Invitations have been issued by Com
panion Court ST. Paul No. 2f1 for pow
erty bali at Twin City hall on Tuesday
= evening.
The annual session of the high court of
Minnesota will convene "Wednesday morn
ing at 1G o o'clock at Elks hall. 1t is cal
culated that the business of the high
court will be completed in one day In
the evening of that day the courts of st.
Paul will give a smoke social and enter
tainment for the delegates and Foresters
of the Twin Cities. The Windsor hotel
has been designated as the headquarters
of the high court during the session. The
present officers of the high court whose
successors will be elected on Wednesday,
are O. H. O'Neifl, of st. Paul, high chief
ranger Hiram Howe, Red Wing, high
vice chief ranger; A. E. Reuillard, Min
neapolis high secretary; E. N. Young,
Minnea polls, high treasurer; DR.. u. H.
Maloney, Belle Plaine, high physician; f.
j. Leonard, Jordan, high counselor Inc
high auditors are G. E. Harrington, Wi
mona. and y. A. Pallet, Minneapolis. Il.
N Young of Minneapolis, is most promt-
nently mentioned for the office of high
chief ranger Mr.. O'Neill not being
candidate for re-efection. For high sec
retarv The candidates that have so far
apolis. tie present incumbent; D. A. Pal
lett Of Minneapolis, at present high au-
ditor; W. L. Hayes and Milton GargeS,
past high secretary, both of the latter
being from st. Paul. The feeling seems
to be that while all of the candidates for
this Office are good men and any of them
would give satisfaction, st. Paul is en-
titled to the office of the high chief
'-.rargar. No candidates except the present
incun,bents have developed for the other
offices On the high standing committee,
but her & stribution will largely depend
upon locality.
Orc Of the important questions that
= viii c1.i.e up at this meeting of the
h gil court will be the admission of dele
gates from the companion or lady courts
of the order. 1t is entirely optional
with the high court whether delegates
from the companion courts admitted.
= The high court of Minnesota was opposed
to the admission of women into the or
der, but it is thought that the opposl-
't1on Is not now so strong, as in actual
operation the plan is not so Objectionable
as its opponents thought it would be
Furthermore, if the women are admitted
to the high court their numbers will be
j. added to those of the men as basis
: for representa- ton to the supreme court
) The question of their admission has not
been. canvassed to any great extent, so
s it is impossible to foreteH or even make
T guess as to what the high court will
do upon this proposition.
Mr.. Henry Lantry will represent Court
Capital City No, GA at the high court
meeting at Elks' hall next Wednesday.
