4 PAPER.
The .T4aU NOrE Tribune
The Largest Circulation Among the Best
FOR 1881.


People.
During the past year the New York Tribune
reached the largest circulation it ever attained with
The single exception of short period in the first
Lincoln administration. 1t is larger circulation,
and more widely distributed over the whole country
than any ev.r enjoyed by any other newspaper in
the United States. This fact may be taken as the
verdict of the American people on the Tribune's
political force, its fidelity to sound principles and
its merits as Il newspaper.
For 1881, the Tribune will try to deserve equally
well of the public. What and how much it did for
the success of General Garfield it is content to let
earnest Republicans tell. 1t now hopes to give to
his Administration discriminating support as eff
fcctive as its efforts for his election.
The Tribune will labor for, and it confidently ex-
poets the incoming Administration to promote,
free and fair suffrage South and North, sound
crafty in Internal improvements and Civil Service
conducted on business principles on the theory of
eleyating, not of ignoring or degrading politi
Every citizen who helped to bring in this Admin
istration should watch its course The events to be
recorded in the Tribune for 1881 will therefore have
a peculiar interest The year promises besides to
thing to solidity; and whether the Democratic party
after twenty years of disloyaty and defeat will
dissolve or reform. Abroad it will show whether
England can compose ireland; ; whether the Repub-
lie in France, without the support Of the leaders
who established it, can stand alone; whether the
Turk can longer pollute Europe In Science it
promises such practical triumphs the use of cleo
trlcity Tor gas, new modes of heating, and new
forms of power in place Of steam. In Literature
and Art it offers the very flower Of our nineteenth
century Development in Religion, concentration
of force, and union Of organization simpler creeds
and better work.
No intelligent man will be willing to live through
the year without reading of these things; and he
will be wise to look for them in the journal which
has long enjoyed the distinction of the largest cir
culation among the best people. This position The
Tribune secured and means to retain by becoming
the medium of the best thought and the voice of the
best conscience of the time; by keeping abreast of
the highest progress favoring the freest discussion
al Si alinoo o1u ~
lgence and the purest morality, and refusing to
cater to the tastes Of the vile, the preudices of
the ignorant.
The well-known special features of the Tribune
will be seduousy maintained. Its A Agricutural De-
partment will remain the fullest and best. The
Household and the Young Folks Department. the
literary scientific and religious features the stand
ard market reports, will all be kept up and as op
portunity offers, extended.

A Model Railway.

Robert Coleman ofLebanon county, this
state is the owner Of the great Cornwall
iron estate and is immensely wealthy. Mr..
Coleman destroyed palace half built
when his young bride died, a year ago,
and her embalmed body was brought from
Paris to be entombed in q maus oleum in
the shape OF an Episcopal cathedral, that
cost quarter Of a million.
Since the death Of the yonng bride the
griet-strlcken widower has paid much at
tention to machinery and engineering.
He had a building erected containing a
single large room, with high ceiling and
freScOed walls. A circular roadway, ,witha
double line of steel tracks, extends around
the room. Patent safety switches, cleo
trio crossing signals, safety frogs and the
latest methods Of fastening rails are in
use on this playhouse railway. The total
length of the track is about $50 #, double
track and two sidings. At one end is
a roundhouse, with turntables that oper-
ate automatically. Three miniature loco
motives are employed. Every piece Of
mechanism, every rod, bolt, screw, lever,
these locomotives. The boiler jackets,
rods and driI Iers are nickel-plated, and
some of the bright work is silyer-plated.
The cabs are Of solid walnut and the boil
wrought steel. The tenders are of cop
per, and their water supply is taken by
scoops from vats on the roadway while
the locomotives are in motion.
The locomotives are about four feet in
length, including the tender, and are
models Of beauty. They are Of English
design, SO far as high driving-wheels are
concerned, otherwise they are advanced
American mechanical ideas and have ma
ny original appliances of Mr.. Coleman's
invention.
The locomotives are fired up and set in
motion. Around the tracks they 60,
while the the millionaire owner watches
the miniature machinery. Hours are thus
passed, all sorts Of experiments are tried,
high speed and low speed are compared
to determine the comparative effect of
friction.
To develop his railway ideas, Mr.. Cole
man has determined to build and equip a
road extending from the Cornwall estate
to the Pennsylvania Railroad, a distance
of about twenty miles. In all probability
this road, for it's size, will be one Of the
best equipped in the country. 1t will car
ry the iron from Cornwall furnaces to
market over a shorter route than IS now
in use.

FERMANAGH TOWNSHIP,
Nov. 26, 1881.

Nov. 26, 1881
Editor Sentinel and Republican:
With your permission L Will say a
word to my fellow-citizens Uf Juniata
county on the subject OF free county
bridges across the river 1t Is to the
highest financial interest that no free
bridges across the river be erected
or purchased by the county, for the
reason that the tax that will be re
CURED to be collected from the prop
erty-holders in a population so small
as that in Juniata county will be a
burden that viii become oppressive
1t is but few years since Alifiiin
county went into the free bridge
business, and already it has cost her
the great bulk of one hundred thou
sand dollars. and until the day comes
when her bridges viii again be vaca
ted they will be constant drain upon
the industry of every man that owns
a foot OF property within her bordtr;
and when the property holder Is op-
pressed he hires less help, and in that
way the oppression is felt by people
that own no property.
fhe cost of repairs will be great
drain every year, and the first cost OF
the purchase will be equal to the cost
of the building of the Court House.
But the Indebtedness cannot be de
creased like the Court House indebt
lness; repairs viii keep up the ex-
penses, and perhaps be like IN aliffiin
county. increase instead of decrease
them. The three bridges in this county
could not be bought for less than
100000. Men cannot be made to
give their property away to the State
or county They must be paid for 1T.
If the population of Juniata county
is IS, 900 it would require over three
dollars from every man, woman and
child in the county to pay the first
cost. But the advocates of free
river bridge at Miffiintown say that
only one free river bridge is desired.
So it may be at the head of the pres
ent movement, but Port Royal and
Thompsontown people may think dit
ferently. and if free bridge is crea-
ted across the river at Miflilntown
why should the people in the vicinity
of the other towns named not have
free bridges The time is here now
for the people of the county to send
in their protests, so that the Court
may act intelligently in the matter
when the question comes before 1t,
and know that the men that will have
to pay for the bridge do not want q
free bridge am certain that the
men that will have to bear the bur
den of taxation that will be necessary
to create free bridges are against
the wrong that is proposed to be put
upon the general public of the county
Property in counties that have large
indebtedness is never SO valuable a'
where the debt is small.
