NArs LAW FOR IowA.--It is currently re-
ported here, that the Main Liquor Law has
passed its final reading in both Houses of
our Legislature and has now become law.
We have no official or direct notice of the
fact and cannot vouch for its truth. We
should have been better pleased to have seen
the former laws upon that subject executed
and honored before more stringent law
should be placed upon our statute books, Tor
thcv 90 will be dead letter
No one would be more willing than our
self to see check put to intemperance, and
the Liquor Traffic, but cannot scarcely hope
anv good will result to that cause from such
premature step.
The judgement must be convinced, anu
popular sentiment must be won before there
can be enough virtue in the people to exc
cute such law Abolish tne manufacture
stop its importation, and then come down on
she Traffic.
