OF the one to gain and the lust of
the other to keep; is not this at the
bottom of 1t all? The lust of the
flesh" OF nations, states and persons
does not burn out its fury until the
widow and orphan sit at the ruined
fireside, and in hunger, sickness and
death, bemoan the greed that caused
it. And so l urge upon you that our
brotherhood may be an Influence to-
ward compelling state, nation and
people to adjust their differences in
peace and unity
Our departed brethren in some in
definable manner, send us this mes
sage, and we feel, He being dead
yet speaketh.'
To the living, breathing, throbbing,
working, playing present, we must
finally turn at these services, as
surely as we leave these doors to look
forward to the busy world tomorrow.
Let US do so, forgetting those things
which are behind, and reaching forth
unto those things which are before"
The loving memories are sacred, but
the stern, unrelenting present de-
mands our attention and we must
press toward the mark" Some are
tired by the way, some are feeble and
there are none of us who do not
need in some respect the aid of the
ether. Here lies the essence of
this service: reverence for the past
and helpfulness for the present. The
brother you meet, the discouraged or
duty and then let there be no look
ing back. Let US pursue the even
tenor of our way, forget the carping
critic, follow as nearly as possible
the true tenets of Elkdom, and then
tender and worthy memories will re-
main always for these services.
In conclusion, Kipling has given his
message to us of the living present:
"If you can make one heap of all
your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch
and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your
beginnings
And never breathe a word about
your loss:
If you can force your heart and
nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they
are gone,
And so hold ON when there is moth
ing in you
Except the will which says to
them: Hold on.'' ee-.zs-- =
If you can talk with crowds and
keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings-nor lose the
common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends
can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none
too much:
If you can fill the unforgiving min
ute
With sixty seconds worth of dis
tance run,
Yours is the earth and everything
that's in it,
And-which is more-you'll be a man,
my SOM"

Yours Very truly,

The direct cause was bill prepar-
ed by j. J. Knox, then comptroller
Of the currency, entitled: For the
better regulation of the currency"
In the bill, among a mass of verbi-
age, a sneak clause was included, the
effect OF which would demonetize sill
ver if the bill passed. In committee
it was in charge of u trusted agent of
the thieves who assured the commit
tee that the bill was merely what it
purported to be, and was intended
merely to expedite and simplify the
clerical work in the comptroller's of
flee. The same representations were
made to congress and the bill was
passed and signed by President Grant
Neither Grant nor four-fifths of con
gress knew what was intended until
the crime was actually committed.
The far-back cause was a conspiracy
among the interest gatherers of Lon
don and our eastern cities to make
the interest bearing debts of the Unit
ed States and railroad corporations
then amounting to a sum greater than
all the money in the world amounted
to, perpetual.
