The New Secretary of War.
Yesterday morning at 7:30 : o'clock the
tpccial train containing Secretary of War
Proctor and his party arrived at Gllmoro , on
the Union Pacific. At that point the secre
tary , General Schoflold , General Crook , Gen
eral Proctor , Colonel Barr and Lieutenant
Bchofleld disembarked for the purpose of
viewing the several sit'os offered for the now
Fort Omaha , as also a rillo range now located
in that vicinity. About an hour was con
sumed in this way , after which the party
took a special train for Omaha. The party
was accompanied by a reporter for Tin ; BUB ,
who asked the secretary how the Bellevue
alto had Impressed him , nnd , after consider
able deliberation , received the following an
swer :
"It Is a vary nice-looking piece of country ,
nnd would probably not bo objectionable if It
is discovered that u re-locatton of the fort is
necessary or desirable.
"You do not feel Ilka enlarging upon the
subject , then , Mr. Secretary } "
"No. I will have to sit , down and deliber
ate. There are many things I must consider
before expressing myself.1'
"What Is tha appropriation made for this
purpose ! "
"Two hundred thousand dollars , I think ,
isn't it Konor.il , " and the secretary turned to
General Brooke.
"Yes " the latter "f.'Oa.OOO.
, replied , . . one-
third of which U designated for purchasing.
Duriwscs. There are 4AO acres in the tract
we looked at , and It Is hold at f H5 per acre. "
General Crook was also Interrogated as to
what his Idea of the now site might bo , and
said that It all looked very pretty , und might
look much bettor If it was improved with
buildings , trees , shrubbery , drives , wulUs ,
ctc.v
ctc.v'What do you suppose Mr. Proctor thinks
of the location ! "
'Oh , that I wouldn't venture to say. He's
man who forms his own conclusions , and
generally divulges them at the proper time. "
"How about yourself , general what do
you tulnkl1' '
"It Is pretty well understood what my
sentiments are. You have an excellent plant
where the fort now l . To remove it would
entail no good upon Omalm. The moral
effect of Its present site cannot bo denied.
Do you remember the dump riot wo hitd hero
in Oumlml No , Well , it was the locution of
the fort that probably saved the city from
destruction , I cannot see any necessity for
change myself , canyoul"
Of course no opinion was vouchsafed.
In response to uu Inquiry as to hi * jude <
nient on the matter , Go irul Sohollold slnv
ply remarked.
"It Is ull very pretty , makes a nice picture ,
but us yet I haven't an opinion to advance. "
Colonel Burr , overhearing the question ,
volunteered to observe , that ho considered
the site , as fur M nature was concerned , to
bo beautiful indeed ,
"Have there been any of the morning papers
sunl outl" asked General Schofleld , und the
reporter bunded him Tun Hun.
After glancing over It a moment , ho ex
claimed , laughingly :
"Hello , liorc'a a long editorial 'forninst'
this buulnoisl"
"Is that sol" abkcd General Brooke , "Lot
nio glunro utlt , general , " aud General Hcho-
fluid handed him the paper ,
Ho plunged Into thu editorial with an evi
dent eagerness , quickly breaking out. .
. "And yes , general , " turning to Sohoflold ,
"they y that we have corralled you to help
us out. "
Then they all smiled audibly , and Mr.
Cl'trko ' ventured :
"Bui you knew , Rcntloui n , th t TUB Una
s always unhappy , if ho isn't getting nil the
lionoy. "
Than , Mr. Clarke laughed immoderately ,
but subsided on General Schotleld's ' remark
ing , as ho glanced significantly at the re
porter :
"Woll , If TUB BEE doesn't always got all
; ho honey , It never falls to have somebody
iround when somebody else Is reveling In
Iho sweats. "
Again they all laughed.
The party reached the Paxton about 10
o'clock , wucro they met General Drum ,
General Williams. Lieutenant Bliss and Mr.
Partridge , secretary to Mr. Proctor , who
had preceded them. An informal reception
took place in which all the noted gentlemen
were met by many of the leading citizens of
Omaha. Carriages were subsequently taken
and a drive to Fort Omaha in which a num
ber of local oQIcora was taken. The uarty
was received at the fort by Colonel Flotchcr ,
and u review of the troops of tlio garrison
Immediately followed , and still later the fort
and quarters were inspected. At 1 o'clockt
the distinguished visitors returned to the
city and paid u visit to TUB BII : building
under the escort of Mr. B. Rosowater. Mr.
Proctor nnd-his distinguished suite made a
thorough inspection of the new structure ,
visiting each department from the ground
llttar to tha brick roof. All were most lavish
anu enthusiastic in their expressions of delight -
light and astonishment at the magnitlcenco
of the building , In its Imposing ex
terior , nnd oven to the smallest ao-
tuil of internal arrangement. The hon
orable secretary of war was partic
ularly profuse In his praise , pronouncing1 the
structure ono of the handsomest nnd most
superb ho had over seen , Ho ascended to thereof
roof , and spent some fifteen minutes or
moro there with General Brooke , enjoy
ing the exhilarating scene environing this
lofty observatory liUo a beautiful
panorama a perfect blrd's-oyo view of
our lovely city and ltd surroundings for
miles around. Mr. Rosewater was repeat
edly congratulated upon the uniform ole-
gunco ot every dotnll of Tin : BII : building.
Generals Scholiold and Williams joined
with the rest of the party in Its apprecia
tion of the structure , and wore of tha satna
mind that the army headquarters In It were
much liner tliitn those now occupied in the
Pullman building in Chicago. Colonel
Henry was delighted with the roof nnd re
marked that ho could camp upon it , nnd
General Brooke said that it was large
enough to enable him to drill troops
upon it.
The visit of Secretary Proctor and party
brouuht together u number of old compan
ions In urins , the meeting of which was the
occasion of much pleasure. L. D , Richards ,
of Fremont , who was an orderly to Proctor
during the war. came to the city especially
to meet him , Major John V > ' . Barrlger , chief
commissary of subsistanco in the Depart
ment of thu Platte , was chief commissary to
General Scholiold during the war. General
Williams , who was located hero about six
years ago , was mot by a number of old
friandft and welcomed on his Hooting visit.
General Drum says that Omaha Is the bust
n.tvod city In the country , hotter oven than
Washington , because , white there it is all us-
pliult , here there Is a largo quantity of dur
able stone pavement.
Returning to the carriages the visitors
were escorted to the Union club where
another informal reception took place , This
was followed by a magnillccnt banquet , ut
which seventy loading citizens were present.
At Its conclusion Dr. George L. Miller , on
behalf of the club , shook hands with the
secretory and said that no was no stranger
to them. His reputation had preceded him
ana the sound and solid sot of western men ,
gathered to do the secretary honor , gave
him u most , hearty wuKviao und wished him
God spaed.
Secretary Proctor thanked everyone very
much for the kind at.d hearty reception ac
corded , mid went on :
"My companions hero who have devoted -
voted their lives to the service of the
country , anil won such great distinction ,
may well have accepted such a greeting as
personal In it * nuturo. I cannot as far us f
um concerned , bnt I take this murk of res
pcct to an onlcor of the government as an
evidence of your patriotism , and I thank you
in that spirit. I hope to bo able to repeat
this visit and to have more time to spend
with you. "
The remarks of the secretary were vigor
ously applauded , and Dr. Miller voiced the
wish of the company to hoar a few words

The bi-annual session of the grand lodge ,
commencing ut Ha&tings , Tuesday , will elect
ofllcors and effect some minor changes in
the by-laws governing the grand and sub
ordinate lodges of the state. The committee
on laws has not recommended any radical
alteration of existing statutes and none is
expected. The business to come before the
grand lodge will proimbly require two or
tnrco days of attention. James W. Carr
and S. R. Patten , past grand master work
men and supreme lodge representatives , and
the delegates from this city , comprising
William Turner and George K. Butler , of
No. 17 ; Henry Creighton , J. C. Putnam ,
Cramer and N. W. Charles , of No. 38 ;
George Weber , ofOGP. ; H.Johnson of 93 , and
Mr. Jaskolik , of South Omaha No. 00 , leave
for Hastings to-morrow.
A prominent member gave it as his opinion
that a few changes in the laws would bo
made , but that in all probability revision
would cover the work of the session in that
direction.
The committee In charge of the recaption
and entertainment of the supreme lodge met
Friday in'tho ofllco of Dr. S. R. Putton , und
made progress in the work.
In Tun BEI : for April 14 appeared an arti
cle signed "Iowa Workman , " written in the
interest of the suspended organization of the
A. O. U. W. In Iowa.
The article , very properly , starts out with
an apology , mid after calling attention to the
fact that much hail boon said on both sides
of the A. O. U. W. question in Iowa , says :
"It Is questionable whether any good can
como from winnowing the chad of six years
litigation by discussing ttio source of the dif-
ilcultji"
It is not at ull qncstlopablo , Mr. "Work
man , " for you know tliniHho more this ques
tion is agitated and the' ' moro familiar the
public becomes with the1 tuuscs und "source
of dlfllculty , " the less tyour chances are for
securing a populur ' 'verdict , notwith-
ntaiidlng you obtained"1 one from a court
whoso decision virtually < ls that you are uu
insurance company uuriinnd simple.
"Iowa Workman" also aeknoxvlodgos In
bis article that the members of his organiza
tion aru not rccognUcd'as ' members of the
A. O. U. W. fraternity , outside tholr own
special circle. Until now they have been
posing before the public rts a part and parcel
of the great brotherhood outside of Iowa ,
This shows that the troth will out.
The mills of the gods.grind Blow ,
But they grind oxcpCdinc fine.
In view at their tornipr status ana preten
sions , the writer would Lask any one in tholr
ranks , but more particularly the editors of
their paper , the Iowa XJ'-orkmau , to answer
the following questions :
Did you obtain your grand lodge charter
from the state of Iowa or from the supreme
lodge ! If from the former , why was it nec
essary to embody in your articles of Incor
poration the words , "By authority of tha
supreme lodge ] " If from the latter , what
authority had your grand lodge to change
those articles , Ignoring the power and au
thority of the supreme lodge !
Your representatives to the supreme lodge
exorcised more inlluonce in the enactment
of the relief law than did those from any
other one grand jurisdiction , yet the vury
11 rat call under the law for 10 cents per mem
ber your grand muster refused to Issue until
after he had boon suspended by the supreme
master workman , when bo Issued a circular
to each of your subordinate lodges' stating
that a call bad been made for $1 per mem
ber. Prior to assuming the duties of his ex
alted position he voluntarily took an obliga
tion pledging obedience to the edicts and
laws of the supreme lodge. What right bad
ho theu to Ignore that call , or what special
privilege had been accorded to your grand
lodge , over other like bodies , that gave you
the right to violate with Impunity , that or
any other law , and retain , as you claim , the
nnmo A. O. U. W. i
If the order possessed fraternal features
prior to your suspension , wliy did your at
torneys seek to prove the contrary ! If they
were not in existence , tnon why do you
claim thorn now , in seeking to impress the
public with the iden that you were a
part and parcel of that great brotherhood ,
to bo found throughout every portion of the
United States and part of Canada'
Has the decision of the supreme court , of
which you are so proud , and upon which
you lay so much stress , restored you to any
of the privileges forfeited by
yonr suspen
sion } If so , please state when and what
privileges were so restored !
If you are a part of that great brotherhood ,
nnd believed in fraternity , ns you profess ,
would you still sneeringly refer to a portion
of it as Gralmmitos !
It is well known that W. n. Graham stands
high in the councils of the order , and is the
present foreman of the supreme lodge.
Our numbers now approximate 820,000
members , all of whom are boliovcrs in the
spirit and practice of fraternity , upon which
foundation this michty structure has-been
buildcd and will bo perpetuated.
