NEW PENSION PLAN
BEGAN DECEMBER 4.
When the Separate Voucher System
Was Finally Abandoned by
the Government

Many residents of Lancaster and
Grant county receive pensions from
the United States government, and
these will be interested to know that
through an act of congress, which
recently became law, pensions will
be paid on and after Decem Der 4, 1912
except in certain cases, without the
necessity of separate vouchers or
receipts from the pensioners. The
new law leaves only the rules pertain
ing to the proper delivery of the
pension envelope. 1t directs that the
checks for such payment shall be sent
to the pensioners last known address,
and provides further that postmast-
ers, delivery clerks, letter carriers,
and other postal employees are pro-
hibited from delivering such mail to
any person whatever if the addressee
has died or removed or in case of a
widow believed by the postal employees
to have been remarked.
For purposes Of Identification, the
pension envelope will in the future
contain on its face besides the return
request a notice to the postmaster con.
tanning instructions as to it's proper
delivery.
The following regulations previous
~ in force, will apply: Letters
from United States pension agency
addr 5ssed to pensioner or payee of
the pension of another person must be
delivered to the addressee personally
or to some member of the family
specially designated by him or her to
receive them. If. however. the ad-
dressee has been declared mentally in
competent. they are TO be delivered
only to his or her duly qualified
guardian.
The pension act of last May, where
by every Civil war veteran over 81
years old, honorably discharged re-
ceiyes an extra payment from the
government, was estimated to increase
the pension expenditure for the first
year by $50 O00 900 Present indica-
tions at the federal pension bureau
are that the increase will be about
$40, 600. 600, making next years ap,
preparation bill carry approximately
$3.50, 900. 900 by far the largest pen
sion appropriation in the history of
the government. 1t was calculated
however, that during the first three
years the increased payments would
average $22, 0G0, 900. on account of the
increased death rate among the aging
pensioners of the Civil war. The
abolishing of pension agencies on
January 81, 1918, is expected to result
in more economical and efficient
administration. There are now 538, :
700 soldiers and sailors of all wars
on toe pension roll and 321, 932 de.
pendents and widows The roll of
soldiers and sailors includes 497, 263
survivors of the Civil war.

Cranberry Crop Breaks Past Records.

That Wisconsin's cranberry crop
approximates 1900 barrels, or the
largest yield on record since the
destruction of the wild vines by forest
fires, is reported by o. G.. Malde of
the College of Agriculture of the
University of Wisconsin. Mr.. Made
is in charge Of the cranberry expert
ment station at Grand Rapids, Wis
consin, where nearly 100 barrels were
raised and marketed
Owing to the wetness of the season,
insect pests have not been bad. The
favorable fall of last year, which en-
cnuraged budding of the vines, was
another factor in producing this great
crop.

MODERN WOODMEN
TO ASK FOR NEW LAWS
Insurgent Woodmen to Take Action
at Next General Assembly.
in Illinois.

The insurgents" of the Modern
Woodmen of America are not salts
fed with the Donahue rats controller
bill passed by the recent special ses-
sion of the general assembly. They
are getting lined up for new fight
in the forty eighth assembly. They
hope to persuade that body to write
into the laws of the state an insurance
act which will revolutionize fraternal
order methods.
1t is the hope of the insurgents
that members of other societies who
are not satisfied with things as they
are will join them in this effort to
secure legislation.
Immediately after the converting of
the assembly in January. the legisla-
tive committee of the insurgents
will meet at Springfield and arrange
for the proper drafting and submits
sion of bill ebmodying their ideas
on fraternal Insurance. Sub com
mittees will be named and the mem
bers of the Legislature will be lined
up The insurgents" hops to get
strong support from the various party
factions which make up the assembly.
The proposed insurgent measure
probably will contain the following
provisions:
The election Of all fraternal society
officers by popular vote instead of the
delegate system.
The submission to a referendum
vote of all propositions requiring a
change in rates or charter, two.
thirds vote being required to adopt.
The converting of the head camp
when an Office is declared vacant or a
change is made in the policy of the
order, if 10 per cent of the local
socities request it.
The changing Of the terms Of a
policy or certificate after issuance
without the consent of the member to
whom issued shall be breach of con-
tract and null and void.
The location OF the head offices OF
the body shall not be changed from
one city to another without the con
sent of a majority of the members Of
referendum vote.
These proposition have been approx
ed by some of the leaders of the lin.
surgent" movement and they will no
doubt meet with the approval of the
legislative committee. This COM
mittee is composed of one member of
the Woodmen from each county in
the state.
The Woodmen who are opposing the
rate increase are also expected to make
some recommendations to Governor
elect Dunno on whom he shall appoint
for insurance superintendent of public
instruction. -Galena Gazette.
