A. O. q. W.
The great event of the past week in this
order was the meeting of the Supreme
lodge at Helena, Mon, where some matters
of importance TO the Utah brethren were
discussed. 1t was resolved to make Utah
2 separate jurisdiction, provided that by
January /, 1898. the order in Utah should
number 1900 members in good standing
At present there are l,600 in the territory
and great effort will be made to get the
requisite additional 400 by the time fixed.
1t would be a great thing TO have this
as separate jurisdiction. The running
expenses would be much less and the life
insurance system could and would be
worked so that the premiums would be re-
duced something like 80 10 40 per cent.
Every member should work with this
object in view as he individually will be the
gamer
The Supreme lodge officers paid very
pleasant visit TO Salt Lake and were highly
pleased with their reception and with the
city in general, full accounts of which
have already been published in THE
HERALD.
