-Paying Cases.
Judge Boyd heard the demurrer, en-
tered to the bill of complaint filed by d.
+. McMullen Fl 0. to restrain the col
lection of the amounts due the city for
the paving of Main street, and i'll his
written opinion he says:
That the Ordinance is absolutely VOID 1t
did not give the lot-owners an opportunity
to he heard, and even if the engineer and
Street committee should have complied
literally with Section !, it would not have
cured the defects i'll the proceedings. There
was no provision IN the statute. lChaptcr IS
of Acts of 1907 or IN the Ordinance for
notice to the propcrty-owncrS who are to be
affected, or any opportunity for them to he
heard. The law of this State Is now SO we'll
settled that there is no longer any room for
controversy about it.
The law must require notice to them
(pr0perty-OWncrS and give them right to
hearing, and an opportunity to be heard.
The Legislature may prescribe the
kind of notice, and the mode in which it
shall be given, but it cannot dispense
with all notice.
The Act of 1902 does not require any
notice i'll terms, but as was said of the
Act of 1874, Chapter Pts, in Scharfs'
case, 1t was not necessary for the Legis-
lature to designate all the formaltieS
The Court then passes over the question
as to the night to delegate the power to
the Street committee, and expresses
doubt as to this exercise of power. The
Court given an opportunity to answer
but intimateS that il does not see how an
answer can help the Mayor and City
Council.
This absolutely disposeS of the cases
brought by the city, and the only thing
now to do is to proceed under the de
cision i'll Uhlman's case, in % Maryland
The steps necessary to be taken will be
the passage of a new Act of Assembly,
and a new Ordinance. If this is proper
ly done there is no reason why the prop
erty-ownerS who have not paid cannot
be made to pay for the benefits they may
have received from the paving which
has been done by the city. Such steps
will be taken by the city authorities to
compel payment by those who have not
vet paid.

BEGINNING \ REVOLUTION.

The Pacific Coast is now facing
the most serious and far-reaching
upheaval in the history of the gov
ernment, if President Roosevelt earn
estly pursues his investigations into
the land frauds
No man can guess the stopping
place, nor estimate the number of
prominent officials and influential
citizens to be involved in these dis
graceful revelations.
Oregon is already in the meshes of
the inquistors, Idaho will soon be
plunged into an equally sensational
uproar and the inspectors are also
suenting on the trails of Washington
g transactions.
II IS the beginning of a revolution
The president will not stop, it is alleg-
ed, until the last infamous nest of
thieves is smoked out. He is deter
mined to clear the government of this
. Une species of fraud, at least, and he
has the hearty cooperation and en-
'couragement of every good citizen,
regardless of party affiliations or
prejudice.
If the frauds are prosecuted to the
limit and the rascals weeded out, as
ii now seems they will be, one of two
momentous results will follow Either
the present political power of the
Northwest states will be entirely un-
seated in the revulsion of feeling
against the party that is largely re-
sponsible for shielding the thieves
and dishonest officials, and a new
power will come into possession OF
those states, or else, the republican
party in those states will drop the
convicted officials as though they
were vipers, as it have done with
Senator Burton, in Kansas, thus pre-
serving the influence of the party
at large by sacrificing the Officials
that have 50 long been at the lead.
II the republican factions take VI
the fight and attempt to defend tn
accused officials, against whom tn
evidence is unmistakable, 1t will Ger
tainly mean the utter destruction O
the power of the entire party in tn
Northwest. But If the officials ar
repudiated, abandoned to their fate
the integrity of the party win be pre-
served and the riddance of the thieve
will only serve to make 1t stronge
because the riddance was accomplish
ed by a president from its ow
ranks.

While the county court is in ses-
sion now, something should be done
TO encourage and assist Superinten-
dent Welles in his work of collecting
and displaying the educational eX-
hibit. So far, his hands are tied. THE
county must be represented, yet he
has no funds with which to purchase
cabinets for the display. These nee
essary features must be provided. The
cost will not exceed 5000 it is thought,
and the cabinets can be retained by
the county, to be used in future ex-
hibits, and will become permanent
assets of the county superintendent's
office.
The educational exhibit can be col
lected without expense. as the teach
ers will send all reports to the su-
perintendent'se office. where they
will be classified, prepared for a
creditable display and made ready
for the fair. All that is needed is a
set of cabinets, in which to display
the exhibits, and the county should
be glad to supply these, in order to
make the best possible showing fol
the schools of Umatilla.
This county must not be in the sec-
ond or third class, in the general

expense of placing it on exhibit, in
first-class condition, should be borne

PERIL IN THE HAND-SHAKE.

Not long ago DIR. J. N. Hirsch, of Chicago,
said: zThe most delicate perfume upon the
hands is not sign of freedom from germs,
and the most refined are not free from dis
case of lungs or throat, and the germs are
rapidly spread by touching the hand that
has handled the handkerchief of one aff1ict-
ed with a cold, catarrh or consumption:
The breath one inhales from the lungs OF
another may contain germs OF disease" You
will not only be able to resist the germs OF
consumption, but many thousands OF cases
have been known where persons who were
suffering from incipient phthisis or the
early stages of consumption were absolutely
cured by DR.. Pierces Golden Medical Dis
covery. 1t maintains a persons nutrition
by enabling him to eat, retain, digest and
assimilate food. II overcomes the gastric
irritability and symptoms of indigestion,
and thus the person is saved from those
symptoms Of fever, night-sweats, headache,
etc, which are so common.
An Alternative extract like DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery, made OF roots
and herbs, without the use of alcohol, will
assist the stomach in assinlilating or taking
up from the food such elements as are
required for the blood, will assist the liver
in throwing off the poisons in the system:
Do not permit some designing druggist
to insult your intelligence by offering you
a remedy which he claims is "just as good
because he nrade it up himself, or ten
chances to one you will get a medicine
made up largely of alcohol, which will
only weaken the system.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery

TO RAISE COTTON PRICES.

The Georgia farmers who gathered
at Fort Gaines and burned 5000 bales
of cotton hope to inspire similar sac
rifices all through the South. 1t is
actually proposed that 100000 bales
be destroyed, each state burning its
fair proportion. The purpose is to
reduce the supply of the staple and
so put up the price.
Some years ago, as the result of a
bumper" crop. movement was
started to limit the production of cot
ton and raise the price on the plan
that each farmer should reduce his
acreage by a certain percentage. The
result was that the prospect of better
prices led many farmers to plant
more than ever. 1t remains to be seen
whether Texas and Mississippi grow
ers will not look on. Georgia's cotton
fires as beacons of hope, and store
their own crops on the chance of a
rising market-New York World.

From any musty prose.
