There will be an address of half an hour, followed by musio and recitations. The public are cordially invited. No admission fee. of a close ring of speculative men, who have flattened their purses in the name of agriculture. It was a measure that nhm:l%r have been adoptod, and the farmers owed it to themselv d their interest to have secured its suc- oess. In the failure of this measure also failed several other important bills on specific subjects, of import- ance to agriculture, inch were held in abeyance stding the result of the industrial bill. Al failed. The bill to provide for extending the time for payment of taxes, and to reduce the penalty on delinquent taxes; also to amend and i improve the road lnm, rotect sheep growing; to reduce the Funl rate of interest - all were lost. The latter was strongly opposed in the house by several leading farmers, who disclosed the fact that they loan- ed money, and one of them, a preacher, the most rampant greenbacker in the state, said he had loaned money at 2 per cent. a month. These were all measures directly in the interest of farmers, Over against this must be set tho fact that they increased the state tax levy one-half mill to meet the appropriation of over one million dollars to state inatitutions. In look- ing over the laws enacted 1t will be seen that two-thirds are legalizing acts, a practice which is becamm formidable aid should be sto) officials cannot perform the guhel of their office in a lawful manner they should take the re-ponnhlhl y and not consume the time and money of thé edpls to have their derilection legal- by the legislature, There is great dungor in doing great wrong and in- justice in this way, One inatance did occur. A bill was ed and went to the governor, legulizing all defective acknowledgment of deeds and mort- gages mado since the territory was or- ganized. The goyernor refused to mign it a8 it would lize all fraudu- lent acts whatever, and estops all ac- tions in regard to fraudulent convey- ances. It must be admitted there has been an entire absence of jobbery during the session. There has been no lobby to work through private schemes. a whole the legislature was composed of intelligent and capable men. There were a few demagogues and small souled members, but they did no harm. During a period of six- teen years I have not seen so little of persoaality in debate, nor £o little of individual leadership in either house. There was no acknowledged leader. The senate has finally put itself on record, in explanation of the prohibi- tion amendment. It declares that the amendment is intended to apply only to the manufacture, for sale, and sale within the state as a beverage. There is scarcely a question that the senate is correct All history of the legisia- ture shows this to be true. The elec tion for the people to vote upon it will be held June 27th. The legislature had difficulty in fix- ing up the congressional district bill, As Lucas, of Johnson, a blunt farmer, put it, ‘‘there were too many pigs for the teats.” There were too many men with congressional aspirations, and it was also at the same time im- portanttoso fix the muss thatno district could possibly be captured by the democrats. The Third, Sixth nnd Eighth districts as mads up will show how that could be done. The new map will play havec with many state associations which are officered by representatives from congressional districts. They will ind themselves badly mixed, often two in one district, and often in another district, It will cause no little confusion for some time, In the Fourth district two congressman are now in the same dis- trict—Deering and Updegraff, There seems to be a little method in this ar- rangement, an effort to legislate one or the other out of congress. It may be asked why the legislature did not elect regents for the state university and trustees of the agricultural college for the full eleven congressional districts, That was the intention, but after full discussion in the joint conyention it was decided it could not be done, as the law previding for the new distriots was not force, therefore election will only be had under the old law, and when the new law comes in force the governor will appoint the persons selected by the republican caucus, which will be the same in result. It will be seen that the new repre- sentative apportionment increases the number of districts from 78 to 87, and gives Audubon a representative of its own. It also shears off one represen- ‘tative from Dubuque and Scott coun- ties, which they did not like, but the constitution, as construed by the at- torney general, limits all counties to two representatives, regardless of pop- “Li';;m b, th ave given by wire the im) nt work of the wnllylml will notpr:::n Council Bluffs, Dubuque and Daven- port are happy over the defeat of the supreme court bill, but it was due to trickery, in m.lmg the bill fiom the house.
