SENTINEL & REPUBLICAN hlfflintowa-. W , March IT, 1.80. B. F. SCHWEIEIl, IDIT0B AS PCOPKIITOk. Bepublican State Ticket. SUPREME JTDGE. UE UY 6BX, a BoaiaaxFiox cot kit. AUDITOR GENERAL, .iou a. li:mo, or blair cornTT. Last week the Democrat and Regit ter published the following : "Another Republican Board of Commis sioners heard from. Huntingdon county paid on fox, etc., scalp Tor the year 1879, (988.8'. Respectfully submitted to the editor of the Juniata Sentinel and Republi can Tor publication." Just why the Democrat and RegUter referred tne action of the Hunting don County Commissioners to the editor of the Juniata Sentinel and Re publican does not appear. If it is intended to justify the Commissioners of Juniata county for paying the premiums on scalps, then it is right in one sense, and in an other sene it te wrong. If it is in tended to show that a general law exists for the payment of premiums on scalp, and that in other counties than in Juniata large sums are paid for such premiums if that is what the Democrat and Register intends, then it is right ; then it i also wrongy for its justification condemns the censure that it put on the Commissioners of this county for paying for scalps. Either horn will put the Democrat and Register where it does tut wish to be put If it is intended to tell the editor of the Sentinel and Republican that the present Board of Commissioners ttands condemned for paying scalp premiums, then it condemns every Board of Commissioners in the past many years, for the Democratic Com missioners of the past have paid out thousands of dollars for premiums on scalps. If it intended to condemn the editor of the Sentinel and Republican, for publishing the first time that the fact was ever published, that the Com missioners pay only for scalps that come up from the offices of the Jns tices of the Peace, regularly certified to, we must stand condemned for the Sentinel and Republican is the paper that published that Lct to the citi zens of Jnni:tta county, and the prob ability is that if it had not done so, the fact would yet remain unpublish ed. The Democrat aud RegUter should have done 6J years ago, and lifted the abuse that was laid at the door of the Commissioners' office in the past for paving for scalps. Wnen tne editor of the Sentinel and Republican was told, at the beginning of the yetir. by one of the Board of Commissioners ilr. AVilson that the bill for scalps was large, but that the Commissioners could not go back of the sworn certificates from the offices of the Justices of the Peace, we asked to see the law. Mr. Irwi'j, the present clerk to the board, made diiligent search time and ag:iin for the law, but because of the fact that it is not properly indexed in the digests he failed to find it Other parties to whom he applied, failed to find ii ; but finally the desired infor mation came from Squire Lukeus, of Thompsontown. It was Squire La kens, of Thompsontown, who fur nished the information to Mr. Irwin that led to the publication in the Sen tinel awl Republican of the fact that the Commissioners cannot help but pay for scalps when they are proper ly certified to from the office cf the Justice, where the hunter must ap jear with the scalps. It is a most enviable record for the present Board to make, to show to their constituents that they have clean hands, and that if a wrong and an outrage is jn-rpe-trated, that it is done down in the offices of the Justices, with the hunter as the chief manipulator of scalps, hides, and skins. This is a piece of revelation that the Democrat and Register should have made for the people of the county, but it seems that it was reserved for the Bepublicaii Board of Commis sioners to do in the first year of their management Mr. McWidiams is also pleased that the censure that for years Las been hurled at the Com missioners' office for the scalp busi ness has at last been exploded. We have then at the bottom of this most agreeable revelation of fact, the Republican Commissioners, the editor of the Sentinel and Republican, the Clerk to the Commissioners, and Squire Lukeus, of Thompsontown ; and while the Republicans may well be congratulated over the achieve ment of the work of the first year of their Commissioners, the Democracy should return their thanks to the present Board of Commissioners for getting down to the bottom facts in the si'alp business, and thereby make known to the public the fart that the cronkednesR lies not in the Commis sioners' office, but in the lower court, in the office of the Justice and with the hunter. The Republicans have j done that in the first Year of their -r "T , a lministration. Why lid not the . ? .?: krs, a French engineer, Democrat and RegUer sliieU its Com- 18 in thw fDtr-i appears to be missior.ers years ago, bv telling thejlu:te a,,ns to tn-t J plain factsf If the present Board "T8 theKt"mu! f l'an:,,na- keeps on at the present rate of ur. ' an enterprise is to be engaged rt kimrfaMiL and bv their record ! in tl'.e Monroe grille clearly points even null out old Democratic ex- Commissioners from ugly sloughs where they were allowed to flounder as best they could, it will not be a matter of surprise if three-fourths of the Democratic party turn around and vote the Republican ticket at the next election for county officers. If the Republican Board of Com missioners in one year have discov ered that there is something wroDg with the manner of manipulation of me scajp onsmess in uie lower courwof pence. Ibere are too many a something that the Democracy j bloody foreign murderers now in this tailed to e oaring me penM oi tne rule oi tuirrv years, it w some- thing that the Republicans particu larly and the tax-pnyers generally should be well satisfied with, and it should convince them that it is to i their interest to perpetuate tbe rule i of such men, In past days, in the days of the grandfathers, foxes aud other preda tory animals were numerous, and quite destructive to poultry and ounr pigs and cattle, hence the passage of a law that prodded for I the payment of premium by the! Kf n'T UlU """'li and other fckms. The law was pabsedi in 181?. With a few changes the law has remained on the books till to-day, aad to day the man who kills a fos is honestly entitled to the premium. No man who kills a fox need be ashamed to claim the premium, for it his by law, by the usages of the peo ple who hat lived-befor him during the period of seventy yean Bat it is the abuse that has crept in and corrupted the banters, and made the Justices careless. After this there will fje no more hounding of Commissioners on the scalp question, and the attention will be directed where it belongs, down to the office of the Justice, and the hunter who produces the scalps. If the law is no longer of use, the next Legislature may be petitioned to re peal it The present Board of Commis sioners have been guilty of working so many changes that it is hard to tell how many there are, and still more difficult to tell how much good may flow from their work. The sal ary of the Treasurer is not as high as in former years. So with the Court House janitor; so with the Clerk to the Commissioners, and they ceased to pay a certain annual per cent for the re-conversion of the county bonds, and many other things could be mentioned which are not necessary to speak of now. The fact that the repairs on old bridges and the erection of a new one does not affect the important changes and revelations made by the Commis sioners, for the bridge question was one of that kind against which hu man foresight cannot definitely count The S mill boog-a-hoo weighs noth ing against the good that has already been wrought by the present Board, and in the light of the reduction of the valuation of property it seems too trifling to talk about In a few districts the tax collected will be a little above last year, but in other districts it will not be more than last year at 7 mills. For example, take Beale township ; last year the county tax at 7 mills was 975.37 ; this year the tax to be collected in Beale town ship at 8 mills is $1,009.40. There was such a movement among the followers of the foreign Irish man, Kearney, in California last week that the State authority took alarm and notified the general Government of the state of affairs. Troops were t .. . 1 U TV :.. 1 oeuii rum x ihucib u nuu uiuct points. The Mayor seemed to be in league with the Kearney people. However, about the time that it was supposed that the Irishman would be ready to spring his work of mischief, the citizens of the city speedily or ganized and gave the foreigner, Kear ney, notice that his pranks must now stop. The Mayor was also reminded of the probability of his situation being taken in hand if he persisted in giving his moral inthience, or the weight of it, in favor of the hood lum. The Riot Bill brilery case came up before the Dauphin county court at Harrisburg, last week. A number of the men charged with corrupt solici tation in the effort to pass the riot damage bill pleaded guilty, and will j receive their sentence on the z'Jth of this month. A man named Petroff did not plead guilty, and was tried and found guilty by the jury; he, too, will be sentenced on the date alove stite'.L A number of others have not pleaded guilty ; they have given bail for their appearance for trial on the fourth Monday in April u Hlbe is the report of the Demo cratic primary in Fallowfield town ship, Washington county: School House, Feb. 17.

It was the business of the country that caused the trouble, and brought the scandal upon the State. It was not Repub licanism, not Democracy, but busi ness. So when von talk about the Riot Damage Act scandal, donoteon- found it with the politics of the State. out that it must te under tne con trol of American interests. Then why not in the start put Captain Kads, an American engineer, at the head of it instead of tlie French eu gineer. m mi It is said that Hart man, the man who tried to blow np the Cz.".r of Russia, is coniiug to the United States. It is bad tnongh to blow up a house with people in it in time of war ; it is too inul to lo so in times country. " Tub Iowa Legislature has under consideration a bili to alolish the custom of th inking at saloon bars by making it an indictable offense for a citizen of that State to treat another or be treated himself." And that look as if the man who offered the bill has overdone himself. R. Brite Petrtkex and Milton Speer are having a lively Democratic fk'ht on hand. Irishman versus John fihinamari. Xbc Uiirrisb Telegraph of last week published tue foUowing: On .. T, . . Day hxpitfe eat yesterday there passed through this cRy seventeen Chinese on their way to New York and Philadelphia. These celestials have been residing in San Francisco until recently, but becoming alarmed at Denis Kearney's ukase that " The Chinese must go !" and fearing vio lence if they remained, they quietly gathered their traps, aud shaking the Pacific coast sand from their feet they headed due east They were a clean ly set of Mongolians and were quiet and orderly all the way from Pitts burg. In contrast to their good be havior was that of a party of San Francisco Irishmen, who came east from the Pacific slope at the same time as the Chinese. Up to the time they reached Pittsburg the Irishmen and Chinese had occupied separate cars. At the latter point however, they were given a car together, and a gentleman, who was an amused wit ness of the awkward situation, says that it was as good as a circus to see the actions of the irate Irishmen. They stormed and raved and swore at the railroad for pnttiDg the dotn Chinymon" in the same car with white peopla One of the kickers said to the brakeman, " Why, yez might as well put naygurs on the car as Chinymin." Another said he was a retorter and swore by all that was good and beautiful that he would put the affair in Ids note book, and he hauled out of his kit an enlarged and revised edition of a bank ledger and jotted it down for what he called a 'Frisky journal." Finding that they couldn't have Pullman cars on third class tickets the irate haters of the Chinamen settled down and are nurs ing their wrath until they get upon the San Francisco Sand Lots again. The Chinese in the meantime took seats and remained perfectly uncon scious of the breeze their presence had created. As they n eared Altoo na they produced their opium pipes and smoked the sickening drug until they left that city. As said before, while at the Harrisburg depot they lehaved themselves as well as any American traveler ever did or for that matter any traveler of any other nationality. Beecber en Scientific Feeding. Jennie June's Baltimore American Letter.

Men ate because it tasted good; but by and by, when science ball have opened up tbe matter prop erly, we shall have bills of fare in which dishes will not be obscured by absurd foreign titles, bat will be named from tbeir true uses.

Tbe Lost, instead of asking guests to take beef or pudding, will (ay to a leau aud cadaverous visitor, 'Let me fill up your tissue,' or, My dear sir, your bones are brittle ; allow me to pass this compound. Better bones were never made than this pro duces. To some exigent scholar, tbin and nervous, tbe jolly Lost will lay, ' My dear fellow let me help you to brains. U'bat do yon affect !

" 2U1IILIST IIART.WAX. Bow They Tractd the Man Who Tried to Blow Cp the Czar of Ml the tlustiut. It seems, writes a Paris correspond ent on tbe subject of tbe effort to blow up tbe cxar at Moscow, tbat about a month before tbe attempt a man ap plied to a watchmaker aud optican at Moscow for a first class electric appara tua fr tbe purpose ot s ieotiiio exper iments. They were rather expensive, and tbe man offered in exchange a gold watch worth 70. Tbe bargain was agreed to, and tbe niau bunded ov er the watch, gave a fictitious name and took away the apperatus. When the outrage occurred it was found tbat elec tric wires connected the mine with a bouse not far off. Tbe bouse was rum mage J, and in it were found eleclrio butteries and apperatus. It was as certaincd that this bouse had been let and teuauted by a uiati and a woman with a coachman and tbeir horses. On tbe evening of tbe crime the car riage stood equiped before tbe bouse and the coaebmnn in front of it. Im mediately after tbe explosion tbe man, tbe woman, and coachman went off at a quick trot, and tbey were not again seen. Tbe proprietor wbo had left the house to them bad been paid beforehand and did not know them. Tbe electrical in struments, wbicb were recognised by tbe tradesman wbo had sold tbem, were seised, but be bad since disposed of the watch and no trace of it was to be found. All tbe jewelers and watchmakers of Moscow were put on tbe lookout and a few days afterwards one of tbem in formed the police tbat the present pos sessor of the watch wished to f-ell 'it. It waseixed, but no Moscow watch maker remembered having sold it. Tbe police bad it examined from town ti town to St. Petersburg, where it was recognized by a watchmaker, wbn stat ed that be had sold it for eight hun dred roubles to a St. Petersburg lady. This lady declared she bad bought it. j aud that she bad given it to a certaio flartuiao, brother or relative of a per son well known at St. Petersburg. At tbe same time tbe lady banded to the police a photograph of the man. Tbe photograph was recognized by the man wbo bad sold the electrical apparatus and by the proprietor wbo bad let tbe bouse to Lim. Tbe police set oat on this sceut, and soon came to tbe con clusion tbat tbe presumed assassin was in Paris Eustian ageuts were sent here and brought bis photograph, and I bave stated above bow liartman, who also called himself Karl and Mayer, was arrested.
