We can prove with mathematical GER
tainty that as much flour as can lie OH the
point of a table knife is more nutri-
ious than eight quarts of the best BIya-
rian beer; that a person who is able daily
TO consume that amount of beer, obtains
from it in a whole year, in the most favor
able case, exactly the amount OF nutritive
constituent which is contained in a five
pound LOAF, or in three pounds Of flcsh.-

The corpse of the old Reliance was rat
tied around at the borough caucus last
Friday evening. It's hard lines on the old
rip, that she can't be allowed to rest in
peace-or il pieces. 1t has been said that
The Reliance was a good engine. So she
is-good for nothing, and nobody yet, dur
ing the period % her %soiourn in our midst,
has so far been able to demonstrate the
contrary. Salem papers please copy.

The borough is to have cisterns. At
least an appropriation has been voted for
the purpose. Here is another opportunity
for Salem. We think that city has an old
secondhand eistern under the Court House
payement that it now has no further use
for. 1t would tickle the Salemites to
death ifthey could unload that cistern on
our Borough Council. We ought to get
it and keep the Reliance in it.

Whatever may be the disappointment OF
any over the failure of our Legislature to
sustain the Local Option law of last year,
yet all can rejoice that the subject has
again been up for discussion. Every de-
bate in every legislative body upon this
subject brings a little nearer the doom OF
the liquor traffic. The steps in every re-
form were indicated By Garrison when he
said: Talking will create zeal: zeal, oD-
position; opposition will drive men to in
quiry; inquiry will induce conviction; con-
yiction will lead to action; action will de-
mand union, and then will follow victory
