in his hands, and approved two, and has
several remaining to be acted upon.
One of the bills vetoed is the one es-
tablishing Clearwater county. In with
holding approval of this measure the gov

1.-THE consideration of this bill presents
many interesting questions. In the first
place the people of the northern portion
of Shoshone county petition for segre-
cation, as outlined in the bill under re-
view, but the petitions of the citizens
| of the southern portion pray for the pass
age of the bill introduced by Hon. c. c.
| Fuller; segregat ting the counties of Sho-
| shone, Idaho and Nez Perez, and form
| ing therefrom a new county"
| Continuing, the governor states thai
| there is no evidence before him to show
| that the people of the proposed new coun-
| ty desire to be cut off with such terri
| tory as that included in the bill. Il an
| constrained" he says, ito withhold ap
| prevail; l feel that this is the only safe
| course for in case the law is needed, they
| have their remedies with future legisla
| tors; on the other hand, irreparable in
| jury might be entailed by the bill becom
| ing a law"
| Another of the bills vetoed is that re
| garding the salaries of the state Officers
| and judges. 1.-THE economy attempted il
| this BILL he says, II not only regard a:
| false, but entirely uncalled for Will
| committed to the principle of true econ
omy in public affairs, l can not give ap
prevail to measure that reduces tn
| compensation of important state official
| to the grade of ordinary Clerks
The bill to protect the grazing lands o
the state from the stock of non-resi
| dents has also met with executive disap
| prevail.
Among the other bills vetoed are senat
| bill No. 100, to repeal the provision 70
| the appointment of a deputy clerk of tn
| supreme court at Lewiston; house bi
| 70, to repeal the law regulating the es

speaks to heart. 1t is the generous
impulse which sends us beyond self.
And it is only when we are thorough

the greatest benefit to others. True
charity deals in a variety of wares. ii
has sympathy for the sorrowing, hope
for the respondent, cheer for the sick
and afflicted, strength and support for
commendable endeavOrs, and winning
suasion from wrong and imprudence.
1t is so unobtrusive and yet so over
powering, and it is a chivalry never
realized in the days Of knight erran-
try. 1t is a mission incumbent on all,
and it's route is over fields where all
may work Vet it is an ideal beyond
perfect realization. We but approx
mate toward this ideal by bestowing
such gifts as we have upon our fellow
men according to their several necessl-
ties 1t is the inspiration of courtesy
and the basis of all social amenities
It's exercise is manlike, it is Christlike
it is Godlike.
With the world at large, the prac-
tice of charity is a matter of persona
option, but with us, it is Masonic
duty. If we look about us to see Il
we have exhausted opportunities fol

One of the real gems of the evening
at the Hawaiian Masonic Lodge in
stallation banquet was the response of
Clarence NJ White to the toast Char
ity.' Mr. White is the new master
of Lodge lie Progress and has long been
known here as a man of more than
ordinary scholarly attainments. OF
Charity Mr.. White said:
Charity is that disposition OF the
heart which inclnes men to think fav-
orably of their fellow man and to do
them good. The popular estimate asso-
ciates it with bounty and munificence.
The gift, rather than the motive which
prompts it, is accepted as its definl-
ton. Hence it is that the exercise of
charity is generally regarded as re-
stricted to that few whose greater
worldly possessions justify it's indul-
gence. If this virtue meant only lavish
gifts of money to objects deserving or
undeserving, then would it's practice
| indeed be beyond the reach of the many
and confined to a privileged few. But
no. brethren, charity has broader and
| higher significance. 1t is the dlsposl-
tion. the animus and the motive which
are of far greater moment than the

the exercise of this Divine privilege, we
shall find that we have not fairly COM
menced to avail ourselves Of them.
There are other wants besides destl-
tuition. There are needs outside OF
money. And it behooves us to make
a mental inquiry how far we are con-
forming to and complying with the
noble teachings of our order. And
when we consider that the indulgence
of every generous emotion, and the
performance of every act in pursuance
of it. are refexive in their effects, that
what we impart does not depart, that
what we bestow on others we bestow
equally upon ourselves, we'll may we
exclaim, the greatest of all virtues is
charity. For our faith may be lost in
sight-hope ends in fruition-but char
ity extends beyond the grave through
the boundless realms of eternity
