Universatity or Creep —God created the world, and by praciical illustration he has shown us that when forces are method- ical y applied, as iliustrated by the move- ments of the heavenly bodies, His power and glory will command our reverence If, in lke manner, we conform tu the laws that the Creator bas given us respecting our physical and intellectual integrals, ou: triumph over evil will be as fixed and cer taim 48 the maguetic polar influence Felix Boothia exercises over the compass needle If we conform to the teachings of Odd- tellowship, our pathway to heaven will be as ¢ tain as the unchangeable laws of sacreg phenomena.
As Oddfellows we are taught and required to believe in God, the first cause, the Supreme Being ; and all creeds, other than Pagsnistic, seem to agree that there is a Father, Sn and Holy Ghost We have seen the M hammedan, whose faith is firm in God, as devout in the exercise of prayer as ever was evidenced by the followers of the Cross. We have seen the Jews of both hemispheres steadfast in their faith in the same-God that Christians as well as M »- lemstworship ; and even the poor Indian of momadic lite worships the Great Spirit that ereated all of earth, and who moves the starry world.
Oddfellowship is open to the followers of all ereeds, but no man can be a member unless he declares his fairh and unquaiified belief ia God, the Supreme Being, Ruier of the Universe, but the Order has nothing to do with sects, as such ; yet it does ex- pect its members, who believe in certain particular faiths, to adhere to those accept- ed @octrives with inteyrity, aud not play the hateful part of a hypoerite. The Order neither advecates nor demgnds any system of religion, but, on the contrary, it aids, by iusteuction to all its members, in compre nen the majesty of God, and all the priteipl s that are exlculated to make man philaathropic, and to live in humble obe- diemee tothe laws of God. As such a teacher of mural philosophy, every religious sect should encourage Oddfe lowship.
The followers of some creeds object t» the Order as a secret society, because its
peycines secrecy. What are those ~ 1 They are signs, words or, tokens
by Which one Oddfellow can recogn'ze au- other. Theie cannot be any sin in such simple and innocent preceedings. All re- lgious denominations have their secret meetings. Armies have their countersigns and words of recognition. The business man corresponds in cipher, and the tele- graphist is required by statu‘e law to keep invivlate the secrets of the despatches that he transmits. There are no reasons justi- fying religious people in objecting to the order because its proceedings are secret particularly as there are no doctrinal prin- cipals involved in its teachings ; but, on the cuntrary, the rules enjoin every man tu exercise his own judgment with respect to religious theories.
There are no laws of the order requiring a men.ber to adhere to any particular sys- tem of religion other than faith in one God, the Creator of the Universe ; but if a mem ber believes that the prophecy of Isiah has been fulfilied, that ‘* Unto us a child is born,” etc., and if he believes in the birth at the stable of Bethlehem, and that the wise men of the East were guided by the star that appeared to them in the heavens, then, in that case, the Order says to such a member, keep thy faith and hve a life of honor to y urself, a credit to your society, and an example to the world in general Attend divine worship according to your faith.
If a member should cease to recognize the power uf God) and abnegate the majesty of the Creator, he cannot remain in fellow- ship, and from the moment of disbelief he ceases to be an Oddfelluw, and his connec tion with the institution should be imme- diately severed.
It is too often the case that we think our own faith the most perfect, and we alone are right. Bat we in tact know very little, and the more we learn the more we ascer tain our ignorance. We may derive knowl- edge from the humblest creature, and we can witness religious fervor in all nations. We enter a Mahomedan sanctuary of Asia, and pass through a long corridor or passage; on each side are hundreds of shoes arranged in lines This novel sight is explained the moment you enter the worshipping cham- ber. Here we behold the congregation, either barefooted or in their stocking feet, sitting on the fluor, with their legs crossed, earnestly engaged in prayer, exclaiming from the Al Koran, ‘‘Praise be to God, the Lord of all creaturer; the Most Merciful, the King of the Day of Judgment. Thee do we worship, and uf Thee do we beg as- sistance. Direct us in the right way—in the way of those to whom Thou hast been gracious-—not of those against whom Thou art incensed, nor of those who go astray.”
The M.homedan shows by his acts that he is sincere. He suffers for his religion, and he toiis hard to promote it. Heis tanght that he cannot live fur himself alone, but for the bunor and glory of his Gud. The ceremonies teach him to reverence divinity, and his humble attitude at prayer tells of his faith in and complete submis- sion to the majesty of the Supreme Power.
Iu our own churches we stand, kneel and bew eu heads when engay: { iu prayer, in dicati g that we are ioferiz:s, and addressing ahigher and a Divine power. The Jews Matomedans, Greeks, and other worshippers of the one God, exerci-e themselves in the m nner above deseribed. Oddfe!lowship, being

Bad Roads. Sir,—As the serious impediment to travel on our winter roads, by the apathy of over-
seers, is 80 freely conceded by the general public and seldom more painfully apparent than at present, I, impelled, by a sense of duty rather than a spirit of tault-finding, would, with your leave, Sir, address a few words tothe Hon, Donald Ferguson. The sudden and lamented death of the new and late Commissioner of Public Works, Hon. Hugh L Micdonald, whose efficiency and courtesy were proverbial, urges me te adopt ‘his course, with full confidence that Mr. Fergusen will attend to it without delay. At the Five Mile House, St. Peter’s Road, (or more truly speaking, Marsbtield) the ‘rack is not breken or bushed on the main road (as a level-headed overseer in that vicinity used to do it) and was, with the snow fall of last Sabbath and previous days, (1 have no hesitation in saying)an outrage on the travelling public and taxpryers, As the electors are anxious to get the latest news about the tunnel, Mr. Ferguson wiil,
no doubt, see the propriety of attending to this vitel matter, and in the meantime the survey at the Capes can be proceeded with without any unnecessary delay. Should any of yur readers be inclined to think my statements an exaggeratwn, | can refer them toa most deservedly popular and genial clergyman from Charlottetown, the Rev. Mr. Gordon, who was travelling with me. 1 can truthfuily add that he would have retraced his steps to the town, save and exeept that he was nearer the Church than the city, and under avy circumstances strongly vpposed to disappuiut his congre- gation. : J. L. Roperrson. Ch’town, Feb. 6, 1891.

“senator from the State of On- tario.”
(The Empire. )
At last Sir Richard Cartwright has made the meaning of his trade policy so unmis- takabiy clear that he is greeted with ac- claim by a United States’ audience as the future **Sevator from the State of Ontariv;” at last he has won the frank recognition of a foreign people that he is working in their interest; at last, we hope, he has brought home to many of his party the deadly peril in which the country stands from the Op position platform ot Unrestricted Reeipro- city; at last it is plain to all loyal sons of Canada that their imperative duty is to put a stop, now ana forever, toa policy which men of ordinary sense and foresight per- ceive te be nothing short of a dailying with treason and an out and out barter of the country.
So irresistibly did the arguments of Sir Richard Cartwright in favor of s»-called Unrestricted Reciprocity, at the Buston banquet on Friday night, appeal to the understanding of his hearers, that one of the approving listeners, Mr. Bullock, Pre- sident of the Atlanta Chamber of Cuom- merce, rose and said : “The ready read to Reciprocity with our neighbors is to accept Sir Richard Cartwright as a senator from the State of Ontario,” thus putting inte plain Saxon the real aim and literal mean- ing of the Opposition policy, which pro- poses in one form or another to vindicate the ‘‘oneness of this coutinent’” by annex- ing the Dominion to the States, so that the present leaders of the Opposition may take up their permanent abode at Washington, iustead of being at the expense of temporary hotel bills, as they are now.
This, then, is the battle ery : ‘fnre- stricted Reciprocity, with Sir Richard Cart- wright as the future senator from the State of Ontario,” and we very much mistake public sentiment in this country if the chal- ienge is not accepted and fought out, if « shock of surprise and indignation is not everywhere felt at the Boston episo’e, and if Sir Richard Cartwright is not given plainly to understand by loyal Liberals— members of a party founded long ago and led by loyal men—that his bitter personal spleen, his ferocious hanger for: flice know- ing no restraints, his infatuated egotism, deserve a severe rebuke, and that the time has come for true Canadians to stand shoulder to sh ulder to defeat one of the most unscrupulous and unpatrivtic move- ments that besvtted partyism has.ever en- gendered. Let the loyal Liberals show their power and their patriotism at this juncture, let them crush and defeat this un- worthy policy aud vindicate themselves fur- ev-r from the charge of favering the move- ment to mike this misguided man the **future Senator from the State of Onraric.’ niceties tenia ttiataiaaarenmesinn
