The '. M. in tho courso of in
troductory rromnrks said that tho
Antiquity of the Scottish Musous
wight not bo so great as that of
-the English, but what tho Scottish
did claim was based on fact. Al--though
it was olaimod that Eng
lish masonry datod back to tho
.yonr 929 ut York, yot its anotant
history depended largely on tra
dition. SoottiBh lodges won
knoii n to have assembled at lloly-
road and other places in Scollutid
in tho fourteenth and fifteenth
cnuturies. Miuutes of proceedings
began to bo preserved in tho fif
teenth, but all lodges did not keep
minutes. Tho transition from
operative to speculative mitbonry
was of course gradual. In tho
early days tho grand muster had
great powor, including that of
i nnming his wardous. The first
grand master was elected iu 17!)(i,
, whon the uumbor of lodges io
I Scotland wns about one hundred.
I Thirty - threo of these sent dele
gates to tho grand lodge. Sir Win.
St. Clair took tho meeting by sur
prise by rending his resignation
as operative grand master and
judgo, tho title having come to
! him by heredity from the incep
tion of masonry. The Scottish
, Grand Lodge today stood nmong
tho foremost of mand lodges, this
, Pacific Lodgo of Honolulu as ouo
of tho latest organized tiping mini
ber 822. Ho would close by pio-
posmg the toast:
"Operative and Speculative Ma
sonry," calling upon the Depute
Master to respond.
Bro. Ripley iu opeuing said it
was iiiipoitnut that they should
regard speculative masonry ns
oiiginatiug iu the practical iiidus
try of tho oppintivo form. Ho
drow a parallel of the correspond
ing characteristics of both forms
of mnsoury, starting uith the ns
bortiou tluit, ns the opor.Uiw be
gan with Inying uro toundatious,
1 ho tin speculative laid its fonudn
1 tious deep down in the principles
1 of truth from the wmd f Ood.
Proceeding, he iu glowing ima
gery piotuied tho moral Mgnifi
ennco of every pait of a noble
structniH, the counterparts of
which iu speculative masonry
wore its lights that dispelled dark
ness, its sholtor from ilistie&u and
oppression, nnd its defenses
ngninsl history and wrong. Ma
sonry was bringing tho world to
the time whon war shall bo no
more, nnd its glorious record was
being mado where the fight was
against wrong and oppression.
"Our Senior Lodge in this City
Lodge lo Progres do l'Ocoanio "
Bro. Davis being called upon
to respond began with a waim
tribute to tho Frenchman who in
1843 braved tho storms of the At
lantic nnd rounded Capo Horn to
plant tho standard of masonry in
thebe islands. He gnvo a sketch
of tho history of lo Progres and
eulogised King Kalakaun, who
once presided over it, as the man
who by negotiating the reciprocity
treaty with tho United States had
done moro for the prosperity of
these islands than anyone- else
who over lived. Tho speaker ro
feired to the failure of a recent
nnti innsouio congress in Austria,
tho onh country in tho world that
could be found today to Jiarbor
micIi k tiling. In conclusion Bro.
Dnvin praised the demotion ot tin
presiding ofliceru elected for tho
current year by the different
lodges. His speech was nn olo
qnen t oil'oit.
P. M. Biowti of Hawaiian
Lodfp answered f,o well to the
call for a eoug that the company
must huvo another ono. I'.ro.
Ashley nccouipnnied linn on tho
piano, as ho did theothei vocalists
of the ovnning.
"Hawaiian Lodge" was pio
posed and honored as tho parent
of Pacific.
W. M. Gillillau replied, sayiiig
ho had listened to tho statements
of the antiquity of tho Scottish
and tho Yoik rites, but poiutiug
to tho stars nnd stripes behind
him ho spoke of that ling as bo
ing his stimulus to enthusiasm on
tho occntiou. "Breathes there n
man iitli Mini so dead, who never
to himsolf hath said This is my
own, my native laud." It was tho
flag ovor tho Grand Lodgo of
California under which Hawaiian
was organized, and his lodgo had
never any roasou to complain of
tho treatment it received from its
progenitor. Ilawaiiau was tho
mothor of Pacific and they could
not holp thinking of it when thoy
iookcu nrounu on tlio old faces.
Yot thoy wore glad of
tho birth of tho Pacific. It wus
proposed the other night, "Lot
us bury tho hatchet." For his
part ho meant to keep the hatchet
buried. Tho institution of Paoific
Lodgo had boon a benefit to Ha
waiian, awakening its members to
emulation and fresh zeal. By
tho cuttiug olT of ono branch tho
roots gained greater life. It might
not bo -known to all presout that
they must suffer auother branch
to bo cut off, to form Kilauea
Lodgo at Hilo. Iu concluding
his highly applauded remarks,
tho speekor invited membors of
'other lodges to visit old Hawaii

"Tho Square and Compass
principal emblems of moboury,"
uas tho next proposal.
, Bro. E. I. Spalding in response
spoko to tho following effoct: Of
tho various emblems which havo
been selected by the Masouio
Fratornity, nouo havo more cou-
I stunt uso or more important sig
nificance iu tho ceremonies of tho
Lodgo than tho square and com
passes. The uso of thoso im
plemouts, or representations of
the same as symbols, is of groat
antiquity, and not confined to
Mnsonary alone. Iu tho ancient
Egyptian tho compasses stood for
tho letter "F," and in the oldest
Chaldoau tho square and com
passes united ropresouted tho
letter "H." In speculative Ma
noury these emblems arrest tho
I attention at over) btop to suggest
i somo valuable moral and masonic
duty. The square douotes Truth
and Molality, and admonishes us
to act upon the bqunro to all ma
kind. The cotupnsses enjoin d
nil-
is
ciotion, tompernuco nud modern
tion in all our acts and dealings
with our fellow man. How fit
ting therefore tuat these emblems
should be held in such high
esteem by Masons nud also
Low appropriate that the
square and compasses should bo
iioin by Masons as eiiibloins of
those uoblo priuciples wo nil pro
foundly respect, if, iu our f i nil
humanity, we do not always strict
ly observe. Voicing tho senti
ments of our W. M. of Ilnwuiinn
I will say to you brethren of Pnci
I fie, may wo always work togothor
on rue square nun wituin me
bounds of tho compasses in con
tributing our efforts to erect that
mighty Masonic Tomplo, founded
on Brotherly Lovo, Relief and
Truth, bounded by tho four comers
of tho earth, covered by tho blue
vault of hoavou, and within whoso
wido pottnls the weary and dis
tressed may over find shelter.
"Our Visiting Urethron" was
coupled with tho name of Bro.
Umpson of Excelsior Lodge, Sun
Francisco. Ho deemed it nu hon
or to respond, but ho had novor
spoken to a toast at home. Ho
had ofton thought what a magni
ficent structure masonry is. Scat
tered all ovor tho world, dissomin
ating light and truth. Tho ad
vantage it was to a strnugor iu a
foreign land, its care for the sick
and distressed, its burial of tho
dead, wore referred to by tho
speaker, and ho said if tho princi
ples of masonry wore lived up lo
bo believed ono ueoded no other
creed for his sahntiou. Ono of
their lodges iu California had
nearly reached tho limit or oOO,
at which it would stop. Another
was n closo bocond with 100, nnd
the average uns about 250. Sever
al of thu lodges projected build
ings as homes of their own.
Bro. Wright favored the com
pauy with a Hawaiian song well
rendered.
"Pacific Lodgo" uas proposed,
tho chairman regretting his own
retirement from its headship but
rejoicing thnt tho ollice had inlleu
into such ablo hands.
It. W. M. Phillips replied in
substance as follows: For tho
very glowing account whioh our
u oi thy master has given you
about his satisfaction in leaving
tho lodge in my hands perhaps
you will expect something. Paci
fic lodgo hns very little history. It
canuol look buck fifty years, being
only ono year and a half old, but
dut iug that yonr and a half wo havo
winked and, considering tho plnco
woturo in, I think wo havo worked
faithfully and built up n
pretty good sized lodge. But as
compliments nro somowhat in
order, I cannot but give praise to
our Past Master, Bro. Cooper. If
it were not for tho hard work ho
puts into masonry, as into every
thing he takes in hand, tho pro
gress of tho lodge would not havo
been ihnt it is. Tr in nnl nnlw
. that ho has put vim into Pacific
jjougo, uuc overytiniig connected
with masonry in this city: Tho
Royal Aich, whon ho came to
this country, would havo u meet
ting perhaps onco in threo years.
Oh, yes, wo would havo a meeting
and thero would bo a good doal of
gold lace to bo seen when tho
officers wore installed. But if
over you see a turnout of tho
Comm&iulery horo and soo tho
officers in gold lnco you noed not
coucludo that thoy havo earned it.
So far as Bro. Cooper's efforts iu
masonry nro concerned, tho
evidoncos of his work nro
on every hand. Mnsonry
whon Bro. Cooper camo hero was
almost n dead nnd forgotton
science, but whonover ho camo it
received a now impetus. Wo do
not want to rido n willing borso to
death, nud thnt is tho only reason
we let him go. I put in a good
deal of timo mysolf. (Xnughtor.)
Bro. Cooper has put in much of
his timo aud I helped ns well ns I
could. I hopo Pacific Lodgo will
go on during my incumboncy
about a3 favorably as over. Of
courso there is a limit to
tho number of members you
can tnke into the lodge.
Now that there is n now lodge
starting in Hawaii wo will got no
moro mombers from thero. I am
glad that they have a lodgo thero
so that they con h ld their own
meetings. What particular differ
ence is it what lodge wo belong
to, go long ns wo nro good masons
nud practise our principles of
Brotherly Love, Reliof und Truth?
Here the master of ceremonieB
announced a cliangn from tho
formal program to whnt bo might
call tho turn of tho "general pub
lic." Speeches and songs would
bo in oidor, only don't all speak
at once.
Bro. Atwnter mode biief re
marks, followed by Bro. Whiting,
nnd Bro. Bishop gave a song iu
his oldtimo opera bnritouo style,
being loudly oncored.
Toasts were given to tho legal
fiutoiuity, the press, tho ladies,
the young members of Pacific,
etc., eliciting speeches troin Uros.
Votlosen, Pans, Wnyson nud
othcrn. Stories wore told by Bros.
Phillips, Vetlesen, King and Pa
ris, and Bro. Crnnwell gnio a
splendid elocutionary peifonn
auce. Tho company dispersed at mid
night joining liauds in the sing

ON
LUBRICATING OILS AND
CONTAINERS.
The sugar season of 1897 is
at hand, and now that we
have fairly entered on the New
Year it is time to think about
business and making a little
money to spend next Christ
mas. A dollar saved is a dol
lar made, as everyone knows,
and one way to save money is
to use a first-class quality of
Lubricating Oil. To those
who are as yet unacquainted
with the"Colorado"Brands, we
beg to say that while we do
not believe in decrying the
product of our competitors, we
do believe in stating the truth
as forcibly as possible, namely,
that we have the finest Lubri
cants, that for density of vis
cosity, high fire test and per
fect working qualities can not
be excelled.
The Colorado brands of
lubricants are the Diamond"C"
Cylinder Oil, Colorado Cylin
der Oil, Extra Valve Oil, Red
Seal Valve Oil, Engine Oil,
Dynamo Oil and Aachinery
Oils. They are the best and
cheapest in the market.
In addition to the above we
carry a full line of lubricants
and lubricating compounds of
all kinds for plantation and
mill use.
m We also desire to call atten
tion to our hand-painted oil
containers, which are useful,
ornamental and economical.
They hold sixty gallons and
will save their costm a month.
