Brave and Honest Words from the Friends

The Religious Society of Friends
issued lately an Address for Pennsyl-
vania, New Jersey and Delaware, TO
their fellow-citizens on the Use of
intoxicating Drinks, etc. 1t has Il
good ring all the way through. In
deed, if Neal Dow, or Cough, or the
noble workers of the female persua-
sion had uttered the same verbs, the
liquor men and their allies would have
labelled them as temperance fanati-
cism. Have the gentle, peace loving
friends caught the infection! So it
seems.
Speaking of the licensing of drunk
cries lin common plrk'acsa, hotels, sa-
looms, etc.) tile address says: The
plea that 1t produces an important rev.
enue to the State to allow the making
and the venting of strong drinks is
plainly deluSiYe. The cost to the ma
ton, or state at large, to repair the
losses inflicted on tile nation by drink,
must sink the paltry revenues its vend-
ers pay into insignIficance. Statistics
show that it would be far more econ
omical for the Government to main
tain the liquor dealers in idleness, and
forbid their trade entirely, than to re-
celve all the taxes they pay for the
the right to impose the criminals, the
paupers, the oilers, and the diseased
upon the body polite for support. 1t
is not lust nor consistent with the
principles of our free Government to
permit one class of men thus to prey on
the rest of the community, merely for
their pirate gain This whole pas
sage is note worthy; the last sentence
eminently 50. When the people at
large come to take in its mighty i'm
port, then. for certain, tn occupation
of the liquor seller will be done.-Nat

IT is to watch with infinite pain,

footsteps. To watch the dawn steal

mocks the tired heart. To long for

FAILURE OF THE RE-APPoRTIoN-
nIENT SCHEME.

The e-apportionnient scheme was a
very clever piece of gerrymandering
which reflected no credit upon the leg
islatuie. and we had intended to point
out some of its more Objectionable fea-
lures but as it has been vetoed by the
Governor there seems to be no Occas-
ion fer our doing 50 at present The
veto is based upon the omission from
the bill of a town in Iowa county, and
owing to the undue haste of many of
the members to return to their cOnstlt-
uents there were not sufficient num-
Der left TO take action upon the veto
message. Unless a special session
shall he called the legislature of 1882
must be elected upon the old appor-
tionment, and this because of a shame
full neglect on the part of most of the
members to stay in Madison until final
adjournment. But four Senators and
eight AsSemblymen were there when
tie veto was sent in and of course had
no power TO do anything. We are
glad to note that f. l.. ellison was at
his post when the Speakers gavel fell
for the last time.

THE ANTI-TREATING LAW.

The Milwaukee saloon keepers rails
ed such storm over the passage of
the anti-treating law that an attempt
was made to repeal it, but without
success. The proposition to repeal
came up in the form of an amendment
to another anti-liquor bill that was
before the Assembly, and could not be
entertained without suspension of
the rules, which suspension the Dem
oaratic members successfully resisted.
So it appears that though the Demo-
cratic members opposed the enact
ment of the anti-treating law, after it
had been passed they clinched it by
preventing its repeal. An arrest was
made in Milwaukee last week under
this law which complaint it is propos-
ed TO make a test case, and it will
doubtless he taken to the Supreme
Court on the question of It's constitu-
tionality.

Answer to first two questions as
given recently:
l. The Scale is the law of relation
between the successive orders. The
word scale as thus used, is from the
Latin scala, ladder, and has refer
ence to the succession of steps by
which we ascend from one order to
another; thus from units to tens is
one step, from tens to hundreds an
other, etc. Notice that these steps
are uniform, each one being ten. IL
compound numbers the scale is usual
ly irregular; thus from farthings to
pence is 4, from pence TO shillings II,
from shillings to pounds is 20, the
denominations in such cases CORES
pond to orders as above defined.
OLNEY's SCIENCE OF ARITHMETIC.
The Arabic Notation was first intro
ducel into Europe by the .'oors OF
Arabs, who conquered and held pOss
ession Of Spain. during the XI CENTS
airy. It received the attention OF
scientific men in Italy at the begin
ming of the XIII century. and wa
soon afterward adopted in most Euro
pean countries. Formerly it was sup
posed to ne an invention of the Arabs:
but investigations have shown thai
the Arabs adopted it from the Hin
docs, among whom it has been in u.s.
more than 1000 years. From this I'M
doubted origin, it is sometimes called
the Indian Notation. The Roman No
tation is supposed to have been fist
used by the Romans; hence its name.
.. The Radir is the number whit b
it takes of one order to make one Of
the next higher; thus the radix OF
the common system Of notation is 10.
