Decide for Himself.

The local slate-making industry has re-
vived and all hands are working full time.
All energy is bent upon the manufacture Of a
slate that will be so well bound and Tiveted
as to enable it to pass through the organise
tion Of the Borough Council next Monday
night and escape without q fracture. Many
believe this result will be accomplished, but,
bless you how amazing have been some of
the results of the industry Even oath
bound guarantees have failed.
Last year there was great competition in the
business-there being seven Democratic, six
Citizon and two Independent manufacturers
in the field, but owing to the passage Of the
Wilson bill, or some other reason, Ave have
retired Still five others have taken their
places and this year there are eight Democrats
and seven Citizens engaged in the industry.
Some people say the Democratic manu-
factuTers viii pull together and have little
trouble in slate making. Others think diff
| ferently. Already two samples Of slate are
upon the market and the HERALD gives the
public the benefit OF them. Here is ono
| President, William Mcclure; Secretary, John

be retained, the fifth (McGuire) becoming
Supervisor and Polish citizen will be selected
| to take his place Oh the force.
This slate is guaranteed by confidential
authority to he oath bound and copper riy-
eted, and will go through the most severe
usage without sustaining even a crack.
But, IL is said, Mcguire does not like the
idea Of giving up the police force and COINS
back to the Superviso,ship, He likes blu
uniform and shining shield. and some Of hi
friends say that he has aspirations to b6c0ul
chief of the police force before ne retire
from public life.
Be Il a as it may, this is one of the rivet
in the slate which is Tegarded with suspicion
by those who have examined the sample
should this part weaken, other parts vii
give way. McG1ireis indispensable, becAus
his brother is one Of the Democratic eight
Should he finally decide that life on IN
police is preferable to keeping the stree

i5very much opposed by First ward membe
Of Council and the necessity of having
vacancy for the appointment of a Polls
poll eman, in case Mcclure wants 70 sta
where he is, will be urged in Casey's direction
Mcclure seems to have the call and upo

seems to hang, but as the few days mu:
ellpse before the organization there is Il
