WARNED TO WITHDRAW.
A Scottish Rite which is Not in Favor
in the District of Columbia.

A Scottish Rite which is Not in Favor
in the District of Columbia
WASHINGTON, July S9-The controversy
which is general among the Masonic fra
ternity throughout the country respecting
the Cerneau Scottish rite has eliminated
here in the issue of an edict by Harrison
Bingham, Most Worshipful Grand Master
of the Masons of the District of Columbia,
under date of July 25. pronouncing the
Cerneau organization as clandestine, and
warning all members of that rite that they
are liable to discipline from the Grand
Lodge unless they at once withdraw from
the said Cerneau body. The main reason
for an edict, aside fro other questions in
the Scottish rite, is that the controversy
was started to show that the Cerneau
organization has established relations of
smity and Masonic correspondence with
the Grand Orient of France, governing the
body of Masons in that country, which is
under the ban of at least every English
speaking Grand Lodge in the world, be-
cause the Grand Orient has stricken the
name of God from its ritual. The Grand
Lodges of this country, it is said, have
additional grievances against the Grand
Orient of France because the latter persists
in recognizing thSfaegro Grand Lodges of
the United States.

about one thousand i've hundred miles OF
roads that are feeders and not suckers, but
we must keep on growing. The Northern

To Buy a RsiIroad.

Seattle journal: The apparently very
innocent announcement that the Puget
Sound Shore Railroad company had filed
amended articles OF incorporation, designed
TO increase its power, was made q day or
two since, and excited but little attention.
II seems, however, that there is more 70
the matter than appears on the surface
The Puget Sound Shore would have but
little reason for seeking ~ enlarge its
powers unless IL had some special object IN
view, and that special object Is easily
disceTned. The Puget Sound Shore desires
70 sell its twenty miles Of line and terminal
facilities TO the Northern Pacific, and u Is
at the Instance Of the Northern Pacific
that the action is taken AS soon as
the necessary power is conferred upon the
Puget Sound Shore IL will be discovered
that in jitiy the entire property of that
company Will be transferred 70 the North
ern Pacific. The Northern has long de-
sired 20 own its own inc from Stuck juno
ton into the city, and thinks this an ex
ceptiOnally good opportunity to secure
valuable terminal facilities IN the city. IL
is understood that its first action after ac-
quiring the ownership of the Puget Sound
Shore will be TO take steps toward the
erection of q splendid union depot The
purchase price Of the road is not made
public.

CHICAGO, July 29.-The one hundredth
anniversary of the storming Of the Bastile
was celebrated by the socialist and snarch-
ist societies in this city yesterday. 1t was q
jubilee day for the anarchists. Mrs. Lucy
Il. Parsons, widow of the noted anarchist,
made an incendiary speech, which was
loudly applauded. She said the fall of the
BAstile, while q blow at tyranny, did not
destroy economic slavery. There must be
another revolution-a revolution against
the "bastiles" of labor. The people will
rise and storm and capture those bastiles
and they will bear out the heads of those
devils, the capitalists. on the tops of pike
sume TO rule by the divine right of the
rife and the Gatling gun, the moose and the
prison. You must seize those rides and
those Gstling guns, destroy the gallows
and storm the prisons. You must not
march in the street TO be moved down, but
you must get within the walls and victory
is yours. i say there will be q revolution.
l say you men are brave enough to rise and
put down the tyrants. The revolution
comes; the red flag waves; the bastile falls;
the common people are triumphant, and
history repeats itself.
The crowd cheered itself boarse at the
conclusion of Mrs. Parsons speech. Paul
Grattkau, the well-known anarchist,
echoed the sentiments SO vehemently ex-
pressed by Mrs Parsons.

OLYMPIA, w. T., July 29.-The conven-

proposition to put the name of the deity
into the preamble to the constitution. The
preamble as reported reads: 1--WE, the
people of the state or Washington, to pre-
serve our rights, do ordain this constitu-
tion." Turner wanted to insert, "rro-
fOundly grateful TO an Almighty God, and
invoking his favor and guidance" etc. 1t
was opposed by several speakers as being
unnecessary. Each Of them professed the
greatest reverence for God. but some feared
il might be construed 10 mean a union of
church and state. Sullivan, of Whitman,
caused q sensation by declaring that al
though a good churchman himself he be-
heved it all buncombe, insincere and done
for political effect. The debate was very
heated and the preamble was finally re-
IL rred back to the committee to report
new one. The remainder of the article
passed with little discussion.

replies to many inquiries from pro-

political organizations asking what ac-
ton will be taken by the coming

they represent He says: 81 desire to
say, with due respect to all who honestly
advocate such doctrines, that it is the unan-
imOus opinion among the national green
hackers that the national greenback con-
vention to be held at Cincinnati on
September 18th will confine its declara-
tiOn of principles TO the questions of
restored fraternity and the spirit Of true
American nationality among the entire
people; opposition to the dangerous sec

ing 70 the original contracts: board of trade
gambling making prices for American
farm products; English control of the vol
ume of our money, English capital manu-
featuring or handling the products of
American labor, and to such other ques-
tions as will affect the material interests
and welfare of the American people and

that trade and commerce Is languishtng for
