RITUAL OF ODD FELLOWS.
Extra Copies to Be Made of Secret
Work of the Order.

Work of the Order.
INDIANAPOLIS, Sept 20.-A step that
is regarded as the most important ever
taken as to the secret work of Odd
Fellowship was recorded today, when the

voted to allow duplicate copies of the
secret work of the order to be made. At
every session for twenty years or more
an attempt has been made to this end,
but until today every attempt has failed.
Since the founding of Odd Fellowship
there has been only one copy of the Sc
cret work of the order. This is not
printed. but is stamped on parchment.
It is kept by a guardian specially ap-
pointed for that purpose. No one is al
lowed to cast his eyes on it unless that
one is an officer or grand representa-
tive in the sovereign grand lodge. Dur
ing the session of the supreme body In
this city the copy of the secret work
has been kept in a room under the
watchful eyes of two guardians. The res
olution adopted today provides that each
state Jurisdiction shall receive one copy
of the secret work. No additional copies
will be. made. Each state jurisdiction
and each lodge now has the ritualistic
work. which is also secret, but the signs
and grips are not given except by word

made a preliminary survey. At one time
or another each of the maritime nations
of Europe manifested an interest in this
joining of the two oceans.
In 1926 the Central American Confed-
eracy sought the aid of the United States
in the building of canal across Near
aqua. For twenty-five years there were
concessions and corpora lions, surveys
and failures. During this time there was
struggle going on between Great Brit
ain and the United States for advantage
on the isthmus The latter interposing
the Monroe doctrine to prevent the for
mer obtaining permanent footing in the
Mosquito country. This wrangle ended
in the Clayton Bulwer treaty of 1850
whereby England renowned all right to
colonize Central America, and the Unit
ed States agreed never to obtain an ex-
elusive control over an isthmian canal
This was the first diplomatic recognition
of the Monroe doctrine and contributed
more than any other influence to a pas
sive recognition of the same by the other
European powers
Beside this mutual agreement not to as
sumo exclusive control over the isthmian
canal, the treaty provides that both the
United States and Great Britain shall use
their good offices to secure the signatures
of other nations to the neutrality of the
canal
/ 1t seems strange that so obvious a
benefit as the neutrality of the canal
should have met with continued opposi-
ton from American statesmen. Even
Blaine argued that an isthmian canal
was in effect part of the coast line Of
the United States and should be subject
to such defense as the United States saw
fit to erect. The opposition to the Hay
Pauncefote treaty last winter, was based
| on the presidents established by the dip
| lomatic department for half a century.
The arguments were unstatesmanlike
and the logic was bad, but that did not
matter, for was not any opposition to
the Clayton Bulwer treaty an additional
twist of the lions tail? AS the OBJ
has heretofore pointed out the isthmian
| canal, for it's own protection, should DE
as neutral as the high seas With the
world pledged to it's neutrality, WHO
would attempt its destruction? With the
canal purely American property it
would be absolutely useless in time of
war unless it was garrisoned by the en-
| tire land force of the nation and guard
! ed by the navy at both ends
| 1t is to be hoped that the feeling to-
yard Great Britain has so far cooled that
| it will enable our statesmen to look an
| international question between the eyes
without making a face. The conduct of
Mr.. Hay throughout the trying ordeal
| of last winter was most exemplary. He
| has taken up the threads of dip
| lomatic courtesy SO rudely" broken by
1 the senate, and will in all probability be
able to present new treaty enbodying
the same principles of the Hay-Paunce-
| fote convention. Should he be able to do
this it is to be hoped that the senate will
have done with fireworks for the pres
| emit These displays of highly colored
patriotism are entertaining, but the next

THE c14TroN-BUnRER TREATY,

The policy of the Republican party is
frrevocably committed to the construc-
ton of an interoceanic canal. Not only
did the Philadelphia platform commit
the party to the prosecution of this
work, but President Roosevelt and the
late President Mckinley were both pro-
nounced in favor of speedy national ac-
ton on this subject. This unanimity of
sentiment in the regnant party, and the
absence of opposition from the minority,
will of necessity make the canal cues
ton one of the first to be taken up by
the Fifty-seventh congress.
zone obstacle, however, stands in the
way-the Clayton-Bulwer treaty. Had
the last senate shown as much states
manshfp as it did jingoism, the Hay
Pauncefote treaty would have been rati-
fed thus removing the only diplomatic
barrier in the way of an isthmian canal
The retention of Secretary Hay at the
head of the cabinet indicates that at
least the president. is in sympathy with
his views regarding a neutral canal.
The project of an isthmian canal
either across the narrow neck of land
at Panama, or by the way of the San
Juan river and Lake Nicaragua, is as
old as the desire to discover westward

For fifteen years Theodore Roosevelt

national politics. Since the day when
George William Curtis, Andrew White
and the youthful Roosevelt stood in the
Republican national convention in sup
port Of the Edmunds forces against the,
nomination of the Plumed Knight, he has
ieen constantly in the public eye. To
say that he has acquitted himself with
credit in whatever place he has found
himself, would be uttering a truth which
everybody admits. He is always pictur-
e~iue and sometimes we suspect him of
t'ing Intentionally spectacular. But
taese faults, if faults they be, are the
result Of his temperament-perha the
result of his knowledge of human nature.
NIl Roosevelt be the Republican nomi-

IS now uppermost in the minds of the
practical politicians. All the traditions of
Vice presidential succession are against
