FRATERNAL ORDERS.
Many Are D~isagreeably Afrected by
O South Dakota Oninion.


Attorney General Pyle has furnished
to Insurance Commissioner Schober an
opinion on which the insurance depart
ment will act and which means a great
deal to all fraternal insurance companies
doing business in the state. His hold
ing bears on chapter 81, laws of 1890, in
relation to taxation of insurance compa-
MES. This law provides that all foreign
insurance companies doing business in
the state shall pay a tux of 214 per cent.
of all premiums collected in the state in
to the state treasury in lieu of ali other
taxes, and that all assessment companies
shall pay 2 per cent. of their assessments
in lieu of all othertaxes. This law fur
Their provides that its provisions do not
apply to secret benevolent or fraternal
societies which pay sick or death bene-
fits to widows, orphans or relatives of de-
ceased members.
The attorney general, being called up
on by the insurance department for an
opinion, holds that the exemption pro-
vision applies only to such societies
which pay benefits without so doing un-
der an insurance contract, and that all
such societies which issue a regular in
surance contract must pay the required
. per cent. on all assessments.
The back taxes due the state under
this provision for the past FIVE years will
run up into the thousands and may go
as high as $4,000 on all the different as
sessment companies. 1t is not at all
likely that the societies will pay this tax
without IL suit, but the matter will he
brought to Il test, us the insurance COM
missioner will demand the back taxes un-
der the ruling he has received.

Rear Admiral Crowninshield, chief o.
the bureau Of navigation, has come TO
take the view that he has been violating
the naval personnel law. He Is at work
on a general order, shortly to be issueos
which will repair some of the damage
which has been wrought by tae failure
to nave the engineer officers attached TO
ships of war. The order will esquire that
two line officers shall be detailed on board
each ship in commission. as assistants TO
the chief engineer, for service in the en-
CINE and fire room. The officers serving
in this way will be assigned so as to nave
the detachments occur alternately, once
in six months. 1t has also been decldeo
that line officers shall be detailed to duty
with chief engineers, especially during
the o%verhauling and repairing OF shlpS
of war, and it is likely that there will be
q detail of officers to duty in the bureau
of steam engineering, where the e3perl-
ence and information gained Will De OF
great value to line officers destined for
engineer duty on board ship. This sehefal
order is the result of the reports received
at the Navy Department in regard to the
deterioration of machinery on ships or
war. 1t has been found that this deterl-
Grafton is more extensive than naval au-
thorities have realized. \ number OF IN.
stances nave occurred in the last year to
demonstrate that the failure to proVl0e
vessels of war with naval engineers is q
great mistake, and if the situation con-
tinues without relief there is every chance
that it would not be long before Con-
gress was compelled to resort to lcslsi%e
tion to r%e-establish the engineer corps.
