MINING JOURNAL.
FROSTBUHG, MD., AUGUST 18, 1882
Oder calls the editor of the Ifit “•
graduate of the Journal olltce.” Bud
joke on the Journal office.— Lonaconing
Beviiir.
“Bad," eh? Well, we believe
Robinson is a graduate of the Moil,
nee Valley Times office, in fact a
species of grandson of the Journal
office. Suppose that's very “bad."
In the meeting the other day Mr.
Mayer in the outset, while not really
flattering the press, did not object to
the facts going out through that me
dium. When it came to the Goal
Trade Journal, however, and the
three-quarter column “squib” of 1879,
his remarks were not impressively
complimentary to the Archimedean
implement that moves the world.
It is the opinion of many that the time
lias come (u unite tor the assertion and
protection of the rights <>' the people
against the steady and 'harming encroach
ments of corporations.—Cumberland In
dependent.
0, yes; but aren’t you still groping
away back among the mediaeval no
tions such as that the men ought to be
kicked for not going to work at 50
cents ?
Tub Proper Standard.— The colored
teachers of Louisville pass the same ex
amination as do the white teachers, and do
as much work afterward. In considera
tion of these facts the school hoard has at
last equalized their salaries. This was
right. The days of estimating the value
of services by any other standard than one
of right are about passed.—Wheeling Hey
itler.
That’s strange. Wo were at the
conference the other day expecting
the inauguration of the milienium,
but the weather was bad for new eras.
The “standard" was there, but the
companies didn’t, couldn’t or wouldn’t
eee it.
Where the Monet ib Coming
From. —The Cumberland Times of
Thursday says :
It was given out yesterday that Clear
field operators were sending money into
the region, and that secret emissaries were
known to have been here from that sec
tion. An operator staled last evening,
that it was pretty generally believed that
inegular supplies ot money, that had been
received of late, could he traced to this
source.
In this connection we understand
that Columbia Typographicial Union,
No. 101, of Washington, D. C., sent
ssl 25 to the miners of Georges Creek
this week. We believe brother Tay
lor claims membership in this body,
“now a fraction of the K. of L.," and
as a stockholder in the $51.25, be
ought to know the sources of those
"irregular supplies."
While Mr. Mayer was dispensing
the reasons why Georges Crosk coal
had been almost run out of market,
it would have been so very interes
ting had he told also why it became
necessary to build a new railroad out
let lor the region, and to move heaven
and earth to strangle it at Hay street
after it was built. Now, Mr. Henry
Lovei idge, for instance, has a fine as
sortment of vigorous statistics con
stantly on hand showing how the
new road became a necessity. We
recognized in Mr. Mayer’s figures
and statements demonstrating how
Clearfield had driven our coal out of
market several of the Maryland
and American complaints against the
Cumberland and Pennsylvania rail
toad. Certainly these allegations
looked like a half dozen pairs of
twins, and, although it comes over us
like ihe memory of a dream, it seems
as i! we had heard, as it were, some
body auy tha Clearfield coal region
and the Cumberland and Pennsyl
vania railroad had been engaged in a
com piracy against the superior qual
ity and proper market price of
Georges Creek coal.
MISCELLANEOUS.

Coal Mine Fire— A Serious Sit
uation.—Thuisday morning about 7
o’clo’ck fire was discovered issuing
from the mouth of aslope near Vale
Summit station, superintended in
earlier days by Michael Baxter and
Thomas Corcoran. This is one ot
several slopes driven 1,100 feet on a
level with what is known as Pompey
slope—a mine of the Consolidation
coal company. Near the the village
of Pompey Smash the fire has excited
some consternation among the people,
as the stability of the surface is
threatened. The Consolidation au
thorities are also exercised concerning
the outcome of a most threatening
danger to their moat valuable area.
The origin of the fire dates back
years ago to Spruce Hill, the prog
ress of which has been occasionally
alluded to iu these columns. It
has now reached an alarming stage
and its suppression will tax the skill
of the company. It has not only de
prived the citizens of Pompey of their
source of coal supply, but has proba
bly destroyed the mine of its opening
at this point. The southern slope is
said to he loot. Efforts will probably
be made to arrest, its course, but they
must be prompt and effective. The
damages are already assessed al vari
ous large figures.
Georges Creek Coal— Weekly

The Situation. —Yesterday was
one of the most feverish days of the
trouble. Reports of a break by the
miners at Lonaconing ciroulated
freely. These were corroborated by
the Cumberland dailies, and altogeth
er people did not know what to think
of affairs. ,
A representative of tho Journal
visited Lonaconing and found some
excitement over the arrival of 35
new men for Koontz mins. No dem
onstration was made. Nothing was
heard there of tho rumored break.
Two of the men referred to left at
once, not being satisfied with the ap
pearance of things. They thought
others would follow.
Improvements. —Mr. David Knode
has recently placed a ttone gutter in
front of his pjoperty on Bowoiy
street.
A handsomely painted sign, the
work of Mr. James Hawke, was
swung to the breeze Tuesday from a
pole in front of H. Seymour & Co’s
billiard parlors on Main sheet.
A large brick fluo ban been placed
in tho residence of Judge Armstrong
on Broadway.
A largo barn is being erected on
tho Consolidation faxm tenanted by
Webb Folk.
Tho brick work on the Ravenscraft
building has reached (he second
story.

made iu the lot adjoining the lower
reservoir. It will be used as an ice
pond.
Be sure to register to-day, this
being the lust of this sitting.
New Paper at Piedmont.— The
report cornea from the foothills that a
new paper is on the tapis for Pied
mont. And this, too, before the
Observer is dead 1 There is such a
thing as indecent haste.
A Serenade. —The Arion Band
last Saturday evening serenaded Miss
Mary MoKelty, of Pittsburg, at the
residence of her hostess, Mies Sophia
Smeltz. After several choice airs
had been performed the members
were invited to partake of refresh-
I ments, to which they did justice.
The fair recipient acknowledged the
compliment and afterwards several
gentlemen were ushered into the
parlor where pleasant converse was
had for an hour with the amiable
visitor and her agreeable companions.
School Affairs. — A meeting of
the School Board was held last Satur
day. The following business of local
interest transpired :

The Times says “it will be found
upon locking over the results of the
examinations conducted by Prof. J.
W. S. Cochrane this summer that
every candidate for a teacher’s certi
ficate prepared at the Barton Normal
J School passed the examination, not
I ono failing. These who succeeded
i number eighteen.” This is a testi

of considerable force and value.

cently published directory of the
school board, will bo ol interest:

4, 1882, and will close May 25,1882, giving

are Hon. J. Randolph Tucker, ol j
Virginia, and Prof. H. E. Sheppard, I
of Baltimoic.
Tho colored school-house has been j
recently repaired somewhat with an
outlay of S4O. The building is yet
too much of a barn for children to I
study in during cold weather and its
location is far from being a desirable
one. The colored “people want a new i
school-house and they certainly du- j
serve it.

(iotlHiiniulloil. —lt is said that
50,000 people Dio annually iu the United
States alone from this disease. In some)
sections of the country one death in every i
three is from Consumption. This can be,
and should be avoided; our people are too
caioless about an ordinary cough or cold,
and other symptoms of threat and lung
affections that lead to this disease. You
should arrest it while in the genu. Two
cr three doses of Dr. Bosauko’s Cough and
Lung Syrup will relieve an ordinary cough
or cold. It does not dry up a cough like
many preparations on tho market and leave
the disease behind it, but acts directly ou
the throat and bronchial lubes, removing
ail the phlegm and morbid matter that ac
cumulates in tlie throat and lungs. It al
lays ail irritation, and renders the voice

Pilots are frequently preceded by a
sense of weight in the back, loins and low

to suppose he lias sonic affection of the
kidneys or neighboring organs. At times,
symptoms of indigestion are present, ns
flatulency, uneasiness of the stomach, etc.
A moisture, like perspiration, producing a
very disagreeable itching, particularly at

common attendant. Internal, External and

tion of Dr. Bosanko’s Pile Remedy, which
acts directly upon the parts affected, absorb

A CONTRA mCTfOX.
To the Mining Journal:
TI7TLL you bo kind enough to insert in
I TV jour paper a statement from me
contradicting (as 1 have recently under
stood) a fa se leport Hint has been current
for a number of years among my fellow
workmen, and, I suppose, having been
whispered from one lo another, lias en
larged the number of believers to the det
riment and defamation ol my character,
till silence lias ceased lo be a virtue. In
Hie fail of 1873, my boys ami myself wore
I employed in the New Hope Slope, one of
j Ike Consolidation company’s mines, and
! under Hie supervision of Messrs James B.
| and B. J. Thomas. We bad been employ
j ed there previous to this time, but Hie
I statement 1 dtsire to make concerns a mat
-1 ter which commenced with the above dale,
i Mr. James B. Thulium sent into the mine
for nie lo ccmio outside to sec him, ns ho
| wanted to consult me about a horse that. I
; owned. The result of Hie consultation
I was that he hired my horse lo work in the
] mine. He said it was well oa in the sen
i ton and he did not want lo purchase a
j new horse at that time, and as I have tin
deistood, the following false and malicious
I report lias been in secret circulation all
1 these years, viz; That the company had
j Hie use of my horse without compensation,
on account whored my boys and myself
were getting extra cars at Hie expense of
onij,fellow-workmen. A few days ago I
I resolved to investigate Hie matter and have
I Hie whole transaction made public. 1 re
| quested one ot the company’s clerks to
I ob.igc me by making an examination of
[ Hie company’s time-book of the above date,
and the result of that examination shows
the company lias paid me iu all for work
done by that horse sixty-six ($30.25) dol
j lars and twenty-live ecu s exclusive of his
keeping. 1 know the gentleman that
! made the examination; ids veracity can
not he disputed. I think this testimony
will he enough on the horse question, hut
for the benefit of the curious that may call
on me I can make further explanation, as I
have an idea of who the ungrateful wretch
is these false accusations emanated from;
I hereby certify. That at the request of Mr.
Atckm-kle X examim-d the lime-honk of the New
Hope mine nmt liml tlmt In Mr. MeLm-kle) has
been credited for horse hire In duly, v .g $1.75.
and from Septemhr, is,7l, to April, ls7l. I*ll,llo,
making a total ol* Itki.Vo. Kaunas AMTUoav.
I will go it step further in making a few
statements for the purpose of vindicating
my ch racier as a woiking man. I have
been in and around lids region since 1851,
and I here make Hie assertion and chal
lenge contradiction that in dl my career
as a miner up to the present tune I never
have made to any agent, superintendent,
mining boss, or any proprietor of any
mining work any overture, direct or indi
rect, li.i the purpose ol getting any situa
tion, or any other favor to the Injury of
my fellow-workmen. Wo have raised
eleven of a (amity, I may say, lo men and
women, and up to this day I have never
taken the benefit or defrauded any of my
croditois in any way, and we owe no man
anything iu the true sense of the word. 1
will readily admit my disposition has been
and is to get all I could lor my labor and
to labor for all I cun get. 1 will also ad
mit that 1 have on scy-.-vl occasions held
different opinions from uniuyofuiy fellow
workmen on alleged grievances, and we
have divided at inside meetings to test the
strength of either side and have been left I
in a very small minority ; but when culled
in the presence of an agent to state any
giievanccs, I always tried to have the man
liness to make a statement of our com
plaints, instead of allying from and afraid
to speak to him. 1 Have also at limes dif
fered with my bosses and on the impulses
of the moment have given them very un
becoming language. Now it being guilty
of all thesecharges constitutes a blackleg,
then I am gnitlv of Hie charge. I will
state in conclusion that every tact herein
named enn be verified and proven by oral
and written testimony. What, then, can
bo said of would-be respectable persons
circulating rumors which are untrue, un
just and damaging lo the character and
business of private individuals without
ever investigating to ascertain whether
they are true or false. It is dishonorable,
to say the least of it, and particularly so
when done by persons who are themselves
exceedingly exacting and sensitive about
their own affairs and interests. In truth,
they deserve harsher terms applied lo them,
for they are giving indirect assistance and
encouragement to that large number
among us who ate so dishonest and lost to
every principle of true manhood nslo feel
no shame in not paying their honest debts,
and generally it is tins latter class who de
light to defame the good name or staudi ng
of another.

Recognizing the fact that the relation
sliip existing between the Counties o
Maryland aud the City of Baltimore is
such that residents of the Counties have
occasion to visit the City frequently dur- :
ing the year; in consideration of those
facts and the liberal patronage extended j
the “Maltby" in the past, I deem it hut a
matter of justice Uiai some discrimination
should he made in their favor. 1 have
thereloreconcluded to
Reduccthe Price of Board to $2 a day
feeling confident that the same will bo lully
appreciated by them, aud at the same time |
merit and secure an increased share ol
their patronage. Assuring them that
nothing will he left undone that can add
totlicir comfort during their slay.
