of the Fraternal Order of Eagles, now
sojourning in the ci'y, in speaking of
the merits of the order said: "No
other organization exists that meets
the ne?ds of the people as doei the Fra

are so harmonized that the bereaved
widow, the orphan and the laboring
man can participate in the benefits of
the order on an equal footing with the
man of millions. The poor man who
toils daily for bread for himself and
family is considered equally as well as
the man of leisure.
"The sturdy miner in entering the
Order of Eagles is as welcome as the
man with a silk hat and diamond shirt
front.
"The order Is very liberal Id Its
views, but once receivtd we Insist that
the applicant must be a man among
men, (or the order stands (or every
element of rl^ht, the protection of the
home, and everything moral. We do
not tolerate anything that would bring
a stain on the good name of the order.
i
It Is true we make mistakes like all
organizations in taking In new memb
ers, but once we discover an error in
this respect it Is soon remedied. Any
one who is not right cannot remain
with os long."
Mr. Bard will address Skagway 'aerie
No. 25 tonight. The subject will be
"The Noble Principles of the Order."
Every Eagle in this district should
attend.
