The Grand Lodge of Illinois follows the abominable practice of publishing the names of petitioners for Masonry rejected by Lodges nnder her jurisdiction—a sort of black list alongside suspensions and expulsions from the Order . Texas and perhaps a few other Grand
Lodges do the same thing . Did it never occur to the minds of these Masons that some good men as live , men worthy of the highest honours of Masonry , are sometimes rejected by one black bill , apparently cast through
misapprehension or some unworthy motive ? It is a great wrong to such men to place a stigma on their character by enrolling their names as unworthy of becoming Masons . No possible good can result from s ^ ch a practice , and it should he abandosed at once and for ever . —Masonic Advocate .
