THE MASONIC HOME AT UTICA.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Permit me TO call attention TO the good
work done by the Masonic Home. in this city.
II consists Of a group Of brick buildings within
which are nearly foIr hundred inmates including
sixty-two children and their mothers. BY far the
larger number Of these inmates are past the
meridian Of life; many octogenarians! OF tho
children, all large enough to go TO school in
Utica The smaller ones are instructed by a
teacher in Memorial Hall which erected from
a Request OF $500 by Edwin Booth. Connected
with the Home is farm of l75 acres, managed
by a practical farmer, the produce from which
contributes largely to the sustenance Of the In
mates The health of the inmates Is carefully
looked after by physician. A visitor at the Home
finds that the fraternity furnishes home in the
true meaning of that word for those of their
brothers who through sickness, accident or old
age are unable to care for themselves where they
will not be looked upon as paupers. The present
superintendent, W. j. Wiley, pointedly called at
tention this sentiment when he said TO an under
official who treating the aged inmates with
little or no respect These people have rights
here which must be respected. This Home was not
built for you and me, but for them. Their money
built it. They not paupers. They live IN their
own home" j. D. l.

Mr.. Wiillams Do you know wheth-

Mr.. Graham: He described the
horrors of the mixing of the races;
he described the great and bene.

a district that is thickly inhabited by
the brunette republican, and his
conduct on the floor of the conven-

low sitting outside here, and every
once in while one of the twelve
apostles would jump up and try to
say something and he would say,

can't do anything Just about that
time Judge Baker rose to his feet

In all seriousness | want to say

move on my part will be fraught
with dire results, | will say that no
one will cast his vote quicker to

This report has been on the desk
and on the calendar for twenty-eight
days, and 1t seems to me, and It did
seem to me this morning that we had
been patient. To we boys, who are
in favor of Jim Grow" and have not
pressed for a vote on this question,
this was another trick for the pur-
pose of delay until this green eyed
monster, this political monstrosity
going over the country leaving its
Shiny trail behind until that monster,

be just as strong as friend Haskell
in my opposition. 1t was not neces-
sary for Mr.. Haskell to place this
provision in this platform nor did he
do It, He made his race on the 9TH

that he did not want the negro vote,
