We have received call for conven-

hereby send our regrets to Messrs. "W.
Harrington, chairman" and flames
Ell. Steele, secretary" OF the prohibi-
tionists. With their invitation they send
an extract from The Lining Issue, which
is worth some notice, whatever the
"Living Issue" may be. The extract
is chiefly devoted to showing the enor-
nous strength Of the prohibitionists as
developed in the vote for "Smith and
Stewart" who have been running for
some offices and explaining that they
would have received great many more
votes but for the artful conduct of the
managers of the Republican party.
These fiends in human shape "beeame

however, are laborers and mechanics.
