ANOTHER GOOD CROWD.
Last week the city of Pierre turned
itself loose in trying to make things
pleasant for several state organizations
tina: were worthy of the best efforts in
their behalf. This week the city is
again trying, with unabatcd vigor and
hospitality, to do the same thing. The
FREE Pass expressed its opnon of
the worth of the q. a. r., w. II. G. and
$. of V. orders in its last issue, and it
would not be true to its engagements il
1t did no, make mention of the class of
visitors we have with lis this week.
The grand lodge A. 1. and A. Nj. and
the grand chapter II. a. NJ, which are
now holding their annual sessions in
Pierre are probably composed of as
representative class of citizens rs you
could pick out in the state. These men
belong to an order that history tells lis

been handed down from Il time when

istencc During all the ages that Mai
sonry has existed and iourislcd it has
never had amy other object than that of
the best welfare and bettcrmcnt of man.
kind. The proofs of this are seen on
every hand. The Masonic order has no
grudgc against any other organization,
sect or church in the world to settle,
aud Il is worldwide itself, but is en-
gagged in teaching such principles as
charity, friendship and bro,hcrly love.
without which the world would soon
become degenerate. The FREE Press
does not aim to give Il dissertation on
Masonry in this space, though nothing
would please us better, because we have
only the best opinion of its precepts and
teachings, and know that if they were
lived up to by every man WHO learns
them in the natural way lie would Ill
ways command the confidence and es-
teen of all his ncighbors What we
want to impress is that Pierre is pleased
to welcome the representatives, ofthiS old
order from all over the state. not only
for their personal worth and high stand
ing, bnt for the society they hold mem
bcrship in. Ii is the ancestor of all or
CARNATIONS Of secret character founded
to elevate and improve the people, and
from these facts the city feels herself
especially honored in being the tempo
rary abiding place OF the grand lodge

The local fraternity and other people
of the city have given every evidence OF
their appreciation of the presence Of
their guests, and have not made thu
welcome half-hcartcd or neglected in
any way.
