RAILROAD FARE TO PHILADEL
PHIA.

We are informed by Mr.. COgswell
that the n. Il. Sc T. railroad will sell
first-class passenger tickets from EN-
poria to Philadelphia, and return, for
$40. The tickets can be purchased
from May 25th to June 4th, and will
be good to use from May 18th to June
25th, thirty days in all. This is a most
capital chance to attend the Phiiadel-
phia Convention, or to so east for any
other business or pleasure. The full
faro both ways would be about $50 or
over, so that the chance to travel both
ways for $40 will be pretty generally
improved. Tickets are sold at the NJ.
X. & T. railroad depot.

FREE DISCUSSION.
The Ballot our Hope.

The Ballot our Hope.
People are beginning to see that intem-
perance is an evil in the land. They see
that it is not well for their sons to become
dissipated, or convenient either to pay for
the sad results OF the work of liquor on
other peoples sons. Our taxes go in great
measure to the support of prisons, asyl-
umns, poor-houses, etc., for which without
the use of liquor there would be small need.
Licenses are granted by our courts for the
mere asking, and even the plain require
ments of law are often badly evaded. Our
new license law is an ungrammatical, lily
drawn instrument, of which the meaning is
not at all clear, and whose author may con-
consider himself happy that he is not in the
Tribune establishment, for III. G. would
address him in some appropriate and vigo-
rous remarks.
The controlling power that whisky exer-
cses in this State is alarming to temperance
men, and to all good citizens. | think,
however, we can call the ballot our hope.
Send temperate, upright men to the Legis-
latue; put only honest, temperate men in
Office anywhere, and the good result will

that means to us low taxes, quiet homes
good morals. Weregard the ballot oThope
