ON THE STREETS THE BURDEN OF THEIR TALK IS THEIR LOSSES—AND SPECULATIONS AS TO WHETHER THE GOVERNMENT CAN BE COMPELLED TO PAY FOR THIS OR THAT. ALMOST ENTIRELY THEY ARE UNCOURTEOUS—BUT THIS IS PLAINLY FROM LACK OF INTELLIGENCE AND REFINEMENT. THEIR CHARGES, TOO, WERE EXORBITANT— HOTELS, $2.50 PER DAY; MILK, 10 AND 15 CENTS PER QUART; BREAD, $1 AND EVEN 1.50 PER LOAF; TWENTY CENTS FOR A BANDAGE FOR A WOUNDED SOLDIER! AND THESE ARE ONLY A FEW SPECIMENS OF THE SORDID MEANNESS AND UNPATRIOTIC SPIRIT MANIFESTED BY THESE PEOPLE FROM WHOSE DOORS OUR NOBLE ARMY HAD DRIVEN A HATED ENEMY. … THIS IS ADAMS COUNTY— A NEIGHBOR TO COPPERHEAD YORK, WHICH IS STILL NEARER TO THE STUPID AND STINGY BERKS.
