A history of Tuscan lodge, r. & A. M.
of Addison is being prepared, and will
soon be published. This lodge was
constituted, June 10, 1861. The archives
Of this lodge containes many valued
relics descended from old Tuscan lodge
of Columbia, constituted in 1898, but
which in years after became extinct.
The collection consists of the masters
gavel, the Wr1rden's truncheons. plumb
and level, two pillars and lamb skin
apron, besides many valuable papers
and records. There is a well authenti-
Gated tradition explaining how these
relics survived the years that mark the
decline and revival OF masonary in
these parts, for until comparatively
recent times there were but two lodges
in that section of the Masonic field
/ Tuscan at Columbia and Ionic at Steu-
ben, the latter like the former having
ceased to exist 1t was the custom Of
the fraternity in Columbia to hold their
meetings in the houses of the brethren,
and the account that tradition gives
how the relics We're preserved, is told
in this way: Tt so happened that the
house in which their paraphernalia was
stored was being demolished and the
relics We're about to be consigned to the
rubbish heap. There was, however, one
of the craft in the crew, who rescued
the archives and other relics and by
this means they We're preserved until
the new Tuscan lodge became their ark
of safety. In the collection is also q
masters savel made from the wood OF
an olive tree which grew on Mount
Olives, a gift from Ralla Floyed, one of
the Adams colony that went to Jaffa in
1866. Years since when on a visit to
Addison he presented the gavel to
Tuscan lodge and also one to Past
Master Samuel Buchanan. This lodge
which is one of the most Furnishing of
the order in this masonic district is

The Democrats had hoped for a big
row at the state convention of the Iowa
Republicans, this week. They had
hoped for an attack on the tariff and
for disruption and friction generally.
They We're completely disappointed,
for there was an abundance of the best
brand Of Republican harmony on tap
and not a drop of discord to mix with
it. The platform is the essence of
sound Republicanism, and the nomi-
nees will be given the usual big ma
jorities in the fall. The true Iowa
idea" is the defeat of Democracy
every time the polling places are
opened.

A Railroad for Alaska.

One of the latest directions in which
American capital and enterprise is be-
ing directed is the construction of an
Alaskan railway, the first to be built
in that great territory whose unde-
veloped resources have such mag
nificent possibilities. The line will be
over 400 miles long, about the length Of
the Bangor & Aroostook's total mile
age A writer in Harper's Weekly
gives some Interesting facts about it
and the country which it will run. 1t
is to go from the southern coast at
Resurrection Bay northward through
the Cook Inlet country and up the
Sustina Valley to the Tanana river,
hundred and fifty miles above it's
junction with the Yukon. The harbor
at Resurrection Bay is, like Port Ar
thur and Dalny, an ice-frec port, open
all the year round, and the route of
the railroad. which was surveyed dur
ing the summer months of last year, is
through a heavily wooded valley and
country rich in coal, gold and copper.
AS far as gold goes, the projectors of
the new line declare that it will be the
means of increasing the gold yield of
Alaska fivefold, from forty millions
year, as at present, to something like
two hundred millions of gold annually.
The railroad will reach the new
Tanana gold-flelds, which will. in time,
become as famous as the Klondike.
The railroad will save three weeks
of the journey from the Pacific ports OF
the United States to the interior OF
Alaska, and there is no sufficient rea-
son why a considerable body of emil
grafton should not find lisa way to
southern and central Alaska, which
has a climate not much scverer than
that Of Scotland, and where. according
to the view Of the agricultural depart
ment, based on careful experiment,
practically anything can be grown
that will grow in our northern states
1t is probable that apples may soon be-
come as important an industry in
Alaska as they are in New England,
and If it is found that flax and wheat
do as we'll az is expected, the regions
newly opened up have abundant
sources of prosperity, even leaving the
precious metals out of the account.
The company which will build the
Alaskan Central railroad is formed of
Ohio, Michigan, and Illinois capital
lists, and matters have gone so far that
the orders for the rails and rolling
stock have already been placed, and
work will be begun on the new line
almost Immediately.
