A scrRyY Trick.

THB following from the. Pittsburgh Adso-
cate shows the despicsbie m-sIs rsscrted TO
by the enemies Of the Labor Reform Move
ment in that city last Tuesday morning. to
defeat the Workingmen's candidates:
The enemies Of the Labor Reform party were
very active yesterday and several days before in
collecting Labor Rsissm tickets for the purpose
Of destroying them Thousands Of our tickets
were seenred merely 70 be tera into pieces by
the contemplate tools Of the opposition A
large humber Of scamps called At our Office for
tickets and obtained them under the pretence Of
carrying item TO certain precincts in the cities
and county, but the tickets were no sooner OBJ
tanned than destroyed by them. On this &C
count, 10 number Of precincts, Labor Reform
tickets we're not to be found until late hour in
the day, and then only AFTER having been carried
there by voters, who, regardless Of the coLtemps.
ible trick sought TO be played upon them, we're
determined TO vote the Labor Reform ticket
Had our tickets been properly managed, the La
Dor Reform vote would be not less thsn two
thousand stronger than il ID to-day.
