The Temperance Orders.
The executive committee of the Grand
Lodge Of the Good Tempiars of the state
Of Washington met in Olympia on Fri
day ana Saturday, April II and Is, and did
routine business. The announcement in
Seattle paper that decision in the
Fourth district case would be promulgated
was incorrect, as that decision was made
about March Is, and notice was served on
the 18th that the Fourth district charter
had been revoked. 1t was also announced
officially that John Bushell, district CHIEF
templar of the district. was expelled from
the Grand Lodge. This does not carry
with it expulsion from the order of Good
Tempiars. though the decision of the
grand chief templar upon a question sub
mitted was that it was a violation of the
obligation of Good Templar to vote for,
urge, aid or abet the surrender Of the
charter of Good Tempiar lodge, with a
view of replacing it by any other organ
ization. and that lodges would be justified
in refusing visiting privileges to members
commonly reputed to be thus offending.
