IMPORTANT EVENT IN ORDER
Foundation Completed and Part OF
Superstructure Now
Erected.

After years of agitation, covering
almost a quarter of a century, the
Masons of Illinois are building home
for aged Masons and Masonic or
phans. No question has stirred the
fraternity as has organized charity.
Each succeeding grand lodge session
has been swayed more or less by ar
guments for and against the PROPOSE
ton.
\ few years ago the sentiment be-
gan to crystallize. Down in Moultrie
county in central Illinois a thought
full brother, Robert y. Miller, watched
the discussion with silent interest.
His mind at last was made up. To
him the landmarks of this world were
growing dim and shadowy, and with
the passing of his life he practically
solved the problem.
I'm his will he devised to the Ma
sonic grand lodge of Illinois 264 acres
of his home farm, conditioned only
that the grand lodge cause to be
erected and maintained thereon a
suitable home for such widows and
orphans of Masons as the grand lodge
may from time to time designate for
residence therein.

preparation of $4,000 was made for
the purpose of erecting a building on
the farm.

LET THE PEOPLE KNOW

The Housed Committee onCOuntles,
Citiesandfowns, of theLegislature,
are considering the question OF
amending the present statute SO as
to make it compulsory upon boards
of supervisors to publish theirsta
ments regularly in the county news
papers. The law now leaves 1t op-
tional with boards, either to post the
statements at the courthouse door
and at each voting precinct, or to
publish in the newspapers. In most
cases these statements are SIMPLY
posted, and only in few counties
are they printed. We regard 1t as a
matter of Importance that the board
should be required by law to print.
Publicity is a great moral agency
and that is a44er all the supreme
power of the press. Ple govern
ment should take advantage OF the
facility thus afforded to keep Its
affairs well before the people, and to
make those who handle ubiic funds
ountregularly to the taxpayers.
In Rockbridge, however, both OF
tbecounty papers have beenpublish-
ing aannally a statement showing
the receipts andeXp9nditures of the
county for a number Of gears' Being
a matter Of interest every cit}zen,
these papers agreed TO publish their
annual financial exhibit for One.half
their advertising rates-thus max
ing it appear in both papers for one
price.

THE CAMPBELL CASE

The Senate Committee for Courts
at Justice held a long session be-
dlind closed doors Friday afternoon,
.ostensilly TO fix date for taking
up the Campbell case, referred to
it by the Senate. I'm the informal
discussion in the committee it is
said that the point was made that
the House. in its action, failed to
obey the constitutional mandate
that in such II proceeding the cause
for the removal of the judge must
be entered on the journal Of the
House, and that the House, in
transmitting TO the Senate the
joint resolution passed by it, failed
to state therein the cause for re-
moval of the judge.
The committee will meet again
tomorrow Thursday. The tangle
seems to be hard to unravei, but
Senators say they will be able to
get together on some kind of II re-
port, but they are unable to say Gu
eybat lines it VIII be.
itseemsunfOrtunate that thismat-
Ter should hang fire on IA mere tech
micnlity. 1t has been proven beyond
II question that Judge Campbell is
unfit to preside over the court of
great county. The House has so
decided, the press of the State and
public sentiment have taken the
same view !

THE PRIMARY PLAN

According to the program ar
ranged by the two houses Of the
General Assembly, they will take
a recess from the 18th of May
until November, and there is a
vast deal of work to be done by
them in the next few weeks. One
Of the subjects which remains to
be disposed Of is that relating to
primary elections. State Chair
man Ellyson, ex-Attorney General
Ayres, and Congressman Swanson
are pronounced candidates for the
Democratic nomination for Gov
ernOr.
The platform of the Democratic
party of Virginia looks to a noml-
nation by a primary election; that
having been the resolve of the last
Norfolk convention, in accordance
with which action the State Demo-
cratic Committee has adopted and
promulgated primary plan which
was used for the first time last
year in the selection of candidates
for Congress.
1t is expected that the Legis-
lature will legalize all our pri-
maries, and there is strong and
growing sentiment in favor Of Its
requiring the several counties and
cities of the State to pay their
necessary expenses.
The elections to take place this
fall will be Of great Importance,
and most of the nominations OF
candidates will be made by pri'
maries. Hence the necessity FOL
the Legislature to give to these
primaries the fullest protection OF
the law.
