CHANGES IN JR. 0. U. A. M.
The Amendment Pained at the National
Council of til Order nt Minneapolis.
Tho scesion of tin national council of tho
Jr. O U. A. M., which has adjourned nftor
a history making session at Minneapolis,
passed a largo number of amendments which
will ho Interesting to tho 4,000 members in
this county. Probably tbo most Important
ono Is that referring to tbo various state
councils, tho question of ratifying tho action
of tho National Council In changiug tho
name from Junior Order United American
Mechanics to "United Americans." Tho
various subordinate councils in the United
Statos havo voted upon this proposed chango
several times, but has always been defeated
by a decisive voto In this state, which
founded tho order and has 87,000 members.
Tho chango of name will undoubtedly bo
ratified this time under new laws, as each
state council will 1x3 recorded ns one voto
only, and in tho national council the voto for
a chango was 118 yeas to 21 nays, which camo
from Pennsylvania, Now Jorsey and Virginia,
all tho other states voting unanimously yos.
A beneficiary rank was added to tho order
and tho cost of insurance will bo announced
as soon as three of tho most prominent ac
tuaries In tbo United Statos report on tho
cost of life Insurance. The age for members
has been changed from 10 to 13 years and up
wards. Tho term of national representatives was
rcducod from five to three years and tho
basis of representation changed so that Penn
sylvania will have elovon members In tho
National Council instead of twenty-nine, as
at present.
The order has beon In need of a new ritual
and a tbrec-degrco ceremony was exemplified
during ono of tho evening sessions The
work was highly commended by all who saw
it, but as a largo number of representatives
were favorable to a one-dtgreo ritual the
adoption of tho new Inltiatorial work was
postponed for ono year and a prizo of $500
offered to tho momber writing a ritual which
would bo accepted at tbo meeting noxt year
at Detroit.
As a well known member of tho order
said : "The order has been hindered In its
patriotic work for many years by Its name, as
a groat many eligible people thought It was a
boy's order on account of its prefix, while
hundreds of others thought It was a labor or
ganization on account of tbo word 'mechanic'
being a part of Its name. The order is purely
patriotio and beneficial. It is not an anti
Catholic order, as Is supposed by many, but
takes In all classes and creeds, with the re
striction that they must bo American born "
