The American laboring man with

never willingly be brought into

of the Orient, with tLeir different
moral standard and their lower

but who, when a competence is
gained, return to their native coun-
try, taking their earnings with
them.

AN OPEN LETTER.
On the Temperance Question to the
Men of Lancaster and Vicinity.

On the Temperance Question to the
Men of Lancaster and Vicinity.
DEAR FRIENDS
Attic close of meeting held in
the Congregational church last Sun
day evening, the pastors and numer-
QUE representatives of the Methodist
and Baptist churches and others
being present, a proposition was
presented that we form permanent
organization to be known as The
Lancaster No License Club having
as its purpose the development of
no-license sentiment, the conduct of
no. license campaigns and the en-
enlargement and assistance in the
enforcement Of all present laws
restricting the sale of intoXicants
and the securing of new legislation
along similar lines.
Preliminary steps were taken by
80 men who remained after the
meeting for that purpose, and an
organization was effected by the
election of officers.
A committee was chosen to draft
constitution and report at a meet
ing to be held on Thursday evening
of this week IN the lecture room of
the Congregational church at $50
o'clock Immediately after the regular
weekly prayer meeting. 1t is not
our purpose to force any man into
an unwelcome prominence in this
work, nor to compel activity in
service, nor to publicly parade the
fact that he is member of the
body, but we do wish to unite those
who already are in sympathy with
the growing sentiment In favor of
the removal of the liquor traffic, so
that by taking counsel together we
may act for the good of our city in
all it's best interests. We do not
wish to arouse or encourage any
personal antagonism toward the
men who are now in the saloon
business. 1t IS simply fair, bust
ness proposition for us to face,
whether we think it right and
proper to continue our present
public policy in relation to this bust
ness. Therefore with malice to-
ward none and with charity for alp
we cordially invite every man from
10 years old and upward, who is i'll
sympathy with this movement, to
meet with us at $3.50 o'clock on
Thursday evening, at the Congrega-
tional church to complete our organ
ization and plan for future activity.
Your respectfully,
w. H. HANNAFORD.
