INsURGENT WooDMEN
READY FOR HARD FIGHT
Expect Vigorous Opposition From the
Old Order.

Hutchinson, Kan.-The "insurgent
Kansas Woodmen order, the Kansas
Fraternal Woodmen, which was
launched at the Hutchinson conven'
ton last week, is ready for fight.
I'VE understand that everything
under the sun possible is going to be
done to prevent out securing charter
from the state board" said Rudolph
Hatfield, head consul of the new or
der. "All of the vast resources and
ingenuity of the old organization at
Rock Island is to be exercised to Grip
pie and handicap us. But we are in
for fight to a finish.
81 am confident that within year
the new organization will supersede
the old Woodmen order in Kansas, and
lead the state in numbers among fra
ternal insurance orders"
The new order will open permanent
state headquarters in Hutchinson at
once. A statewide campaign for mem
bership already has been launched
Within two hours after the constitu'
tion and bylaws of the new order had
been adopted in the convention here
there were almost 500 applications
for membership turned in.
Judge Joseph G. Johnson, general at
torney of the new order, declared that
where camp is unanimous there
would be no question but what the
membership could dispose of the prop
erty of the camp. But in case minor
ity resisted it would be different
81 am inclined to think there would
be question about the legal right OF
even a large majority of the member
ship of a camp taking over the lodge
property if even minority of the
members opposed it," said Judge John
son.
Some of the Hutchinson Woodmen
have checked the matter up to At
torney General John Dawson, and re-
ceived reply from him to the effect
that a minority of camp could pre-
vent any disposition of the camp prop
erty by the majority.
Officials of the new order say this
is not, however, a controversy regard
ing property. There will be no flght
made along that line.
Those who are withdrawing from the
old order will lose their interest in the
real estate and funds of the old camps,
but they are expressing themselves as
willing to make that sacrifice in order
to secure independence, and establish
on a firm foundation, at low rates an
independent order OF Kansas Wood
men.

SHOOTING ENLlvENs CIRCUS.
Anthony Marshal Fired at "His Men,"
But Hit By,Stander.

Anthony, Kan.-Trouble of the NOV.
other night, when Ernest and Pnil
Lear, farmers, residing near Anthony,
demanded reduced admission charges
to circus. City Marshal Carl Brand
is confined to his bed with severe
bruises, Ernest Lear may lose two fin
gers of his left hand, and George Tay-
lor, an innocent by-stander, is in
hospital with a bullet in his leg, as
results of the misunderstanding which
ensued when the two young men COM
planned that the menagerie tent had
been taken down and demanded that
the price of admission be proportion
ately reduced
When the young men made scene
with the doorkeeper, City Marshal
Brand was called. In the alteration
which followed, the policeman was
knocked down, and the young men got
their share of rough handling. The
marshal drew an automatic gun, which
one of the boys took away from him,
and, it is charged, used for a club,
battering up the officers head. While
Brand had possession of the gun, he
fired one shot. The shot passed
through Ernest Lear's hand, grazed
his brothers side, inflicting flesh
wound, and lodged in the right leg of
George Taylor spectator. The ball
entered Taylor's thigh, and ranged
downawrd, lodging near the knee.
While the policeman was being
transferred from an automobile to a
hospital, Ernest Lear escaped. He re-
turned later and gave himself up.

STATE TAX LEVY
SAME AS YEAR AGO
Total Valuation for All Property In
Kansas for 1912 Is $2,748 298, ,9o5--
Total State Tax Is $3,297, ,948.23.

The state tex levy for 1912 is l and
1-20 mills.
The total valuation of all property
in Kansas for 1912 is $2,74S,2SS,9O2.
The total state tax is $3,297 ,95S23.
The total valuation is a decrease OF
over 2S million dollars from the to-
tai assessed valuation last year,
but this is accounted for by the fact
that last year was not good crop
year and last winter was an extrom g.
ly hard one.
The levy of one and two-tenths mills
upon the total assessed valuation, VIII
raise a total of $3,297, ,93S.29 in state
taxes. That is $1O2,041.91 less than
the state tax commission was author
lied to raise by the last legislature
The levy is the same as for 1911.
The fact that the total valuation is
over twenty-eight million dollars less
than it was a year ago is laid to the
fact that there was a falling off in
the amount of personal property. Be-
cause of a shortage of feed last fall
thousands of head of stock were sold
and shipped out of the state. What lit
tie feed there was in the fall was
gone by The first of March. The bins
were emptied of corn and wheat when
the assessor went around the first of
March.
However there has been big improve
ment in Kansas since the first of last
March and if the assessment were to
be made now it is doubtful if there
would be any appreciable decrease.
The big wheat crop and the prospects
of a big corn crop will put the vana-
ton up where it was in 1911, the ex-

AUTO PARADE 70
MILES IN LENGTH
That's What Kansas Automobiles
Would Make If Placed
End to End.

II all the automobiles found by the
assessors in Kansas last spring were
strung along country road, say ten
feet apart, they would cover about sew
enty miles. And it has been reported
that the assessors did not find near
all of the automobiles. They did find
and report 1888, however. The aver
age vale of the machines is $419S2,
making a total of $7,S1S,275 invested
in automobiles in Kansas.
The number of autos In this state
has doubled since the first of March,
1910. At that time there were about
5000. In 1911 there were about A.
900 and now there are over $4,000.
These figures are given in the personal
property statement issued by the state
tax commission recently. The state
ment shows that the total value of the
personal property in the state is $517,-
5O1,901.
The statement shows fewer horses
and cattle and other stock than were
shown last year. That is due to the
fact that feed was scarce last winter
and stock was disposed Of. However,
it was disposed of at high prices and
the money is still in Kansas.
A remarkably small amount of wheat
was on hand March 1-4,131,764 bush
les. A year before there were over
eleven million bushels of wheat in
the state. There were tewnty-eight
million bushels of corn on hand March
l this year, as compared with over
forty-two million year before.
The total gross assessment this year
was $685. ,91S, but the constitution
al exemptions cut off $49,045,927.

Bow Attacked by Coyotes.

Winfield, Kan.-Claire Wood, the
thirteen-year-old son of j. w. WOOD,
a farmer living four miles east of WIN
field, was attacked by pack OF coy
otes the other day. The boy was drlv-
ing home from the field where he had
been blowing, when a big wolf ran out
of a clump of weeds by the roadside
and sprang upon one of his dogs, which
were under the wagon. Claire got out
of the wagon and attempted to drive
the wolf off with a club, when pack
of eight coyotes came out into the
road and attacked him. Frightened
nv the formidable number ot' his as
sailants, he ran back to the wagon,
standing the animals off with his club
ss he retreated, and getting in whip
ned I'D his horses and made his es-
cape. When he got home party
was formed to hunt the coyotes. When
thew arrived at the scene of the at
tack the remains of the dog the wolves
had killed and evidences of strug-
gle were found, but the coyotes had
disappeared. A systematic hunt over
the neighborhood was Instituted ana
several of the animals were seen at
distance, but they managed to keep
ont of range of the guns.

That Kansas Building.

More than IS months have elapsed
since the Kansas legislature appoint
ed a commission to visit San Francisco,
select a site and make preliminary ar
rangements for the erection of Kan
sas building at the Panama-Pacific in
ternational exposition and no action
has been taken. Now Leo S. Robinson,
controller of the exposition is trying
to arouse the commission to activity.
When the 1911 legislature was in ses-
sion representatives of the exposition
commission visited Topeka and urged
on the members of the senate and
house the necessity of a Kansas build
ing at the big fair. Their efforts re-
suited in the appointment Of CON-
mission to visit San Francisco and Sc
lect a site for state building and re-
port to the next legislature. This
commission was composed of Senator
]. T. Reed of Smith county, Repre-
sentatives j. w. Davis of Kiowa and
Charles Case of Dickinson county, to-
gether with c. A. Cain and Zell Hop
kins, two Topeka newspaper men. The
commission never met. No action was
ever taken and none of the members
have submitted a report. Neither was
there any communication with the ex
position commission.

1882 deaths in the state. OF this num-
ber 1.O83 were white, one was an
