WOODMEN REVOLT THREATENED
Boost in Rates, However, Not Yet
Discussed in Bemidji.

Although there has been no ex-
preston by the Bemidji camp of the
Modern Woodmen over the action of
the national body in increasing in
surance rates, it is evident that the
same spirit does not exist over the
entire country. The following from
the Minneapolis Tribune will be Of
interest to many who have been
watching the movement in the lodge:
According to John L. Sunbeam,
leader of the insurgent element Of the
Modern Woodmen of America, oppos-
ed to the increase of insurance rates
adopted by the recent Chicago con-
vention, Modern Woodmen camps in
many states may secede and endeavor
to maintain independent Woodmen
organizations.
"The increased rates will make. a
difference of about $4,000 a month
to the 1000 Woodmen in Hennepin
county alone" said Mr.. Sunbeam.
IuC AuSu1 ScuLS ulu llCL have d. ltlI
show at the convention, and, already
st. Paul insurgents are working a
deal to bring about the withdrawal Of
Minnesota Woodmen in a body.
While the rate increase was vot-
ed through by 153 majority, 4 am
positive that two-thirds of the dele
gate were and are opposed to the
plan. They were simply overpow-
cred. s 81 s
"As the leader Of tile opposition,
I do not blame any state for seced-
ing, because the administration fore
es would not listen to any comprom-
Use, but forced it through. However,
unless Woodmen in given states are
permitted under the law to operate
under lower table of rates, we adj
wise them to stick to the ship. z

establishments of an Independent

Blackduck Man Caught Red Handed

den Sherman G. Bailey of this city.
Bates pleaded guilty and was given a
sentence of $50 or 80 days in jail.
He chose the latter and is now locked
up at the county jail here s
Game Warden Bailey had learned
that slaughter of deer was going on.
At this time of the year the animals
are shedding their horns and are I'M
usually tame. They are present in
large numbers and are easily shot.
Proceeding to Blackjack Mr.. Bal

alta sled on which rested three-quar-
tiers of a carcass Of a fne buck deer.
Efforts Of Bates to deny that he
had shot the animal failed and he
finally admitted to the game warden
that the remaining quarter of the
animals was at his home. His arrest
and sentence quickly followed.
TT is true said Mr.. Bailey to-
day, ''that there is deer present in
large numbers in different parts of
the county. They do not appear to
fear human beings at this season and
for that reason it is easy to kill
them. Because of this tameness we
are taking extra precautions to pro-
