Another Scheme for Iowa in Case
Schmidt's Local Option Bill
Is Defeated.
Democratic Senator's Say the
Publicity Given the Bill
Will Defeat 1t.

Sioux CRY, Iowa. Special Telegram, Feb
l6.-In case the Schmidt local option bill is
defeated it seems probable that license
bill prepared by Senator Yeomans will be
strongly supported. The Democrats at the
capitol, fearing that the Schmidt bill will
tail Of passage, have planned to introduce
new bill, much more stringent in its pro-
visions, which they hope will capture a
number of the Republicans. 1t was not
the intention to make il public for some
time, but it was given out here accident
ally.
The new bill applies to cities Of 9, 600 or
more population, which are allowed local
option OH petition of 200 property owners.
Special elections are to be held to vote on
the question OF licensing saloons, the
license not to be less than 81, 900 nor more
than $500. Saloookeepers must give
bonds in the sum OF $4,000. A commits
sion appointed by the governor will en-
force the law in each city. ss.
The Yeomans bill will be supported by
many Prohibitionists and strongly opposed
by many saloon men as to nervousness It
is said that the bill will have the support OF
large section Of the Democratic party. It
leaves the present law in Operation in coun-
try towns ofless than 1000.
The publication Of the bill has caused
CONSERVATION among the Democrats OF this
section. It is declared this action will re-
suit in the disorganization Of the party and
in the undoing of the work by which the
Democrats in the legislature have been got
in line for the support of the Schmidt bill.
The party leaders of this section are SUD-
posed to be responsible Tor the preparation
OF the bill. Its publication seems likely to
lead to rupture between the factions of
the party. Those who have been honestly
in favor Of the repeal OF the law and who
want strong license bill passed have no
criticism of the Yeomans bill, but say that
the premature publication will probably re-
suit in the de.eat of any license bill at this
session.
The Democrats, who hoped that even il
the law should not pass, the continuation
of prohibition regime would help the
Democrats for the next two or three wears
have come to believe that if the bill fails
now the failure will be attributed 10 the
bungling methods of the Democratic man.

there is great uneasiness among the Demo

declare, however, that they will favor a no
license bill, and that they will organize e

Charitable and Correctional Work at the
worlds Fair.
tors Of the Eenaebec Journal:

Editors Of the Eenaebec Journal:
Although efforts have been made hereto-
fore to show what the world is doing in
charitable and penal affairs, it has remained
for the Columbian Commission to produce
in separate and comprehensive bureau an
exhibit which will represent the effort that
is making and illustrate the present facili-
ties for dealing with detectives, dependents
aui delinqucnts.
At first thought, an exhibit of this nature,
which win be an adequate representation OF
charities and corrections, seems an impos-
sibility. for there is so much that is intangi-
bic and invisible in philanthropic work.
But it is believed, that with the assistance
of all who are interested in matters
charitable and psychological, whether
because of official position, or individ-
ual inclination or business occupation, an
exhibit will be collected which will be
stimuIative and instr uttive to those already
in the work, and interesting and suggestive
to the general public.
1t is very desirable that the division of
Liberal Arts under the head of Charities.
Hospitals. Homes sc should have at the
Worlds Fair good cNlIibi, from Maine.
Charitable societies of all kinds are re-
quested to exhibit by sending a complete
set Of reports substantially bound. also
copies Of its publications, serapbooks Civ
ing forms in use by the society, &c, sc.
Individual institutions either charitable. cor
regional and penal are requested to exhibit
bv charts giving statistics &c. by architect
ural plans of buildings, by photographs, b,
a complete set of reports Of the institu-
ton Sc.
Steps should be taken Immediately by
those societies wishing to exhibit ard none
should be left out As it is necessary to APP
PLY for space in the Liberal Arts Building
at once.

any information in regard to this depart
