10 THE OMAHA DAILY inflTS : SUNDAY , JUNE 20 , 1897.
Ante Room Echoes
The recent annual sefnlon of the supreme
loilge. Ancient Order of Unltcil Workmen ,
no , tlio superior lodge of the Degree of
lionor , which were held In Milwaukee , were
not marked by many Important changes In
the existing lawfl of the bodies , although a
ETCit deal nf buslne'a was transacted The
witk done wan largely of a negative chardc
tjr. Yet there -were a few things of prest
Iniportnnro and Interest done. The amount
oinletall nock that came up was mountain
Itlgh , an U evidenced by the fact that tlio
supreme ImlRe was In session cvcn dajs , anil
the fiupcilor lodge throe flats
The lice gnvc In Its telegraphic rolumrs
the results rarh day of the work of the
Bffixlon , hut the follow ins mattcra are men
tioned nuulii , as they are of Intercut to the
thtinandt of Nebraska members They wnc
obtained dlnctly from J.V. . Carr , of thU
clt > ' , n prominent and active local workman
who was a member of the supreme lodio
cooimlttfc on laws Mr Carr returned from
Mil1aukee last Thursday.
Memboit ) of this state were probably modi
inte-estrd In the fact that Omaha did not
eociiru thi' H'lS meeting of the bodies. Al
though the Nebraska delegates. acting under
lusti uctloiiA of the Brand lodge of the fltatiN
m do n hard effort for the prl/e , they failed
StraiiRo to say , the exposition , vvhleh was
expected to attract the gathorlnn' , was re-
Bpcmfllble- the lo * of them. The deletes
were of the opinion tli.it It would bo so
jreat ; an attraction thit the bodies could not
du thu work laid out before them. Strange ,
too , to flay , In the face of thin "cntlment
the bodies selected Anbury Park , the li\cly
Btimmer resort , for the place of holding the
next se 3lons. On the third Tuesday In
Juno the supreme lodge will mctt and the
miperlnr lodge will convene on the preceding
( MomHy
In all the proceedings probably the mat
ter of the greatest general Intelcsl wnq the
withdrawal of the > Ontario grand lodge
Jurisdiction fiom the order. The procclure
was absolutely necewary Inlevv of tlio
action that the grand lodge lisa taken , and
the- stand which the supreme lodge assumed
In the premises
Some time ago the Ontario grand lodge
Incorporated under the lawa of the piovltuv.
An won as it did this the province statutes
re-quired that lt Insurance department
Hhould bo iil-solutely separated from the supreme
premo ledge In thla country. The On'arlo
Brand lodge , therefore , came before the su
preme ledge \vlth a proposition that the ! !
nuranco department of the two bodies be
ne\cred entirely but that It be allowed to
bo connected with the supieme lodge fra
ternally The matter was placed In the
handy of a special committee for considera
tion , which reported adversely to the propo
sition Thla icport was unanimously
adopted.
Hie representatives of the Ontario ginnd
loflso thciefore signified the Intention of the
grand lodge to withdraw entirely from the
fold It Is Allied that this action WES taken
with , harmony , no 111 ftfllng being engen
dered. The Ontario grand lodge will now
proceed to become n distinctly separate
order , although it Mill work on the lines of
the parent bodv. H takes away a member
ship of about 30,000. The representatives
oUted that another offei would be made at
a tutuio session of the supreme lodge to
Jillti again fraternally with the Ardent Oi-
ilcr of United Workmen The withdrawal
flow not , of course , apply to the othei grand
16dge JurlfidlcttotM that exist In lirlt'sh
America.
The cta'fllflPd svtcm of n e < = sment re
ceived ( iiilto a boost In the session In contrast
\\lih assessments. Tlio
\ \ the lavl svstom of
reports showed that the state Jurisdictions
which had adopted the foimer had pie -
pcred better than tlmso which adhered to
the lalfr , and tlut those jurisdictions wc-i < -
better oIT tlnn vl.cn they worked tinder th"
letter. Tor IiiGtan"e , California , which bad
buo.i showing a decease annually of from
Kr ) to 700 under thi > level , i se\vimpnt sjs-
tcm. showed an Increase of 1,000 and mor-1
li t jtat under the Classified system All
the states which hive a classified ovate-tit ,
jfi-Vly a do-en , showed net Increases , whlln
tlrtW with the level asiessment plan titlll In
vojue ; showed smaller Increase ? and in some
ca eM 'i decrease
At Its session last year the. siipreni * loili ? ?
allowed the grand lodge jurl-dlctlons the
privilege of changing to the classified as
H.-ssmen * sjstem The classified svstem was
required In only or ? case. The laws piovrd
thai assistance coultl only bo granted IT
those Jurisdictions which adopted It At Hi
late hcsMon the Nebraska grand lodge de-
te-rmlr.M to cling to the level assessment
plan , for the reason that Itus considered
that the assessments under It weie as low
as they could Ii > under any system
J. 0 Tale of Lincoln , this htatc. who pre
sided over th ? supreme lodge as supreme
master vvoikman , and who was elected past
lifand master woik-nan , was al o elected supreme
premo lecturer for the comlns jear. Not
1110:0 than $3,000 will be allowed him for his
iv-nses In his work In the weaker jurlbdlc-
tlotis.
"Attempts were made to extend the liiaur-
* nce- features of the order , especially looking
to1 the adoption of an endowment , but all
tV-ie wire defeated.
i'A ' number of Inquliles wcio received abo.it
llio construction that Hhould be placed upo'i
the.laws It was decided , however , that the
HUPIOIHO ledge would not construe the laws
until an actual case wa.s offered for a de
cision
/I ho Nobiaska delegates made .111 attempt
to adjourn the pupreme lodge for two ji-ars
111 , ( he Inte'icsts of economy , but this vvnp
lcifnted , a netesslty for a ge-aslon nexi
yjVir apparently being felt by the dele.i'itcs
