clique or ring within the grand lodge. At
the last session of the grand lodge a reso-
luton was passed designed to prevent, as
far as possible, the personal solicitation of
votes. and early in March the grand chan
cellor learned that persons were even then
engaged in soliciting votes. He therefore
sent out a letter to the representatives
calling attention to their resolution and ad-
vising them not to give their pledges until
they met at the grand lodge. He urged
that they utterly refuse to recognize letters
or circulars soliciting support. This re-
ferred to those who we're making attacks
on the grand lodge officers and others. On
this subject the grand chancellor said:
Not a Political Organization.
We are not a political organization in any
sense of the word, and the member who
dares to attempt to serve his own material
pose an Institution that most OF us believe
Is too sacred and too holy for anything
Of that kind should be made to understand
Instantly and emphatically that he has
made a grave mistake. Some of the
methods that have prevailed this year in
suit to the intelligence of this body and
should be made a Pythian offense, II indeed
1t is not that already. II there is nothing
more to this order than office holding and
office seeking. then II is high time that this
grand domain should surrender its charter
and TO any member whose highest ambition,
so far as the order is concerned, is to hold
office in II, 1 say to him, without fear of
contradiction, that the order would be bet
ter off without him.
The laws of this domain are known to all
the onenses are clearly defined If there is a
ring In this domain whose purpose, as dem
onstrated by their present conduct or past
record. is to prostitute the affairs Of this
body to :heir own selfish purposes, to direct
them for Interior ends and unworthy mo-
tives. they are guilty of conduct unbecom-
ing a, Knight OF Pythias and should be
tried for the offense in the tribunals of the
order and not In the announcement of
some candidate for office by ex-parte testi-
mcny, The character of some of the an
nouncements this year fall nothing short
of scandalizing the order and some OF its
officers and are outrageous, indecent, I'M
Pythian and untrue.
So far as 1 am personally concerned l
want to go on record that there is no Office
nor official preferment within the gift of
this order that would ecOmpense me for
the -impugnment of a single official act, m
the mind of a single member of the order,
and / want II understood that when l am
suspected of misconduct that l demand
that l be arraigned before the proper
tribunal and not indirectly by an unlicensed
circular issued by someone who turks
covertly behind the methods sometimes
used, but always condemned, in common
ward politics.
