ever to the general public, is very
Iistie, as, excepting few, the multi
tude Of bills, etc, that got into the
hopper, were of only local concern.
None Of these affect Iowa or adjoin-

To cur mind the most important
measure to the people Of the whole
State is th&t presented by our Sen
ator McGrew, providing for bienniel
sessions of the Legislature It's fate
seems to depend upon the Senate,
there being general Impression
that in the Assembly It will meet
bat little opposition and will pass
that body by q decided majority. In
the Senate, however, it has several
strong opponents, and some think
will never get through there. At
the outset the opponents OF tue
measure secured the advantage OF
having it referred to the committee
on State affairs, supposed to be most
upfriendly, Of which Senator Bur
rows, Of Madison, the natural leader
of the opposition, is Chairman. Me
Grew sought to have it referred TO
committee on Judiciary, but was de-
ieated by Brlrows.
A proposition to restore the death
penalty for murder vii! excite some
attention, and have a strong sup
port but it is generally thought
not enough to carry either house.
Two or three bills looking to a
correction of the difficulties and in
Justice of the present law for tax
ing encurnbered real estate, have
been presented, all embracing the
principle of compelling the holder
of mortgage 10 pay q pro-rata
share of the tax levied upon mort
