Elected by a Popular Vote.

The Republican Senatorial Con-
ference for the counties of Perry,
AIiffiin and Juniata, met at the Ja-
cobs House, on last Saturday and Sc
lected Thomas 7. Patton, OF Spruce
Hill, this county, as Senatorial dele
gate, to represent the district in the
State Convention. Mr.. Patton was
chosen by popular vote of the Re-
publican party of Juniata, last Au-
tumn, as Senatorial delegate, and
the Conference, on Saturday, con-
fined the action of Juniata to his Sc
lection, and endorsed him for the
same position. 1t has been some
years since Juniata had Senatorial
representative in the State Conyen-
ten. Patton is a practical man and
understands the politics of Juniata
Henry c. Book, of Mexico, is the Re
publican Representative delegate, he
too, was elected by popular vote of
the party at the poles last fall. Juni-
ata is one of the few counties that
sends delegates that have been elect
ed by a popular vote to the State
Convention.

Moses in the Soudan.

TIE. .7mertean Hebrew, tells some
thing about Moses which is not men
toned IN the Christian Bible, as fol
lows
The Soudan is none other than the
Cush of the Bible, which the Septua
gint and the Vulgate render ETHIOPIA
When Moses had arrived at mans es
tate Egypt was invaded by an Ethio
plan army, which successfully laid
waste the courtry as far &s Memphis
cir despair the Egyptians pray
ed 10 their oraclss for aid and the
advices they received was that they
should offer the leadership of their
armies to "Moses The Hebrew" This
they did. The great difficulty of the
campaign WAS to traverse the roads
which led te the Ethiopian camp, in
consequence of their being infested
with dangerous serpeEts. The willy
Israelite provided his advance guard
with number of ibes liz baskets and
instructed the soldiers to let tie
birds loose on the serpents. By this
ingenious expedient the roads were
speedily cleared and Moses was en-
ablsd to surprise the Ethiopians de
feat them with great slaughter.
Carrying the war into Meroe itself,
Moses then laid siege to the capital,
Saba. The obstinate resistance Of
fered by the defenders prolonged
the siege for some time, but eventu-
ally the city was delivered up by
Tharbis, the daughter of the Eth
opian King, who had watched Moses
from distance. and from admiring
bis valor had fallen in love with him
The story ends happily with the mar
rage of Moses and Tharbis.

In the issue Of the SENTINEL AND

following item appeared:
"All the offices, in this county are
destined to be filed by election, by q

Which item caused the Tribune, of
March 20 to say:
''Smart, that. That's the way they
were elected for the last thirty years.
Franks a prophet, for the Democra-
cy will doubtless harmonize on a
ticket this fall and give it good,

Does the Tribune see its ludicrou
mistake?
1t is a guilty conscience that Il

guilty OF ignoring the will of its par

Tribune claimed to favor the nomins

at the poles, but every time that tn
result at the Primary Election of tn
party to which it claims to owe po

own pets, it conspired to defeat then
at the General Election, by formin,
combinations with everybody that
could reach, and that is how it come
that the typographical mistake in th
SENTINEL AND REPUBLICAN became
thorn in its trading political carcass
