The Odd FellOaCs' Iemple.

So long as the Odd Fellows continue
in their efforts to compile the country
Lodges to assist them in building a
Temple, just so long will none be built;
for the country members refuse to sub
init to what they rightly term "a base
imposition" Why should those resi-
ding in Harrisburg be taxed to erect
a building in Philadelphia, where only
their representatives will meet, and
but twice a year? They might with
justice say the Temple should be built
in Harrisburg and the Lodges in this
city contribute towards its payment.
What howl of virtuous Indignation
the fifty thousand Odd Fellows in this
city would raise if such plan had
been proposed. Yet they coolly say
to their country brethren "Give us
your money and we will build the
Temple here r'-CITY ITEM.
