Now that the new Town Council 1s

take vigorous steps to have the borough
sidewalks properly repaired. Some of
the sidewalks in Salisbury are in such
a state as to be a menace to life and
limb. They are a standing disgrace to
the town, the property owners and the
borough officials. If there is any law
to compel people to keep their side-
walks in repair, it ought to be promptly
enforced. We never could understand
why it is that some people in this town
can do just as they please in regard to
making or repairing pavements, while
others, it seems, are compelled to com-
ply with the borough ordinances re-
lating thereto.

When the remarks published in con-

nual statement first made their ap-

were published without the knowledge

For the Consideration of Reason-
able Men.
It is indeed amusing to watch the
tactics of the sham reformers of the
Smith and “Timmie” Scull |
stripe. How they do go for Commis-
sioner Kimmel! And how they try to
work Commissioner Good and Kreteh-
man! Why is it, anyway, that their
dirty attacks are almost exclusively
confined to Kimmel? He has been
singled out as the bogie man, and the !
Scull organ and its Meyersdale organ-
ette make a great fuss about the big
salary he drew last year. They don’t
say a word about the fact that Good :
drew a few dollars more salary than
Kimmel, nor about the fact that Kretch-
man drew but §3.50 less. Why is: this? |
We will tell you. You see “Lucifer” |
and “Tithmie” can’t “work” Kimmel for |
and for that reason they have under- |
taken to annihilate him. I{owever,
they still have some hope of “working” |
Good and Kretechman, and for that rea- |
son they are very careful what they |
say about them. They have—beenfq |
ing for Kimmel rough-shod, but so far |
| their attitude toward Good and Kretch- |
man has been between a slap and a
carass. They are half threatening and |
half coaxing the two latter named
Commissioners, and “Lucifer,” who
| will be well and the fight will stop.

Kimmel." There ought to be a change
in that board, and the best change
would be to make Mr. Kimmel the |
hermaphrodite of the board. Mr. Good
can do this, and only he.”
Do you see the scheme? What “Lu-
