JURY TRIAL FOR DRINKS.
New State Law For This Provision for
Trial Of lnebriates.

Trial Of lnebriates.
Council Bluffs, Aug. Trial by jury
and admission to bail are privileges
conferred by new Iowa law on per-
sons charged with inebriety. The act
will not go into effect until the new
state hospital for dipsomaniacs is COM
pleted at Knoxville, but after that time
a radical change will take place in the
method of procedure against drunk
ards. This class of cases will here
after be treated much the Same as
criminal matters. except that no indict-
ments will be returned.
The chief alteration in the old law,
which, however. remains in force for
the present. is that II takes out of the
district judges hands the authority to
hear dipso cases and determine them.
The jury provision is substituted for
the plan heretofore followed, and in
every case a verdict must be returned
IN the regular manner as to whether or
not the defendant is q fit subject for
confinement in the hospital.
One improvement which the late en-
actment makes is that person accus-
ed of a crime may be arrested and
placed on trial notwithstanding the
fact that he may be under sentence to
the dipso institution. He. can even be
taken out of the inebriates' hospital
and made to stand prosecution on an
Indictment regularly returned. The law
says that when discharged after such
trial or Imprisonment resulting from IT,
he shall be returned to the dipso house
at the expense of the county where the
criminal proceedings shall have been
brought.
The old law was faulty in this re-
spect as it permitted man accused of
crime to escape conviction by haying
an information for drunkenness filed
against him. BY pleading guilty to the
iipso charge he was able to avoid the
penitentiary and to get off with a year
or two spent at Mount Pleasant.

THE POLITICAL SITUATION
AS Reviewed by the Civil Service
Commissioner-Ne York is
Safe.

The Hon. William Dudley Foulke,
of this city, who has been in the
East for the past month, has return
ed home and spent yesterday in In
dianapolis While there he took the
opportunity of calling at the Repub-
lican State committees Headquarters
and offering his services to Senator
c. c. Lyons of the speakers bureau.
Mr.. Foulke is "billed' to speak in
Richmond at the Coliseum next
Thursday night During his absence
from this city, Mr.. Foulke has been
campaigning through New York,
Connecticut. New Jersey and Mary
land and he regards the latter State
as the only doubtful one of the four,
He says that the national ticket III
New York State is safe enough, but
thinks that there is some doubt about
the State ticket. In speaking of the
outlook Mr.. Foulke has the follow
ing to say.
New York Outlook.
"The outlook in New York for the
presidential electoral ticket is splen-
did. and it is improving every day.
The personal popularity of the prasi-
dent in the East as we'll as in the
West is something phenomenal.
Speaking in some Of the tenement
house districts in New York / notic-
ed what powerful effect was pro-
duced by comparison Of the record
of President Roosevelt in the coal
strike Two years ago, when he risked
his own political future by his in
tervention for the sake of saving the
lives of hundreds and thousands Of
the poor in those districts, with the
article published by Judge Parker's
representative, Mr.. Sheehan, in the
September North American Review,
where lie declared the president had
no right to interfere. These poor
people known who their friend was.
and the vote is goin" to show it.
New Jersey Situation.
In New Jersey, too, the national
Republican ticket is far stronger
than the State ticket, and I do not
feel the slightest doubt that New
JERSEY will go Republican.
"Maryland is much more doubtful.
There the Democrats are pushing the
issue of race prejudice and there is a
strong feeling in Maryland that the
negroes ought to be prevented from
voting. If this hatred of the negro
were out of the canvass, Roosevelt
would win by a large majority, but
the result now is doubtful.
"What about Connecticut 20 Mr..
Foulke was asked.
''Therc is no more danger of Con-
necticut's going Democratic than
Iowa or Illinois. The Republicans
are wide awake in that State. I
spoke at Bridgeport with Senator
Dillingham; at theefrst meeting held
III that city, and the enthusiasm was
tremendous.
