Montana is great state, embracing

THE wooDMEN FIGHT.

The M oiine .Dispatch- Thinks Ii secs
Good Ground for Questioning the
July ns well as the june ASSESS
ment
A call has been issued. dated July 1,
for the seventh 1890 assessment on the
Modern Woodmen of America. The
Moline Dispatch thinks this call is ex-
traordinary in more ways than one, but
mainly for the long list OF death claims
numbered from $3.50 to 401, inclusive. and
requiring $4,000 to liquidste. The
Dispatch further remarks:
Several of these deaths occurred as
ong ago as January and February, which
would indicate that the proofs have been
q long time coming in, or that the claims
have been withheld from the knowledge
of the order. But the management was
not satisfied with showing this big list of
claims, for accompanying the call is sent
out memoranda which is altogether
new wrinkle. This memoranda is of
twelve additional claims, after No 4O1.
Three of them are claims aggregatng
complete and under Investigation, and
the other nine are claims on which the
local camps have not yet submitted
proofs. These nine aggregate SEQ. 900
more. aking grand total of death
claims of SOL 900, which the order is
notified of with this July assessment.
THIS big list of claims will doubtless be
used TO show necessity for having called
double assessment in June-which
double assessment has created such a
furore that an independent convention of
Woodmen has been called to meet in
Rock Island on the cath inst. to consider
the mattar, and to take action for the
general good of the order.
From the standpoint of the directors to
the double assessment, this list could not
be taken into consideration. as it had not
been brought to their notice in time 10 in>
huence them one way or the other. From
the standpoint of the management of the
order, this list, if Ii is bona fde new
list. could have had no influence in de-
termining that there should be double
assessment In June. II. on the other
hand, it is list largely composed of
claims which were in the hands of the
management when the June call was
made, disposition is shown to withhold
the real state of affairs-the real number
of deaths-from the membership at large.
1t may be said that many of these claims
were in when the June assessment was
called, but had not been fully proven.
Then why was not the extra memoranda
sent out in June the same as this month 7
Most of the crafta in this neck o. the
woods seem to think that this long list of
claims now sent out indicates that there
has been an endeavor during the past
several months while the Woodmen liz
igation has been pending-to make it ap,
pear that the order has been run with ex.
traordinary cheapness, and that now a
large number of held-bsck claims are be-
ing launched on the order. Some of this
July deiuge might possibly have been
kept till August had it not been for the
vigorous. question asking which the June
doubl@ assessment brought about.
s-H also appears strange to some that
another double assessment is not asked
for July, inasmuch as the list of claims
for July is longer than that for June, for
which double assessment was levied.
