When out Of power, they wanted the
voters in question, and there you are.
Lots Of people in the north, who have
let out doleful howls about the cleo.
tion laws Of the south, and they are
just and right, would do exactly the
same thing il they could. In their
hearts they know that the lest is
right, II is impossible for any man
to intelligently vote on any subject n
he can not read the prevailing language
of the country, its constitution, aud
write tne tongue. 1t is beyond tine
range of human possibility. had hop.
ed that the common sense Of the two
great dominant parties of New Mexico
would get together on this point, but
there is little To Indicate that they ever
will. Each side is afraid of the other.
and wen now when tie beginning OF
independence is in sight, and the very
time l. at hand for the adoption of an
educational qualification. they cravenly
dodge the issue. IL does not speak well
for the political manhood and patriot
ism of New Mexico that il il 50. il
cannot he in any way ncutralizcd by an
extension of suffrage TO women. BE.
fore there is any consistent reform in
suffrage there will have 10 be a begin
ming with the mar end of it-and the
open ROAD 20 that is by way OF tn.
educational qualification, which of
course should apply TO men aud women
alike.
As may he gathered from this. | am
IN favor OF the extension of unlimited
suffrage to women, whenever they shall
themselves ask for il. Such boldcd
has nothing to do with my well known
endorsement of Paulinics. II j. not

citizen OF the and who is fitted to

to do with the propriety OF it. Nor
should It hc forced upon anybody. Up
on the completion of the present censu,

there in New Mexico. II would be-
lust and right AZ that time to receive
n petition for submission, aud to sub.
NIT 1t, barring men from the subse
quent expression at the polls. II u
majority OF the women wanted il. they
should have II. subject to exactly the
same "ducationa qualifications ~ the

"A grand lodge. kor this reason the com
m,ttse on founding y grand lodge,
which had been appointed December y
1870, reported the following resoin'
ton, January l, 1871; Resolved, That

shall consist OF the following: the
original founder OF the order together
with all past and present officers oi
the hrst and second degree who are
nov in good standing IN The order, anu
that the above take effect immediate
ly."
The resolution was adopted without
opposition, February IL, 1871, motions
were carried that the lodge be known
AS New York No. /. Is. T.. y. Elks, and
that application be made to the grand
lodge for a charter. AT the SAM time
the petition from the Philadelphia PEG
ole was referred to the grand lodge Tor
dispensation. The charter was obtained
from the legislature OF New York ON
March ~, 1871, signed by Governor D..
4. Hoffman, Incorporating the grand
lodge, OF New York, with power TO
issue charters to subordinate lodges
throughout the countryi the grand
lodge was Incorporated and issued u
charter the same day to New York No.
/. This date therefore marks the legal
commencement of the grand lodge, and
also the beginning OF New York No.
/, as existing by that distinctive title
under the charter OF the grand lodge.
Two days later, March IL, 1871, hi
adelphia No. 2, was chartered. In
1875 San Francisco No. 5 came into
existence, followed by Chicago No. =.
In 1881 the lodges numbered but four
teen. due to the fact that the order,
started exclusively with men onneet
ed with the theatrical profession, little
effort vas made to secure material from
other walks of life. With 1852 began
tue era OF Elk development, which
with some fluctuations, nas continued
to the present time, gathering aecumu'
lated force from year TO year.

|TAN ORGANIZATION.
With most men religion is a thing

With most men religion il a thing
to be slipped ON or Oft like a suit of
clothes. When the winter suit becomes
q burden in the heat of summer il is
east aside. When religion becomes
a burden or when IL interIeres with the
comfort or the cravings of the flesh,
it j. slipped of and stored away until
some more propitious time. Religion
has frequently been alluded to as a
fire insurance by when men NAV in.
sure their souls against the fires of
hell. And most men seem to consider
IL Az such. When their names are
placed upon the church rolls they lima.
CINE that they have entered into an
irrevocable contract with God. Know
ing that God never goes back on a con.
trac, they travel up aud down the earth
dancing with death and holding high
TO rescue their souls in the final wind
up. II is the business of the preachers
To intercede with God and remind Him
of his obligations tn the men whose
names are on the church rolls. And
n a rule the preacher does his part,
and he breaches to empty pews through
the long. hot summer while the brethr
en- spend Sundays in the seductive
shades and coolIng waters Of woods
and lakes. The brethren look TO the
woods and lakes 10 protect them from
the burning rays Of the summer sun,
aud they look to the preacher to yank
them nut Of the frying fires Of a relent
less hell. IL there is such a thing.
And we have empty pews today in all
Of our churches because men dread the
discomfort of an hour in church more
tina they fear the consequences Of a
failure TO keep their contract with God.
To keep a fire insurance policy good
the premium must he promptly paid.
And God requires payment every day
and hour and minute. The premium
must be paid with every act and
thought, il there is any truth in re-
ligion at all, and when we let the
policy lapse the protection ceases.

Hell and Hot Weather.

A Roswell minister was heard TO com
plain recently of the small attendance
at his church during the hot sundays
of June and July. He was considera-
bly, discouraged, and he did not hest
tate to declare that hot weather seem
ed to nave more terrors han hell TO a
great many Of his congregation. lie had
been preaching to empty pews, offering
prayers at a deserted altar and sing
ing songs where only the sparrows and
the night owls could hear the music.
And he was tired Of il all. Not tired
of work, nor tired of worship, but
preachers are human and they long for
sympathy and appreciation. Like the
faithful horse that is dragging has
load slowly up the Hill, he works bet
ter and pulls harder II he hears words
Of kindness and encouragement, II 5
human to feel just that way, and the
fact that preachers remain faithful to
their floc ks and keep the altar fires
forever burning, speakers volumes of
praise TOR their profession. Men less
devoted and less loyal to the cause of
Christ wouIu loek the church doors in
good old summer time and turn the
whole shebapg over 10 the devil, If
there Is such q being.

The Educational Test.

As a patriot who believes that the
right of suffrage is something not 10
be lightly given or thoughlessly re-
ceived, I must confess that / have been
considerably Disguised M the way that
the leaders Of both and all parties in
the state have lodged the matter OF
the educational qualification of voters.
To he sure they have some illustrious
precede1ts back Of them, but that does
not altar the situation a particle. Even
the great Beverage saw some sort Of
a light in this direction. and modified
his position 50 materially that II he
came actually amusing, or il would be
amusing ii il were not 20 clearly in.
dicative Of n softening OF the vertebra.
This is no new problem, and il is the
same in all its aspects as IL was years
ago, when the ben Hill first declared
that ''Do man should be allowed the
right Of suffrage unless ne can read.
write and speak the English Ian.
guage.' This was inspired by the
great influx of foreigners who could
not answer any Of the specifications,
but who were fed through the NATURAL,
zation mills, 10 become the most dang.
erous element in New York, New Jer-
sey and Philadelphia. The same abuse
continues to this day. The evil /.
recognized by the leaders Of all parties,
but none Of them have had the cour.
g when in power to start something.
