SUBMITS THREE PLANS
Congressional Committee Seeks to
Reduce Southern Representations.

Washington. Oct. "details of the
tentative plans suggested by the ma
tional Republican congressional COM
mittee for changes in the apportion-
ment of delegates to the national con-
vention was made public today. The
first plan provides that each state have
four delegates at large and for con-
gressional districts one delegate for
each district where the vote for Re
publican presidential electors in 1908
was not more than 40 per cent of the
total vote for presidential electors; two
delegates if the vote was from 40 to
so per cent. and three delegates where
it was more than so eer cent.
The second plan would give each
state four delegates at large and one
delegate for each ten thousand voters
and major fraction thereof cast for the
Republican candidates for presidential
electors in 1908.
The third plan is just the same as
the preceding except that each con-
gressional district shall have at least
one delegate and there shall be two
for each congressman at large.

history of the lodge. Three sessions
were held Friday and all the business
was completed in that time. The dele
gates made their headquarters at the

them congregated for two days. The
main question was the admission of
women which came up at the session
in Arkansas City last March but which
was referred to a committee

1t is believed that this new change
in the lodge will add 10000 new mem
bers to the order The leaders believe
that the Degree of Honor, an auxiliary
organization, will affiliate with the
lodge this year. This will strengthen
the lodge in the belief of the leaders
and will make it a strong competitor
with other lodges in the state.
Smaller life insurance policies were
also adopted, $500 and $1,000 policies
will be in force as we'll as the $1,000
and $4,000 ones now used. Another
move by this session has made it pos
sible for social memberships to men
and women unable to carry insurance.
All of these new provisions will be-
come effective by order of the grand
