country and, Joined by every active
member Of the lodge, will make a Wig
orous campaign in the interest OF Mr.
Wallace from this time forward, for
at the 1915 meeting at Los Angeles, it
will virtually be decided who is to be
the grand exalted ruler at the meet
ing a year hence.
Many EIks to Come Here.
Mr.. Barnum is also sending out circu-
lar letters to every lodge Of Elks in
the United States inviting them to visit
FL Paso en- route to the convention and
expects as a result to entertain large
number Of people here in the early days
Of July.
The FL Paso EIks expect to have the
full strength Of the Texas lodges of
Elks behind them in their fight for
Mr.. Wallace. While W H. Atwell, of
Dallas. has announced his candidacy
for exalted ruler in 1916, many of the
lodges have long ago voluntarily
pledged their support TO Mr.. Wallace,
and his work as an officer OF the grand
lodge is expected to have its effect
upon the majority of them, so that
when the Texas delegation reaches Los
Angeles and caucuses. the local Elks
are looking for but one decision and
that will be a solid state behind Mr..
Wallace for the big job in 1916.
Has Worked for EIkdOm.
Mr.. Wallace was district deputy
grand exalted ruler of the Elks in 1911
u for what then formed the western
district of Texas and for the first time
in the history OF the order, every lodge
in the district was officially visited
The following year, because OF the ex-
tent Of the territory, Mr.. Wallace had
the district cut into three and three
men now preside over the same terri
orty that Mr.. Wallace covered during
his incumbency. The result is oftener
visits and more enthusiasm among the
lodges, and the members give the credit
to Mr.. Wallace.
Head Of judiciary Committee.
In 1912, Mr.. Wallace was appointed
upon the judiciary committee Of the
grand lodge by exalted ruler Mills.
Since that time he has been upon that
committee-'the supreme court OF the
EIks'-the last two years as chairman
Of the committee, or chief justice.
Mr.. Wallace has been a CONSTANT at
tendant upon the grand lodge and an
active worker in its ranks since 1910,
when he was elected delegate from FL
PasO lodge to the grand lodge meeting
in 1910 at Detroit. In 1908 he went
with FL Paso lodge to Philadelphia as
head OF the Quien Sabe club So far,
there is no recognized candidate in the
field for the position Of grand exalted
ruler and it is generally accepted
among the big men Of the order that
Mr.. Wallace is the man for the place
in 1916.
Mr.. Wallace has not announced his
candidacy and does not intend to do
so but, on the suggestion Of the vari-
