To elect an officer by acclamation is
not contrary to Masonic usage The
oldest Grand Lodge in the world, that of
England, has so chosen her grand master
ever since III. In many of our oldest
grand lodges it Is custom to do so
when occasion requires. In the grand
lodge OF Massachusetts few years since
all the grand officers were thus chosen.
We like the custom, as it demonstrates
the true spirit of Masonry, and that
there is no rivalry. no ill-feeling. as is
often displayed In elections where some
fayorite is defeated after a bitter con-
test.-Masonic Sun.
