CORNER STONE OF THE CAPITOL -
Great preparations are making for the
laying of the cornerstone OF the State
Capitol, by the Masonic Fraternity, and
the Masons throughout the State are call
ed upon to attend. The gu estion arises,
why this preference given to the Masons
Is it to be regarded as recognition Of
Masonry as the chosen and favored
Order Of the State. Websye thousands
of Odd Fellows, Good TempIsrs, and
members of the Veteran Brotherhood
Why not give them a part in the eersmo-
nies 7? Why not put it into the hands of
the Republican party. or Of the Method
ist or some other Church? Asthe Osp-
i.ol belongs to the people ofthe State. we
fail to see the fairness or propriety Of
granting the privilege and honors Of lay
ing the cornerstone exclusively to the
Free Masons. -lsiA 1ra
