j. P. Coston, who gave very in
teresting resume of the activities of
the camp since its organization said
in part:
Esteemed Neighbors and Members
of the Old Guard:
Before entering upon my brief re-
marks, anent Aztec camp, wish to
register kick-at a renowned au-
thority. Among the other authori-
ties consulted- was the Encyclopedia
Americana where | found six lines to
the Woodmen of the World. The next
article which was devoted to Wood
peckers consisted of two full pages.
While we do not claim to be as Old
or as numerous as the Woodpeckers,
still think we are unjustly discrim-
mated against and entitled to a
strenuous protest.
Believing that upon this auspicious
occasion, brief resume of the his
tory of the organization, rise and
progress of the Pacific jurisdiction of
the Woodmen of the World, and of our
own Aztec camp N 80, would possibly
give pleasure to the old guardians of
our forest by refreshing their mem
ory of ancient neighbors and events,
and also to be of interest to our new
er neighbors, have gathered togeth-
er from various sources the following
data:
At the organization meeting of the
Sovereign camp of the Woodmen of
the World, held in Omaha, Neb., on
June 9Th, 1890, the delegates from the
mountain states, realizing that the
rate of mortality in their several
states was and would continue to be
lower than that of the other states
of the union, then entered into an
agreement with the Sovereign camp
permitting the said delegates to or
ganize separate jurisdiction consist
ing of the states of California, Colo
rado, Utah, Idaho, Montana, Nevada,
Oregon, Washington and Wyoming,
and in pursuance of said agreement
twenty-five delegates met in Denver,
Colo, on August 11th, 1890, and or
ganized the Pacific jurisdiction Of the
Woodmen of the World and elected
as it's officers F. A. Falkenberg, head
consul; w. A. Willard, head adviser;
E. A. Douglas, head clerk; Howard
Evans, head banker; DR.. E. W. Var
ley, head escort; Fl. T. Riley, head
watchman; F. B. Byles, head sentry;

clan, and T. A. Hughes, head consult
ing physician. Thus it was that the
puny infant was ushered into the
worlds arena and christened by its
hopeful but not over sanguine prog
enitors. Little premonition had they
of the significance of their action up
on that eventful day. / cannot believe
that in their most hopeful vision they
saw the grand and beneficient organ
ization that it has developed into at
the present time, but fired by fra
ternal zeal and love for their fellow
man they struggled on, and at the
time Of the meeting of the head camp
in 1892 there were present fifty-one
