THE Masonic TABLET.

CHAs. I. MURPHY Editor.
j. l.. POWER Asso. Editor and Publisher.
The want of a Masonic journal in Missis-
sippi, has been longtime felt and acknowl-
edged.
There are in our jurisdiction three hundred
working Lodges, and not less than $4,000
Masons; and all without an official organ or
common medium of INSTRUMENTATION
between The brethren throughout the State.
The inevitable result has been that con-
fusionamong the craft has been spread by
the introduction of conflicting opinions and
decisions enunciated through the Journals
published in other Grand Jurisdictions.
That this confusion is more the conse-
quence of differences in Grand Lodge Con-
situations and Edicts, than of conflicting
views as to the fundamental tenets of Ma
sonry is probably truth, yet none the less
to be deprecated
We need an OFFICIAL ORGAN and must
have one We should agree upon and estab-
fish what we may not be asham ed to cal
Mississippi Masonry.
With the view of accomplishing this OBJ
ject, the undersigned propose to publish a
monthly Journal at jackson, to be called
THE Masonic TABEEr-the first number to
appear the LIST of March at $3.50 per annum
in advance, or ten copies fer $12.50, with an
extra copy TO the getter up of a club of ten
or more.
The Lodges, Chapters, Councils and Com
manderies in Mississippi are fraternally in
vited to make THE TABLET their organ. Con-
tributions for the same should be addressed
to DIR. Chas. I. Murphy, Durant, Miss Sub
scriptions, and all other matters of business,
to J. L. Power. Jackson.

EDITOR MASONIC DEPARTMENT: The fol-
lowing is submitted to the consideration of
the Masonic fraternity. Is it good law or
not
Master Mason A. Is indefinitely suspended
by Lodge Il. He appeals to the Grand
Lodge; the case is remanded by that body
for a new trial by Lodge c. Has Master
Mason a, previous to his new trial BY
Loo &c c.. the right to visit and participate
in the proceedings of Lodge B., as mem
Der thereof2
BY the rules and regulations, Sec. 70, it is
provided that sentences of suspension take
effect from the date of infliction.
Sec. "A provides that reservations from in
definite suspension shall require two
thirds vote of the Lodge.
Sec. 76 settles the question as TO restora-
tons from indefinite suspension to MEM
bership. 1t must be asked for at the hands
Oft Lodge.
We are Of the opinion that the true status
of the brother, by our existing laws, is that
he mas no right as that claimed-of partici-
pating as a member in the proceedings of
the Lodge. and that he is a Mason under
charges-suspended once by his Lodge, and
a new trial granted-if acquitted, .he would
be restored to the rights and privileges Of
Masonry, but not TO membership, and
would be q non-afiliate in good standing.
The Grand Lodge, at its Communication
in 1871, settled this principle by vote of
"A to coo. The proposition was directly
made: "That when the Grand Lodge shall
reverse or abrogate the decision of the sub
ordinate Lodge, expelling or suspending a
brother, and shall restore said brother to
the benefits and privileges of Masonry, he
shall thereby be restored to membership
within the body from which he had been
expelled or suspended, without further ac-
ton of the subordinate Lodge"
This direct proposition being voted down
by majority of 535 votes, appears TO US
that the above decision is in accordance
with the letter and spirit of the Constitu-
ton, Rules and Regulations now in force.
See, also, Section of Article ! of the
Constitution, which the Grand Lodge re-
fused to change in 1871.
Please publish the above in THE CLARION,
and, if you have room, transfer it to your
forthcoming TABLET.
