IT hat They Say About Stone
Ctal on Shade Mountain.
Sba.ls mountain that borders the
north Bids of Juniata county, east of
the riror is a bigger mountain in the
minds of a cumber of people than
ever before, owing to the fact that a
practical stone coal miner named
Jjong from the Shamokin coal basin,
came and dug a number of holes in
"Middle liidga," on tho mountain
north of -VcAlistervillo and about a
half milo west of Adnm;;burg road
Long it is said prospectod from
the Snyder Co. sido of tho moan
tain quite a while and finally came over
to the Juniata Co. side and employ,
ed four men and took thara uyto tho
north side or slopo of Middle llidge,
and there put thoin to work digging
holes btraight dovrn. It docs not
mutter to tho reader how mvjy holes
he dug, but the last ono reRtud on a
bottom of black or very dirk shite.
When tho workmen struck that he
ordered them to quit work, and de
clared his purpose to xu!t "hunting
for coal," until after harvest.
That was three weeks ftgo.
The belief among practical miners
is that Long found in thai dark rock
or slate what ho was lookitig for, the
certain coal blossom.
Practical miners believe that coal
exists in the mountain, and when one
tells them that geologists say thore
is not a pound of pure coal on the
mountain they point to
the s:e.N3.
They are the same kind of stone
that lie about on the mountains over
at Shamokin, and about I'ottsvilie;
tho same kind of trees and bushes.
There is the eongdomorfk rock.
Thore aro the name kind 'i pebbles:
The white pebble, the red pe bble.
The same kind of sand out of which fine
grains of coal irrny bo washed, aud
the salpher pebblo, the same kind of
water, and the Btimo kind of dark and
olive colored slates or Ehale?, and
with all these Eurfaco signs, how
can anyono who has the money to
push the work fail to finding coal?
As to the Geologist, they take wo
stock in him. They say ho don't
know what is under the ground as
well as tho man who has worked
among rocks, and shalos, and sands,
and pebbles and stono coal all his
life. Tho practical miner looks up
on the geologist with a sort of piti
ful disdain, and thinks ho might
cudgel his head, and expand his en
ergy with more practical things.
The miner believes that the geologist
does not know what be is talking
olout.
The geologist bolievos the same
thing of tho minf r, but concedes it
that tho miner knows coal when he
sees it, and if a goologist Lad been
wi!h Long and his workmen when
they prospected for coal en Shade
mountain three weeks ngo he would
Lave slid Mr. Long
THE SIGNS
"that I read in these rocks, sands
and shalos here indicate that the
place to dig for stone coal would be
several miles overhead and that there
is nothing abovo r.s but tho blue Ekv
The material above us where coal
once cxinted has all been washed
away into lower levels and into the
octau. N hile it is true .this moun
tain in point of height is probably
well ui'h unto a thousand fi-et above
the val;r y, in the geological scalo it
lies deep under tuo valley, and by
some convalsion of nature was push
ed up to its present height. '-Lis-ton,
my miner friend, oa aceount of
the dimes and dollars, I wish it might
bo as you believe it to be, but what
1 have learned tells me that tuis
mountain is tho lowest formation in
Juniata coutlv while it seems to bs
the highest and in that particular it
is to you a grand and mnjestio de
ceiver. You have mistaken its form
ation, its rocks, its shales, its sands,
for the rocks, fehaks aud sands of tho
coal measures that aro high above
any rocks in Juniata.
Let me tell you.
Sbado mountain is a formation of
Conglomerate rork, Medina sand
stones and shalos, and Utica slate a
formation that combines the uuiting
place of thj gcol-'giesl mtr.suro of
tho Lower and Upper Sillurian per
iod of creation, where tho lowest or
der of life tii st mnnifestrditf-elf in the
living things without backbones in
the water and mud of that long past
age. The impressions of tho shells
of the back boneless things .may
ha found in htoncs and rocks and
slutos of the formation. It is tho
Utica slate in tho mountain where
you stopped work 20,00.) feet below
stono coal.
You can hardly believe it that Mif
fjintown, which is located among the
highest strata of the Upper Sillurcan
formation or period ia the geolog
ical scale is at least 4000 foot higher
thfin Shade mountain. MilHintown
ia 4000 feet nearer coal than where
you are when you stand "on Middle
liidgo on Shade Morntain.
If you draw a center lino oast and
west through Juniata county, the
highest formation is fotmd ia Ile-r
ronbone ridge and near Spruce Hill
and Eist Salem, and east and west
from those named placod aud is in
tho D.-vonian formatiou or gronrj in
which dame nature, or speaking ra a
more orthodox way Divinity produc
ed the fishes. In the rocks of this
formation the geologist goes to find
tho impression of fu.ii. This forma
tiou if geologists are correct is sever
al thousand feet higher than where
.VlifUiu is located, and is at least G000
foot higher than Shade Mountain,
and of course that many feet nearer
tho cool measures.
But we must go up in the geologi
cal scale higher than the Devonian
formation for coal, up into tho Carb
oriferous formation or group where
Diety produced tho plant, bat tho
plant producing formation, ths Car
boniferous group does net exist in
Juniata county. You cannot gather
coal from a formation where it does
.tot naturally belong, any more than !
you can in the vegetable kingdom
gather figs from thistles.
-"ow my minor friend yon perhaps
do not believe all that, and it is your
right if you choosa to disbelieve it,
and push it all aside as the dream
and fiction of book men, and the on
ly satisfactory thing for you to do ;is
to go on digging until you have sat
isfied yourself.

The Democratic Primary Election-
The Democratic Primary Election
in J uniata county will be held on
Saturday, July 25, present month,
and it promises to be a political
storm of cyclonic proportions and
lorco on account of. the number and
ardor of the seventeen candidates in
the field.
A'l are at work with their coats off.
For President Jndrre, Patterson
and McVaen, are making one of the
closest canvasses ever before mode
for the primary nomination in the
county, and the political household
is divided on these two men all ovsr
the country. Patterson has most of
the leaders of the Regular wing of
the party for him, but hero and there
a leader cf the IJcgular forces of the
Democracy are against him and are
hard at work for McMeen. Of
course no one knows to a certiinty
which of tin eandidatoa will win, but
if the regulars give a tullerably fair
support to Patterson he will defeat
McMeen. There aro certain busi
ness interacts it ia said that are
thicker than water that it is claim
ed by some of tho brethren, is at
work for McMeen. It is claimed
that the horso ring regardless of par
ty lines is for McMeen and will be
for him to the end if ha wins.
For Register and Recorder with
fow exceptions the situation is the
some as that kfor President Judge.
The Regulars at e for Jenkins end the
Irregulars are for Berry, but Berry
has fewer of tho leaders of the party
with him than are identified with
McMoca. Berry's friends exoress
the belief that he will have a walk
over for tho nomination. The
friends of Jenkins put ia tho eauio
claim for him. 7hea the old sol
diers are thus divided in their opin
ion, Low oan tho marines tell any
thing that is reliable about the out
come of the battle.
For Sheriff tho contest is a tri-an-
guiar battle with llackonberger lead
ing with mere visible demonstration
than his other two competitors.
VauOrmor's friends ure working: hard,
and pulling on what they declare is
the availibility string that VauOrm
er lives in the powerful Republi
can district of Favotta and f jr that
rt-aooa he should bo nominated.
There are others, however, who in
sist upon it that Johnson will carry
off the prize; that ho ha s the Bis
markiau political qualities that can
not bo downed.
For Associate Judge th?re are sev
en candidates, aud that number is
sufficient to so be-smoke the political
battie-ne!d tuat tha wisest outmders
cannot toll who the loaders are goiug
to rally for. Jacob Suloutt' is well
acquainted throughout tho county ps
one of tho prominent businos3 ircn
of a quarter of a century ago, and
many old friends are talking favora
bly of him. Absalom Barnr is be
ing pushed by his friends on account
of his political aliliations in the low
er end. Gf.orga Fink.lt i3 claimed
has chances on account cf Gxtonaivo
political acquaintance John Wise-
haupi 8 frie-nds are urging him
as a new njan in the fiold and on ac
count of the central locality in which
he lives about the same argumont is
put forward m favor of Jacob lieirn-
baeh. Jame-3 .Mliiken it is urged is
one of the strongest mon in the fiold
on account of relationship, party af
filiations and location in a strong
Democratic locality. If the leaders
can quiotly concenlrato their in
fluence on anv of the two of the sjv-
en named candidates these two will
carry tho nomination easily.
For Jury Commissioner there is
little interest manifofted and Boll
and Bealo will drift with tho current
and whichever one is known to bo ia
with the winuing candidates for tho
higher offices on the homo stretch
wiil be the winning man.
For County Chairman there will
bo a raval battle between Frank W.
Noble, present Sheriff and D. B. .Vc-
llliams, who at ono time was the
Democratic nominee for Congress in
tLo 18th Congressional district. No
bli is a political champion of high
order. The sains may be said of
McWillismfi, and the chips have been
knocked off of each others hats, and
the battle is joined and being viewed
with great interest by tho voters of
Juniata, for the battle this year is
confined to the ranks cf the Democ
racy. The Republicans having made
their nominations without a contest
for any of the offices. All Juniata
peopla are earnest spectators of the
battle that is going on between the
Democratic Gladiators.

New York Press: You can got 100
cents on tho dollar for any claim you
have against tho government in the
form cf paper promises to pay,
yet the Democrats are howling that
there is a bankrupt Treasury. Is it

fidence in the stability of ths govern-
mnt finances, brinj on a panic and
rain the whole country merely for
partisan profit? It looks like it, bat
the game will not work.
Governor Pattison retoed the
Judicial apportionment bilL The
bill created 9 new Judges in the state.
Tbd general opinion is there are too
many Judges now, or rather that the
judicial district are too small that a
jadge could attend to the business
of 20,000 in or o people and not be
worked hard. Governor Pattison is
of the same opinion for ia his veto
of tho bill he says.- "I am of the opin
ion that there is such a goneral re
cognition of the mistake made in the
multiplication of Judges that, if it
wero to bo provided for anew, the
population requisite to a separate
district would bo greatly increased.'

From the Fitt.bnrg Despatch.
No mac ever forgets the impression
his first circus made upon him when
a boy. Nor does he got so old as to
despise tho smell of tho sawdust or
coauo longer to take ploasuro in the
enter tahimeut of the ring. About
one of the oarlie3t recollections you
cm go b-.tck to is usually your first
circus; perhaps the elephant has our
earliest memories. I never see an
elephant now without thinking of tho
firtt elephant I saw wheu a child.
I can dato nothing back of that ele
phant. Nor can I dato back iu my
younger days farther than the first
circus ,oii3 of those old fashioned
kind that had one ring and one
clown that broke so gloriously up
on my boyish vision. Wocu I see a
man who says he don't caro anything
about a circus I think Ibrro is eome
thiag wrong with him. Yet tho cir
cus in this elay is as widely diff-rent to
that we first saw as ono thing of the
ssme kind could bo fro:a another.
Still tho aroma of tho riDg and the
animal cages is about the same to our
nostrils. A visit to the great circus
of Mr. Frank A. Robbins, will recall
tho happy days of our youth, and if
it gives ua no pleasure noiv, evan
that is suflicient to induce our annual
attendance upon the circus.
