Children in the Iowa Legislature.

Des Moines Letter: Probably in no
legislature in the Union could such q
picture be seen as may be here nearly
everyday of the session. Several men,
bers have their wives with them, and Of
course, theirl little ones. Hotels are but
prisons for children, and they have
learned that the legislative halls are
very nice for them, so they may be seen,
dressedin all the beauty of elegant taste,
sporting about the chambers, rolling
balls on the soft carpet in the areain front
Of the clerks desks, or grouped in nots
cutting dolls and tid-bits from paper,
or perched on some members lap. It
is not uncommon to see the bright,
pleasing little daughter of Speaker Wolf
sitting on his knee. The other day
some one in the rotunda gave the pretty
little daughter of Lieut. Gov. Manning
q paper sack Of candy, and she came
bounding into the senate chamber, ex-
claiming, 20, papa! papa! seel see!"
and skipping down the center aisle, she
an to his seat in the presidents chair,
and, before he was scarcely aware of her
presence, had emptied her sweetness
into his lap. It was done so quickly,
and with such impulsive artless inno-
cence, that the grave senators could but
smile, and the member who was on his
feet graciously yielded the floor to the
fodder. It was q pretty picture.
