Change In the Position Of jurisdictions.
Various Notes.
The jurisdictions that have changed po-
sition during the past year upon the basis
of percentage in the entire order are as
follows: From gain to loss, Ohio, Ken
lucky and Maryland; from loss to gain,
Ontario. All Of the other Jurisdictions
have maintained relatively the position of
last year.
There is no advantage to any beneficiary
order in bringing in members who are un-
able to keep up their assessments.
The death rate of the whole order shows
AN increase of .32 from that of last year,
and the assessment rate shows the same as
last year.
1t has been conclusively demonstrated
that no more effective agency could be de-
vised for building up the interest in the
A. o. L. W. lodges than having lodge of
the degree of honor in the vicinity.
The A. O. L. W. is the only beneficial
society that gives its members n guarantee
of the annual cost.
The supreme lodge will hold its next an
nual session at Buffalo.
The supreme lodge sustained the appeal
Of the various lodges in Michigan against
the action of the grand lodge in making
an assessment of ITO when $i.O5 was
enough
The $1,000 beneficiary proposition was
passed by the supreme lodge.
The supreme lodge decided in favor OF
legislation in grand lodges favoring sys
TEN of graded assessments in four classes
1t must be determined by n majority vot,
of each grand lodge.

Extending the Order In the south-su-
preme Council Notes.
At present portions of Alabama, Geor-
gia and South Carolina are under the ban,
and no members are accepted from the
prescribed districts. 1t having been rep
resented to the supreme council that por
tons of this country are healthful, tho
medical examiner in chief was directed to
make an investigation and report ut the
next annual session. Upon hearing re
ports FROM the committee on the state of
the order and the committee on medical
examinations a resolution was adopted
permitting all councils now in existence
in Arkansas to increase their membership
to 200. The two committees named, in
conjunction with the medical examiner
in chief, are to investigate the matter dur
ing the year and make IA report TO the su-
preme council ut its next meeting in
which some course of action is to be rec
commended.
The supreme council decided not to des-
ignate additional repositories, the banks
now On the list being sufficient.
The next annual session of the supreme
council will be held at Savannah.
Tho supreme council appropriated 81,
500 to be expended by the supreme regent
In the payment of the assessments of mem
bers of subordinate councils in cases in
which such councils are weak and unable
to bear the expense.
Upon the recommendation of the com
mittee ON defunot councils it was ordered
! by the supreme council that assessments
falling due ON Saturdays and Sundays
shall not become delinquent until the fol
lowing Monday, and that assessments
falling due ON holidays may be paid Oh
the following day, thus reversing the Gus.
tom previously in force.
Several requests We're made by subordi
nate councils asking permission to confer
the degree of past regent upon meritori-
| Gus officers and members who, for various
reasons, could not obtain the degree in
| the usual course. In each instance the re
| quest was denied by the supreme council.

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting tho worlds best products to
the'needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in tho
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of a perfect lax
alive; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
It has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
eniug them and it is perfectly free from
ev.ry Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs ia for sale by all drug
gists in soc and 81 bottles, but it is a
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup Of Figs,
and being we'll informed, you will not
accept any substitute if offered.

THEY TALK OF TRADE.
Chicago Business Mems Views ON the
Spring Outlook Conflict.

Chicago Business Mems Views ON the
Spring Outlook Conflict.
The opinion among Chicago merchants
in all lines of business. as given in the
Tribune, is that the outlook for the spring
trade is not as bright as it should be. In
many lines the volume of trade is not
equal to that for the same time last year.
The tendency of prices continues down.
ward. and prophecies rs to when the bot
tom will be reached have almost ceased to
be made. The encouraging features arc
that there is a more conservative policy
on the part of the buyers, both in the
matter of extending credits and in making
purchases. There are almost as many
opinions why there is not a more general
trade prosperity as there are firms in bust
ness. Summarized some of them are:
Because Congress is playing politics
instead Of attending strictly to business.
Because there is not free coinage.
Because OF Wall street and the gold
bugs.
Because the farmer has had poor crops.
Because the farmer has had too good
crops and has oycrproduced.
Because we do not receive enough
money for II exports.
Because every one is frightened with
out cause and cries wolf when there is no
wolf.
Because there is not enough legislation.
Because there is too much legislation.
Because trusts aud combinations of cap
ital have killed competition.
Upon only one thing do all agree. Where
ever there is diversified farming, in the
States where everything does not depend
upon n crop or a single industry, trade
is good. In Illinois. Wisconsin, Iowa,
Michigan, Indiana and Ohio, where farm
ers have butter, cheese and live stock as
well as grain to sell, there is plenty of
money and bills for goods are discounted.
In Montana, the Dakotas, Kansas and
Nebraska, where there have been drOutha
and crop failures, and where there is lit
tie diversity Of industries, there is a
money famine. In the Northwest and
west Of the Missouri river travelling sales.
men can scarcely earn their expenses
In the Southwest and South conditions are
reversed, and trade is Unexpectedly good
| Goods are being sold on a narrower mar
| gin of profit than ever before, hat col
l~ections everywhere are satisfactory.

Complains About the Judges.

A resolution was introduced in the Sem

charges made by c. X. Lane, formerly OF
Redfield, and now of Ohio, against Judges
COrson and Kellam of the South Dakota
Supreme Court. Lane declares that he has
been deprived Of his property through a
decision based on Misrepresentation and
fraud and that the judges were var that
it was SO based when it was made. The
original case was an attachment proceed.
ing brought by Boyes Bros. and Cutler OF
st. Paul against Lane for drugs. Lane
has repeatedly made charges, but little at.
tention has been paid to them. He has
made them so publicly that it is thought
best to have them investigated to protect
the good name of the court and its judges.
