The Iron Works have resumed operations

full time, day and night, Sundays except
ed for one year. which will be quite boom
for this village.
We believe all our friends who have ice
houses succeeded in filing them with fine
quality of ice. The skating was most splen-
did and many of our young friends took
advantage of the sport while the ice lasted.
One young man while skating on McCul
lough's dam ventured toe near where they
had been cutting ice and went in the water
deep enough to wet his shirt collar.
The Glee Club still meets once week

We are glad to report Mr.. Geo. c. Logon

Some origlnal PROCESSES IN Flnance
BY JOHN NJ. BACHELOR.


Under the plan Of "The Iron Hail." a
snpposittious beneficent society out West.
year and half ago the Peoples Five
Year Benefit Order'' organized TO deprive
poor people of their savings in manner
that requires exposure in behalf of those who
are likely to be deceived by it. Recently
this "Order" opened for business at Beck
man St, and branch Office on the corner of
124th st. and Lexington ave., New York
city, where its representative agrees to pay
$500 in cash at the end of five years, to
any body who pays into its treasury $3.50 per
month or semi-monthly during that time.
That is. for about $3.50. this Order contracts
to pay $500.
The officer 10 charge informs the public
that the Order" has already obtained sew
eral hundred thousand dollars from the
unwary, part Of which is deposited with
the State of Massachusetts from which
locality the Order halls
Besides agreeing TO $500 in cash at the
end of years the Order agrees to pay
500 per week for sickness or accident.
In answer to the question how this is
done, the officer said BY the premiums
($10O); lapses. Those who fail to seep up
their paymenis); interest, from to per
cent? and new members, (those who keep
up the ''Order's" income, above its liabil-
ities).
This is worse than any lottery, worse than
any honestly conducted gambling game
for the chances Of recovery for those mem
bers who are at the tail end of the list, is
altogether too small for consideration. So
long as new members continue to supply
this "Order" with sufficient money to meet
matured obligations, it will continue BUSH
ness; when new members cease to be in
duced 10 pay this "Order's" Indebtedness,
those remaining in it will be obliged to
sacrifice everything they have paid in.
Lapses pay some profits, but always at
the expense of the unfortunate members.
Four or FIVE per cent interest on 500 is
something but not sufficient to meet the
''Order's" Office expenses. New members
are the chief supply Of the funds that the
Order contracts to pay out, therefore il
is only question Of time when'the whole
organization goes TO the WALL,
The Order of the Iron Hall, l learn, has
been doing this kind of business for IS years,
and claims to have already paid million
dollars or SO to members but 10 conse-
quence of these payments, new members are
supplying the cash with greater rapidity
than ever, consequently this Order sap
pears TO be in aourishing circumstances.
Should any one seek to learn OF Its total
Liabilities aud the amount OF money on hand
to meet them, existing members might be
somewhat startled.
We learn that similar organizations are
starting up like mushrooms all over the
country.

More Crookedness of the Archer
Kind.

Geo. W. Delamater, late candidate
for Governor Of Pennsylvania, and
his father and brother, we're arrested
at Meadville on Friday last on the
charge of embezzling $4,000 of
county funds They were released
on bonds for trial
Senator Quay moved heaven and
earth to have Delamater elected
Governor. 1t is not surprising that
farmers who pay 80 per cent of the
taxes are getting tired of having
lawyers fill all the public offices and
make the laws and steal the public
money out of the treasury.
