The Juniala SenJinei and Republican the Only Paper in Juniita County that Sustained President Hayes and the Republicans in Congress. The Sentinel and Republican Defends the Republican Party from the Kear neyism of the Herald, which teas Founded on the Credit of Democrats .1 bused for the Defense tt Made. Who They are that Obtained the Money to Start the Herald. The last great act for the good of the whole country that ex-President Hayes did, was that of the vetoing of the Democratic three per cent re fuwling bill. Resident Garfield in his inaugural sjeech sustained the veto message of Mr. Hayes, end thus there was harmony between the out going and the incoming Republican administrations on the question. There are four papers published in this town. The Sentinel and Re publican was the only one of the four papers that gave support to tne out going and incoming administrations on the vital question of the finance. The Democrat and Register, the Tn bune and the Herald all denounced Mr. Hayes for vetoing the bill, and the Il publii-an members of Congress for having done what they could to prevent its passage. It was to be ex pected that the Democrat and Register and the Tribune would voice, to a limited degree at least, the action of ; the revolutionary Democratic Con gress on the question of the finance, and attack Mr. Haves and the Re- nnancud system. But it was scarce-1 ly to be extxx-ted that the Herald would side with the Democrats and . i i i . i T i i i take issue with the Republicans on one of the most vital joints of the political financial creed of the Re publican party, for the Herald was making some pretensions to being a Republican journal. It however, showed its colors nicely, and revealed itself as much the .Yew Era as when it was conducted in Hendorsonville, Xorth Carolina. The Herald may by the right of its choosing denounce the ltcpublican administration on such vital points, but it has no right to da so and claim to be a Repubii- j can journal at the same time. It has j the right to snle with .Kearney, ana teach that the Republicans in Con gress and a Republican President are putting into practice an anti-American system of finance that is intend ed to make4he "rich richer, and the poor poorer," but the responsibility of 6uch outrageous teaching cannot be covered over by abusing people that expose the outrageous teach- It has tiie same ricrht that Kearney Las to ttm.Ii doctrines, but it has no right to do so under Republican colors, and yet that ls ! just what it uiJ. It made preten sions to Republicanism, and tiaght what was in direct antagonism to its most important political doctrines. It not only proclaimed the boldest of Democratic views out-doing both the Democrat and Register and the Tribune, but it took upon itself to champion the Kearney crowd by inciting the poor against the rich by declaring that certain principles of the Repub lican party are intended to mhke the "rich richer and the poor poorer." The Herald was not content to de nounce the Republican administra tion, but it must needs turn and de nounce the Sentinel and Republican, the only paper in Juniata county that has given support to the Republican administration on the question at is sue, lue Sentinel ana Kepuolican could do only one of two things, namely, allow Mr. Allison to go on denouncing the Republican system of finance, declaring it to be kept np to destroy the interests of the great majority of the people. We had either to remain silent and allow an uninterrupted flow of his Kearney docti ine, or ta!;e issue with him. We never shriuk from pLia duty. We exposed Lis false teaching. In doing so it became necessary to mention certain of Lis personal acts that were connected witu oilier certain puojc acts. His answer last week is just what was expected simply a string of abusive language that proclaims the q-.iahiy of the man that wrote it, and does no harm to the party against whom it was directed. It is the lan guage of the common ruffian. In this country such language is of no use. and has no fores excepting to proclaim the character of the man that eniploya it It is a pity that Mr. Ailison hjj ii-ed fty years, and has not leiirned to know that fact There may be isolated cases of men fifty years of age changing from the bad to the better : but Mr. Ailison Las lived almost fi;ty years, and is yet unable to discuss a public question without becoming personally abusive. He has not the discrimination, or ability necessary to stay by the ques tion and discuss it His inability in variably leads Lim to private abuse, and where there is nothing to abuse in the private cliaraeter, his language reaches the low plain of rib:ddry. His answer is characteristic of the luan that knows no better than to publish that the Republican system, or Northern system of government is intended to make the "rich richer and the poor poorer." The individual history of men in every town and county, in every State of the Repub lic, prove the stupidity or the vicious nes of the men who talk, write and publish such declarations. How many personal acts of Mr. Allison there are. that are connected with public afurs, and are therefore prop er subject for journalistic mention, it is not our purpose now to state. We shall this tune mention only one such act When the Democratic restoration movement in 1876 proved itself a failure Mr. Allison discontinued the publication of the .Yew Era in Xorth Carolina, and came to Juniata county, anu expressea a desire to become a Republican, and also wanted imme diate identification. Being neither "flesh, fish or fowl," he heartily launched out upon a double game, and completely drew the wool over the eyes of some few honest, well meaning people. It was not '"all cry and no wool," bat it was thick wool that he pulled over the eyes of a few Republicans that thought he should be identitied. At the verv time he 1 was applying a liberal supply of wool he was b-ing coached by such Demo crats as Editor A. G. Bonsall, Mr. John "il' tt-r and Mr. Il-nry SalouT. He web iujo-ted into the campaign. His utterances were wild enough to convince Republicans that many such i Democrats of the rank and file as in tended to support the Republican ticket would be driven from their pur pose by his invective. The honest Democrats that heard his utterance sped away in disgust from bis bitter political abuse, and a number of the leaders of the Democracy were highly exasperated at the personal thrusts directed against them, and the circle of Democrats that knew that it was upon the bounty of the credit of Democratic leaders that he issued the Herald were so aroused that they could scarcely contain themselves. He was issuing the Herald on money obtained on the credit of Democratic leaders, and they could not refrain from denouncing his ingratitude. He was pulling, the wool over the eyes of Republicans and screening himself from detection by bitter denunciation of the Democracy. They were Dem ocrats that endorsed for him to get the money out of Port Royal Bank to set up the Herald in Juniata coun ty. The money was borrowed out of that bank to start the venture that was to be disguised under Republi can colors, and yet in the same arti cle that declared that the policy of the Republican party tends to make the "rich richer and the poor poorer," he mercilessly denounces the banks. Indirectly the very bank that he got the money out of to publish the Her- aid with comes under the sweep of his Kearney-like denunciation. Messrs. Bonsall, Mozer and Sulouff were the endorsers, and if Mr. Bonsall does not now carry an assignment of the press and type and fixtures of the -Veic ra j foal J Li Lis pocket-book hs may iOD0er wahiiur for the return of ; " . ' ... the money that he has in ttie concern than tho MuHintcwn School Board has waited for the fund that is due it by the editor of the Herald, for hav ing, by courtesy, allowed him to send pupils from tne township, wliere he lived, to the borough schools. With such a eotrie of Democrats as Messrs. BorjsalL Mozer and Sulouff to coach him it was consistency in Mr. Allison to do his utmost in the Herald to bring discredit on the Re publican system of finance, for they were doing the same thing by their utterance, and bv the publications in the Democrat and Register; but it wa4 the height of inconsistency and du plicity, to say no more, for Mr. Al lison at the same time, to endea vor to appear in the robe of a Republican. How can a man serve two masters. What impudence un der such circumstances to claim allegiance to th3 Republican party, and seek identification so as to secure office. Senator Smiley had the discrimination to discover the enure, and if Auditor General Lemon end Consjressman Fisher have half the ln,er!"unation that the Senator possesses they iisve discovered long before this time the political scheme of Messrs. Allison, Bonsall and com pany. If the personal qualities of Mr. Allison were in a degree com mendatory, his political acrobatic erformance places him in the most doubtful position. The quadruple combination and the characters of which it is composed may be dis cussed at another time. , " The Situation. Senator J. D. Cameron delivered the following speech in vindication of the Republicans in the Senate in their support of Mr. Mahone, United States Senator from Virginia. Senator Ma hone aroted with the Republicans in the organiiauon of the Senate : Mr. President: I venture to in trude for a moment upon the atten tion of the Senate, and I feel reason ably assured that if I do not add to the information of this honorable body, I will not detract from the good spirit which has heretofore marked this debate. Siuce I find that my absence was the occasion of so much eloquence, I am not sorry that I felt sufficiently unwell to ask the honorable Senator from South Caro Una Mr. Butler to take upon him self the double dut? of endurance for a few days. I am back refreshed and quite willing to extend the cour tesy which L received to anv other member of this body w ho may be in need of it and I can safely prondse that nobody on this side of the Sen ate will make speeches in piosi or poetry at the expense of the absent Senator. I cannot, hovever, allow my posi tion or that of the Senators acting with me to be misrepresented, al though done in the best of humor. After repeated votes had established that a majority of the members of this body desired to change its offi cers, our opponents announced by their acts as well as by their words that they had decided that a minor ity of this body was determined to retain the present officers. The issue was too plain to be misunderstood. We said that a majority had a rijjht to decide that question. Our oppo nents said that the minority had the right to decide it I said it seemed then to be a question of endurance. and I really do not see what else it can pretend to be. The general doc trine that the majority is entitled to rule is not caEed in question. The right of the majority of the Senate to elect its own othcers is not called in question. The minority simply says to the majority, "We will not allow you to exercise your undoubted right, because we will resort to dila tory motions, to long and eloquent speeches and to political quotations until you are weary of the struggle and allow ns to have our own wav." We cannot afford to abandon the right of a majority to rule because the minority makes it a mere matter of endurance of how long we will endure dilatory motions and dilatory speeches. We must endare them just as long as the minority choose to intact them npon us. The contest in which we are en gaged is not simply to secure the officers and employes of party friends as the Senators on the other side pre tend, nor is it solely a struggle of the majority to maintain its rights to control the organization of the body. There is something higher than, and above all this ; something the great importance of which .has not escaped the attention of our opponents here. It is the coming political contest in Virginia. The Senator from Virginia who sits nearest me has terrified the old Democratic regime of his State by his courageous bearing on this floor. Thev seem to have entertain ed a hope that with their malediction still rinrrinff in his ears he would for get his own purposes and save bis Democracy by consorting with the enemies of his people. Disappoint ed in their expectation, they appeal to Southern Senators here to so cover him with opprobrium that his follow ers at home will not dare to 6hare his fortunes. The Republicans in this body and elsewhere see clearly that the assaults made upon him here are to pnnibh him for his refusal to obey the orders issued to him. He has committed the unpardonable sin of doing that which his enemies only profess to do. He has made politi cal slavery impossible in Virginia. He has championed the cause of hon est elections. He is about to lead in a final struggle in the Old Dominion for obedience to law in elections. He has our sympathies in this good work. We know his good work in his State is giving to all citizens, black and white, equal rights before the law. In the coming State election the struggle will be a bitter one. I be lieve the right is going to prevail, for the law-abiding citizens of Virginia who were confederates will go into that great contest with the knowl edge that our hearts are with them. Our colored friends in the State will be glad to see that we share their confidence in these well-tried friends, and they will continue to give Gen eral Mahone the hearty support ne bus already earned and received at their hands. All Virginia will see that the great North fraternizes will all ox-confederates in the South who are known bv their nets as well as by their words to be iu favor of an honest ballot and a fajr count The election of Colonel Biddleberger to a responsi ble office in this body will be the beet proof that coidd be given that for all time, for men who uphold the laws the Republican party has confidence, respect and co-operation. We give our votes to that gentleman as an earnest that we are not sectional, and that we have no prejudices on ac count of old conflicts. ' Whoever is right at the present time is our friend, and we are his. This, and this only, is the bargain we have to offer to all our Southern friends who will come out from the party of reaction and grow on with the nation's growth. All that we ask is that they shall stand with 'ns in favor of securing to each lawful voter the right to cast one free and unin timidated ballot and to have that bal lot honestly counted. We know, our opponents know, that if Virginia takes her stand upon that platform the solid South is a thing of the past and this is the trne meaning of the present struggle. J Shad Fishing in Olden Time3. The Berwick Independent publishes a letter written by Gilbert Fowler to the Sret.try of the Wyoming His torical and Geological Society of Wilkesbarre, Pa., on the subject of the shad fisheries along the Susque hanna river in the "olden times." The letter reads : My Dear Sib : Yonr letter request- in 7 me to give your Society my recol lections of the shad lisheri i my early days was duly receiveiL I will do so with pleasure. But hrst lot me premise : I was born February 23, 1(92, in Bnarcreek township, .North umberland county, now Columbia. I write or dictate this letter on my eighty-ninth birthday. I have lived near the Susquehanna river ever since I was born. Mv knowledge and rec- oilections about the eliad fisheries ex tends from WDkesbarre to old North umberland. The first shad fishery near my house was Jacob's plains. This was located just above the town of Berwick and one of the most productive fisheries on the river. Here I have assisted in catching thou sands upon thousands of the very finest shad, weighing eight and nine pounds. The next nearest was Tuckaho fish ery, situated about one and a hitlf miles above Berwick, on the same side of the river. At this place many thousands were caught night and day, in early spring. The next was down the river about six miles from Ber wick. This was the fishery of Beuj. Bjon. At this fishery I have known so many caught that they were actu ally hauled out by the wagon load on Benny Boon's f.nm for manure ; so plenty were they. The neit fishery was that of Samuel Webb, located about four miles this side of Blooms burg. This was an immense shad fishery. From the banks of the river at this fishery could be seen great schools of shad coming up the river when they were a quai tcr of a mile distmt They came in such im mense numbers and so compact as to cause or produce a wve or rising of the water in the middle of the river, extending from shore to shore. These schools, containing millions, commenced coming np the river about the first of April and continued dur ing the months of April and M.y. There was something very peculiar and singular in their coming. Tiie first run of the first great schools that made their appearance in the early spring, were the male shad no fctnale ever accompanied them. In about eight or nine davs after the male had ascended the river, then followed the female in schools, Leav ily laden with eggs or roe. Those were much the largest and finest fibh, and commanded the highest price. Those shad that were successid in eluding the seine and reached the hatching ground at the headwaters of the Susquehanna, after depositing their eggs, returned again in June and July, almost in a dying condi uod, so very poor were they. Many died and were found along the river shore, ihe young shad would re main at their hatching places till late in tho fall when they would follow the old shad to the salt water. Dur ing the summer they would grow from three to four inches in length. The Susquehanna shad constituted the principal food for all the inhab itants. No farmer, or man with a family, was without his barrel or bar rels of shad the whole year round. Besides furnishing food for the im mediate inhabitants, people from Mo- hautango, Blue mountains and, in fact, for fifty miles around, would bring salt in tizht barrels and trade it for shad. Tber would clean and salt the shad on the rivor shore, pat them in barrels and return home. The coaimon pri(e of shad was three and four cents each. Beside? shad there were many other kinds of fowl fish, the most noted among them wxs the old Susquehanna salmon, weigh ing as high as fifteen pounds. The salmon were considered even supe rior to the shad and commanded a higher price. They were caught in seines, on hooks and lines, and were the sport to the gigger at night. Nes copeck Falls, directly opposite Ber wick near where the Nescopeck creek Win intn the river, was a noted place for salmon fishing with hook . , 1 - ll Lauv and line. Jleu standing on me eum c with long poles and lines, would often in drawinir out the fish, lodjre them in the branches of the trees, giving them the appearance of salmon pro ducing trees. The shad fisheries, which I have alluded to, were not common property. The owner of the soil was the owner of the fishery and no one was allowed to fish without a permit Tta owners of the fisheries 'so bad seines and when not using them, they would hire them out to others and take their pay in Boao. The seiner's share was always one half the catch. Shad were caught both night and day in seines. At the Webb-fishery I have known eleven and twelve thousand shad taken at one hauL These fisheries were al- ri cinsidered and used as a source nf Vrrent pleasure, value and profit and evervbodv depended on them for their anuuiU hsn and taoie ssnppiy. It was considered the cheapest and best food by alL Immediately after the erection of the river dams, tue lmd became scarce, the seines rotted. the people murmured, their avoca- tion was gone, and many oid nsuer men cursed Nathan Beach for hold ing the plow and the driver of the six yokes of oxen that "broke the ground at Berwick, for the Pennsyl vania Canal. The people suffered more damage in their common food supply, than the btate pronted Dy her 'internal improvement" as it was called. Although eighty-nine years old to-d I hope still to live long enough to see all the obstructions removed from one end of the noble Susquehanna river to the other, and tliii:. flip nl.l Ktrnam mnv vet furnish cheap food to two millions of people along its banks and tint I may stand again on the shore of tbs old Webb fishery and witness another haul of ten thousand shad. All of which is" most respectfully submitted for the i-oriileratiin of tbe honored Society. which you have the honor to repre sent. Gn.BF.nT Fowlfr. I Verms In Ham aud Sausage. Worms in pork has been a subject that caused a great deal of writing pro and con, within the pat few years. The latest etartling tiiiorwatiou on tbe ub- ject comes by despatch from New l'urk dated March 29 and reada ; A startling discover; was made in llnbi kea to dy in the pcat-ui:-rte:ii examination on the death i-f MrJ. Adolfh Botihols, of No. ill S ashingtcn street. It was found that she had beon literally fal-a alive by trichina:, from the effects of which ahe died Sunday evening. Her bnsband is now siok with lbs same dread disease. They were both taken sick shortly after eating some raw ham, which was pur chased of a neighboring batcher Dr Kudlicb, of No. 1S4 Hudson ctreet was tiie attending physician. A Telegram reporter called at Lis offioe this morning to get the facts of the case. Tbe doc tor said: ''It u a real case of trichinosis and the result of tbe post mortem cm be seen under this microscope." The reporter looked through the glass, which disclosed an innumerable quantity of living aniaialculas. "'was called to see Mrs. Bonhols Gfteen dajs ago," contin ued tbe doctor. "I foaod her suffering from cramps and in great pain. She refused to eat aud onld retain notLing on ber stomach I first tbonght the symptoms showed cholera, but in a few days ber lim ts commenced to swell and disclosed evidences of an animal poison. I questioned ber closely and found that she bad been rating raw bam and sansign, and at once decided that it was trichina;. I did ail I could for her. She gradually declined and died iu great suSering Sunday night. Her husband bas tbe eanie symptoms and is now very sick 1 am in hopes he will live through it, as he is a very stroug man. After consulting with several physicians we concluded to hold a post mortem aod 1 called in Dr. Elder, tbe the Hudson county physicist: Dr. Wendt, the well knofo microacopiot of New York, and others. The examina tion satisfies ns that tbe disease is trich inosis in all its aggravated forms and that tbe unfortunate woman was eaten alive. I have bad sixteen cases of tbis character in my twenty-six years' prac tice in llobokeo and this is the first fntal ca- p. It is the result of eating diseased pork." The medical authori ties of Uoboken are to bold a further examination in the case. Considerable excitement exists over the startling discovery. The late Proleasor Faraday adopted tbe theory that tbe Dataral age of man is 100 years. Tbe duration of life be blitved to be measured by che time of growth In the camel the union takes place at eight, in tbe borse at five, in the lion at four, in the dog at two, in tbe rabbit at one. Tbe natural termin ation is five removes from these several points. Man being twenty years in growing lives five times twenty years that is, 100, the camel is eight years in growing, and lives forty years : and so with other animals. Tbe man wbo does not die of sickness lives every- wnere irom SU to IUU years. Tbe pro fessor divides life into equal halves growtb and decline and these into in fancy, youth virility and age. Infancv extends to tbe twentieth year, youth to tbe bttietb, becase it is in this period tbe tissues become firm, virility from fifty to seventy-five, during which tbe organism remains complete, and at seventy-five, old sge commences to la.t longer or shorter time as tlx diminution of reserved farces is hastened or re larded.
