ARE NOT ADEQUATE
Major Halves Says Rates Should
. Be Increased. but by
Order Itself.
TESTlFIES AT THE HEARING
Differs With Iowa Insurance Commits
sion as to Manner in Which
Change Should Be Made.

The result of the present hearing be-
fore the Iowa insurance commission
at which the rates of assessments
made by the Modern Woodmen were
under consideration, is of considerable
interest to members of the order in the
three cities. and in fact in all of the
camps of the order. The result of the
hearing will affect only the camps in
Iowa. Major c. w. Halves, head clerk
of the WOodmen. and Head Consul A.
r. Talbot were on the stand before the
commission last week.
In his testimony Saturday, Major
Halves admitted freely that the rates
charged by the order are not adequate
in the usual sense and admitted that
not only had the order itself attempted
to educate its membership to higher
grade of rates, but that such an in
crease will some time be necessary to
make the organization a permanent
one.
Disagree to Method.
Auditor Carroll asked Major Halves
if it were not true that he and the
legislative commission were perfectly
agreed that the adoption of the so
called adequate is necessary. but were
of differing opinions as TO the method
in which this should be brought about.
Major Halves conceded that the audit
or's position was correct. He thought
that the order itself should adjust the
rates, and the commission in all prob
ability adhered TO the idea that the
adoption of the rates should be
brought about by legislation.
The attention of the commission was
called Saturday 10 the fact that Head
Consul NOrthcott had for years urged
the Woodmen to get on a higher plane
of rates, and that the society itself had
conducted an extensive campaign
through lectures and literature, to edu-
cate the members to favor higher
rates.
Hearing Continued.
The hearing continued over this
week in order to hear from John Den
nisOn. democratic candidate for lieuten-
ant governor. in exposition of his rea-
sons why the commission should not
undertake to recommend legislation af-
fecting fraternal insurance
Truman Plantz. the Woodmen attor-
ney, was present but was not heard
before the commission.

Il new play is always anXiously await
cd by everyone concerned IN its pro
duction. For it is a well known fact
that the success or failure of play
can never be positively determined
until the public has a chance TO pro
nouncc a verdict. Many plays pro
duced with high hopes and often at
great expense do not meet with popU-
lar success and are quickly sLelved.
When a play lives through five sea
sons and enters upon a sixth, with
crowded houses greeting ii everywhere.
there can be no doubt that it has ef-
fectually caught the fancy OF the the
atre going public. Such play is Lot
tie Blair Parker's picturesque drama,
Under Southern Skies" From its
first presentation al the Theatre Re
public. now the Belasco thCatre,) in
New York city, the play has drawn
large and delighted audiences. Time
seems only 70 increase its popularity
and each succeeding visit shows its
drawing powers in the increase test
.ng the capacity of the theatres. Few
plays of southern l.fc have won such
popularity as Under Southern Skies
which will be the theatrical offering
of Manager u. II. Taylor at the Illinois
theatre on Sunday, Sept. 80, matinee

baseball, is treason, and shows con-
tempt for the officers and rules of the
national association of professional
baseball clubs, that comes with poor
grace from a member which should be
loyal. Baseball would be in a sorry
condition if all orders and laws for
the proper protection of the game,
were so treated by the clubs affected.
Fortunately for the good name of the
Three-Eye league, it's officers and all
the associations with the exception of
Peoria, faithfully support the national
association and what it stands for, and
will doubtless continue to give it the
loyalty required to keep the game
upon its present high and successful
plane.

of standing room only at the popu-
