LEGISLATION IN KANSAS.
A General Mortgage Law Expected (,
 Work Much Good.

TOPEKA, Kan, February 23.-As there are only two weeks left of the present ses. sion of the Legislature, and most of tha, time will be occupied with appropri atior bills, it Is doubtful if the existing laws con corning mortgages, railroads and interest charges will be seriously disturbed. Pro vision vii probably be made for electiag the mem bers of the State Board of Rail road Com missieners by direct vote of the people. The bill to tax mortgages wal voted down in Judiciary Committee, and f is thought that the proposition has beer effectualy disposed of. The House has passed general mortgage law which was favored by Republican and Alliance mon alike, anu is regarded as an improvement on the old law. The new law proposes, or the one haud to do away, as general thing, with the burdens ome and useless trouble and expense of tae present msthoc of foreclosing mortgages, and on the other hand tn secure the right of redemption for the debtor. It authorizes the making of . mortgage contain ng power Of sale, auth orizing the sheriff to advertise and sell tho
 
 It contains full provisions for the protec. ton of the debtor against sale wrongfully made
 It also contains ample provisions for junior creditors, if there be any, anc limits the cost of foreclosure to $l0. Ss far as this bill is concerned, it is calculated to improve the credit of Kansas mort gages. The bill has no application ts existing mortgages except that It offer. an inducement to both lender and bor rower in the matter of the renewal oi loans. Doubt uncertainty and expense is the collection of debt impair credit and niure debtor and creditor alike Int absence of any right in the mortgages to redeem after sale of his land is another eTl which has been productive of ereai hardships in the last two years 1t ii believed that by the procedure provided for in tho bill 1t will be a saving of cost and expenses to both the borrower and the lender. The Senate committee has amended the House bill in such way q, to make the bill aud procedure thereundei applicable to the present as well as future contracts. The bill has been very care fully cons idered by the Senate Judiciary Committee, and the House will quite likely l acquiesee in the amendments suggested by 1 this committee. The resubmss ques. ton has been made the special order fo, Monday moruing in the House. rhers are | two joint resolutions before the House OF this question one introduced by Mir 1 Douglass, of Sedgwick County, and the other by Mir. Hoover of Ford. Each l provides for the submission to the people at the next general election of a propo- sition to repeal the prohibitory amendment. | These resolutions also contain higa license and local option provisions, and leaves tho liquor question to the respective counties | to settle for themselves. As the sentiment of the Legislature is strong v against auy change of tue prohibitory liquor laws, 1t is certain that both resolutions will be defeated.
