When the memorial to the Grand Lodge 10 found
this fund was prepared by James Herring then
Grand Secretary, and signed by the men who
pledged and paid the initial amounts IN token
of their sincerity, Frecmasonry was just
covering from assaults made upon 10
by powerful and persistent opponents. The
fund increased slowly and surely until about tho
year 1868, when, IN the opinion of the Grand Lodge.
it had reached a sufficient to authorize the fra
ternity To begin the erection of the building. The
ground was purchased, the plans approved, and. ON
June 3, 1870 the cornerstone was laid by James
Gibson then Grand Master with appropriate Masonic
ceremonies.

tBY rELEGRAPB TO TRIBUsEI
COLUMBUS, June 2.-Since the defeat of Judge
Taft and the nomination and acceptance of ex-Gov.
r. B. Hayes opinions as to the effect are so conflict
ing that il is not easy TO Judge how far the ardent
declaration Of opposing elements are justified by
facts Doubtless Gen. Hayes will prove much
weaker than Judge Taft would have been in
Hamilton and CuyahOga Counties, and will
fail 10 bring 10 the support of the
ticket a portion of the German Liberals in
those counties which were disposed TO support Judge
Taft Some believe that the same element will be
affected in like manner elsewhere, while others fully
believe that throughout the country districts, and
even in Lucas County Gen. Hayes will unite the old
Republican strength fully than any other can
didate As TO the rural districts generally, this
seems probable, if many prominent Liberals here,
especially from the northern part of the State,
not wholly mistaken. The nomination urged
with very unexpected strength by the rural dis
tricts, and a very heavy majority for il on the re-
serve il expected. The Third Term has no friends.
Everybody seems to rejoice that the Convention has
so unequivocaIly declared itself that question.
The complete omission of the temperance issue
displeases the extremists of both sides, but
was the best thing possible. The strong
point of the platform, upon which, it is declared
the main fight will be made is the declaration
against any division of the school funds OF alliance
between the State and any sect This issue raised by
the Geghan bill Republicans eount upon certain 10
give them than the old Republican strength.
The financial and tariff resolutions excite little re-
mark. On the whole il may prove that
the nomination of Gen. Hayes is even stronger
than that Of Judge Taft would have been, though
II throws the brunt of the battle upon Cincinnati
and other cities in which the German Liberals have
been powerful. In Ohio. as elsewhere, Democratic
misconduct will greatly help the Republicans, and
the conduct of the last Legislature s eensured with
great feeling to its craftsmanship and corruption,
by many who have recently acted with the Demo-
Gratis. While there is wide diversity Of opinion be-
tween the friends Of the candidates. there is much
evidence Of determination and confidence. Repub-
hcan partisans generally look upon the election Of
Gen. Hayes as altogether probable, and many who
have not been partisans take the same view
