WHAT GOOD WILL IL DOP
nv Henry =. blackwell, OF Boston.

VIVA. good will it DO for women to
vote? The good will be thrae-fold; it
will be good for women, good for men,
and good for ne State.
Good for women: self preservation
is the first law Of nature Every class
that votes instinctively represents its
own tastes, principles, opinions, and in
terests. Women are a class Of Aneri-
can citizsns. They have special wrongs
to protect and special wrongs to remedy.
They look at the world and at human
Life from distinct and separate point of
view. which men do not and cannot
take. As single women they have t1e
same Interests as other citizens have in
good government and in The supremacy
Of law and order. As wives, mothers
and widows they have special personal
interests, and these interestsJare not al
together identical with those Of hus-
bands, fathers and widowers. Those
differences need TO be emphasized ana
expressed by voters. Manhood suffrage
is class legislation, and class legislation
is always unfair Women never have
had any and probably never will have
wise, just, sympathetic legislation, until
they riemsslveS form part of the
laWmaking power. Women as voters
will be more respected than ever before,
for power always commands respect.
Good for men: While men are the
natural protectors Of women from The
difficulties, dangers and privatons grow
ing out OF their lesser physical force and
necessary pre-occupatiCn in the care Of
infancy and childhood, women are the
nq.ural projectors OF men against reck-
less exposure, excessive toll, and un-
governed appetites and passions. As
vctsrs they will be the conseryators Of
public morals, as they already are the
cOnservators Of private morals. They
will be the loyal and appreciative COM
rades of men in every effort to attain
greater social justice and more general
weli-betug. In politics and legislation,
as in every other legitimate form Of so
olal activity, ct IS not well for man 10
be alonew Two heads are better than
one"
Good for the State: The State is only
an aggregation Of homes. A Repubi-
can State implies a Republican family.
No happy and prosperous State can ey-
list without happy and prosperous homes.
No happy and contented homes can eX-
ist without happy and contented wives,
mothers, sisters and daughters. No
sons can be well-born or well-bred eX-
cept where mothers have been free and
self-respacting. WomeB OF public spirit,
Of mental breadth and comprehension,
self-centered and self-reliant, will rear
sons and daughters who will serve their
country and make the world better"
In Wyoming, where women have voted
for twenty-seven years, there is a small
Ter proportion Of divorces than in any
other Western State. Domestic tran
guilty is in inverse ratio 10 domestic
despo.ism. When women vote, mar
riage viii become a lifelong partner
ship Of equals with reciprocal rights and
duties in the home and in the State.

GOOD MEN AND TRUE.

In every age of the world. has been
found in societies, the good men and
true, consequently it is a subject for
M3sOns to consider, for how often have
they heard the text quoted in their hear
ing, but how often have they unheeded
The injunction. and many of them walked
not in the straight and narrow path
which leads to holiness-to God, or even
followed in ways of rectitude. TO acquire
a knowledge of true manhood, and for
a closer unity of perfect brotherhood.
and in consequence of their neglect Of
Gu-ies they have brought reprOach upon
the institution. and il has been scoffed
a. all through the acts o. individuals
rot keeping the laws. and practicing the
Drecepts OF Masonry.
Every symbol of Masonry presents to
tSa brotherhood lessons Of deep signifi-
cs,oa brt none more 50 than that which
reminds us of that Supreme Being which
nervades everything; whom, as Masons,
". ecl-powIedge as the creator. as our
,,-osorvar and whom we know will be

minded Of thai All seeing eye, which
,,.,.,.,,os al nature. we should walk up

and true, and worthy to govern the craft.
The brethren who meekly attended
meetings there, are always pleased to
point them out 10 strangers. and to speak
Of their worth and merit and OF whose
qualities their addresses made to the
Grand Lodge will speak when they have
passed from their earthly labors to the
celestial lodge above. When we nave
been thus engaged in the pleasurable
duty OF pointing out and explaining the
subjects Of our Masonic picture gallery,
and come 70 our firsl Grand Master (nOW
deceased) we must speak OF him to
strangers as one OF the Masons whom We
personally knew as good man and true,
whom we believed obeyed the moral law
in every detail, and who walked upright
~ before God and man, whose walk
among the world was erect, whose con-
evrsation was chaste and gentlemanly
everywhere, and which is richly express
ed in the records ne has left us in his
addresses made to the Grand Lodge and
the years he was Grand Master, and from
which is taken the following quotation
for the brethren TO contemplate and d.
late upon: Il feel it 10 be my duty 10
use this occasion affecIQnately to remind
the brethren that the beneficent purpose
OF our institution can never be accom-
plished in us, unless our hearts are i'm
bued with the spirit Of that divine vir-
Tue and morality which Free Masonry
teaches, which alone constitutes the real
value of our institution, and upon which
the stability and its power for good de-
ponds.
I'VE should remember our solemn en-
gagemenJs TO the Fraternity to endeav-
Or to lead moral and upright lives, and
avoid contracting any vicious or licenti-
Gus habits, which might impair our fac
ulties, or base the dignity Of our profess
sion, for the influence Of example runs
far beyond where either the eye or
thought can follow, and the obligations
we owe TO our brethren demand chat by
an upright walk and chaste CONVERSE
ton we shall show forth good exam
pie, as shall encourage and stimulate
them to the discharge of the same duty.
MANY Masons think it is only neces-
sary for them 10 acquire a familiar
knowledge OF the modes by which we re-
cognize each other, ana the forms by
which our rites are practiced, and seem
to forget thai they have been taught
very often in the forms and ceremonies
to maintain q perpetual watch and vigi-
liant restraint upon their passions and
appetites.'
May the symbol of God always remind
US that His all-seeing eye is continually
resting upon us, anG that we are under
His watchful care, and as we shall here
after look upon the portrait OF our de-
ceased Past Grand Master Bates, may it
also remind us Of our obligation TO be
good men and true, and our action and
conversation one towards another be only
such as should be gentlemanly in char
acter, and which is not seen or heard in
dens Of infamy, or novels of the vulgar
and uncultured places where Masonry is
unknown, and where true manhood does
not exist,

KNIGHTS OF PYrHIAS-

The usual weekly meeting Of Black
Prince Lodge was held ON Thursday eve
ming last. The attendance and general
tone of good feeling throughout the meet
ing was very satisfactory. The Tesig-
nation of the PTelate and Master at Arms
were rendered and accepted, as both
brothers stated they were unable TO give
the time and attention which these posi-
lions demanded. An election w2s then
held to fill the vacancies for the uneXpir-
ed term. which resulted as follows: Bro.
Chas Roepke, who has been filing the
station of Inner Guard. was advanced to
that Of Prelate Outer Guard, Bro. Ge5.
Menkemeller was advsncer TO Master at
Arms. Brother Geo. Barthollas was
elected to the position of Inner Guard,
and Bro. Fred. Conrad, Outer Guard.
After the routine business there were
short talks by several of the brothers
on timely topics, which were interesting
and instructive and listened to with close
attention.
The Representatives to the Grand
Lodge will make their report of the pro-
ceedings Of that body on next Thursday
evening, and it is their desire that every
member of Black Prince Lodge will be
present The unwri,ten work will be
eXemplifed, and the changes therein eX-
planned. Others matters Of importance
will also be brought before this meet
ing.
Couer de Lion Division of the Uni
fored Rank contemplate holding a ball
on Thanksgiving Eve, at Pythian Cas-
tie. and the personnel Of the committee
in charge IS a guarantee that no effort
will be spared to make it grand sue
cess. Brothers do not fail 10 be present

Ike to make a statement through your

Stamp collecting has long ceased to be

membership run up into the thousands.
These associations recently held their
annual conventions al Minne,onka Lake,

Stamp collectors In West Virginia are
few and far between, though Ohio has
about 500 Of them and a lourishing State
society. the Ohio PhilaleIc Association.
There are two papers in Ohio devoted TO
the pursuit, the Buckeye State Philale-
list, of Cincinnati, and the Phifatelic
Free Lance, OF Bellaire, both of which are
doing well. The auction season is about
to open IN the big cities. Thousands Of
dollars worth of stamps are sold at these
sales. The annual catalogue which lists
and prices almost any stamp issued by
any country, is about ready and its ad-
vance sheets show many marked raises
in the price OF these little bits OF paper.
