Cedar Rapids, June 1.-The insurgent
members of the Modern Brotherhood Of
America, who met here yesterday to
protest against the increase in rates,
mean business. The resolutions adopt
ted by the convention and the speeches
made by the leaders of the insurgents
left no room for doubling that the
fight against increased rates and al
legged extravagances in the manage

until every state in which the order has
members is organized. The conven-

ton; S. D. Robb, Of Clinton, and DR..
William Fitzgerald. of Cedar Rapids
to proceed with the formation of a
national insurgent association, and to
collect funds for the purpose of carry

The resolutions declared that the
rates adopted at the supreme lodge at
Denver last year. are excessive, with
out Justification, and will drive many
of the older members out Of the order;
urge the converting of the supreme
lodge in special session to consider the
rates: that in the event the supreme
officers fail to summon the supreme
lodge, an order of court be secured re-
quiring the lodge be called; that the
Mobile bill is unjust and should be
adopted by no state legislature; that
the editor Of the official organ be elect
ed instead of appointed: that all mem
bers retain their insurance until the
present troubles are adjusted; that the
present method electing delegates to
the supreme lodge. by congressional
districts, is unfair because it tends
to remove the delegates too far from
their constituencies.
Many raps were taken at T. B. Han
ley, president of the order. and Luther
