On behaif of the Loyal Orange Lodge of ihe l'ulu-,1 Stales of America, and with a rlew of correcting the false Impression that tnemtea are endeavoring to convey to the mlndaof men who are unacg.iialnud with '.range principles, are theae few tatemenU uade: The Loy.l Orange Institution Is a brother hood and klsterhood. bound by three ties Justice. Truth and Righteousness. It has no hidden alms It I Fraternal and Beuevoleut aaalatlng tad protecting members while living and their widows aud orphans when they are re moved by death. Il upholds the right of private judgment--the uutrainmelled freedom of oplniou; be lieves the public Schools are an essential safeguard of the stale, and should be kept free from ecclesiastical or sectarian control and that persons disloyal Ut the government -who hold a mental allegiance to the pope of Rome should be rigorously excluded from teaching therein. It believes primary allegiance Is due to the government which protects the Uvea, liberties and properties of Its citltens, and that ecclesiastical authority should dot' under any circumstances, he permitted to meddle In the affairs of state, aud that coer cion of aclllteo In the exercise of his or her right of franchise, under the guise of rellg Ijm ,ir Hylrllu il authority should be pun ished as a crime against the state. That II Is the duty of every clllien to de fend the lawfully constituted authority and institutions of our country against corrupt and Inimical Influences, 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 uustry among Its members, and is proud to boast that Orangemen seldom become a public charge or accept pauper Dreau. It believes In the restriction of immigra tion and the extension of time for the nalur aliiatlon of cltlxen. and that the public amis shall be held for actual American cltl- tena who become settlers. The Loyal Orange Institution or me United States of America has certain rntiiilrements for membership: That a man shall tie an actual American cltUen, having complied with the lawsof the United States with regaru to naturaiiiation, ami without a mental reservation. Thai iheauullcant shall be a Protestant, and also that his parents and wife shall be Protestants. Ti.ui lie shall be thrifty and successful In his business; honorable and truthful In his deallnus with his fellowman. and shall be Irmiwn as a law-abiding citizen. That he will endeavor to give his children or any children under his charge at least a good common scnooi euucauou, unna inrc f.ii to uvnirl all iinulsh doctrines, and That he shall be In sound health at the time of making applicat ion. It makes no ditfereuce where a man was born, so long as he meets the foregoln requirement.

The National Council of the Junior Order of United American Mechanics In annual anutnn assHinbled declares That the constant landing upon the shores of the hordes of Ignorant, vicious and lawless criminals of the Old World should be viewed with alarm by the loyal and patriotic cltl mna uf t his count.rv. We attlrm a warm and hearty 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 nf room for the anarchist, the socialist ornihlllsl.orforany one who is not willing to imw alleirlance to that flag which Is powerful enough to shield and protect them as well as us. In the exercise of all civil and religious 11 !)prvy We attlrm our devotion to the public school system of this country. We believe In com pulsory education, anu mat an u'wiuiik in nor s.'liools snouiu ue in me r.imiisn lan guage, to the ena tnat ruture generations may be able to take their place In the ranks nf our country's workers, educated In the history, the customs and manners of Anierl pint. We guarantee to every man the liberty of worshiping Ood according to the dictates of his own conscience, and would elve everv as Istance to protect all In the exercise oi his liberty, but we object most strenuous the interference of any church, no matter under what name it may exist, in the teni mirat affairs of this count rv. Ve believe that the Bible should be read in rinr niiblicsch.no s: not to teach sectarianism but to Inculcate its teachings. It Is the recognlr.ed standard of all moral and civil law; we therefore believe, that our children should be educated In its teachings, but that no dogma or creed should be taught at the mime t ime 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 tauitht that our flag is the ymhni of all that makes a "borne" for us. We would place a flag upon every public school in our land, and a Bible 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 cltlr.ens. In this grand work we need the helping hand of all organizations holding the same views and principles. We have no time for Jealousies ana wc.Kerinrs, out wiin a united front we should march forward, shoulder to shoulder, remembering that Cnlted we stand, divided we fall." In the strictest sense we are a national politl al organization, but we oppose with unanimity the slightest taint of partlsanlsm. "Our country" Is our motto, and we keep this motto steadily before us. We arecoenl tant that there are great and powerful enemies within our midst, requiring the strictest surveillance of all who are at heart, word and In deed Ameruant. We. as members of this Order, affirm our allegiance to the object of the Order as paramount to any artisan afliliatlon. and urge upon the mem bership harmonious, united and Intelligent action In carrying out the principles.

We would respectfully call your attention to the fact that there Is In this city a council of the Order of United American Mechanics, to which we would be happy to have you give a moment's thought, anil 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, 1H45. 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 lo its membership; but the great Interests of principles Involved In it 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 inalutaluance either by hand or brain ur 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 obtalnlngeiiiployment: toeucourage each other in business; to establish a Hick and funeral fund; to establish a fund for the relief of widows and orphans aud to aid members; and to aid members who. through 1'rovldence. may be incapacitated from fol lowing their usual vocations, lu obtaining situations suitable to their allllcllons. The membership of this order Is composed of white male citizens born in the United States, or under the protection of Its flag rhls order has existed for nearly fifty years. and Is at present, rapidly spreading through outthe United States. Asan American born, and having the welfare of yourself a id family at heart, as well as that of the nation at large, we would most heartily Invito you to become a member of the U. A. M., as It Is the only Order In existence founded es peclally to promote the Interests, elevate the character and secure the happiness of the American mechanic and business man It therefore appeals to the head and heart of him who wields the pen as well as to him who swings the scythe or wields the sledge hammer of t he mechanic. I n lis councils, a free discussion of principles relating to the fostering and care of the Interests of Indi vidual members Is permitted; but nutblng of apolitical or sectarian character is ever al lowed to be discussed. It has no afliliatlon 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 all polntsco nes ihe 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 F.nglish, French, Ger man. Irish, and other nationalities. JEach and all of the foregoing have their peculiar national organizations, and take; pride In same. But 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 lu the community. But we do ask him who Is to the manor born to turn his thoughts to home and native land, so that he can oln In the glad refrain: "Thou art my native land. I own thy fostering hand; Though far from thee 1 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 ot against us. Choose quickly and let us show to the country that we firmly believe In American principles. American Industry, American protection and American govern ment. Strikes riots and boycotting are terms too harsh lo be applied to American Mechanics. Bonded together by promptings of patriotic affection, may this Order grow and progress, until every man who calls him self American can stand tip and say In all sincerity. I owu no man as master of my actions. LODGE DIRECTORY, NEBRASKA. st tc oii'Ki ii or toHiit: H ' -VM K kNAI'l'. ' o li.. ; Vi iin.aha. H. V. C- II I- II Mil II.' Il I'latistiiouth. 8 !. Om-v.-4.KU. C.
