WELCOME TO THE CRAFT.
In behalf of the warm-hearted peo
ple of Rome the Tribune extends a
hearty welcome to the craftsmen of
the ancient and honorable order of
free and accepted Masons. We will
treat them on the square and our fra
ternal greeting shall compass them
about.
With the trowel of good fellowship
we will endeavor to shape our con
duct so that the plummet of sincerity
shall prove the structure of our mo
tives true. Love shall be the level by
which we demonstrate our loyalty and
under the All Seeing Eye we will re
joice and be glad.
There is no order of superior merit
existent in all the earth. It is the
one fraternity whose mystic symbols
are intelligible to all men, Christian,
Mohammedan, Jew or Pagan. Under
its broad banner of love all may march
in perfect time to the heart beats of
universal charity and boundless be
nevolence.
Its sacred rights and ceremonials
are hallowed by an antiquity of
unblemished consecration to the
good of mankind. Its mystic signs
are guarded by the sword of truth and
fidelity,but through the veil of secre
cy shines with a steady glow the light
of peace.
Amid the revelry of the bridal feast
or the carnage of the battle field its
vows and obligations are forever held
sacred and binding upon those who
have been initiated into its holy mys
teries.
The true Mason forsakes not his
brother Mason under any circum
stances of gloom or glory, delight or
despair. Involved in its tenets are
the most solemn responsibilities in re
gard to uprightness and sincerity be
tween man and man, while gentle wo
man is made the very central object
of that chivalric devotion that em
bodies all that is lovleiest in human
nature.
Whether as fellow craftsman or
fellowmen we gladly greet the stran
gers within our gates. They are wel
come to partake of our basket and
store. If there is anything that they
want which has not been provided,
all that we ask of them is to let their
wishes be known.
They have our hearts and our hands
at their disposal. In the name of all
that is most broadly bountiful we bid
them welcome.
A GLORIOUS RECORD.
Os all the boasted orders of knight
hood, all the time honored brother
hoods, all the benevolent institutions!
there is none on earth that can show
such a glorious record as Freemasonry.
Its origin is hidden in the dark eyes of
unwritten history which only the light
of its traditions enable the eye of the
student to penetrate.
Long ago when human life was de
pendent upon human strength in a
large measure, when the imperative
necessity of some tie that would bind
the hearts of men together was the
only hope of mankind, the light of
Masonry dawned upon a troubled
world. Its origin is lost in antiquity.
Through its agency the splendid tem
ple of Solomon was reared upon the
hill of Zion, and circumcised Jew and
uncircUmcised Tyrian walked side by
side in perfect harmony.
There is not a land so remote that
it has not felt its hallowed influence.
It is all pervading, omnipresent
and in its motives and methods is
founded directly on the foundation
stone’of faith in God.
A man cannot be a very good Mason
and a very bad man. The doctrine g
it inculcates,the obligations it imposes
and the lessons it teaches all tend to
ward the betterment of mankind. In
the contemplation of its beauties even
the outsider, who beholds its workings
as through a glass, darkly, is lost in
wonder and admiration of its accom
plishments. It is not only for life but
for those left behind after life’s fitful
fever has burned out, that its gracious
influence is exerted for good. Silently
and without ostentation it works out
its blessed miracles, and every true
and loyal craftsman is ready to make
any sacrifice demanded of him for the
furtherance of its cause.
The reason is that its cause is just
and its supporting pillars rest upon
the immovable foundation of truth,
faith, loyalty and love.
In the light' of its revelations men
are brought face to face with the won
derful works of God and no man is
ashamed to say “I am a Mason.”
A SAD LOSS.
In the death of Mr. J. F. McClure
Rome sustains another serious loss
and one that is beyond repair. He
was one of those men who make the
world better by having lived and his
work and influence for good were
Incalculable. He died as he had lived,
an honest, upright, Christian gentle
man in whom there was no guile.
Peace to his ashes, and our deepest
1 and most heart felt sympathies to the
1 bereaved ones left behind.
It is not supposed that any one can
understand the beauties and advan.
of higher education who persists
■hsuing the lower learning.
THE . ROME TRIBUNE, THURSDAY. JUNE 27, 1895.
MOUNTAIN RAMBLES.
Beyond the Stars.
There Is a land beyond the stars
Where I shall rest some day,
Healing the scars of the wasting wars
That are wearing my life away;
Drying the eye that wearily weeps,
Soothing the agony sore;
Contentment sleeps in those azure deeps
And my heart shall ache no more!
There hope in sweet and sure release
Each dream shall realize,
And every breeze that swreps the seas
Echoes its satisfied sighs;
Grown pure and strong from paths of wrong
My spirit shall gladly soar,
And I’ll turn my sorrow into a song
And my heart shall ache no more!
Forgotten the fears am the blinding tea’s
That shadow this sin-cursed sod,
Illumed by a glorious llg't that cheers
From the face of the living God;
No longer ahead glooms the haunting dread
The future may hold in store;
Rapt with the beauties around me spread,
And my heart shall ache no more I
Though the night of death fall chill and cold
And the way be dark and drear.
Dawtf shall pnfold with a joy untold
AB I wake in its bi ightness there
"“Fairer than Fancy’s imagining fine
Or Philosophy's deepest lore.
Is the life divine that wl 11 all be mine,
And my heart shall ache no more!
Beyond the stars I shall seek and find
Fulfillment of each desire
That has thrilled my mind in its groping
blind,
With a wild unearthly fire:
Blooming and bright with a new delight,
I shall walk on a sun blessed shore,
No longer to roam like a child of the night,
• And my heart shall ache no more 1
—Montgomery M. Folsom.
An Old Fashioned Fourth.
I have been thinking it all over and I
don’t see why we shouldn’t have a real
old fashioned Fouth o’ July, such a one
as we used to have in the days -of our
daddies. The American sentiment
hasn’t been so strong for many years as
it is just now. The free silver fellows
swear they are entirely American. The
gold standard fellows,, in self-defense
swear they are died in the wool Ameri
can. The sound money men declare
that they are nothing if not American.
And the Masons and Missionary Bap
tists are Americans till they die!
These facts being apparent, regardless
of populism and paregoric, let us go to
work and have a genuine whooping up.
String up Old Glory to the top of the
tallest pole in North Georgia, and fling
its Star spangled folds to the free breeze
of heaven send up such a rebel yell as
will cause the sun to shine down our
throats and warp our ribs. That old
flag is as much ours as it is anybody’s
on the face of the earth. It makes me
feel ill to hear a fellow from Ohio, or
Wisconsin, or up-a-tree, or some out of
the-way place cutting up about it, when
we are one of the original proprietors.
Our Star is one of the first magnitude,
and by the bones of old Burton Gwinnett
those fellows from the Western Reserve
will have to wait till the second table
when it comes to feasting off the fame
of Old Glory. Let ns therefore get to
gether with one accord and celebrate.
It don’t cost anything and there is no
investment from which a man can real
ize so much solid enjoyment for such a
small outlay as in a Fourth O’ July cele
bration.
Let us have an oration. Rome is
blessed wi|h wood, wind and water,
with a lead pipe cinch on the wind. We
have more orators to the square inch than
any town in the South. The only
trouble'we ever have is in a crowded
stage and empty benches because orators
are so abundant that there are few left
as listeners when we sort them out.
We can have wind waves of eloquence
and wagon loads of watermelons, peach
es and perorations, peanuts and patriot
ism till the echoes will go off in search of
much needed rest. It would do us all
good. There is nothing tends to rid the
body politic of so much as a Fourth o’
July blow out.
It has been a long, long, time since I
attended one of the real old sort, with its
fight, frolic or a foot race, its whirlwind
of jubilation and its general love feast
pro bono publico. If we are not careful
our boys will miss that part of their edu
cation, which is for more essential than
Prof. Glenn’s, ungodly examination in
English which he has inflicted on the
unoffending school master from up the
creek, They ought to be kept informed
as to these ’things. They are likely to
miss the finest flavor of our grandest in
stitutions unless these things are im
pressed upon their minds and to lose
sight of the fact that each and every one
of them stands one chance in sixty
millions or so of being president. What
do you think of the suggestion?

Narragansett Pier, R.1., June 26.
The condition of Representative Hitt is
considerably improved since his arrival
here last Saturday. Dr. Hitchcook, the

change has already shown satisfactory
results, and that the patient has had
no drawback since his arrival.
Yellow Fever In Havana.
Washington, June 26.—Advices re
ceived from Havana by the surgeon

are to the effect that there were fire
i deaths from yellow fever in that city
