Juniata sentinel and Republican. [volume] (Mifflintown, Juniata County, Pa.) 1873-1955, 1884-07-30

Last week the Democrat and Reg
lister and the Tribune. contained a
string of resolutions, almost as long
as the platform of the Democratic
party, in regard to the manner in
which the offices shall be divided
among the politicians of the party.
The whole transaction was a long
visaged piece of business, and doubt
less the parties to it laughed behind
the door at the farcical transaction.
The most ludicrous part of it all, was,
that when they had resolved, how
the offices should be divided, they
resolved that the rules of the party
shall be revised. That must have
been intended to dust the eyes of
the rank and file of the party, for if
the committee have the right to di-
vide the offices, they have the right
to revise the rules of the party. II
they had added one more resolution
to the long series which they pub
ished; an explanatory resolution,
something like this, they would have
been better understood by their OWL
people, and by everybody else:
ResolUed, That these proceedings
of the committeeman are farce, and
and a joke on the Democracy foI
their amusement, that committemen
have no right to nominate and divide
the offices, such rights belong exclu
sively to the party by an expression
of a popular vote at the primary elec
ton, and any attempt on the part Of
committeeman to change the system
of nomination except by an amend
ment, to bo submitted to the party
for their rejection or acceptance by
a popular vote, is an usurpation o.
the primary rules enacted for the
government of the party by a major
ity vote of the Democracy of Juniats
county.
- However, this is matter that con
cerns the erring brethren, and be
comes subject matter for Journalistic
comment, as one OF the local public
events of the times.

THE North American says: 4 de

CITY, New York, to the effect that
base ball playing is ''pastime,' and
therefore is not prohibited by the
Sunday laws, may suit the people OF
that section, but it will not be ac-
cepted as satisfactory elsewhere.
The associations of the game in the
public mind are such that an abiding
prejudice against it as a Sabbath oc-
cupation has very properly been ere
ated. Under this ruling any place
of entertainment might with even
greater propriety be kept open.
Base ball playing has become reg

able one, if all accounts can be be

OyE of the most vigorous oppon-
ents Of Blaine, is Harpers Weekly.
Its editor, Mr. Curtis, was a delegate
to the convention that nominated
Blaine, and it is said that when he
returned to New York, that his pur-
pose was to turn the paper into the
column for Blaine, but the owners
of the paper would not allow him to
do so for the reason that Blaine gave
his book to an other house for pub
lication.

MIR. EDTOR.-I would announce the
name of ". C. Pomeroy, of Port Royal, Tor
State Senator. Ia doing 50 | express the
wishes of large number OF Republicans in
this county and IN this Senatorial district.
Mr.. POmeroy, as a member of the LegiSia-
ture. was popular representative. He was
faithful in the discharge OF lis official du-
ties. He voted against the continuance of
the extra session. He voted for an ad-
iournment on every occasion, when be
found no agreement could be had between
the Senate and the House. His course in
the House of Representatives. was such as
to deserve commendation. Knowing the
wants of his constituents so well, and with
his legislative experience, his nomination
would be meIited one, and be TO the best
interests of the Republican party.

OUR FOREIGN COMMERCE.

frequent accusation by our opponents
is that the foreign commerce OF the cOun-
try has steadily decayed under the influence
of tbs protective tariff. In this way they
seek to array the importing interest against
the Republican party. Ii IS a common and
vet radical error to cOniound the commerce
of the country with its carrying trade-an
error often committed inGOcently and some
times designedly-but an error so gross
that it does not distinguish between the
ship and the cargo. Foreign commerce
represents the exports and imports of a
country, regardless of the nationality of the
vessel that NAV carry the commodities of
exchange. Our carrying trade has from
obvious causes suffered many discourage
ments since 1860, but our foreign COM
merce has in the same period steadily and
prod igiOusly increased increased indeed
at a rate and to an amount which absolute
ly dwarf all previous developments of our
trade beyond the sea. From 1860 to the
present time the foreign commerce of the
United States divided with approximate
| equality between exports and impOris)
reached the astounding aggregate of TWEEN
ty four thousand millions of dollars (S2i,-
I 600 ,000, ,000). The balance in this vast
commerce inclined in our favor, but il
would have been much larger if our trade
with the countries of America, elsewhere
referred to, had been more wisely adjusted.
| 1t is difficult even to appreciate the mag
nirude OF our export trade since 1860. and
we can gain a correct conception of it on
/ ly by comparison with preceding results in
the same field. The total exports from the
/ United States from the Declaration of Inde-
pendence in l7I6 TO the day of Lincoln's
election in 1860, added TO all that had been
