A. 0. U. US ANNUAL MEET
The Supreme Lodge win be Held at
Portland, Oregon.
A Proposition to Advance the Rates
Over So Years to Be Considered.

Portland, Ore, June 9-Members
of the supreme lodge of the Ancient
Order of United workmen are here for
their annual meeting, which begins
tomorrow and continues for ten days.
The A. o. U. W. is the original fra
ternal cooperative association in
America, was organized by John
Jordan Upchurch in August, 1858,
and now numbers over 400, 900
members. The supreme lodge is com.
posed of representatives from all the
states and territories and several Of
the Canadian provinces.
The question of most vital import.
ance to come up before the present
meeting is the proposal to advance the
rates Of insurance over the age Of So.
About six years ago the order revised
the plan adopting q step rate, and
making the initial rate mp to 25 years
sl.a0 a month per 81, 00o and the top
limit So. s5. for all ages above 90. II
is now proposed to raise the rate for
over So years to between 81. so and
$4.75. The increase is necessitated
by the fact that the order is accumu-
lating liabilities which it cannot meet
under the present plan. The statistics
show that while the year 1901 was
entered into with q surplus of $40, 900,
and the amount paid into the relief
fund was 1915. 900, the losses amount
ed to over 81, 900, 900, and it took the
assessments Of two of the months Of
1900 to finish up the debts.

HARKE VT, OCTOBER 2 1902

New Hampshire is well in advance
of Vermont In the fact that it has a
well defined caucus law. Down in
the southern part OF the state certain
town with a few more republican
voters than Barre will hold a caucus
this week to nominate four candidates
for reprs sentative. Under the opera
lions of the caucus law this caucus will
be as quiet as church A check list
prepared by the town committee will
be used as VOL as the Australian bal.
lot and the polls will be open until
$50 p. m, thus giving all a chance to
vote. Some day when Vermont sees
the wisdom OF some such law things
will be done here as there. Often eau.
cuses in that state were only scenes of
disorder but the people have revolted
and now notice the change.
