OHIO PROBATE JUDGE
 EXPRESSES PLAIN OPINION

Dayton, Ohio, Dec. 5-Ohio's Mothers Pension law Is working, but it's only working in Dayton and Montgomery county. Mothers of thi city and all of Montgomery county are thanking Judge Roland w. Bag gett, for he's the man that made it possible for needy mothers to profit now, instead of waiting until Febru- ary, 1915, at which time Attorney General Hogan says that the newly enacted Ohio Mothers pension lev ies can be paid.
 Here is what Judge Baggett has ruled that property owners of Day ton and Montgomery county must do for the mothers: Every man who owns one thousand dollars worth of property, must contribute ten cents a year. Every corpora tlon that has $1OO,OOO worth of property must contribute $1O.O0 a year. Dayton is Gov. Cox's home county.
 "Gov. Cox can talk a lot about the humanitarian features of the workman's compensation law, and everything he says is true" de- clares Judge Baggett, "but the mothers pension law is just as good in it's sphere and Montgomery county will be the first to give it a trial" The project was bitterly fought by many whom Judge Bag gett called "ughtwads and knock CTS" But he said to them:
 "Yes, you've got $5O,OOO worth of property or more bringing you in good income and you're whining be- cause you have to pay $5 a year to a fund that will enable Us to keep more than four score mothers and children together. You old whelps, you ought to be ashamed of yourselves" That's the way Judge Baggett talked to them and they come through. And now Montgom- cry is the only county in Ohio that's helping its mothers. Judge Bag gett says Dayton will continue to do so indefinitely regardless of the At torney General or whatever the other counties in the state may do. Now he's going a little further. He's going to ask the legislature this winter to pass a measure allow ing every county in the state to is sue short time bonds for money to pay mothers pensions.

Rock Island, H., Dec. 5-The final desperate battle between the head camp officers and the ranking members of the Modern Woodmen 0 America over the question of an in- crease in the rates of insurance in the order, which during the past two years has been marked as the bitterest struggle in the history Of fraternal orders in America, will be fought out in the seventeenth trien- nial meeting of the order at Toledo, O., June 16,1914. According to an- nouncement of the executive coun- cil fom the head camp officers here. The council, having set the date, is making preparations for the biggest meeting in the history of the order. Fully 10000 members will attend, drawn by the struggle which they claim involves the very life of the organization.
 The rate question was first rais- ed in it's present form at the trien- nial meeting at Buffalo in 1911. Ac- tion was postponed until the winter, when a special meeting of the head camp was held in Chicago, and a readjustment of rates voted. All the rates are higher than those hitherto prevailing, and those for the older members of the order are three to nine times higher. Through out the country, and esecially in the states of Illinois, Iowa, Kansas and Missouri the rates were strong Iy resisted. Several test cases were brought in circuit courts, resulting in ipjUnctions against enforcement of the new rates on the ground that they were not imperative to the financial safety of the order, that since the benefits of the organiza- ton are mutual and reciprocal, the rates cannot be enforced without the consent of the majority of the mem bership.
 The head camp ill the summer of 1913 proposed a referendum, sub hitting seven different rate plans for the selection of the membership. But the impression gained currency that the referendum was a ruse, and the result was a vote of less than one per cent of the members. The executive council had been expected to take some action on the quest ion at it's meeting here, but deferred f to the triennial convention. Op- poneuts of the plan declare the whole proposal was a move to trans form the insurance plan of the order from fraternaI to "old line". They contend that the question will never he settled until this movement has been downed, and that this can be done only by removing the present

I. S. COMMISSIONER SAYS GRAFT

While white children's estates are ordinarily settled at cost of only three per cent, the ay- craze price on Indian children's es- ties has been 20 per cent. Th3se children are the richest average children in the country; their prop critics often are $5O,OOO; and ire cueutly this entire amount has been grafted by the interruptions.

STATE TOURNEY
Being PLANNED
University Athletic Authori-
ties Considering Basket
ball Meet.

Plans for holding a state high
school basketball tournament At the
University of North Dakota during the
winter months, are now being consid-
cred. The proposition was suggested
by the North Dakota Interscholastic
league at the annual meeting held
here last spring. The state has al
ready been divided of into four dis
and the plan is to have the
winning teams of the sections COM
pete here for the state championship.
Under the present system the cham
pionship is often in doubt and by
holding an annual tournament the
matter will be decided to the satis-
faction of all high schools.
If the tournament is scheduled. it
will be held under the auspices Of the
University Athletic board OF control.
The exact date for holding the meet
has not been decided. The university
board will make arrangements for
bringing the teams here.
A part. or perhaps all, Of the ex-
penses Of the four teams will be guar.
anteed by the university, so that the
high schools will be under little ex-
pense If any. This expense will prob.
ably include six or seven men from
each of the four schools.
Officials who are not interested in
the outcome Of the contests will be Sc
cured. The interscholastfc track and
field meet is held at the university ev-
cry spring and it is always run off IN
The question OF holding the tourna.
ment will be discussed at a meeting
