DEPARTMENT
CONDUCTED BY THE GRAND LIBRARIAN OF THE
GRAND LODGE OF THE STATE OF NETWORK.
STATE RIGHTS IN MASONRY.

At the formation of this Government the
colonies were a Confederation. a Union of States
formed for mutual protection and mutual inter-
est. When. later civilization advanced. and with
this advance came National prosperity, wealth
and influence. when the iron horse traversed
the country. and the electric flash reached every
town and hamlet, the people came closer to-
rether and the boundary lines Of the State be-
came less and less marked. but the Southern
States still held on their notion Of State rights
and II took the rest Of the country four years.
millions OF treasure. thousands upon thousands
Of precious lives TO knock this notion out of their
heads and to teach them that the Union. the en-
tire community. the country az large. stands far
above any single state. True patriotism real
love Of country will look for the best interest OF
the whole rather than the individual. the town
or State.
II would be we'll for some Of our brethren to
s,udv this exploded doctrine Of State rights in
connection with Masonry. learn a lesson ana
take an example from history. Many seem 10
think that their little lodge Of one. two or four
hundred members is all there is Of Masonry. and
en- long as this lodge profits by. saves a few
dollars or is benefited by any action of theirs,
the rest Of the craft does not count forgetting
that Masonry lived and fourished long before
there were any organized lodges or grand lodges,
that this is merely a system Of government
adopted IN 171T-23 for convenience sake and for
mutual protection. and that the craft that
Masonry itself should be considered first and
above a mere subordinate lodge
Whatever benefits a lodge itself may not reach
the outer circle at ALL but the reverse is the case,
for whatever benefits Masonry. and benefits the
craft al large must of necessity reach and benefit
each lodge. hence while it is laudable for every
brother TO work for and seek the benefit of his
own lodge Masonry at large the entire craft.
should always be considered first and foremost
Lodges are the branches. Masonry the tree it
self and branch chopped of here and there
nav cause a momentary pang, slight futter Of
the other branches but the solid trunk OF the
tree stands upright and unframed at the loss;
hui Law no violent hand upon the tree OF Ma
sonic life and root for that is Masonry itself
There = not enough true patriotism among
those brethren who regard only their own lodge,
neglecting the good of Masonry al large. These
should study history. look up what Masonry was
and what Masons did centuries before their little
lodge was ever dreamed of. Masonry means an
expansion OF views its influence is liberal wild
ennC of thought, and. according TO this, Masons
should look further than the narrow and limited
circle Of single lodge. If this lodge is their
own Masonic hOme-shOuld look above and be-
yond this limit and look to the best interest Of
the craft of Masonry at large.

H4RLEnITEs AT THE ASHLAND HOUSE.

4 party Of joval Masons deliberately and with
malice aforethought" swooped down upon the
Ashland House Friday night and enjoyed one or
Brockways good dinners. The Tribune man tried
10 find out why or what was the occasion for this
invasion and this good dinner, but the result Of
the investigation was somewhat mixed. Venerable
Brother Jacob Vough p esided. and opened the pro
ccedings by stating that they had come down from
Harlem to enjoy good dinner and to have a
change OF diet The Harlem goats. he said. became
tired OF the tin and circus posters about this
time Of the year, hence the dinner.
The Rev DR. Pierce said grace, and the brethren
fell to- until the excellent MENU printed on pieces
of yellow straw paper. was discussed TO the very
last item. Coffee and cigars were brought in and
then began the flow. The first speaker was the
Honora BILE and r. ". Cyrus O. Hubbell who spoke
10 the toast "Improv ement and Advancement Of
Uptown Masonry" subject the venerable brother
was well qualified 10 discuss having Joined Harlem
Lodge in the early sixties. He said. among other
things that Harlem Masonry. like the Harlem goat
has improved very much since then. ard is more
respected and more thought OF than ever before

founders and charter members OF the veterans, and
explained that the Masonic veterans nave done
much to stem the evll OF GENERALIZATION. X. W.
Washington Mullen was the next speaker, ana ne
revealed the first glimpse Of the real spirit OF the
gathering. Brother Mullen strongly advocated the
formation OF a Harlem Masonic Club which should
own a clubhouse, with meeting-roorns, ana mus
establish a home for all Harlem Masonic bodies.
This idea was also approved by Brothers Spauid
