Discord in Republican Ranks.
Tho discord in tho republican bul
warks of tho Mate is assuming
luamiini proportions. Tho rupture
in a party ko victorious is an error
unpardonable. Tho aspirations of
Governor Hastings to I lecotno chair
man of tho convention is not meet
ing with any opposition by Senator
Quay or his friends. Governor
Hastings is anxious to havo Kt ill
moro than this at tho hands of the
Republican Convention next month.
Ho asks, yo demands, tho re-election
of Mr. Gilkeson as chairman of the
Htate"cbmmittGo-.- Hero tho' iron tihj
arises. Mr. Quay, too, wants to"o
come tho chairman of the coiuiiif
loo ."V-i y'proHeu'ls'H pretty Bpocta
'clel Tho Governor of Pennsylvania
and a U. S. Senator fighting for the
party leader ship in tho stato I
Surely the Govoruor has mistaken
his position ; he has misinterpreted
tho 211,000 majority given to him last
Fall. Ho imagines that the large
vote is duo to his own personal
magnetism. No, it was a battle for
the supremacy of principle nnd this
explains why tho other candidates
received about as many votes as
Governor Hastings did. It is evi
dent on both sides that the Gover
nor has Btradlod tho wrong ass and
evon if the Governor gains every
thing he asks for at tho convention,
ho is a loser. Ho has already lost a
largo portion of tho admiration and
respect of Republicans and Demo
crats who last November marched
to tho ballot box to voto for Daniel
II. Hastings. If ho persists in his
antagonism to Senator Quay, he
will entirely lose his hold upon the
people even if ho docs control the
delegates. Granting that Mr. Gil
keson is deserving of being re-elected
chairman, ho should not accept it,
much less ask for it. Ho is a pub
lic servant in tho Hanking depart
ment and tho state ueods all his
timo and attention. Mr. Hastings
has mado a good governor and ho
should not cast a shadow of re
proach upon tho intelligence and
wisdom of so many pooplo in the
stato of all shades of political faith
who voted for him. Wo do not bo
liovo that tho Governor can justify
his course in aspiring to political
leaderbhipor even satisfy his own
conscienco that tho courso ho has
taken is a prudent one.
Senator Quay is not entirely free
from censure for errors committed.
but ho is a recognized leader and it
is but natural that ho should seok a
placo suited to his talents, and still
moro natural that the Republican
party should seek his services.
In connection with this battle a
special was published in tho Phila
delphia Jiecord about ton daj8 ago,
purporting to have boon written at
this place to the effect that A. W.
Potter, Ebi., would be one of the
nominees for the Superior Court
bench providing Mr. Quay would
win in the convention. The special
was incorrectly attributed to the
authorship of the head of this pa
per. The message was not writ
tea here but ii ditto! 'hers in or
tier to conceal the ideality of the
author. The truth of 111 matter is
that Sir. Quay madt no trick a prom
ise to Mr. rotter", ?rieitu, though
we sincerely wish e would be able
to -ay that such wis the case.
The fight i on, and wo trust that
wrolonjr the contention will cnase
und that the warring (actions will
have tffocted a compromise satis
factory to both parties.
ow About Dr. PriesUes Grave ?
Tlio North uta'iierland I'reta is
iiuch tilled over
a complimentary
notico g'miu'JinlAown by tho Dallas
J'ost. We concur with our name
sake in its views of Northumber
land's "pretty girl and manly
young men" but we scarcely consid
er tho following extract a deserved
compliment :
"Dr Priestley th discoverer of
oxygen lived there, and his grave is
pointed out to the visitor as a shrine
at which the scientific tourist espe
cially should pause und meditate."
To Northumberland rightfully bo
longs tho honor of having had Dr.
Priestley as a resident. Dr. Priestley
was on eminent scientist and his
discoveries in science will never be
forgotten.
Rut, how about Dr. Pricstly's
gravo f Is it marked in a manner
becoming to a man so renowned in
science T liut a lew years ago we
wero told that tho resting place of
tho late Dr. Priestley was marked in
the most modest w;iy and that his
gravo haa been sadly neglected and
we lire luii lo behove that tuo con
dition of affairs have not yet chang
ed.
We are glad to note that at least
soino of Northumberland's citizens
know about Dr. Priestley's lasting
servico to scionco. Somo few years
ago several historical and scientific
tourists lauded in Northumberland
to seek information concerning tho
scientist's gravo and his luto resi
dence. Tho grave was found in a
Uovo described. Tho house was
found after an extended search aud
numerous inquiries. Tho family
that lived in tho house formerly
occupied by Dr. Priestley know
nothing about a mau by that name.
Northumberland no doubt is
proud of Dr. Priostloy aud his ac
complishments, but it would bo a
very appropriate thing for them to
erect a suitable monument to his
memory and keep hjs grave in an
iuvitim; condition! ' '
Illegal Fishing.
Reavkiitown, Pa., June 24, 1895.
Editou Post :
There is quite a stir amoug our
fishermen on account of the illegal
fishing that is practiced by some
parties about hero. Not only are
the trout caught out of season, but
tho piko, tho only other game fish in
our waters, aro scooped up in good
ly uumbors by that groat extermin
ator of fish, tho scoop-net.
Homo years ago this wonderful not
was in vogue in those partB aud used
so extensively, that tho fish dis
appeared from our streams like the
population of a country that is
stricken with the plaguo. About
three years ago notices, cautioning
persons against illegal methods of
fishing and hunting and fishing out
of season, appeared in public places
throughout Reaver and Spring
townships. Although tho writing
on said notices was very poor t the
spelling of tho Josh Rilliugs variety i
and the purport considered a joke,
they certainly had a desirable effect,
viz : scoop-net fishing was almost
entirly discontinued, aud slowly but
surely, the hsh wore accumulating
iu our stroams. We aro sorry to say
that the scare has worn off and this
summer scoop-net fishing was again
bogun with aparent renewed energy.
Hardly a day passes that tho Mid-
dlocroek is not infestod by these
robbors of fish in squads of two or
more nets. On the 20th inst. a party
of eight from Adams township was
fishing in the Middlocreok with five
scoop-nots. They spanned tho creek
with their nots from shore to shoro
and made quits a good catch in
eluding quite a number of pike.
Such iishiug is cortainly scandalous
aud illegal as evoryono knows, and
should any ono bo prosecuted for
the same he will find it the most ex
pensive fishing ho can do, as tho
penalty is $100. lino and forfeiture
of nets. Tho Penna. Fish Commis
sioners has given duo notice and
somebody will sutler for it, if tho
practice is not discontinued at once.
Our fishermen are thinki ic Ihem-
Bolves imposed upon by thoso would
be fishers and will cortainly make
an example of some ono very shortly
if they will not desist. The onlv
reason for not having done it, in be
cause the penalty is so great that
they would be blamed for informing
to make money, but even this will
not save some one we fear.
