A LESSON IN FREEMASONRY.
An object lesson of brotherly love has recently been exempli-
fed in our midst. \Yhile the'occurrence is supposed to be one of the
secrets of the local lodge, the affair has nevertheless been a topic
of public comment for the last two months. A brother in distress
is not cast aside as soon as a calamity overtakes him, but instead
the helping hand is extended, the mantle of charity is thrown about
him and financial aid is not denied or refused. All this and more
is the mission of Masonry and what it has done in Oakland. We
know of not a few societies that part company with their members
.vhen criminal charges are lodged against them. ■ Especially is this
true of some Negro lodges. In the time of trouble and distress they
run to cover; they scurry to the tall brush and leave their brother
to his fate. Would it not be better is they could practice some of
the virtues extolled in Freemasonry.

The visitors are here and more are coming. Are we ready? Yes,
the Masonic and Foresters' Grand Lodges have done nobly by
their delegates. Now let the others do as well. We are quite sure
that the Women's Federated Clubs and the Bethel A. M. E. Con-

INGRATITUDE.
Of the many human being that trod the soil, there is no class of
them that receives less commendation for the effort put forth than
the newspaper editor. He is expected to stand on the walls of
Zion and sound the alarm; must be on hand at all public functions;
make an announcement of all approaching events; must criticize,
but such criticism must be favorable without regard to the facts.
If she sang well, say she was charming; if she made a failure, and
everybody else said so, the paper must say the opposite to be pop-
ular. But on the other hand, there is hardly ever any praise sent
our way. The editor is seldom or ever thanked for the nice things
said and the bad things he left unsaid. We call this ingratitude.
What is worse and more scornful than an ungrateful friend ?—he
that returneth no thanks for favors shown.
Travel in the Travelers and travel right and be protected by
the best insurance in the world.

We had hoped that the officers of the United Hall Associatio
would have taken advantage of the raise in the rent of the lodge-
rooms in Foresters' Hall to have taken on new life and new im-
petus, and also to have taken advantage of the discussion in the
open columns of the Sunshine, which would have no doubt stirred
up new interest and would have turned the searchlight of publicity
and comment in this direction. Without great publicity and much
comment few such enterprises succeed. We are the originators
of the last movement seeking to erect a Fraternal Hall and we
would certainly do nothing that would hinder the promoters in gath-
ering in the stock, but we have a decided opinion that more pub-
licity is needed, and we make the suggestion now that we hope the
advice will be accepted in the spirit in which it is given.
A NEW CENSUS.
This office is in receipt of the latest census of the Negroes in
the United States, and the figures as given for Alameda County
fall short o# the generally accepted estimate of 5000. We will loan
the report to any reliable person for a few days at a time for their
perusal and for historical reference.
Thursday, June 10th, Alameda County Day at the Panama-
Pacific Fair, will be a day long remembered. Everybody shut up
shop and hied themselves across the channel to the big Exposition
grounds. The industrial parade of the county started at 10 a. m.
sharp and proceeded to Van Ness avenue, out that thoroughfare to
the eastern gates of the grounds. Among the many attractive floats
were those decorated with cherries from San Leandro and vicinity,
the float of the Colored Women's Clubs and the Negro school chil-
dren, with about fifty little tots in uniform, with Miss Virginia
Stevens, the young Miss that had the naming of the Fair grounds as
The Jewel City." As very few of our white friends knew that Miss
Stevens was colored, the clubs took this means to inform the public
by a large banner of her presence in the float and her nationality.
Both floats were a credit to the race and to the Negroes of Alameda
County. No float in the parade discounted that of the ladies, with
their Japanese parasols, and the children looked beautiful and happy.(
All of which further demonstrates that it takes the women to do
things up brown. The Masonic Grand Lodge delegates turned out
in a body as the session was about over. The attendance must have
about doubled, as also the gate receipts. It was indeed a great day
for our county and especially our people.
Chaplain Scott. U. S. A., and Mrs. Scott, Mrs. Boyer of San Jose
and others dined at the residence of Harry Richards on Grove street
last \\ ednesday. Chaplain Scott visited the Fair on Alameda Day
and was met by Prof. Chas. Alexander, who is under salarv at the
grounds.

Nashville, Tenn.—An announcement
was made by the National Negro
Doll Company that their rush sea-
son, which it usually has during the
Christmas, is just now on. This is
occasioned, declares the manager of
the company, on account of the delay
in the importation of material from
which these dolls are made. The
ship was caught and held as a prize
of war and was only recently released,
hence the material did not reach
Nashville until Christmas day. But
the people, says the manager, were so
determination to have the size dolls
they wanted that they all replied,
w,U wait to ®et the biS dolls."
While hundreds of small dolls we re-
sent out, the manager declares that it
was surprising to note that the people
wanted the dolls ranging m sizes
from seventeen to thirty-six inches.
J he orders are be-.*g rapidly sent out.
Many of the churches have sent in
orders that thej might conduct their
bazaars. Dolls will be shipped
throughout the .year, declares the
tnauager of the Doll Company, as we
are ready to fill orders as they come.
