Small dues and moderate capi-
tai are more to be commended in
fraternal societies than high dues
and heavy cash surplus. Those
Lodges who boast of their thous-
ands of dollars invested in govern
ment bonds and other equally good
securities would have less cause to
complain of suspensions for N. p.
d. if they had used their surplus
capital for the payment of the ar
rearages of those Brethren whose
means would not longer allow them
to keep themselves square upon the
books. The accumulation of capi-
tai is not a part of the mission of
any fraternal society, and it is our
duty to array ourselves against any
attempt to enrich our Lodges at the
expense of our Brethren.-Peno.

On the western ranches IN our
Northwest Territories, the term
Maverick" is used. 1t is applied
it this way: When the general
roundup for the purpose of brand
ing the animals is held each year,
no matter how careful each man
NAV be to secure all those belong
ing to his herd, there will always
be some that are missed and left on
the prairie, and thus escape being
branded. When the work of brand
ing is completed, the animals are
allowed to return to their grazing
grounds and those escaping the
brand are recognized as belonging
to no particular person, and are
designated as mavericks" or the
property of no one.
Now it appears to us that this
term, maverick" might appropri-
ately be applied to our members
who allow themselves to become
suspended.
When the time arrives for the
periodical roundup" and an as
sessment is levied upon our living
members, to pay to the benefic-
iaries of some deceased Brother, the
sum named in his b. c., one of our
Brethern fails to respond to the
call, and az no compulsion is used
upon him, he became suspended,
thereby escaping the brand, good
standing" for the time, finally. if
he is careless and fails to respond
to the calls subsequently made up
on him from time to come, his b. e.
becomes annulled, he belongs to no
Lodge. The Order has no interest
in him, and thus he becomes
Maverick"
When the chilly winds OF adver-
sity, or the cold blast of death
comes to him, he has no one to
look after his comfort in his last
days, and his faithful wife and
dear little ones are left to depend
on the cold charity Of others for
assistance and sustenance, when all
could have been avoided, if he had
continually seen to it that he al
ways bore the brand, "Good Stand
ing"
My Brother, you owe 1t to. your
honor, you owe it to yourself, never
lose your good standing"-never

Last Saturday night the Odeon
Hall at this place was packed to
the limit to hear the lecture on
Workmanship by Bro. J. W. Kins-
ley, Past Supreme Master of the
Order, and to listen to as interest
ing a literary and social entertain
ment as been given in Dayton in
many years. Bro. Kinsley did not
speak long, but his address was to
the point, and he proved conclusive
ly that the Ancient Order of United
Wrkmen is the largest, best or
ganized, most substantial and
cheapest fraternal beneficial organi-
cation on the face Of the globe TO
day. Many were much interested
in his remarks, and there will be
several new additions to River
Lodge No. 6 as a result of his dis
course. The literary part Of the
program was as follows:

After the program WAS finished the
visitors were invited to lunch at the

cleared for dancing. The dance
did not last long, however, Ms it

The news of CronJe's transfer to
St. Helena has made us pensive.
It must have made France pensive
as we'll. He might better have
been sent to London and put in the
Tower. The War Office has pre-
ferred to ship him to the island on
which Napoleon was Gagged. The
simplicity Of the proceeding is over
whelming. It is not merely that !;
it is cruel, too.- When the news
of the transfer reached here we
heard it stated that it was fine
tribute to q gallant foe. The English
War Office is not much at that sort
Of thirg. It had no intention Of
making this deportation an apo
theosis and Of elevating Modder
River into q Waterloo. What it
did intend was to diminish Cronje
and thereby achieve the double
purpose Of humiliating him and
humiliating France. So do times
change and with them the usages

More than himself-that is his best estate.
Yet love, you know, is hardly up to date.
In time like these woman on the brink
OF matrimony needs to stop and think.
OF course you love me; that comprehend,
But to be loved is not aim or end
OF modern womxn's dreams. Are you content
To let this love be just an incident
In our two livesl To live and work with me
On terms of absolute equalityl
And do you promise not to interfere
With My Development? II time makes clear
The workings Of great Karma in the fact
That am born to lecture or act,
Will you assist my plans, Or will you rage
And scold about my going on the stage,
Like unenlightened husbands Of the past!
Then, too, regarding children! Oh, the vast
Importance Of an understanding
Upon that question, ere we take the vow
That brings such matters into litigation.

Which must be followed. Then want to know
Where you believe immortal spilits 60
When this life ends; and also where you stand
Regarding Trusts, and Single Tax on land.
Take time, and well consider each suggestion,
And later we'll decide the marriage question:
know not what the Shepherd may have said,
only know the modern maid was led
A willing captive to the church one day,
And that her romping children run and play,
And cry, and grow like others. while the wife
Seems all absorbed in her domestic life.
Its little worries and its large delights
Have driven out all thoughts Of equal rights"
Let modern woman talk, but oh believe!

The enormous permanent in

an establishment of about 600, ,000
men, which does not include native

will never again have a smaller

EDWIN MARKHAM'S GREAT POEM,
THE HOFFMAN,"

The New York Sun, aplutOcratic
organ, has offered prizes for poems
in refutation of Edwin Markham S
masterpiece, 1.-THE Hoeman. The
weak efforts that the cold, almighty
dollar have brought forth are eman-
ations from marble hearts. For
their benefit Mr. Markham has an
alyzed "The Hoeman" as follows i:
The Hoeman is the symbol of
betrayed humanity, the Toiler
ground down through ages of
oppression, through ages of So
cial injustice. He is the man
pushed away from the land by
those who fail to use the land, till
at last he has become a serf, with
no mind in his muscles and no
heart in his handiwork. He is the
man thrust back and shrunken up
by the special privileges conferred
upon the Idle Few.
In The Hoeman we see the slow,
sure, awful degradation of man
through endless, hopeless and joy
less labor. Did l say labori No!
-drudgery! This mans battle
with the world has been too brutal.
He is not going upward in step
with the divine music Of the world.
The motion Of his life has been
arrested, if not actually reversed.
The Hoeman is the effigy of man,
a being with no outlet to his life,
no uplift to his soul-a being with
no time to rest, no time to think,
no time to pray, no time for the
mighty hopes that make us men.
There are few who say that the
hideous Hoeman does not exist
anywhere in the world. Do they
hope to dispel this thing by denial!
Happy the day when a shrug of
the shoulders can dispel this i'm
bruted man-this Accusation.
There are two kinds Of poverty
There is that Of the pioneer, which
is bracing and endurable. Hope
has its roots in such poverty, be-
cause the means of self-help are
not removed. The pioneer has no
obstacle between himself and sue
cess except his own inertia. There
is nothing degrading in the hard
ships he endures. No middleman
comes between him and nature.
He has ready access to the land
and to other natural resources.
With all his limitations, there is
still a path of escape into the
heights.
But there is another kind of pow
erty = hopeless, enervating, de-
structive of ambition; the poverty
Of the toiler depicted by Millet,
lamented by Ruskin, and grieved
over by Carlysle; the poverty of
bent drudges in the .sweat-shops,
the factories, the mines.-Edwin
Markham.

Mr.. Mckinley is regarded as a
weak man. He has failed to i'm
press upon the members Of his
party that he is the. man for the
high Office he holds. There is not,
of course, any doubt about his in
tegrity, but there is doubt Of his
having mind Of his own. There
is very strong impression in New
if what is appearing in
the newspapers of that section is to
be believed, that Senator Hanna is
the real president, and there is
decided feeling against the Senator.
He is regarded as a plutocrat, and
there is suspicion that he would
sacrifice the institutions Of the
country to crafty his ambition

What to DO Until the Doctor

1t is very hard to stand idly by and see
our dear ones suffer while awaiting the
arrival of the doctor. An Albany IN. W
dairyman called at drug store there for
q doctor to come and see his child, then
very sick with Group. Not finding the
doctor in, he left word for him to come at
once on his return. He also bought
bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy,
which he hoped would give some relief
until the doctor should arrive. In few
hours he returned, saying the doctor need
not come, as the child was much better.
The druggist, Mr.. Otto Seholz, says the
family has since recommended Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy to their neighbors
and friends until he has constant de-
mand for it from that part Of the country.
