These distinctions, however, are
wise, and were accorded by broad
mined legislators. have taken occa-
sion to examine the history Of these
provisions, as well as the provisions
exempting property from execution,
and those safeguarding the homestead,
and the team, and other exempted
property from alienation without the
joint signature of husband and wife,
and l have found they were all pro-
posed and introduced by lawyers,
bankers or merchants. These be-
neficent and wise statutory reliefs were
all of grace, and none of them were
sought by the beneficiaries thereof. None
had to be petitioned for. These facts
make me prouder still Of Iowa and of
her citizenship. They also afford ad-
ditional proof that In this agricultural
state none of our people are so out Of
touch and sympathy with the farmer
and the wage-earner as to be unmind-
full of their needs.
