CALL FOR 4 DELEGATE CONVENTION
to be held in this city Tomorrow afternoon.
Members OF the association in this city
were aPPrised Of the meeting early in the
evening, and last night appointed their
delegates There will be representatives
present from all over the West
The object Of the convention could not
be learned, bu. it is understood that Presi.
dent Wisr has q scheme which will soon
terminals TIE strike. Ire uailers, although
anxious to return t. YORK after an idleness
OF niue months, do not favor the soapro-
mise scale One Of the objections is thst
the feeders will insist on their demands.
The feeders are paid By the nsilers Under
the compromise scale, the Iailer receives
20 cents per key OF lG,penuJ nails.
EACH EEG CONTAINS 6. 400 NAILS,
and for each nail the feeder is compelled
to make o movement with both hands. For
this work they claim that u! cents is email
enough pay. If they insist on their de-
msnds the mailer will only receive II cents.
a mailer, however, IS able to run toSr
machines, ana csn, therefore, earn four
times that amount. They will not consent
to the demands Of the feeders, and il il is |
insisted upon, cannot accept the terms of
the compromise scale. This matter will be |
the most importsct business before the
meeting tomorrow. The convention will |
be held in Siebert's Hail on Penn avenue |

THE DOMINANT ELEMENT

in the affairs Of the world. Ifitis not cor.
rect to say Christianity has invented the
steamboat and the railway, il is true that
outside OF bible lands there is not, and
there never was country on the globe
that possessed a railroad, a telegraph, q
postofice, banking system, free gov
eminent, or wise public charities. Where
the Bible has not been given to the people,
civil liberty has found no air to breathe.
The secular value OF this book has never
never been recognized b. those who have
enjoyed the benefits which follow in its
wake. Viewed from a purely economic
standpoint, the Bible and the religion it
teaches are the best and cheapest safe
guards of the nation.
Speaking of the reforming power of the
Bible he said:
I'VE do not claim that makes men
angels, not always even saints, at once;
but its constant, universal, persistent ten
dency is to lift men. 1t has extended this
power ever since il was given to the world,
and it is doing the same to day. Its eff:
feet is as sudden as it is radical. The
drunksrd losthes his cups; the blasphemer
becomes devout; the hcentious man grows
pure in thought and life

for past favors, and will spare 40 pains to
merit continuance of their valued patron,
age And to all those who, from whatever
cause, may have gone elsewhere, we would
be pleased to renew our business acquaint-
ance, and will endeavor to merit your conf
