The circular starts with saying: There
seems TO be unmistakable evidence Of an
organized fight 10 be made on our Order by
its enemies through such newspapers as
can be bought or influenced. IL IL impossi-
BILE for us TO tell when paper has been
bought or influenced, because those things
are generally done In secret. The only way,
therefore, that we have OF judging 10 which
side paper belongs Is by its utterances.
There are paid correspondents who hatch
up falsehoods on the officers and the works
of our Order, and publish them in
number Of email or obscure papers at tho
same time; then all the papers that are In
the ring copy the article and express their
hypocrisy and malice by sighs OF pretended
righteous indignation. These lies are
invariably made from whole cloth, and have,
in no case yet reported, had a shadow ot
truth on which TO rest. They have up To
date been hurled at the chairman
