The first warm days lure the enthusi-

no use forcing things in the open
ground until 1t is warm and dry

when the plow or spade turns 1t over.

 a New Grand Camp

1 "WHEREAS, By it's disregard of the laws and the constitution of the order and by its abuses of powers and other actions the Grand Camp has ceased to be part of the Arctic Brotherhood; It is therefore
 RESOLVED, By the Arctic Broth erhood that: First-All offices of the Grand Camp of right ought to be, and the same are hereby declared vacant. Second-That this convention, by vir- tue of the power in it vested by the direct mandate of 16 subordinate camps, should reorganize the Grand Camp in conformation with the fun damental principles of the order; elect all necessary officers thereof; provid. ed for future meetings of the Grand Camp, and, alter and amend the con stitution-subject to ratification by two.thirds of the subordinate camps for that purpose hereby declares it. self the Grand Camp of the Arctic Brotherhood with all the powers and control of all property and moneys belonging to the same"
 Elwood Bruner opposed the declar- ation on account of instructions from his camp as to revolutionary proceed ings. Shoup added an amendment making notifications of all actions of the convention on declaration necessary by two.thirds of subordinate camps. J. M. Tanner said subordinate camps had already authorized action by sending delegates. A prolonged discus sion followed and recess was taken for five minutes. On being called to order M. Katzenmeyer, of Wrangell offered substitute providing that the office of Grand Arctic Chief be de- clared vacant that all officers who were bona fde residents of the juris- diction be entitled to hold their po- sitions. The substitute was lost by vote of 27 to 19,
 The Shoup declaration which had partly been adopted was again taken up and passed by vote of 33 to IA, Elwood Bruner and E. B. Collins led the fight against the fight to oust the Grand Officers holding that they were complying with instructions from their subordinate camps J. M Tanner representing Skaway, St. Michael, Flat and Iditarod led the fight for immed- fate action. He was supported by w. B. Stout and the entire Haines dele gation, by NJ. J. o'Connor, D. Smith Harris, and A. G. Shoup.
 Collins and Brwer expect further instructions from their camps today and on such will depend their action at tonight's session.

The meeting of the 'S7 Pioneers that wil Itake place at the Odd Eel, lows hall Tuesday evening, will de- eide. among other things, whether or not the organization will elect to en- ter the Alaska Order of Pioneers.
 The latter organization has offered to admit them to their order and 10 affiliate with them. If it shall be de- termined Co unite with the larger organization. the Juneauites 'S7 class will have to determine the manner and details ol the union.
 The 'S7 Pioneer is comprised of those who came to Alaska not later than the year 1887. Most of the mem bers are early settlers of Juneau. though there are a few whose first Alaska residence was in other parts of the territory
 The Alaska Order of Pioneers orig mated as the Yukon Order of Pic, neers in Fortymue in the eighties. In 1893 Circle was struck and the books went along with the stamped CTS and Circle City was made the head quarters of the order
 The Kloudjke strike took many of the old timers to Dawson and in 1897 Circle gave the Dawson lodge a char ter. In 1898 Rampant was struck and another stampede followed. Ram part became the headquarters, all of the records having been carried along. Then came the Nome tsrike and the stampede of '99. Again the old timers hit the trail and carried the books along to the golden sands of Seward peninsula.

thrive and a lodge was instituted in Nome but before it got into working condition Fairbanks was struck and the old fellows hit the trail again but the books were left behind with Frank Aldrich
 The Dawson lodge finally was the only working unit of the order Mir, Aldrich saw the necessity of making a distinctive Alaska society in order to preserve the records and early his tory of the country, including the different stampedes of the past cen tury. The Alaska Order of Pioneers was therefore founded during the win ter of l9O6-7 and came into posses sion of the oldest records of this char acter in the territory. Igloo No. l was instituted in Nome and has a membership of 700; Candle No. ? followed and has 1S5; St. Michael No. 8 has 50. These three Igloos ordered a Grand lglOO. Later Fairbanks IS- loo No 4 was organized taking in all the old Yukoners and has today nearly one thousand members. Ruby No. 3 is the newest Igloo and has member ship of 3OO
 Membership in the Alaska Order of Pioneers is limited to those who came to Alaska and maintained bona fide residence in the territory prior to the beginning of the present century. It is affiliated with the Yukon Order of Pioneers. though they are independ- ent of each other Membership in the Yukon Order of Pioneers is limit ed to those who reached the Yukon watershed before the first railroad train reached Bennett.

The Grand Camp of the Arctic Brotherhood as constituted by outside conventions is obliterated should the action of last nights session of the Arctic Brotherhood convention held in Douglas be ratified by two-thirds of the subordinate camps.
 For the time at least the conyen- ton has resolved itself into a Grand Camp and all of the offices have been declared vacant
 The election of new officers for the Grand Camp will take place tonight which will be the third day of the con vention
 The main object of the meeting was brought before the body by the Shoup declaration offered as the work of committee consisting of J. M. Tan ner. A. G. Shoup and w. B. Stout on the motion of Elwood Bruner at the night session of the first day. The declaration is as follows;
 WHEREAS, The Actic Brother hood is a fraternal organization creat- ed to advance the interests of the great Northland and of those men who actually live in the silent places, and,
 WHEREAS, Former members who have left the North, have attempted by methods in direct violation of the laws and ritual of the Arctic Broth erhood to destroy its distinctive and fundamental characteristics by the es- tablshment of camps beyond our boundary line, and,
 WHEREAS, The actions of the Grand Camp of this order held outside our Jurisdiction and controlled by members who have become divorced from the subordinate camps, has tend ed for several years to encroach upon our constitution and laws, culminat- ing in bold and illegal usurpation of power by the Grand Camp of 1912 which mwarrantedly and wrongtuIly promulgated the repeal of the follow ing parts of the Arctic Brotherhood Constitution, namely;
 Article 1, Sec. ?, which limits the Jurisdiction of the order to territory north of 5i 20 north latitude.
 Article ", Sec. 2, which forbids the establishment of any branches of the order outside it's proper jurisdic- tion.
 Article XVIII, which provides for referendum of all constitutional amendments to the subordinate camps for ratification"
