EDITORIAL SYNOPSIS. It seems like all fools are not dead yet. Now, in view of the fact that some of the intelligent cranks are do- ing the acts, I propose to beat fire with fire. As I said before some of our ‘ friends have scuttled the ship, and now they must go down with it. It is sink- ing, and.unless the leak is caulked the | ship will go down. Already the sword fish has pierced the hull, and the bot- tom has_ st the snag. He who ; smokes Spanish tobacco knows some- Ithing next week. There will appear j the great article, headed ‘‘ ‘The Mason- ic Order—Its Divisions, and Sub-Divis- ions.” There are lots of men in ma- sonry who wear great masonic jewels, and know no more about them than a fly. Iam now reaping the position of instructor in the m art. I pro- pose before I am through to teach you all something that you do not know. The half has not been told. Wait until my book of fairy tales and ghost stories makes its appearance. I told you to be good and you would not, so look out for the cyclone. G. U O. OF O. F.

Had my advice been followed things to-day would be different, but oh, no, what we did fifty years ago will not do now. You shall not play in my back yard.
