Without wishing to cast any reflect

tess that we should be giad to see a SIM
liar law passed by the Legislature OF our
state. We believe it to be Just and right.
1t i. not always to be supposed that be

Die profession that he is an honorable
man; and We have known cases where
monies collected for clients have been re-
tanned in attorneys hands until forbear

required by lawyers and courts for al
most thirg-they require security
for fees, security for costs, security for
payments, and other securities too nu.
IN rous to merton. Judges, Clerks Re
corders, Sheriff. and others are requir-
cd to give securities and why not law.
ycrs! Ii there is any valid reason why
they should not, then We should be glad
to see them.
In this city, for general thing the
honor of the bar is nobly maintained by
its members, but that is no reason why

acted. Let our Legislature now il

The LAxD GRAsT.-Somc fifteen or
twenty different snatches are being or
have been made fol the Land Grant OF
the Iowa Central Il. H., recently as
suned by the State. We hope the
Legislature, il it does anything at all
with the grant in question, will make
such disposition Of it as will be of some
immediate benefit to the State. OF the
entire amount donated by the General
Government, scarcely any actual benefit
has yet accrued to the State therefrom.
