LABOR CoYQUERs ALL THINGS
Everything that we do has to have a
certain amount Of labor expended on
it, to bring it to a state of perfection.
However difficult it may appear, how
ever impossible it may seem to be,
remember that if you attack it with
energy, and labor with your might,
your efforts will be crowned with suc-
cess. Inventive man, by the aid and
application of labor, wins for himself a
name that will always be honored,
respected, and remembered by his fell
low citizens. 1t has been truly said
that no excellence is obtained without
labor.
In no country is labor so highly
respected as in the United States, and
the humblest citizen has the chance to
raise himself TO the proudest position
in the Republic, if he will go to work
with the determination TO do some>,
thing worthy of himself. Search the
pages of history, and you will find
that a majority of our great men were
poor boys, and won their position by
their own exertions. What bas been
done can be done again, for it is only
those that work that win. Therefore,
in our journey through life, should
obstacles arise TO obstruct our progress,
let us remember that labor coDquers
all things.

lMPosTERs.-G Master Met
calf, OF Michigan, in his address, in
speaking of tho numerous imposters
now perambuling the country says:
"Some plan should be devised
whereby we may defeat the schemes
and tricks of imposters, and protect
our funds against misappropriation.
Every true Mason is so ready to help
needy brother that he is too apt to
give indlscriminately, preterring to
give even to those he may suspect to
be unworthy rather than cause the
worthy to suffer by his mistake. The
evil is great and growing"
The Worthy Master suggests that
GA convention of the Grand Masters
of the United States and Canada, to be
held once in five years, for the sole
purpose of adopting a system of test
'oords, ETC., for the five years succeeds
ing the assembly of the convention,
one test word for each year; the word,
ETC., of the year to be sent by the
presiding officer of the convention, to
each Grand Master, in time to be pro-
mulgated to all the Lodges in his
grand jurisdiction, on the first day of
January in each year."

The memory of the Oldest inhabi-
'ant does not extend back to parallel
to the uncomfortable cold snap which
overlook this region a week ago, and
which still prevails. On Thursday we
experienced the rare phenomenon of a
snow storm, which has been succeeded
by the most blighting frosts, destruc,
tive in their effects upon tropical vege-
tables. Thousand of oranges, banana
and other tender plants have been
killed, and even where life has been
left in the trunk it is feared the germ
OF the fruit has been destroyed. So
that the yield of tropical fruit along
the gu'f the coming season promises
to be extremely small.
Quite hutter bas been created in
journalistic circles by aIwell-authenticated
rumor that the Picayune is about to
pass into the hands of the "citizen's
Association" If Madam Rumor does
not falsify, this change promises quite
arevclution in New Orleans journalism,
and the Inauguration of a New Era in
that branch of literature-one that
will be hailed with delight by the
reading public, and particularly the
poorer classes--the Era of cheap new
papers. Hitherto the journals in this
city have been vended on the streets
and in the news depots at ten cents
per copy. Under the new arrange
ment the Picayune is to be sold for
five cents, and the subscription rates
lowered in the same ratio. The vari-
Gus other papers with one exception)
have signiied an acquiescence in the
reduced scales and all of them will no
doubt come down to the same figure.
The "Citizens Association" under
whose management the Picayune is
about TO pass, is a combination of
wealthy and prominent citizens-the
solid men of the city who pay the
bulk of the taxes, and naturally feel a
deep interest as to show the money
goes The association was organized
for the purpose of keeping a sharp eye
on public officials, both state and mu-
nicipal, and of testing the constitution
ality of all laws of doubtful expedien-
cy, especially these calculated to aug
ment the already burdensome taxes.
They have a sub-association denomi,
mated the Committee of Fifty,one,'
who act as kind Of smelling commit
tee, exercising strict surveillance
over the conduct of public officials,
and inspecting the books and accounts
of the administrators of the various
departments of the city government.
They have been very efficient in check
ing fraud, unearthing any corruption
and punishing official malfeasance
when brought to light. With the
powerful weapon Of an influential
newspaper organ, they will no doubt
prove still more efficient, and make
themselves a terror TO evil-doers.

The SENECA SANDSTONE FRAUD.
Each day brings to light some fraud
on the part of the corrupt men in
power, or adds fresh particulars.
Mention has been made of Grants
little speculation in Seneca sandstone !;
and now this matter is again receiving
fresh ventilation at the hands of Com
gress. 1t has become known that the
stone used in the foundation of the
new State Department has been very
much damaged by the winters frost.
This is Grants Seneca sandstone, and.
Mr., Getz has introduced a resolution
in the House authorizing an investiga>
ton into the reasons which led the
architect to use this sandstone for a
foundation when the committee dis
tinctly prescribed granate as the mate
rial to be used, and also as to who
authorized the substitution of this
stone for the kind the committee
directed to be used. OF course this
step on the part of Mr.. Getz was
resisted by one of Mr.. Grants most
shameless partisans, but it was all in
vain, the reasonableness of the inquiry
was so apparent that the servile menu
ber was left standing alone in the vote.
1t remains TO be seen what little trick
will now be resorted to, TO retard or
stop this investigation. If all fail,
Grant the pure, honest, malgned
Mr.. Grant-will stand forth as the
foister of inferior stone upon the peo-
pie for one of their most stately public
buildings tho new State Department.
Thus will the frauds of Grant ami his
satellites one by one be exposed to the
public eye, and receive the censure of
public opinion, and when the time
shall come for the people: to say who
is to be their next President, it is to be
hoped that they will cast their votes
only for truly honest, upright msn-
,citi te,O relations. - Courier Jolrnai

was admitted to the bar for the prac-
tice of law IN 1922. A ycar later he
removed to Auburn and became the
law partner Of Judge Miller whose
daughter he atferwarl married. About
1890 he was elected to the State Sell
ate on the anti-Mason ticket. After
this he became a Whig. and in 1894
was defeated by Hon. W. s. Marcy
for Governor of New York. In 1898
he defeated Marcy for the same posi-
tion hy heavy majority. In lS40 he
was again elected to the Govcrnorship.
In lS49. he was elected to the L. s.
Senate. and was reelected on the ex-
piHtion of his first term. On the
