There are startling dispatches from the

If report is true, a certain candidate for
Treasurer is going throughout the county,
trying to make votes by teiling the people
that he will, if elected, work tor so much.
Of course be can tell what he pleases, but
lien he advocates the Greenback cause,
he talks, as it were, two ways ; for if the
Greenbackers could succeed, their policy
would inflate prices, and a reduction of sal
ary would become impossible.
Some of the Southern States are getting
Into difficult relations with the Hayes ad
ministration. They blinded the President
on the political side t he was made to be
lieve that their opposition ws owing to
carpet-bag misrule, but a new phase has
arisen. They seem to be as hostile to the
United States government in its administra
tion of purely United States laws to the
same degree almost as they were to actual
carpet-bag rule.
A peculiar cattle disease, that stiffens the
hind-quarters of the animal, and finally pro
duces death, has broken out in Spruce Hill
township. Ten to fifteen bead have died in
that commuuity, no one farmer losing more
than three, as far as heard from at this
time. It is said that when the hide is
stripped off an animal that died from the
etlects of the disease, the flesh has the ap
peal ance of bruised and clotted meat.
A recent circular from the Department ot
Public Instruction at Harnsburg, when
speaking of the issue ot warrants, says:
"None of the warrants issued by direc
tion of the State Treasurer were sent to
the following counties, vix : Blair, Carbon,
Chester, Clearfield, Fayette, Huntingdon,
Juniata. Luzerne. Lycoming, Monroe, Sus
quehanna. Schuylkill, Union, Washington
Tork, Dauphin, Berks and Westmoreland,
(or the reason that such counties have not
paid certain taxes due the Commonwealth."
Democratic orators, and Democratic edi
tofs are talking now to poor people, as to
what the Democracy did for the poor. Well,
that is a good subject, but how about the
Rebellion, which was Intended to enslave
the noor. and which cost three tnousana
seven hundred and fifty million dollars;
and bow about the Wood tana Dill last
winter, which was championed by the lead
ing Democrats, which would have to a still
rreaier items " outened the fires in the
forge, and slopped the running of the shut
tie, and the loom." Then, again, there is a
mountain of claims, Southern claims, piled
up for payment, awaiting a complete Dem
ocratic victory. If you can swallow all
that, you are ready for the yoke.
The Tribune endeavors to create the tm
pression that the Sentinel and Republican
opposes the reduction of the salary of the
County Treasurer. The Sentinel and Re
publican never said anything tor or against
the question, further than te publish the
report that the Greenback candidate had
been out among the people bidding for the
office, so as to secure votes, hoping thereby
to be elected County Treasurer; and fur
ther the Sentinel and Republican said that
the question of salary belongs to the County
Commissioners, and the County Auditors to
adiust, and that if the people of this coun
ty will elect Lemon Treasurer, Wilson and
u.Hii Commissioners, and Degan and
Cooper Auditors, the question of salary can
be settled by them, as they are practical
business men. If the Tribune proposes to
champion Mr. Egolf, the Greenback candi
date. It esn do so, but it is not just the fair
thing, so long as it keeps the name of Kirk
at Its mast-head. Take down Kirk and put
Up Kgolf.

Poor House Communications.
When the Poor House question was
brought to a focus, by a publie conven
tion, and the Commissioners were re
quested to submit the question to the
vote of the people, Commissioner tlron
iuger oast abont for such information as
might be obtained relative to the ques
tion. An answer from Franklin county,
to bis inquiry from Dr. Suumaker reads
as follows :
Chamseessceo, Pa.) Oct. IS, 1878.
Mr. H'm. H. Groninger: Dear Sir.
After a greater delay than I expected
in getting the statistics, 1 am at length
enabled to lay them before jou.
The farm products are included in
the total cost for the several years, and
cannot be bad as separate items. Tbe
steward assures me, however, that tbe
farm, 175 acres, has paid a handsome
revenue over and above all the expense
of working it, taking care of tbe build
ings, keeping up repairs, and tbe other
expenses of furnishing a hsaie for tbe
pour. It bss not produced enough to
feed and clothe all the inmates of the
bouse. There were too many. In 1874
they had 127 inmates, and supported
them at a cost of $8,487.19, or $66.
53 apiece. In 1875 they supported 141
inmates, at a cost of $3,471.13, or $G0.
OS apiece. In 1876 they supported
133 inmates, at a cost of 9,179.00, or
$66.62 apiece. In 1877 tbe support
ed 148 inmates, at a cost of $9,309.62,
or $62 90 apiece. The average cost
for four years has been about $1 25 per
week, and this includes medical attend
ance, care of the epileptic, paralytic,
idiotio and insane, besides feeding and
clothing all. The amounts given are
for total expenses, fatm, bouse, salaries
and all miscellaneous expenses.
Tbe poor are better cared for than
they could possibly be Under any other
arrangement, for the same amount of
money. They have religious services
every Sabbatb, and bave a school for
tbe instruction of both old and young
who are capable of learning.
If tLere was a larger farm, managed
as carefully as the present one is, the
cost to tbe county would be very small.
A number of able-bodied poor are sup
ported outside of tbe alms bouse, and
though they are able to support them
selves in part, tbe cost for them is about
two-thirds as much as it is for tbose in
tbe bouse -nearly one-half of whom
are so helpless that tbey require some
one to take care of them.
Hoping these statistics may still be
of service to you, though late in coming,
I remain,
Very truly xoura,
J. II. SUUMAKER.
Editor Sentinel and Republican : Sir,
Notwithstanding I see communica
tions in your paper in opposition to
the Poor House movement, yet 1 see
no notice of any meetings having
been held to discuss the propriety or
otherwise of having a comfortable
place in whirh to maintain those who
are so unfortunate as to require the
attention and pecuniary assistance of
those more favored in the good things
of this life. I write at this time to
inform you that we held a meeting
last night at Spruce Hill school house
and discussed 6aid object The meet
ing was organized by electing J. r . U.
Long, chairman, and S. A. Graham,
secretary, after which the meeting
was addressed by different persons,
some of whom were in favor of the
movement, and others were opposed
to it, not because they knew whereof
they affirmed, but because they had
heard thus and so ; but those who
favored the movement had the figures
to show that our unfortunate ones
can be kept better and at less ex
pense, by the establishment of a house
of general relief, than by our present
haphazard method, and yet as your
correspondent " Truth." has it, are not
broken-down nor worn-out -omce-seekers,"
who cither expect to be udi
rectors' or "stewards," neither have
thev "axes to grind or farms to sell," as
some would Bay ; neither have thsy
any great amount of money to loan
on "Poor House bonds," but we are
of those who do not know but that
the "rich of this generation may be
the poor" of the next, and we desire
that not only the physical wants of
the unfortunates BhaU be cared lor,
but we think that their mentaL moral
and spiritual necessities, also, can be
better cared for where they can be
fathered together and taught at leaot
o .. . , 1 ,
the common scliool brandies, wiuioui
havinc the enithet of 'pauper cast in
their faces. These last mentioned
items I think are quite as much or
more to be considered than the mere
matter of dollars and cents, and if
your correspondents would calculate
the amount paid to tiiose who now
the "fat office of overseer, they would
find that in a pecuniary point of view
the difference is in favor ot a nouse
of ceneral relief. Take for instance
the poor tax for one year in our coun
ty, and you will find by comparing
figures that by a systematic manner
of caring for our paupers we can keep
them better, and that in lour or nve
rears we can not only maintain them,
bnt our foor nouse iarm win oe paiu
. . -,, 1 : 1
for and the whole affair be in good
working order.
Not wishing to occupy too much of
your space, I forbear for the present

Oct. 18, 1878.
Editor Sentinel and Republican ! Dear
Sir. I would like to have the space to
say a word or two on the Poor House
Question. The Commissioners have
already selected a farm, report says,
at the price of f 16,000, on which the
establishment shall be started. I do
not obiect to the farm or the price
but even if the people vrfmld decide
in favor of a Poor House, they would
not want to have it so far away from
the railroad, which has become the
highway for the tramp. The tramp
mnat bo nrovided for in the winter.
and the tramp should be prevented
from wandering about ; tut so long
p ' J'"
as be la allowed to wander arWnd,
he ifirust be provided for in inclement
weather. Well; now, to have the
Poor House Iota ted away front tbe
line of travel, -would shut him' off
from its protection, and he wotdd
still have to be provided for when h
comes in off the freight trains, and
his keeping wotiQd still go on, and be1
that much mere expense in addition
to tbe expense of the Poor House
establishment: If we must have a
Poor House; let us have it where the
tramp expense can be included. We
cannot afford to run two establish
ments. Nearly all freight trains stop
at this station; and that is the reason
that we hare so many tramps at cer
tain times. If the Poor House is
located so far away from here, it will
do no good in the way of keeping
the tramp. This is an important
matter for consideration, as it in
volves a great deal of money. The
best way is to go to the polls and
vote it all down. It is likely that
with the Court House debt the bond
ed debt of the county would be in
creased to nearly or quite one hun
dred thousand dollars. Are the vo
ters of Juniata county ready to in
crease their debt to that figure. The
question in their hands. But do
not stay away from the polls if you
do not favor the Poor House, for the
men who wont it will be on hand to
vote for it

"You can form no idea Of tbe state of
affairs down there tfulesS you saw it
It is worse than ibd desolation which
follows the invasion of a victorious
army. People who bave run away from
their homes will return to find nobody
to take care of ttietn. Everybody is

A letter was' received in Philadelphia
on last Tuesday from MrSio-on Leob,
a prominent general merchandise deal
er in Col am bus Mississippi. In bis
letter be says. "I returned home by
way of Cinoinoat'i and tit. Loots. From
tbe latter place there is bet one way to
come, namely, by tbe Iron Mountain
by way of Coltimbds, Kentucky, and
Humboldt. Tbere is do ttsda or traf
