The CANAL. Advantage has been taken of
the low state of the water in the streams, to
draw off a portion of the canal between this
town and Millbury, to clear out the bottom and
put it in good order for the fall trade. In con-
sequence of this, VIC have had no arrivals or
cearances for week past. We expect the re-
pairs will be completed and the navigation re-
newed in few days. From Milbury, down,
it has continued unobstructed, and there have
been several boats to that place from Provi-
dence during the last week.

VERMONT ELECTION. The recent election in
Vermont shews Gminution of the strength of
the Jackson party in that State. We have
seen returns from 50 towns, including those
the votes stood, for Gov Crafts, Republican,
5657, for Allen, (Anti- Masonic) 2277, for Doc
little, (Jackson) 1893. There will be but 25 or
80 Jackson representatives in the whole State,
which is but little more than half the number
they had last year.

! ReSotred, That all secret societies, tShicl
have tor their object, or which are calculate,
to obtain, some benefit which the people gen
orally do not possess, are unconstitutional an.
ought to be suppressed
Res0tUcd, That all secret societies. which
have 1t IN their power to obstruct the regria
( administration of justice, are subversive of in
dlvldual rights, dangerous to civil liberty, anC
incompatible with our civil institutions, anC
| ought to be prohibited by law
Resotoed, That the oaths, taken and admin
lstered by Free Mssons, as made known to III
by seeding masons, are extrajudicial, ex
tremely 2rofane and unlawful. And we hold il
to be truth, which cannot be controverted
that no man. or body of men, in this country
have right to administer oaths, unless author
ized by some existing law.
ReS0tred, That Free Masons are DISQUALIFIED
by their masonic oaths, TO act impartiaIly, as
Judges or Jurors, where mason is party in a
criminal prosecution, and where mason and
an antl-mason are parties in civil suit. And
that there is good reason to believe that the
strange and unaccountable verdcts returned by
Jurles, and the equally unaccountable non.
agreement OF lurles, were occasioned by the
influence of Free Masonry.
ResOtred, That we will not give our votes
for Free Mason to any office, and will oppose
any OF that fraternity being in the jury box, as
the most effectual way to drive that monster OF
iniqulty, free masonry, from the land
ReSoLoed, That we believe the secrets of ma
sonry to be before the world, and that any per-
son who dsbelieves the fact, must be grossly ig-
norant, or completely hoodwinked.
ReSOL0ed, That the silence of Free Masons.
reSDeclinT IF
except by denials and blackguardism, is con-
elusive evidence of the truth of such disclo-
snres.
ReS0tred, That we view with pity those Free
Masons who say that q" Morgan's Illustrations
oil Masonry are not true, and that Morgan was
not murdered" And we view with mingled
emotions of disgust and contempt, those who
say that =" Morgan was murdered, that. it was
right, and that it was no more than he deserv-
ed"
ResOLoRd, That those conductors of public
newspapers, who publish accounts of horned
frogs, oouble-headed calves, and the kidnapping
OF negroes, and suppress information relating TO
the kidnapping and probable murder of a free
white citizen, are not entitled to our confidence
or support.
RESOLVED, That we will use our utmost exer
lions for The suppression of all secret societies.
while we live, unless the members of such So
cleties shall satisfactorily show to US, that the
principles of such societies are not inconsistent
with the genins of our government and the
rights of Individuals

WORCESTER:
WEDNESDAY, FEB. IS, 1929.

REvENUE. The refusal of the Legislature to
pass law for the assessment of a tax TO meet a
portion of the expenses Of the State, and to
preventive further accumulation Of the State
debt, is subject of almost universal remark
and apprehension. So far as our observation
extends, the public voice is almost unanimous
in favor Of such tax as will meet the deicen-
cy in the revenue for paying tho current ex-
penses, and afford something towards the grad.
ual extinguishment Of the debt which has al
ready accrued. We lave never heard differ
ent opinion expressed by any ono who was not
member Of the Legislature
Since, however, it has been decided that no
tax shall be laid, il is no more than reasonable
to expect that the Legislature should provide
for the exigencies of the State by revenue to
be drawn from other sources. The people will

Resulted, That while we would treat our
masonic friends with the utmost courtesy and
respect, we are under the painful necessity Of
giving il as our opinion, that the masonic in
stlluilon is one. which involves principles and
obligations which are inconsistent with, and
contrary to, the plain rules Of our holy Rellg.

THE MASSACHUSETTS CLAIM. Colonel
Drayton and other members of the Military
Committee in Congress have several times
given notice of an intention to take up the
claims on day named, but their intention
has been uniformly defeated by some other
subject being in possession of the House.
We learn that the chairman of the Commit
tee is anxious to bring it forward for con-
sideration, but it is extremely doubtful
whether it will be done at the present ses-
sion, which is now drawing near a close.
The intermediate debate on the Cumber-
land road seems likely to defeat every other
measure requiring any discussion at the
present session.-BoSton Advertiser.

The Bill for the more speedy decision OF
ciUI actions" mentioned in our Legislative
Journal is one which was originated. we believe,
year or two since. 1t provides that in all ac-
tons where the amount in controversy is not
more than 800, the judge may, with the con-
sent Of parties, decide on the question of fact,
without the Intervention of jury. Whether
such an act will be productive of the benefits
anticipated from it by its friends, can be dcter-
mined only by experiment. We are willing it
should be tried, although we are aware that
there are some strong objections to it.
