RESOLUTION OF RESPECT.
Along the path of every life, death
awaits; none can escape its unsparing
stroke. Not only does it claim tbo?e
who have reached the feebleness of age
hut also those in the unwasted vigor
of youth. Wealth cannot buy it off,
nor honor and greatness secure ex-
emntion from it. The decree has been
issued: "Dust thou art, and unto
dust shalt thou return."
In obedience to the unevitable
summons, one of our number has
made answer, and crossed the bourne
from which there is no return. Allen
Moore has been numbered with the
dead.
As we meet in council to-night, we
desire to pay our tribute of affection
and honor to his memory. Where
fore be it
Hesolved: That in the death of
Bro. Moore, we have lost a member
that was true' and worthy, and high
ly esteemed by his brethren for his
many good qualities,, and his exel
lent character, whose presence we
shall miss, and whose memory we
shall delight to cherish.
Resolved further: That a copy of
this paper be spread on our minutes;
that it be published in our city pa
pers, and a copy be sent to the widow
of our deceased brother, with an ex
pression of our deepest sympathy for
her in her great loss and sore bereave
ment. F. D. Swindell,

The new French-English treaty
iecognizes the possible overlordship
of France in Morocco, and the action
of the United Stages in requesting
Prance to use her Influence with the
sultan of Morocco to induce him to
act in securing the liberation of Iron
Perdicaris, is of like import. We,
too have recognized the possible in
clusion of Morocco in a French sphere
of influence.
France is practically recognized as
the suzerain, and for that reason, if
for no other, she is restive under the
presence of so many threating ships
at Tangier. She will be tlad to see
some of them depart, but this is just
what they will not do. They are at
Tangier to secure the release from
the hands of Bandit Rasiuli of Ion
Perdicaris, and Americhn citizen. If
France by hook or crook secures his
release, well and good. The incident
would then be ended, but if France
cannot accomplish the task then this
country will have to take a step that
means war. Cavalry and a force of
marines would have to be landed,
and the bandit hunted down. This
would not be an easy task, but now
that we have entered upon the bus
iness it must be carrried to an ending-It
is practically settled that this
country will " pay no ransom. The
ransom paid in the case of Miss Stone
probably led up to the capture of
Perdicaris. Kidnapping cannot be
stopped through the payment of ran
oms. It can be promotled in that
way, and this government will not
enter upon promotion of that sort.
Randit Rasuli must either give up
Perdicaris, or else the government
must hunt him down, no matter
what the sultan may do, or France
may say. The chances are good that
France and the sultan of Moroco will
between them find a way out of the
difficulty.
