's' = AUSELESS BOARD.
1t Has No Power to Do Anything and
No Suggestions to Offer.
Bp he Assoctated Pr,n.

Boston, Aug. 2S.-The members OF the
State Board OF Arbitrat ion neld meet
ing in their new quarters in the State
House extension today. The labor
controversies in New Bedford
and Fall River were the principal topics
under discussion. The board reported
that under the present condition of the
market that both the manufacturers and
the employees are satisfied with the condi-
tlon OF affairs as they now exist. 1t is
expected that when there is an upward
tendency in the market the manufacturers
will be willing to end the controversy.
This it is claimed is likely to be the case
at any time and the board therefore de-
cided not to take any decisive action until
that time.

An Immense Gathering Of the
Order at Washington.
Reports Of the Supreme Officers Show
Order Is In Flourishlng Condition.

wAsHINoToN, Aug. 2s.-Preparationi
1er the grand parade OF the Uniform Rank
sngrossed the attention OF the Pythiani
eoday. Many thousand visitors were at.
tracted to the tented camp by the exhibi.
aion drills of severnl divisions.
The conclsve Of the Supreme Lodge was
called to order by Supreme Chancellor w.
w. Blackwell in Builders Exchange Hall
et 10 o'clock. Great secrecy was observed
And the entrances were carefully guarded.
The supreme officers wore Grape badges on
yate Past Supreme Chancellor Shaw, OF
Wisconsin.
Roll call was answered by delegates
from nearly every State aud Territory.
Supreme Chancellor Blackwell and Su-
preme Keeper OF the Record and Seal H..
L. G. White read their biennial reports.
Supreme Chanceilor's Report.
The report of Supreme Chancellor w.
w. Blackwell was submitted. 1t was OF
considerable length and dealt chiefly with
the friction caused by the action OF the
Kansas City session dissolving all connec-
tion between the Pythian sisters and the
Supreme Lodges, and the threat by the
German lodges TO secede from the order
unless they were allowed the privilege OF
using the ritual in the German language.
Dealing with the question of the recog
milton of the Pythian Sisterhood
che supreme chancellor expresses
the opinion that the ban at pres
snt prescribing the Pythian Sisters
should be lifted, and the members
Of the order permitted TO join them II
they desire to do SO. This, he says, can
be done by special edict, making an ex-
eeption, so far as the operation OF the law
may affect them.
The action of the German lodges is
characterized as ga system OF opposition,
which at first took form in the shape OF
protests and finally eliminated in such a
0ishonorable disregard OF assuming obli-
cation as to take shape in an organized
rebellion"
Chancellor Blackwell states that in the
early history of the order two rituals
ene in English and one in Germsn--were
Issued to every grand lodge applying for
enc or both.
But the Supreme Lodge made no dis
einction between the lodges using either
Of them. The German lodges claimed a
membership OF from 1000 TO 100. 900, but
have, at matter of fact, only 13, 900 MEM
bers, the majority of Germans now form
ing the order becoming members OF Eng
lish speaking lodges.
y" The time has came when Americans
should be Americanized," ;" says the su-
preme chancellor; "and, however hard IL
hay appear temporarily, the successful
accomplishment thereof will be worth all
II may cost, and crown OF Immortality
awaits our order for having taken the
erst step in that direction.
Having pledged our loyalty to the
Government under which we live l deem
II our duty and hope 1t may prove our
pleasure to define that pledge to carry

COMPULSORY VOTING.

A proposition has been introduced into
the New York State Constitutional Con
venUion to make voting compulsory. 1t is
urged that unless this is done the provis
ions of the Australian ballot law can be
avoided by bribing voters 70 remain
away from the polls Another reason ad-
vanced is that it is the duty Of every citi-
zen to vote, and that the highest interests
of the state demand that Judgment sshall
be passed upon all great questions of
public concern by all those whoHgo to
make up the body polite. It is a we'll
known fact that the results OF many cleo
tions have been determined not by the
men who voted, but by those who refused
to do so and staid at home. Mr.. Cleve-
land is President because in 1882 no less
than 213OOO Republicans who, two years
before had voted for Garfield for President
and helped to give him over 81, 900 plural
ity in New York state, refused to go to
the polls, with the result that our present
Chief Executive got the phenomenal
plurality of nearly 1893, 900 votes for Gov
ernor, which led directly to his double
elevation TO the Presidency.
1t has also frequently happened that
hundreds of thousands of citizens have
failed to express their sentiments through
the ballot box upon important amend
Enents to state constitutions, which have
been adopted or rejected without their
aid Certainly it is most desirable in a
government like ours that all the voting
population shall take part in the selection
of public officials, and the decision of con.
stitutional and other important questions,
The greatest danger 10 the Republic lies
in the indifference of great bodies Of its
citizens to their responsibilities and duties
This being the case, the states and the
Nation have undoubtedly a right 20 take
measures to secure the fullest express
ion Of the voters upon all public matters.
The means to accomplish this are not
however, so clear One method which
would be probably found quite effective
would be to allow rebate of taxes to all
who could present certificates Of having
voted 1t must not be overlooked, hows
ever, that in many instances the chief evil
results not from the abstinence Of many
from voting at the general elections, but
from the staying away of thousands from
the primary elections of the various
parties. These primaries decide who shall
be the candidates and what shall be the
policies submitted to the arbitrament OF
the public ballot box. If the greatest aud

4 o'clock this morning. General Wiley
had promised to permit the soldiers to
turn out on the Fourth on dress parade,

opinion is that the settlement at Walston
