The state board OF control is already
arranging to put into effect the pro-
visions of the new law, which gives it
control OF the county and private in
sane asylums of the state. The mem
bers of the board, after u conference
on the subject, have adopted plan for
Determining exactly what new respon-
slbilities are involved under the new
law. Secretary Wilkinson has been
instructed to communicate with oil the
county clerks OF the state and ascer-
tain what counties have insane in their
keeping, and whether they are kept in
state, county or private asylums. II
county or private asylums are main.
tanned, the clerk will be expected to
furnish Information as to the number
of inmates, the location of the institu-
taon. etc. As soon as this information
is collected the board will make a tour.
OF inspection, and investigate the con
dition of all the institutions. There
are a few counties in the state which,
have no insane There are about
twenty-five county asy.ums in the
state, however, and rs soon as possible
a'l ~ ol these VIII be visited.
The state auditors office issued and
sent out warrants to the 100 or more
banks winch advanced money to the
fund for transporting the Fifty-first
Iowa. While the legislature declined
to pay transportation of more than
this one regiment, there was a feeling
among the members that this refusal
would not be accepted as final. 1t is
expected that the same question will
come up again at each session of the
legislature and, like the New Orleans
claims, the John u. Brown claim ana
othef l5anquo,s ghosts of former ses-
