ij i : ILY 5, 1898sSEMIVEEKLY. l -: " I 7 lets in the p. With a banquet Soma Brilliant Speeohus Made. Paul Neumann as Toastmaster. Unity First Sentiment. Lodge lo Progrcs, of the Mystic Tic, Installed Itself at the Masonic Temple last evening by gltlng a grand ban quet -with about 150 covers. Ouests Included members of Hawaiian and Pacific lodges and brethren from abroad. Lo Progres Is the oldest lodge here. Jts'master,. Mr. C. M. White, announced as toastmaster Mr. Paul Neumann. Mr. Neumann said that ho had tried to excuse himself, from tho pleasant task assigned, but had consented to act on account of his aloha for le Pro gres. He did not like this thing of be ing made toastmaster, because he was compelled to Bpeak on topics not chos en by himself. Mr. Neumann wished loTrogres prosperity and good social times in tho now home. After a num ber of laughter provoking references, tho toastmaster called upon K. I. Spalding to glvo the address of wel come to lo Progres. Mr. Spalding said ho was more than happy to have the pleasure of welcom ing the veteran lodge to the local tem ple. Ancient brethren were glad to meet In hills and vales. Now preten tious edifices aro require!. It Is fitting to celebrate tho advent of lo Progres o the new temple. The hope Is that it will bo happy and prosperous. Social relations have existed between Ha waiian and le Progress. All congrat ulate le Progress on her prosperous -.condition! swelling membership and bright prispects. All should be care fuWo maintain tho high standard of menWrfTilp, to the ond that the frlenSKlow of tho order In Hawaii nel rnko undiminished. UnljKlarcnce M. White, master of lo tttes. Tho speaker opened with aKOt pretty Imagery applicable to the allegiance of the three Masonic lodges In Honolulu. Ho described three streams, having widely different sources but coming finally to a conflu ence with ono lumo and one strength. There are hero three Ma sonic streams centered In this temple, with headquarters variously In Scot land, Franco and California. All are now bended In work for the general welf? . -with no friction, with no riv alry; .ve the rivalry of unity. The spcaj f said It would be the proudest recollection of his career as a Mason that this union was effected whtlo he was at tho head of lo Progres, when the great step in unity was made. Mr. White called on all to rise and closed with this sentiment: "May brotherly loo prevail and every moral and so cial virtue cement us." Thero were responses of "Amen" nnd "So mote It be." Mnsonry Past and Present in the Hawaiian Islands E. P. Dole. As to tho present all can Judge by tho unity and tho good feeling shown at this gathering. A great part of life is the happiness we get out of It, but not,al- together the Joy of such occasions as tho prcsont. Our order Is a groat In lluenco nnd power for good. This orrt cr is founded in something better than King Solomon's Temple. It has grown from tho kindly nnd Just feelings In human hearts. The social problems of today aro many. The ministers tell they can be solved through the church. But there Is a quiet, secret power. It In Masonry. There nro 75,000 of the brethren In the United States sworn to aid In tho propagation of principles of human brotherhood, based on the teachings of Christ. Thero aro other orders working along the Bamo lines. These thoughts and theso works are Masonry of today and Masonry of tho future. Masons that are Gone, but Not For gottenJohn A. Hasslnger. Let us look back to the days when Masonry, tho handmaiden of religion, set her searchlight in the Islands. That was in 1813, when lo Progres was insti tuted by ship captains and others. Then camo Hawaiian Lodgo In May, 1852 Lo Progres, which had lapsed soon after 1852, revived again. In 1895 Pacific was organized. Now tho order stnods here firmly wed with goodly nu .libers for truth, charity and love of feMowmen. All of tho original mem bership has passed away and many of tho men of later days have gone. Some of theso aro burled In foreign lands. Some of the best ' remembered nro Meer, Davis, Irving, Cody, Macfarlane, Knmehamcha IV, A. J. Cartwrlght, Ka lakaua, John O. Domlnls, Wllley and others. Of all it may be said Gone, but not forgotten. Objects and Influence of Masonry B. Ripley, At Paris In 1900 there is totbe held a religious conference. Its objects are to proclaim religious free ilon to reaffirm the cducatonal uses of relixjon, to seek the fraternal union of Amen, to set agalnBt fanaticlsm.to procralm the equality of tho sexes. These may be said to be the Identical objects of Masonry. While Masonry may not be declared to bo religion, it is religious. Every candidate roust be u believer In tho Supreme Being and there are prayers in the lodge meet ings. Masonry has always stood for rllglous liberty. 'Masonry has as an object the inculcation of benevolence. The influence of Masonry Is woll shown In this age of human progress nnd kindness. Le ulers of men In battles for liberty have been Masons Simon Uollvnr, Marcos Bozzarls, Garcia all Masons, Many Maepns havo beon met here during the past few weeks bound on a most laudable mission. We seo at the head of tho government of the United States a Mason. Wo recall Washington, tho Mason. Masons havo nower ates. In Spain it is terminated. One is an en- tened land, the other one of Ignor ance, Intolerance and bigotry. The In fluence of Masonry is apparent because it is founded on the eternal race of truth and Is for tho highest good of man nnd nation. Higher Masonry Brother Kobertson d San Francisco. The visitor paid a high tribute to the Masons of Hono lulu. As Inspector he had been asked some years ago to come to the Islands on a -Masonic mission, but was unable lo do so. He finds that a year from now he will be able to come it needed nnd If he can be of any service. His heart had been won by the local Ma sons. Tho speaker told of his arrival In San Francisco thirty years ago. He became a school teacher and now faced a number of his old pupils. He told of one who was asked to spelt guerilla and wanted to know If there was meant a southern man or a monkey. 'Mr. Robertson said he was grateful for tho courtesy shown him by Hono lulu Masons and that ho was partic ularly glad to meet Paul Neumann after hearing so much of tho gentle man. Mr. Robertson spoke of the cer tainty of annexation and said those who were opposed to It would not find It so bitter a pill as ho a Southerner swallow cd years ago. There was np plauso tor tho statement that all was unity now with the people of tho United States. Mr. Neumann led up to tho sent! men, Tho Prosperity of tho islands, by referring to Mr. II. F. Dillingham as tho Colossus of Roads. Mr. Dilling ham responded briefly in his usual earnest and sanguine stylo, tho while speaking of Masonry and its lessons. .Mr. Neumann spoke eloquently of tho solid union now to e observed In tho United States, as well as the re lations existing between tho United States and tho mother country. "There aro Others" N. E. Gedge, Pacific Lodge. Tho sentiments ex pressed by Mr. Spalding were endorsed and seconded. Mr. Gcdgo was con vinced that tho new union would fur ther tho interest of all. It will be seen how pleasant It Is for brethren to dwell together In unity and cher ishing ihe principle that the glory of ono is the glory of all. Visitor Robertson, who was In forty battles of the civil war, arose again to say that "Yankee Doodle" was now "Dlxlo Doodle" and that the country would bo Incomplete without Hawaii. Tho toastmaster called on Brother nulea, of New Jersey, to offer some thing for the good of the order. The visitor presented a kindly message from his stato and complimented the Masons of Honolulu on their temple and 'work and hoped for a Grann Lodgo of Hawaii. Worshipful Master Little, of Hawa iian 21, was plcaisCd to welcome Lodge lo Progres to tho temple. He hoted that all would co-operate in assisting tho new members of tho house, family. Tho Eastern Star (The Ladles) John Phillips told an amusing anec dote The speaker admitted that he was late, but that his sentiments wero sound nevertheless. This ineetlng of the three lodges marks tho fruition of tho loiig-chcrlshed hope of many Masons. Mr. White announced that tho form nl program was at an end. when Mr. Phillips proposed tho health of Paul Neumann, who replied with witty re marke. This closed the eening. Iron W'orkH Complimented. Hoth the chief engineer of tho U. S. S. Urutus nnd tho U. S. N. Paymaster wll settled the bill said that tho work of tho Honolulu Iron Works on the engines of tho collier had been entirely satisfactory. The men who had Inb- orcd night and day In close quarters wero mentioned ns being good as ever seen anywhere. Tho paymaster was entirely satisfied. .
