Prohibition
Party

To Town, County and State Com
nittees:
Your success in securing votes
will depend upon the convictions
of the people. The truth must
reach the great masses through the
printed page. The problem is
how to get this matter into the
hands of the people.
The National Headquarters offers
some assistance in solving this
problem.
We furnish documents of the Sc
ries of 1885, new, adapted to the
demands of our time, and entirely
courteous in their tone, at the fol-
lowing low rates:
Eight-page documents (similar
in size) sent directly from
this Office to individuals in any
part of the country in single copies
or more, as may be desired, for four
dollars per thousand. All that is
necessary is to send US the names
and post Office address OF the per-
sons to whom it is desired to send
and to pay four dollars per thous-
and for those sent. You have no
trouble except to furnish the
names and addresses. 1t is easy
to see with what little difficulty
documents can be sent to every
person in community.
Four-page documents of the same
general appearance for two dollars
per thousand. These documents
embrace the latest arguments upon
the subjects, covering the living is-
sues of the year.
They are the unanswered and
unanswerable documents which
mus, in one form or another con-
stitute the material with which
we are to do our work. We trust
that all who are interested in the
Prohibition propaganda will give
attention to this offer and will no
tice what a help it will be to them
in their work.
When you remember that you
cannot send documents into the
next town by mail unless you pay
at least eight cents per pound, and
that we can send them from this
Office to any part of the United
States at one cent per pound, and
that we can print them cheaper
than you can, to begin with, it
will be seen that we offer advant-
ages of a very high order to those
who are seeking to scatter the
truth in reference to Prohibition
among the people. We are able
to do this only because as pub
Usher of periodical entered as
second class matter at the post
office we have the right to pound
rates on Extras" These tracts
as extras" of The REASON, can
be circulated at the prices named,
but only from this office. Hence, the
insistance on sending in the
names and postoffice addresses,
whenever it is desired to send doc
uments directly to individuals by
mail. When it is desired to dis
tribute from hand to hand in Clubs
or other places, only the number
wanted and the distributor need be
sent.
We hope our intelligent friends
in all the States will take pains to
inform township and comfy COM
mittees Of this opportunity. The
large page, double columns, reada-
Bile type, good paper and first class
matter are within the reach of all
with little pains or expence.
