LIFTING THE DRBT.
Everything Indicates that the v NJ. G. A. is
To be FREQ from the Burden.

over fourteen thousand dollars rails
cd towards liquidatins the debt on the
Y. NJ. c. A. and less than four thou
sand to be secured.
The amount already subscribed is de-
pendant upon the whole amount-eighteen
thousand-being subscribed. That the
balance will be forthcoming goes without
the saving. for the value of the Y. NJ.
c. A. is so thoroughly recognized by the
people of Richmond that those who have
not been afforded an opportunity TO join
the list Of subscribers will esteem IL
privilege TO aid I'm the contamination of
such move.
The debt. which has hung like a mill
stone around the association, and ham
pered its every effort for good, once
removed the organization would in
crease in value and good works. Without
the burden Of the annual interest it has
had to pay it would take on new life
and be self-supporting.
Mayor Ellyson has called another meet
ing OF citizens for the purpose Of wip-
ing out the burden. as follows:
Mayors Office. April %. 1894.
To every citizen OF Richmond who feels
an interest in the welfare of her young
men:
You are cordially invited to attend a
mass-meeting 10 be held in the Assembly
room Of the Chamber Of Commerce to-
morrow Tuesday afternoon at half-past
o'clock.
The object Of this meeting is TO com
plete the work so successfully begun Tor
the extinguishment Of the debt on the
building OF the Young Mems Christian
Association Eighteen thousand dollars
Is needed 10 accomplish this purpose, and
OF this amount fourteen thousand dollars
has been secured, but the payment OF
the subscriptions already made is condi-
toned upon the whole amount being
obtained.
The work OF the Young Mems Chris
tian Association OF Richmond is the best
argument that can be given for a gsner-
Gus response when 1t appeals for help.
There is no other organization that is
doing so grand work for the young
men OF our city, and II deserves the
liberal support Of every good citizen.
Come 10 the meeting. Let the grace
Of giving abound and so testify our
hearty appreciation Of the work that is
being done by the association for the
promotion of the welfare Of our young
men.
Yours truly,
]. TAYLOR ELLYSON.
Chairman.

OF its effect on the liquor traffic, the
action of the Chicago & Alton in regard
to liquor drinking among employees, is
one or the most important steps ever
taken toward the suppression of the
saloon. When the saloon is deprived Of
customers it will die. Nolegislation viii
be necessary. Should ali the employers
of labor in the United States follow the
example Of this railroad and the en-
ployes submit to it, it would be but a
little while till it would be hard to find
a saloon. They couldn't live and would
be compelled to close their doors The
great aim Of the prohibitionist would be
accom- plished without legislation and the
liquor question would disappear from
politics. There ID only one thing stand
ing in the way Of this solution Of the
problem and that is that it might
precipitate a revolution. There is
no greater power or one more firmly en-
trenched in the country than the liquor
interest, aud it stops at nothing when it
is assaulted in a really dangerous manner.
