grand officers of the order paid the
taxes in 1908 under protest.
In 1900 the legislature passed law
exempting the reserve funds of lodges
from taxation. This law has never
been in force in Shawnee county, as the
board of county commissioners has
never instructed the assessors not to
list the reserve of the lodges.
The payment of IS, 1896 in taxes in 1903
was made under protest by the officers
of the Security lodge in order that at
any time when the matter came to an
issue that the grand lodge could claim
the money paid, and if the law of 1900
was sustained by the supreme court
that the treasurer of Shawnee county
would have to return the amount to the
Security lodge. The payment of taxes
on the reserve fund for all years since
1900 have been made under protest for
the same reason.
In some other states the reserve
funds of the insurance lodges are ex-
empt from taxation. This is true of
Nebraska and the reserve fund of the
Woodmen of the World at Omaha
This year the grand council of the
Knights and Ladies will meet, and
President Kirkpatrick announced to the
commissioners that unless the reserve
fund was left off the tax rolls that the
headquarters of the order might be
moved to some other state. where the
reserve fund would be exempt by law,
by a vote of the grand council.
Mr.. Kirkpatrick requested the com
missioners to instruct the tax assessors
not to place the reserve fund of the x.
& L. of S. on the tax rolls and thereby
avoid any legal contest and adjust the
matter amicably. The commissioners
decided that the matter should be first
referred to the county attorney for his
opinion
