Save the Counties.

Abiding to the dominant power of the
city boss in politics Rev. John R. Stra-
ton, of Baltimore, said in a sermon last
Sunday:
Is it not monstrous that a great city like
Baltimore, with her culture and refinement,
her lovely homes and her gracious citizen
ship, her great wealth and her vast edu
cational and commercial interests should be
under the control of such a corrupt and cor
rupting force as this?
With the legislative aScendancy that
Baltimore is claiming and seeking, what
can be expected but the extension of
city-boss power over the entire State?
There is already bossism of the coun :
ties more or less, but it is stand-of
against that of the city, and each fur
nishes defence against eXcroachments of
the other.
But give Legislative sway over the
State to the admittedly corrupt control
of the city and a bad situation will be
multiplied by two.

LOCAL CORRESPONDENCE.
Address

TO the Town of Frostburg.
Fan city, where are thy much boasted
publiCs spirited men:
When thy star of hope is due to rise
and in ascendancy will mount the en-
folded complacently as though satisfied
for nature to take Its course?
Why do they abandon you to the mer-
cies of municipal campaign-one that
may be fraught with vital interest to thy
future welfare and progress?
1t is the writer's humble opinion that
If there has ever been a time in Frost
burg history when the town had more
need of municipal administrators who
will set their feet as far as those who
will go farthest toward annihilatlng the
hypOcrites and humbugs who stand in
the way of advancement, that time is
now.
We need them now for service during
the next few years.
Is not the very fact that the coming of
the Western Maryland Railroad right to
our side doors to add greatly to our
growth and commercial importance, if
not make of the town a considerable
manufacturing centre, enough to stir
into life the energies of every leading
citizen?
In view, therefore, of our Frightening
prospects for advancement, and without
any idea of paving the way for any
body's political preferment, | ask the
people of Frostburg. especially those who
have good reason to entertain hopes and
wishes for the towns welfare, to arouse
themselves, shake off the lethargy and
Indifference which PROSTATE town
politics.
Donot wait until the pretty politicians,
intelligent enough only for the exploita
ton of night soil, come forward with the
only ticket that is to appear at this
election.
The turn of the big tax payers should
come now, and the big tax payers, hav
ing most interest at stake, should take
it, and take it quick

An ENentfuI Trial.

The trial of Lloyd l.. Shatfer for breach
of promise "came off, as foretold in
divers newspaper representations Fri
day evening of last week.
The curtain raised upon stage
equipped as a courtroom and stocked
with its drHmdtiS per$OHne. The judges
Hons Ferdinand Williams and d.
Lindley Sloan, We're on the bench; the
plaintitf-a pretty young woman, her
counsel; the defendant-a staggeringly
handsome man, and his counsel, We're
all in place. Clerk John w. Yong,
sheriff Noah Hendley, and minor Of
ticials executed the orders of court.
After the usual preliminaries the jury
DR.. j. G. Pfeitfer of this place, fore
man, was brought in, each cheered to
the echo as he took his seat Frank G..
Beall was the one other member from
Frostburg.
The plaintiff Nina DeHaven,
took the stand, made a good witness and
stated a case so clear that at one stage
the defendant fell off his chair in a kick
ing faint. 1t was the finest pretense of
mental spasm and physical fit the jour
NAL has ever witnessed.
Miss Gertrude Morgan and the in
imitable John E. Edwards supported
the plaintiff in admirable manner.
The defendant, himself a good wit
ness, was cOrroborated in excellent style
by Miss Margaret Miller and Dr. George
Shcrretts, while Charles w. Donnelly
contributed to the disadvantage of both
sides
While the doctor was testifying some
thing he said "rattled" the fair plain
tiff, and she had to be subdued. 1t is
believed he ungallantly reflected upon
her antiquity as belle.
In the course of Donnelly's relation he
spoke of dog fight. When asked "whO
was there :" the court butted in and told
him, in effect. to keep still" Not long
later Donnelly let phial of underholt
fall on the floor, but not juror left his
seat.
Col. A. V. Newton, of Worcester,
Mass, appealed to the jury-opening
and closing in behalf of plaintiff
Messrs. George NJ. Eppler and David A
Robb pleaded for the defendant, and
judge Sloan charged the jury leugthily
but impartially the latter because he
himself said it. His paramount SYM
pathy with the fair sex, however, busted
out in several places.
The jury retired, but message came
indicating that the sheriff mad neglected
supplying the jury hall with a corkscrew
y page, too, reminded the defendant Of
something forgotten. Anyway, when
the jury came back it was evident that
a dividend had been declared
The foreman, pressed for an answer,
averred that the jury had found that
the plaintiff had been damaged dollars
and IS cents worth-a verdict indicating
that the jury believed both parties We're
"of age" when the alleged betrothal
took place. The foreman stated further
that the jury voted 3 dollars to them
selves-25 cents apiece, and "a cents
each to the judges.
The trial took place before full house,
the proceeds of admission to go to the
building of a new Masonic temple on a
corner of historic old Fort Cumberland.

COUNTY.
Cumberland Loses Its Big Municipal
Building.

About o'clock Monday morning fire
broke out III the Cumberland city hall
and within few hours the great struc-
ture was mass of ruins.
The fire broke out in the upper story
of the building, but the origin is I'M
known.
1t was a structure dedicated to com.
posite uses-municipal, theatrical, fra
ternal and business, and all these ele-
ments suffered loss i'll more or less
degree.
The loss to the city, over 100000, is
partly covered by $4,000 insurance.
Numerous adjacent properties sus-
tanned losses, but the fire department
did valiant service in combining the blaze
to the hall.
Plans for rebuilding are already
adopted.
