UU Xt E I'lUSClt'LhS. On behalf of the Loyal Orange Lodne of the United Platen of America, ami with view of correcting the f.tle liiipreimloii that eiieiule are endeavoring Hi convey to the uitndsof men who are unitcuualuted wlih Ortuce principles, are tliew few statement made: The l.oy-.l Orange Institution Is a brother hood and sisterhood, bound by three ties- Justice. Truth and lilgliteouNiiesa. It lias no hidden alms It Is Fraternal and Heiieviilent--aislatliig and protecting members while living and their widows and orphans when they are re moved by death. It upholds the right of private Jmlgment--the untrammelled freedom of opinion: be lieves the public schools are an essential safeguard of the state, and should be kept free from ecclesiastical or sectarian Control and that persons dlBloyal tu the government who hold a mental allegiance to the pope of Kome should tie rigorously excluded from teaching therein. It believes primary allegiance Is due to the government which protect the lives, liberties and properties ot Ha citizens, and that ecclesiastical authority should ant' under any circumstances, be permitted to meddle In the affairs of state, and that coer cion of acltlteu In the exercise of his or her right of franchise, under the guise uf rellg lju ursylrltUiil authority should be pun ished as a crime against the state. That It Is the duty of every citizen to de fend the lawfully constituted authority and Institutions of our count ry against corrupt and Inimical lniluences, as well as against armed assailants, to the end that our glori ous freedom be protected and transmitted unimpaired to posterity. It encourages habits of frugality and In dustry among Its members, and is proud to boast that Orangemen seldom become a public charge or accept pauper bread. It believes In the restriction of Immigra tion and the extension of time for the natur alization of citizens, and that the public ands shall be held for actual American clll lens wlio become settlers. Tne Loyal Orange lustltutlon of the United Sliiies of America has certain requirements for membership: That a man shall be an actual American citizen, having compiled with the lawsof the United Mates wtth regard to naturalization, and without a mental reservation. That, the applicant shall be a Protestant, and also that his parents and wife shall be Protestants. Tnat he shall be thrifty and succ-ssful In bis business: honorable and truiiiful In his dealings with his fellowinan, and shall be known as a law-abiding cltizeu. That he will endeavor to give his children or any children under his charge at leasts good common school education, being care ful to avoid all popish doctrines, and That he shall be 111 sound health at the time of making application, it makes no dlifereui e where a man was born, so long as he meets the foregoln requirements. These are the qualifications required o every applicant to the order, and we do not think that any patriotic American order can offers better arravof nrinclples and teach ings. i. U. V. A. M. A.

DECLARATION OP PHI NOI Pl.KS, The National Council of the Junior Order of United American Mechanics in annual session assembled declares: That the constant landing upon the Nhores of the hordes of Ignorant., vicious and lawless criminals of the Old World should lie viewed with alarm by the loyal and uatrlotic citi zens of this country. we amrm a warm ana hcartv welcome to all Immigrants who desire to better their condition and become a part and parcel of our nationality, but we have not one square inch of room for the anarchist, the socialist or nihilist, or for any one who Is not willing to bow allegiance to that Hag which Is uowerful enough to shield and protect them as well as us. in the exercise of all civil and religious liberty. we amrm our devotion to the public school system of this country. We believe In com pulsory education, and that all teaching In our schools should be in the r.ngllsh lan guage, to the end that future generations may be able to take their place in the ranks of our country's workers, educated In the history, the customs and manners of Ameri cans. We guarantee to every man the liberty of worshiping God according to the dictates of his own conscience, and would give everv as sistance to protect all in the exercise oi his liberty, but we object most strenuous to the Interference of any church, no matter under what name It may exist, In the tem poral affairs of this country. vVe believe that the Bible should be read in our public schools; not to teach sect arianism, but to Inculcate Its teachings. It Is the recognized standard of all moral and civil law; we therefore believe, thai our children should be educated in its teachings, but that no dogma or creed should be taught at the same time We believe that patriotism and love of country should be Instilled Into the heart of children, and that, with the words of "Mother." "Home" and "Heaven." our chil dren should be tauirht that our flag Is the symbol of all that makes a "home" for us. We would place a nag upon every public school In our land, and a Klble within, and the object lesson therein set forth should be a beacon light In every storm which threat ens to engulf us. In this noble and patriotic work we ask the cordial and hearty co-operation of all good citizens. In this grand work we need the helping hand of all organizat ions holding the same views and principles. We have no time for Jealousies and bickerings, but with a united front we should march forward, shoulder to shoulder, remembering that "United we stand, divided we fall." In the strictest sense we are a national polltl 'al organization, but we oppose with unanimity the slightest taint of partisan lNin. "Our country" is our motto, and we keep this motto steadily before us. We are cogni zant that there are great and powerful enemies within our midst, requiring the strictest surveillance ot all who are at heart, word and In deed Americans. We. as members of this Order, attlrm our allegiance to the objects of the Order as paramount to any partisan affiliation, and urge upon the mem bership harmonious, united and intelligent action In carrying out the principles. OBJECTS Or THE ORDER. First To maintain and promote the Inter ests of Americans, and shield them from the depressing effect of foreign competition. Second To assist Americans in obtaining employment. Third To encourage Americans In busi ness. Fourth To establish ta sick and funeral fund. Fifth To maintain the public school iy teui of the United States of America, and to prevent sectarian Interference thei with, and uphold the reading of the Holy Bible therein.

We would respectfully call your attention to the fact that there Is In this city a council of the Orderof United American Mechanlt to which we would be happy to have you give a moment's thought, and If favorably impressed, would like your name proposed for membership. The Order of United American Mechanics was organized In Philadelphia on the 1Mb day of July. IH15. Its first Inception was for the protection of Mechanics and Working men alone, and for a number of years none but operative mechanics and worklngmen were admitted to Its membership; but the great Interests of principles Involved In Its existence, caused a departure from that plan, and the Order has for years existed and exists today as an order of speculative me chanics, recognizing every one possessed of the birth requirements, who works for a niaintaliiance either by hand or brain or both as eligible to membership, and numbers among Its members men of every profession, and calling In life. The objects of this order are to assist each other In obtaining employment; to encourage each other In business; to establish a Hick and funeral fund; to establish a fund for the relief of widows and orphans and to aid members; and to aid members who. through Providence, may be Incapacitated from fol lowing their usual vocal ions, In obtaining situations suitable lo their afflictions. The membership of this order is composed of white male citizens born In the United States, or under the protection of Its ling. This order has existed for nearly fifty years, and is at present, rapidly spreading through out the United States. As an American born, and having the welfare of yourself and family at heart, as well as that of the nation at large, we would most heartily Invite you to become a member of the U. A. M.. as It Is the only Order In existence founded es pecially to promote the Interests, elevate the character and secure the happiness of the American mechanic and business nan. It therefore appeals to the head and heart of hi in who wields the pun as well as to him who swings the scythe or wields the sledge hammer of the mechanic. In Its councils, a free discussion of principles relating to the fostering and care of the Interests of Indi vidual members Is permitted; but nothing of a political or sectarian character Is ever al lowed to be discussed. It has no affiliation with such Institutions as Trades Unions, Knights or Labor, Sovereigns of Industry, or the like, and desires not to control either capital or labor, as It would be doing a gross injustice to many of its members, who are taken from both classes. The membership of the Order Is scattered from Maine to Cali fornia, and from alt points co ties the glorious news that the Order Is gaining great strength In all Jurisdictions. An endowment branch s also connected with the Order, both national and state, which Insures those who seek Its benefits, enabling them to leave a sum, which Is In all cases substantially and promptly paid, to the dear ones, when death marks Its mem bers for Its own. It seems very strange Indeed that the American does not feel Inclined to become o peculiarly national In his Ideas and as sociations as do the English, French, Ger man, Irish, and other nationalities. Each and all of the foregoing have their peculiar national organizations, and take; pride In ame. Hut the American Joins order aftei order, composed of a mixture of nationali ties, and lets his own countrymen severely alone In the matter of secret and fraternal societies. We would not belittle any of the existing secret beneficial associations. Far from It. They are a power for good In the community. But we do ask him who Is to the mauor born to turn his thoughts to home and native land, so that he can oin In the glad refrain: "Thou art my native land. 1 own thy fostering hand; Though far from thee I roam, Still thou art my home." Americans, we of this Brotherhood appeal to you to aid us In this work we are now carrying on. You must either be for us or against us. Choise quickly and let us show to the country that we Hrtuly believe In American prlncloles, American Industry, American protection and American govern ment. Strikes riots and boycotting are terms too harsh to be applied to American Mechanics. Bonded together by promptings of patriotic affection, may this Order grow and progress, uutil every man who calls him self American Can stand up and say In all sincerity. 1 own no man as master of my actions.
