This message is a warning, letting you know that dplyr has a few objects (functions in that case) that share the same name as base-r and R's stats library.

library(dplyr)
#> 
#> Attaching package: 'dplyr'
#> The following objects are masked from 'package:stats':
#> 
#>     filter, lag
#> The following objects are masked from 'package:base':

#>     intersect, setdiff, setequal, union

It's telling you that if you apply one of these functions it's going to refer to the dplyr function, not base-r or stats. If you want to refer to the base-r or stats version, you can can specific the package with double colons. For example, check out,

?dplyr::filter
?stats::filter
