A CHANCE FOR GLORY.
CARLYLE, Sept. "a, '88

CARLYLE, Sept. "a, '8S.
Editor Register:
Considering the slur you cast on the
Union Labor party in publishing an
article signed "Subscriber" in your is
sue of the 18th, don't you think you
are. preserving a ':golden silence"
about the Union Labor convention
held at lola the next day, Saturday
the 18th, the delegates to which were
elected q week or more before that
day?
Now, Mr.. Editor, a plain statement
Of the U. L. facts is enough to knock
both the Rep. and Dem. tariff theory
silly so far as it benefits the working
classes, and to prove my faith by my
works. (while I cannot claim to be a
speaker) I will meet in joint debate on
the tariff question, any Rep. or Dem.
high or low tariff reformer in Allen
county. As the people can find out
nothing from either the republican OF
democratic press but tariff and plead
poverty when asked to pay for U. L.
papers.
Anyone wishing to take this up can
give one weeks notice through the
REGISTER, and not mail a letter one
day asking for meeting the next as I
might not get it In time,
Yours Respt.
ARTHUR E. BRIGHTLY.
P. s. Hope you may depart from
your "golden silence" rule long enough
to publish this.
