to cause comment, but his latest move
in buying one of the Oldest churches

Of worship into a saloon, the likeness
of which does not exist in this coun-

The First German Methodist Church
was established half a century ago. It
adjoins his brewery, and has for a
long time been greatly desired by the
brewer. so he paid a handsome price
for it, and the congregation moved
into another home. The building is
now being transformed into saloon.
In the basement where Sunday
school was formerly he'd, a beer vault
win be established, the Old chancel
being used as the bar In the audi
tOrdum Of the church proper, a banquet
hall is being fitted out. and where
the altar was there is now being erect
ed a stage for the entertainment Of the
guests who may meet there.
The beer vault will be fitted out in

ENCOURAGE THE ENTERPRISE.
If Delaware City can secure an e.ec-
trio railway connecting it with New
Castle and Wilmington, 1t should grasp
at the opportunity and give the pro-
motors OF the enterprise all possible en-
couragement Every community has
ultra-conservative citizens who are
ready to block everything which is
good and modern; while it has others
who are liberal to a degree which is
a1nsost as harmful to the public and
privats welfare. But between them
there is a class which balances the two.
and It is upon this class that the safety
and welfare OF a community largely
depends. INSTRUMENTATION deprived
tbs town of Smyrna OF the benefits Of
the Delaware railroad, and Clayton was
the result. It lis growing rapidly and
prospering. while Smyrna, situated on
a short line to the eastward, feels more
and more, year by year, what short
sighted policy 10 was to drive such a
benefit away.
In dealing with the application Of the
promoters Of the Delaware City trol-
,ay road for the use of roads and
bridges, the Levy Court commissioners
should first OF an satisfy themselves
that they and the road commissioners
have legal right to grant such com
cession under the terms CT the general
corporation act They have in John N.
Rodney a safe legal adviser. IL he has
demonstrated to their satisfaction that
they have no such legal right, that
should end the matter. On the other
