The necessary vote to carry the amend
ment was II. 1t received rs. and under a
proposition for vote by rolcall an ad-
Journnent was taken amid much excite
mPnt.
In the afternoon the election of officers
came on at once.
From the opening day there had been a
canvass going on looking to this election,
OF course. and two names had stood side
by side for the first ulace, those of Kierce
of San Francisco and HaskiDs Of Southern
California.
i. j. Sheehan made the first nomina-
tion speech in behalf Of Kierce. He said
that all Of the early presidents of the
Grand Council had been chosen for their
aggressive, pushing quaiites-the neces-
slty Tor such qualities being felt. Then
came time when they felt the need of a
conservative man, one who would con-
cllIate and mold together. That man had
been found IN Mir. Murasky. He had done
his work well. and now the order felt the
need OF another pusher and builder at its
head, and the man who could best answer
the demand was f. j. Kierce.l
I. Il. Morris and James Gallag CHER sec
onded the nomination. Mr.. Morris spoke
in high terms of Mr.. Klerce'S work on the
board o directors.
Mr.. Gallagher said he spoke for South
ern California in advocating Mr.. Kierce.
Then Mr.. Haskins-thea other most con-
splcuOuS candidate-arese and seconded
the nomination. and the act created such
enthusiasm that it was fully three minutes
before he could proceed. Cheers were
given for Haskins and three more for
Kierce and tiger for both. Mr.. Haskins
said the order was indebted TO MIR. kerce
for the great work he bad done. but the
Grand Council would elect him its presi-
dent not for what be had done bat for
what he would do-as the right man in the
right place. On his motion Mr.. Kierce
was chosen by acclamation.

fitting speech. saying be would visit every
jurisdiction.

it," feel more competent to reply to,
90 I have given this subject considerable
thought and made special study OF tho
condition Of the farmers and other of
our industrial classes, the causes thst
have produced the present deplOrSbe
and disgrsceful condition (diSgracsful to
o nation that pretends to offer equal
privileges, opportunities and immunities
TO all ClassOs), and remedies proposed to
restore justice, content and a reasonable
degree Of prosperity to the great mass Of
our people.
In reply to the ArSt part Of your quss-
tion, "Whst is the cause Of the present
depression in trader" I unhssitatingly
answer that it is the poverty Of the
masses. There are over 100000 people
within our borders that do not get half
enough TO eat; there are more than
twice as many that are not half clothed;
the first class living from hand to mouth
or driven 30 near the verge Of want that
they are deprived Of the comforts and
the opportunities for instruction and rec
reation which are part Of the promise
of our fundamental law to every law
abiding American citizen who is able
and willing to work and to his family,
To the second part of this question,
"What would be your remedy to correct
itF" my answer is contained in a petition
to the honorable house Of representa-
tivss, which / made last August, and
which reviews the conditions that make
some radical measures Of relief neCss-
sity; and in bill accompanying the said
petition, which I drew two years ago and
had introduced in the house (H. r

presented in the senate by Mr.. Pefrer

sted property tax, you will at once re-
lisvs the great mass Of people of the
burden Of the war charges Qncluding all
pension and interest RcoountS) amount
ing to two.fifths Of the expense Of q
proAigate administration land $3.50, 0,000,-
600 q year in addition to this amount,
which it costs the people to get that sum
Of money into the national treasury by
indirect tRxRtion), you will relieve them
Of oil expenditure for internal improve
ments and for the support OF the census
bureau; you viii relieve the states Of the
cost OF their annual assessment and the
support Of the state military OrgRnizR-
tionS; you will relieve our industrial
classes from the necessity Of making
further concessions to newly-arrived and
low-priced emigrRnts; you will raise o
fund that win set every idle American
citizen within our NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Of native or foreign birth-st work on
extensive public improvements in every
organized county in the land; and you
will thereby not only give to labor an as
sursnce Of justice in the future, but you
will make some restitution for the in
justice of the past. The result of such
legislation on trade, on the idle wheels
Of our manufactures, on the content Of
the people and the prosperity Of the ma
tion, no sensible man will try to guess,
because he will know without fumbling

sum without q SAVIOR Of injustice or q
shadow OF oppression, which cannot be
truthfully said Of the accumulation Of
the fabulous fortunes which this meas
ure would hslp to disperse.
In difusing a part Of the plunder in
the great fortunes OF the nation IN this
way, while filing q pressing need of the
country by supplying the channels Of
commerce with new measure Of Circu-
lating medium, We win mot only still the
popular cry for "the dollar Of our dad
dies," and prove to the cringlng devotees
Of msmmOn-thS false prophets Of our
erR-WhO snivsl when mammon stops to
wall and snicksr when he turns to smile,
that In giving this needed dose Of the
dollar Of our dRddies, we can mix in the
sense of our dRddies in the historic ratio
Of 16 to /. This measure referred to
would not only give employment to the
idle and revive trade, but it would feed
the hungry, clothe the naked, and lift
up the respondent; and, above ell, St
IOOuld knock the PISStOerGtjc bUttIS-GSe of
StGrVGtton from 0Cer tho heads of our Gss-
dStstrSGI classes.
As the measure proposed to remedy
the existing evils around US appears too
arbitrary and radical TO those who are
too much occupied with their own affairs
to realize the situation or understand
the facts, or to heed the warning voices
Of history, and whose ignorance leads
them to believe that such statements
and conclusions as are contained in the
petition referred to in this letter could
only emgnate from one OF the race Of
crsnks. Twill conclude this letter with
quotations from two or three Of the most
conservative speeches that / have had
occasion to examine in which the matters
that ] have briefly called your attention
to are discussed, and when the speeches
from which quote were made, the con-
dition Of the country and the people
was that Of boundlesg thrift and unpar-
Glleled prosperity compared to such as
exists to-day.
On March 6, 1886, Hon. Ben. LeFevre,
Of Ohio, in the house Of representatives,
said:
"If to foster wealth in the hands Of q
minority; il to fill the country with
millionRires on the one hand and vast
mass Of suffering labor on the other; if
to dot the land with castles for eapi-
taists, and cover it with novels for
labor, is prosperity, we are prosperous.
We have reached in q hundred years the
level found in Europe in q thousand. In
common with the peculiar prosperity Of
the shores from which our fathers fled
because they were poor lSborers, we
have wiped out the class Of citizens con-
tented with a competence, and left gulf
that wldsns every day between the very
rich and the very poor. = As q
writer on political economy has tsrsely
said: we have the many who produce
all and enjoy nothing, and the few who
produce nothing and enjoy all Against
this evil free political institutions avail
US nothing. The many may possess tn Q
ballot and live in rags; the few may
have no political privileges differing
from the masses and yet own the people
to their ruin.
