A. Q. U. W.
The Grand Financier Explains the
New Rates Now Offered by
this Great Order

Henry Neill, the financier of
the grand lodge A Q. T. W. Wis
tied Security lodge Monday even
ing and explained the new rates
adopted by the grand lodge at
its last meeting. and which
places the \. O. t. w. in the
adequate rate fraternal societies
and gives the members of the
order an option OF several plans.
The new laws Of the order do
not change the status OF the
present members only as they
may desire to make a change to
any Of the new rates but it places
all new members of the order
in a position that they may know
exactly what they will have to
pay for each 81 900 Of insurance
they carry and provides con
stantly increasing reserve fund
for the benefit Of the members of
the order who may survive for
years and make the payment of
their death claims certainty.
The a. 9. Z. w. and like frater-
nal societies learned through
experience that under the very
low flat rate with which these
societies were conducted during
the first years of their existence,
is not adequate to meet an in
creasing death rate as the men,
bers and the institu ton grows
older, and they are obliged
sooner or later to make changes
in their organization. 1t is the
general conviction of those who
have made a study of these in
surance matters that the Work
men society has taken . good
step in making the change that
it has in placing the organization
on firm basis thus early IN its
career and that it has not done 90
any too soon for the permancy
of the order and the security Of
it's membership.
The A. O. u. w. Of South Dak-
ota was organized just twenty
four years ago and during this
time it has paid out to widows
and orphans of it's members the
great sum Of %, 327, $40, and has

Charges OF Graft False.
Present and Past Officials Of Roberts
County Exonerated by Expert.

+. |. Lampy, assistant state
executive accountant. who spent
the past summer IN an examin-
alton Of the county records Of the
offices of Roberts county, has
made his report to the governor
and fled copy with the county
commissioners The Investigate
ion came as a result of repeated
charges Of fraud and graft on the
part OF certain official, and
former officials Of this county.
The report fills two pages OF
an ordinary siN-column news
paper, printed in solid nonpariel
type The pith OF the report is
contained in the following ex-
tract:
Il desire to state that in all Of
my examination of records and
claims allowed by the board Of
county commissioner ers | failed to
lind any signs Of graft. | be-
lleve that the board has acted
honestly and conscientiously in
all of their official duties. 1t is
true, however, that errors have
been made, but nothing of the
nature some people would have
the public believe, and have
claimed in great scare headlines
that graft existed all through
...e records and in all of their
official acts"
The investigation covered a
period extending back eight
years. Many errors were dis
covered and pointed out, but the
charge of intentional wrong
doing is eliminated by the report
of the accountant One justice
will be asked to return fees
collected by him from the county
in duplicate in one action; two
former sheriffs will be requested
to return to the county sums in
the amounts of $092.72 and 81,
81 % these sums being mostly
made up of mmissions retained
on collection ofpersonal property
taxes, under contracts thereof
with the county board, but which
contracts were illegal in the
opinion OF the attorney general
OF the state.
The Investigation will result in
the county paying . claim of $4O0

Registration
The Several Townships Have Filed
with the Auditor the Lists of
Registration as Taken
by Town Clerks.

Following are the numbers of
registered voters in the several
townships and precints Of the
county as now filed with the
county auditor, and only those
whose names have been placed
on these reg stored lists will be
permitted to vote in the primary
next spring. In addition to the
figures as given here there were
few names registered as pro-
hibitionists and socialists whose
vote will be confined to those
parties if there should be
socialist or prohibition tickets in
the field. Some voters register
ed as progressive, bullmooser,
undecided, none, etc. None of
these thus registered will be per.
mitted to take part in the pri-
mary election Only those reg
istered as republicans will be
permitted to vote ia the repub-
lican primary and only those who
have registered as democrats
will be permitted to vote in the
democratic primary.
One of the peculiar things
noticed by those who have had
charge of the registuring is that
so many voters failed to grasp
the fact that they must register
as party man before they will
be permitted to take part in the
party primary. They do not
seem to understand that while
they may vote at the general
election without registering their
party affiliation they are not per-
mitted to take any part in the
nomination Of candidates of q
party to which they owe no
allegiance.
The various precincts have
registrations aS follows.
