be purchased by asking from the pockets
of each of You at the rate of $500 per an
mum, or $15 1000 in twenty-five years, asman
fortune for each of you-and transferring
it to the pockets of Mr.. Morris and his as
sociates.
If you are sensible man in business
these figures must show you why trade is
dull, how you are losing customers, and
how you are being deprived of business ad-
yantages. e-remedy for the dlscontlnu-
ance of this evil is in vourapwn hands.

Immediately, and vote for the anti-lottery
delegates at the primary election on Nov.
TO- Do not let the lottery beguile you into
voting for McEnery delegates or any other
delegate on personal grounds. That is a
trap which they are setting to catch youin.
These so-called McEnery delegates, whom
they ask you to vote for, are either lottery
men, or professed and pretended anti-lot-
terry men, who will vote to keep the lottery
question out of the Democratic conven-
ton. With no anti-lottery plank in the
platform, the minority of lottery Demo
Gratis will then unite with the negroes url-
der the leadership of Herwig and Pinch
back, two of the unnamed associates of
Morris. as the lottery people always have
done in the past, and vote for the amend
ment at the April general election. The
anti-lottery league in your ward will nom
mate candidates for delegates, each of
whom will be true man, pledged to vote
for the insertion of an anti-lottery plank
in the Democratic platform, and by thus
binding the Democratic party as a whole
against the amendment, we will defeat it
in April, and the enormous sum of $1,7s1,
600 of John 4. Morris and his six associates
will go into the retail trade of our city, and
the pockets of our honest tradesmen to the
extent of nearly 5000 year for each and
every one, or $4,000 during the twenty-five
years, thus benefting them and giving
their customers food, raiment, necessities
and comforts, instead of making them,
their wives, children and servants lottery
fiends, embezzlers, thieves and gamblers
This is strictly business, and as a business
man, we ask your earnest and thoughtful
consideration of the subject and then, see
to it that you register, and when registered,
get ticket for delegates from your ward

your friends, relations and customers who
desire to aid you in your business to dothe

SUBSCRIPTION, 50 A YEAR.

The demands of the Farmers Alli-
ance have been so thoroughly discuss
ed within the last year that is now
time to take up each one of the de-
mands and historically treat them and
carefully analyze same. The most
exhaustive treatment OF any one of the
demands is the sub-treasury plan, which
is treated in the June and July num-
bers Of the Library of National Econo-
mist Extras, published by the National
Economist Publishing Co. Washington,
D. G.. 1t gives the origin Of the plan,
the causes for it, and a full and COM
plete answer to all arguments urged
against it. It proves the plan to be
the only measure that will relieve the
depressed agriculturalist that it is not
class legislation, and it is consti-
tutional. These numbers should be in
the hands of every member of the or
der, and every officer of the lodge
should, by all means, be supplied with
a copy.
The publication of Library Of Ma
tional Economist Extras has done
muen toward enl1ghtenIng the people
on the issues now before them.
The Political Ticker will be another
valuable publication. This book has
been prepared with the greatest care
and a very large outlay OF money. It
gives the people the vote on all impor-
tant questions from 1860 up to date.

name of the party with which he affil-

q Heavy Blast.

One of the most terrific and effective
blasts ever made in the extensive stone
quarries at Glen Mills was made the
other day, says the Philadelphia Public
Ledger and Transcript In the face of
that portion of the quarries which is
opened, about eighty yards in length,
nine holes twenty-five feet in depth
were drilled at equal distances apart.
In these five hundred pounds Of dyna-
mite were placed, and all responded to
the touch of the electric button at the
battery, several hundred yards distant.
Hundreds of thousands of tons of stone
were raised and broken by the explo-
sion, many of the pieces being as large
as a freight ear. The arrangements for
the blast being generally known in
that section, hundreds of people as
sembled to see it. The amount of
stone loosened by the explosion viii be
sufficient to keep busy the several large
crushers for many weeks.
