The Voice of Labor Leaders.
Father Cleary of the c. T. A. u:

Father Cleary of the G. 7. A. U:
The right and proper privileges of
the honest workingmen are in danger
more from the intrigues of the liquor
seller than from the encroachments of
capital. 1t is well recognized fact
that the widespread evil of patroniz-
ing the saloon has much to do with
delaying the settlement Of labor diff
culties, as also of multiplying their
number. If the giant curse of drink
were removed the way would be easy
and plain to a solution of the labor
problem. 1t is not surprising, there
fore, that the leader of the laboring-
men (Mr. Powderly), declares he
would prefer following of one hun
dred total abstainers to one million
moderate drinkers. The laboring
men will never secure the rights and
privileges due to honest labor so long
as the saloon receives a large share of
his earnings"
Speech before the Catholic Total Alb
stinence Union, 1879
Chas II. Litchman:
81 know from the experience have
gained in twenty-three years of travel,
that the greatest curse the laborer suf-
fers under is the curse of rum. Could
we have for use, under the cooper
alive principles inculcated by our Or
ganization, the money spent in one
year for Intoxicating drinks by the
workingmen Of America, we could
control the transportation, the trans
mission of intelligence, and large
portion Of the necessaries of life
81 wish | had it in my power to
destroy every drop of liquid damna-
ton that goes down the threats of
workingmen. | wish l had the pow
er to Danish from the earth all the
scorching hell that robs workingmen
of their earnings, and puts silks and
satins upon the back of the wife of
the rum-seller instead Of putting warm
clothing upon the back of the wife
of the honest worlSingman.
''From selfish standpoint alone
the workingman should be an abstain
err. A drunken laborer is always the
first 'scab, the first to betray our
secrets. | can conceive of no place
on earth where | would not vote for
Prohibition.
al most emphatically advise
workingmen everywhere to vote
against the saloon every time"

NoSBLANKs In THIS COMPETITION.
This is competition of rather an UNI
usual nature. Ii is common TO offer
prizes for the best story, or picture, or
architectural plan, all the competitors
riskining the loss of their labor aud the
successful one merely selling his for the
prize. But the Press Claims Company's
offer is something entirly different, Each
person is asked merely TO help himself,
and the one who helps himself to the best
advantage is TO be rewarded for doing it..
The prize Is only stimulus to do some
thing that would be well worth doing
without it, The architect whose compe-
titive plan for a club house on certain
corner is not accepted he has spent his
labor on something of very little use To
him. But the person who patentsa simple
and useful device n the Press Claims
Company's competition, need not worry
il he fails to secure the prize He has a
substantial result to show for his work
-one that will command its value in the
market at any time.
The plain man who uses any article in
his daily work ought to know better how
to improve il than the mechanical expert
who studies ii only from the theoretical
point of view, Get rid of the idea that an
improvement Vah pV toOsluiplVto uc worm
patenting. The simler the better. The
person who best succeeds in combining
simplicity and popularity, will get the
Press Claims Company's twenty-five hun
drcd dollars.
The responsibility OF this company
may be judged from the fact that its
stock is held by about three hundred of
the leading news papers of the United
States
