De the first occasion ever managed outside of
the golden state by the native Californians

that the membership will reach a hundred or
more. The members intend to ask for admission
as parlor TO the organization of the Native
Sons oil the Golden West as soon as they can do
SO, but owing to the fact that the constitution
of the Native Sons OF the Golden West does not
provide for the admission Of a parlor outside of
California, there may be some difficulty in ad-
uniting the Seattle parlor.
