The Roval Arcannm.

Marion S. de Roco, deputy supreme regent of the
Royal Arcanum, in speaking of the article pub
lshed last week drawing attention TO the fact that
several orders had changed the mode of assess
ments and that level assessments could not be
maintained, said:
The Royal Arcanum has not made any change
whatever either in its assessments or its rates. and
If the attitude Of the supreme officers indicates
anything it does not propose to do so.
The article says: tine Royal Arcanum at It's
last session discussed the matter of a change of
assessments and referred the matter to a commir-
tee to present plan at its next session." And
that is substantially all it did. The supreme
Council is composed Of many men each Of whom
has his hobby, and not lacking for support per
haps. To capture joint committee and saddle IL
with certain views has been done before but tn at
of itself does alter the fact committees is
not the Supreme Council. That the majority of
the Supreme Council was oppo sed to a change /
am persuaded. That the report was received 1 be-
lieVe. That it courteOusly considered and as
courteousy "shelved" is apparent from the follow
lowing excerp of the proceedings (p IA, Bulletin)
viz:
latter discussion the Joint committee was in
struced to turn over to the supreme secretary all
reports books, correspondence, tables and other
papers and docum ents relating TO the statistics Of
the order which it had accumulated in its investi
cations the past three years. The thanks of the
Supreme Council were given the committee for its
persistent endeavor and zeal in presenting its
suits shown by its reports not only this year but
