LAWYERS INTERESTED.
lowa's New Code Will Have No Index
But SuppIemental Volume,

Iowa lawyers will be interested in
knowing that after a conference with
the state printer the code commission
has decided not to attempt to change
the references in the new edition of
the code from the Northwestern Re-
porter to the Iowa reports. 1t was
originally intended to correct the
plates by cutting out the references to
the decisions in the Northwestern and
inserting instead those of the Iowa re-
ports. After due consideration it was
decided that to modest the present
plates would be attended with great
danger and might result in great ex-
pense to the state. 1t would be diff
cult to secure type that would match
that cut out and the whole plate for
each page might be ruined by an at
tempt to make a correction. Bernard
Murphy, the state printer, suggested
compromise that will make the new
edition of the code of greater value
than if the corrections were made, as
it will mean references to both the
Northwestern and the Iowa. The
plan is to place in the rear of the book
cross reference table which will
show upon what page a decision may
be found in both of the reports. This
will be of great value to the lawyers
of the state and will answer all the
requirements of the commission, at the
same time keeping the plates intact.
The new edition of the code, by the
way, will have no index. 1t will be
valueless without the supplement
which accompanies it, for the index to
both will be in the supplement. AS
| this will be a book of about 1900
pages the laws of the state will be
rather bulky, and will not be as conve-
nient of access as before the supple
| ment was published. There will be
the advantage, however, that all of the
| laws, including the cast of the last
three general assemblies, will be
| found in two volumes with a single
| index.
Question of Court Reporter.
"The recent effort in the legislature
to enact law making the office of SUI.
| preme court reporter appointive has
given rise to considerable discussion
among the lawyers of the state, re,
garding the quality of the present re
ports and the delay in their appear

| blame. The reporter blames the pub.
fishers and the publishers blame the
reporter. The whole matter could
have been solved had the legislature
enacted law placing the supreme
court reports on the same basis as the
other publications Of the state. At
present they are let by contract at as
low a price as possible and the work
is often inferior. The plates, howev,
er, remain in the hands of the contrac.
tors. Here is where the trouble comes
in. They take the contract at a very
low price with almost no margin. 1t
is stipulated that the regular edition
shall be sold at certain price, but
there is no stipulation regarding flu
ture editions. The result is that as
soon as the regular edition is exhaust

To be sure, a large amount Of advertising
