The People Greatly to Blame.

DEs MONIES, Iowa, April 9.--Judge VIII
liam Common, in a published letter regard
ing tire laxity of the Iowa criminal laws, az
we'll as their enforcement, says: If we
are going to blame anyone here in Iowa for
this state of things, the people themselves
must assume pretty large share. They
send to the Legislature lawyers, many Of
whom make living by defending
criminals. These men, composing the
entire membership of the judiciary
committee, prevent any reform OF
criminal procedure. They sign pc
titions TO pardon criminals regardless of the
merits of the case. and help to set free the
few who are so unlucky as to get convicted.
They make no demand upon the Legislature
for reform i'm this direction, although they
sign numerous petitions for the pardon OF
two or three murderers." The Judge urges
that District Judges should have longer
Germs. larger powers, better pay, and that
defendants privileges should be curtailed.

CINCINNATI, o., April Z.
At meeting Saturday at Music Hall of
the Committee on Legislation, Hon. w.
S. Groesbeck, Chairman of the sub-com-
mittee, reported that it had been agreed
to recommend certain portions of legisla-
ton which had been agreed on by the
committee of the bar association. Their
report was adopted.
1t provides such changes I'm the law as
to make criminal bonds more secure by
requiring atiidavitS from bondsmen that
they hold unincumbered property sutfi-
Gent to satisfy the bond; that i'm sentenc.
Ing criminals in capital cases at least
twenty days shall intervene between the
sentence and execution; that in the re-
vision of criminal cases on error, the
court must give judgment without regard
TO errors or defects that do not substan-
tally affect the rights of defendant; that
when an erroneous judgment has been
given on lawful verdict, the court may
correct the judgment to conform to the
verdict, or may remand the cause for a
new trial.
The Jmmittee also agreed to recon-
mend the passage of the Pruden bill,
which forbids the exemption from jury
service in criminal cases Oh account of
membership of a military command, and
also the Walker bill which makes the
number of defendants peremptory chal-
lenges to jurors six aud the States four.
A committee of five was selected to go
to Columbus and urge q speedy enact
ment of these measures.
