WILL ORGANIZE
ORDER OF MOOSE
LODGE IN TONOPAH

Tonopah is to have Moose
lodge. according to J A. Buchanan,
who arrived from Reno for the pur-
pose Of organizing lodge here
In discussing the order Buchanan
said The Loyal order Of Moose
is today one Of the strongest fra
ternal organizations in the Unit
ed States. having a membership Of
nearly half million, and growing
rapidly. In the west the growth has
been remarkable during the past
year. San Francisco leading with a
lodge Of about 5000 members, with
Los Angeles a close second with
5000 on its books.
Space does not permit me to
90 into details about the work that
We are doing, but I will mention a
few Of the more important points.
We have secured money enough to
provide for a home for the orphans
of the members of the Moose.
The little folks are taken in
charge after their parents death,
lclothed. fed, educated and given the
choice of learning a trade or taking
a business course. John Hays Ham
mond and a number of capitalists in
the east and west have furnished
enough to start this work, the initial
cost of which is about $3,000,0 900.
We have a home for the aged Moose
and none OF these features cost the
local lodges anything. We have fix
ed dues of seventy-iive cents a
month. which secure for the MEM
bers free medical attendance for
themselves and family, a weekly
benefit of seven dollars and funer-
sal benefit of s10O
The initiation fee is five dollars
until the charter closes, then it is
s25.
In Reno we have $40 members;
In Goldheld they have about 800.
while In Fallon and Virginia City
they have good live hustllng lodges.
i will be pleased to explain the
merits OF the order TO any one who
Is interested and VIII be at the Miz-
pah hotel every morning until "a
and III the evenings after 6:a0"

Senate at Presidents Request Passes
Resolution Defining Policy of this

Washington, ID. c., March 10
Revolutionists, filibusters or pro-
moters of domestic violence in any
country in Pan-America hereafter
may not hope for war supplies of
any description from the United
States.
This principal was proclaimed in
concurrent resolution adopted in
the senate today, at the instance of
President Taft. and which is prac-
tically certain to pass the House to-
morrow.
The resolution was aimed primar
lily to meet the inadequate present
neutrality laws to which the Mex
lean government called the presi
dents attention. Today's action
marks a departure from the policy OF
the United States during the Madero
revolution when ports of entry held
by rebels received arms and amuni-
tiOn regularly consigned to .mer-
chants in Mexico
1t is anticipated that largS
border patrol of Texas will. be nec-
essary to enforce the new measure.
Representative Burleson of Texas
will take charge of the measure in
the house. Senator Root, who Of
fered the resolution in the senate
pointed to thousands Of Americans
in Mexico who are imperiled by
every consignment of arms shipped
into that country by Americans.
