Ths Same Trouble That Prevails in
Royal Arcanum.
Chicago, ILL.,, Sept. There is
considerable dissatisfaction among
the older members of the
Knights If Honor, IL fraternal
organization with a large men, ber-
ship scattered throughout the
United States, over the increase in
the rates which goes into effect
today. According to statements
by local members thousands of
the older members seriously con-
slider the ACCESSIBILITY of severing
their connection with the organi-
zation. The change, which was
decided on some time ago by the
officers of the Supreme Lodge,
differs essentially from the change
which caused so uuch dissatisfac
ton in the ranks of the Royal Ar
canum. 1t affects only members
betwee so and years of sge. For
mer)y all members over so years
of age were assessed So per month,
while under the new arrangement
members of 70 will be assessed $15
a month or zoe insurance; those of
IS years, 81.

The house labor committee yester-
day agreed to report two labor bills out
for passage. The w. /. Nolan bill, re-
quiring engineers of road engines to
have had three years practical expert
ence either as engineers or firemen,
was recommended to pass. Representa-
tives of the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers were present to favor the
bill. 1t is said that its provisions win
prevent the bringing of engineers into
the state for employment in case Of
strikes on the Minnesota railroads, al
though this was not developed at the
hearing by the committee. SN

powers of the state board of barber

pass. 1t will require the renewal OF
BARRIERS licenses each two years. The
license fee is made 81.

on the Bennett bill limiting the hours
Of employment of women in stores to
eight hours day, except on Satur-
days. Rev David Morgan and A. H.

Investigations, and 1t Is expected that
two reports will come into the house

1t will favor the creation Of the office
of a state fire marshal, the introduction
Of an anti-compact insurance bill, and
will declare that the investigation has
demonstrated that the existence of the

panies. Mr.. Ware and A. J. Rockne
are expected to sign this report. A
second report, which will be signed by
w. w. Bardwell and John T. Rosenthal,
will agree on everything in the Ware
report except as the influence OF the

WOODCHUCK is SEEN
House Members Wary of Fam
ning's Gross Earnings Bill

Representative Edward Tanning of
Olmsted proposes a constitutional
amendment permitting a tax on the
gross earnings of street railway COM
panies. In a bill introduced in the
house today Mr.. Tanning offers an
amendment to section 8, article TX, of
the constitution, changing the tax sys-
tenn on street railway corporations
from a direct to gross earnings tax.
He would submit the question to the
people Of the state at the general cleo
ton for 1906.
An attempt to secure passage of a
constitutional amendment to the same
effect in the senate two years ago fail
ed, for 1T was learned by the senators
that Twin City Rapid Transit inter-
ests were behind the movement. Pub
lie service corporations contend that
the system by which the state board of
equalization fixes the taxable value of
their property is arbitrary and unjust
and they would welcome the imposition
Of a gross earnings tax. That the
street railway interests are asking for
the change in the system, 1t is said,
will result in the defeat of the Tanning
bill.

formed children on a site which 1T was
said was to be donated by a st. Paul
business man, but the city hospital au-
