The Benevolent and Protective
Order Of Elks i'm the United
States Of America

The phenomenal growth of the Benev-
Client and Protective Order Of Elks
within the past few years has attracted
attention in all parts of the country,
and general desire exists to know more
about an order which in so brief per-
iod has taken leading place among
the fraternities in America. In review
ing the causes which account for the
prestige the Elks have gained, the
prominent features that every member
must be citizen of the United States
and that no lodge may be organized
on foreign soil Immediately present
themselves. Thus the order and it's
membership give testimony to devotion
to American principles and loyalty to
the United States Government. An
other potent factor in the popularity of
the organization is the Interpretation
Of the cardinal principles, Charity, JUS
tice, Brotherly Love and Fidelity.
Among its teachings none is more beau
tiful than the doctrine Of protection of
the character and fair name Of woman.
In the adoption Of its motto, "The
faults of our brother we write on the
sand, their virtues on the tablets Of
love and memory" the Order has CIV
en- the broadcast and best expression Of
the noblest Of graces, Charity. The
foregoing ground work and aims of the
Order from the basis Of the future
growth and success of the B. P. o. E.
The Order was established in New
York on the 18th Of February, 1868, by
The Devils Lake world. (Devils Lake, N.D.) 1911-1911, 1911-02-24

a coterie OF actors The moving spirit
and founder was Charles S. A. Vivian,
the son of an Episcopalian clergyman.
The little band felt the need of med
ium that would rivet their acquain-
tanceship with the bonds of fraternity
and from this need the Order of Elks
was born. No thought was given at
the time to the possibility that the or
ganization would leave the confines of
New York City, and even dreamer
could not stretch his imagination to the
day when the Order would be national
in it's scope and become great moral
and social factor for the veal and ad-
vancement Of the country. The found
ers built better than they knew. News
of the organization and its purposes
drifted to Philadelphia and Lodge No.
2 was established about year later.
The whole continent was next traverse,,
and Lodge No found its habitat in
San Francisco. The dial veered east
ward next and Chicago, Cincinnati and
baltimore followed respectively. Grad
ually the scope Of influence increased
until the organization numbered $4,000
members in the year 1900. The growth
since then has been much more rapid,
the Order now has 100000 members on
it's roster and over 1000 subordinate
lodges. From all parts of the country
comes the same story of rapid growth
and increased influence The lodge that
does not own it's home or club house is
the exception, and at the present mo.
ment handsome homes are being erect
ed everywhere by those who have not
heretofore been awake to the new march
of progress. Financially the Order is
among the strongest in the land. A fea-
ture of the organization is the rule per-
hitting only one lodge to be establish
ed in each city. No lodge can be estab-
lished in city containing less than
5000 inhabitants.

REAPPORTION.NENY.

I, WAS a foregOne conclusion That the
Ccnsus Committee of the House of Rep
resqutatives would report reapporuon-
ment bill following the lines of the
c,Ympacker bill. which passed the
House at the last session and was ieit
unacted on in the Senate. The com
,nlttce has been made over since March
a. only three Of It's sixteen members haE-
ing served on it prior to that date But
those three. all Republicans, were ear
nest supporters OF Mr.. Crumpackers pro-
posal 10 increase the membership OF the
House from 391 To 433. The Democratic
minority In the last House was almost
unanimously opposed 10 reducing the
present representation of any state. ana
that result could be reached only by IN
ing the minimum Of membership at 433.
Speaker Clark was especially anxious 10
prevent the loss by Missouri of two
seats. which would have occurred under
the alternative plan Of holding the mem-
bershjp at 39l and greatly increasing the
ratio of representation dozen other
states would have had their delegations
cut down along with Missouri. and their
present strength in the House is 163
votes--Only thirty-three short Of ma
tority. II Is evident. therefore, that the
re-reported Cumpacker bill has inhu-
ences behind II which cannot be over
come by the argument that from the
point OF view OF parliamentary efficiency

The committees bill Will probably pass
the lower branch promptly, and its &C
ceptance by the Senate is practically
assured. for the etiquette Observed at

from trying 10 dictate in a matter pri-
marily affecting the composition and in
ternal management Of the House. Any
legislation accomplished at this session
will come too late however, 10 allow a

WAGES AND PRICES IN ENGLAND
AND AMERICA.

WAGES AND PRICES IN ENGLAND
AND AMERICA.
An instructive showing Of the COM
parison or contrast between the United
Kingdom and the United states in wages
Of working people and their cost OF liv-
ing Is contained in a report just issued
Ly the Labor Department of the British
Board of Trade. 1T presents the results
of painstaking Investigations which were
made in 1909 In twenty-eight cities Of
the United States, of which two were
on the Mississippi River and all the rest
east Of that stream, well distributed
throughout the country. The twenty
eight had a total population Of nearly
1J.JOOOO0. The British statistics used
III the comparison were gathered nearly
four years earlier, in the fall of 190j
bur that circumstance, SO far as il af
fected the result, doubtless favored Eng
land more than America. since those
four years saw a greater rise Of prices
in America than in England.
The cist Of the report is that In Amer
lea hours OF labor are shorter. wages
are higher. rents are higher and cost Of
food is higher than in Great Britain.
These general facts were known before
but what the report does Is 10 show the
percentage of difference in each case
and 10 strike a balance exhibiting the
net advantage Of the American labOrer
over the British. The American work
ipgman gets more than two and Il quar-
ter times as much as his British cousin
and works fewer hours. so that his
hourly pay is nearly two and half
times as great. On the other hand
rents are about twice as high here as in
England and the cost of food is about
One-third more, SO that the total cost
as much again as il is in England But
as wages here are l30 per cent higher
than in Great Britain, or 40 per cent
by the hour. and the total cost of liv-
ing is only - per cent higher here than
there, it is evident that the American
workingman is by far the better off.
IL should be remembered, too that the
present British government is strongly
committed 10 the principles Of Golden
ism and opposed to protective tariffs.
We do not suppose that circumstance
was permitted To- cause any misrepre
sentatiOn or distortion Of facts. But il
IS certain that the report was not made
f. favor unduly the American protective
system. In so far as II * yindicatiOn
Of that system IL is yindcaiiOn ut the
hands Of those who are opposed tO II and
who would have been better pleased 10
condemn than 10 approve H. There Is in
the United states, says the report. a
much greater available margin Of earn
ings over cost Of living thap in the
United Kingdom, and this makes possible
~ command Of the necessaries and con
"veniences and minor iuXuries Of life
that Is both nominGlly and really great
'er than that enjoyed by the correspond
ing class" in the United Kingdom. The
report does not declare, and does not
demonstrate, that this American advan-
tase is entirely due 10 the protective
tariff but it does indicate In the most
convincing manner that American work
