Grand Representatives

GRAND REPRESENTATIVES

WITH a few exceptions , each of the Masonio Graud Lodges of this country has adopted the system of appointing a Grand Representative near all the other Graud Lodges . At a general rule the representative is a member of the Graud Lodge to whioh he is accredited , aud iu most instances at the time of his appointment oue of its Graud Officers . The appointing power is given to tho Grand Master , who issues credentials to tho representative , duly attested

by the Graud Secretary and the great seal of the Grand Lodge he is to represent . This document he presents to the Grand Lod ^ e of which he is a member , and he is welcomed as the Grand Representative of the one by which it is issued , and the proceeding is made a matter of record . At each succeeding annual meeting of tho Grand Lodge thereafter his name appears on the records as such Grand

Representative . The above gives about all there is in the Grand Representative system . Whatever may have been tho design of those who inaugurated it , or how much thoy may have expected to make the system of practical utility , it has evidently proved a failure . In looking through tho printed proceedings of the various Grand

Lodges , ono will find a score or moro ot these Grand Representatives reported as present , but he will find nothing submitted by or referred to one of them in that capacity . They perform no duties of any sort and nothing seems to be expected from them . They are not oven made the medium of correspondense between the Grand Lodges . Their elaborately prepared credentials , signed , sealed aud delivered , amount

in reality to so much white paper . The writer knows whereof ho speaks , for he is the happy possessor of several of these elegant commissions , gotten up in the most approved style . The Graud Lodges are always very kind and allow the representatives to retain them to exhibit to their friends , or even to display in gilt frames in some conspicuous place , if they so prefer . One of the Grand

Lodges he has the honour to represent in tho Grand Lodge of Indiana had a grievance against the latter , but his attention was not called to the matter until it was referred to a committee of which ho was chairman in the Graud Lodge of which he was a member , and contrary to the decision of tho one appointing him a Graud Representative . If the system can nob be used to advantage in cases like the above ,

there is nob much in ib to commend itselt to the favorable notice of our Grand Lodges . It all sounds well enough aud looks fine on paper , and affords an opportunity to bestow a high-sounding title upon those who are so fortunate as to be honoured with an appointmenb , bub if that is all there is to be of it , as a matter of economy it had better bo abolished at once and save expenses iu printing . —¦ Masonic Advocate .
