Iowa Legislators Return From a
Weeks Vacation on Monday.
MEMBERS VISIT CONSTITUENTS.
Expected That Business of Session
Will Now be Rapidly Pushed
Forward. Important Meas
ureS Come Up.

The Iowa legislature convened at
Des Moines on Monday, after a
weeks vacation, during which the
members went to their homes to at
tend to business matters, and to
talk with their constituents con-
corning the various measures of i'm
portantance which have come before
them for disposition. 1t is safe to
say that wherever they went the
one demand made of them was that
they settle the senatorial matter in
some way, either elect some one, it
makes little difference whom, any of
the candidates would honorably rep
resent the state, or else vote to sub
init the matter to primary, and
then get busy on the important
legislation before the assembly.
Among the most important meas
ures for immediate consideration
will be the various bills effecting
the saloons, the five mile educa-
tional institution limit bill, with an
amendment making it any state in
stitution or college backed by any
church, which is thought will kill
the measure, as it effects a dozen
or more Iowa cities; the anti-treat-
ing bill; the constitutional prohibit
ton amendment, ETC.; the utility
commission bill; the publicity bill;
the highway bill, and the appropria-
lions.
How to make an income for the
biennial period showing a surplus
of million and a half spread out
to cover over three and a half mil
lions of a demand for expense al
lowance is the immediate problem
of the two appropriations commit
tees. They are not privileged to dc
as at Washington, spend the money
and appropriate for deficits after
wards; but must plan now for the
income and outgo for the period
Two years ago the legislature in
cluded in the extraordinary appro-
priations, or those over and above
the regular running expenses of the
state, about $1,1li, 900, and two
years before a slightly larger sum
In each case larger sum was auth
orized for expenditures than the es-
timated income, because it was the
desire of the legislators that the I'M
necessary surplus in the treasury be
not increased. Now with the enor-
nous increase which has been made
in the assessment of property, es-
pecially personal property, the in
come will naturally be larger.
But a million and a half is the
limit for the two years. Already
the bills before the legislature are
far above this sum. The three col
leges and fifteen ether state insti-
tutions need over two million dol
lars. A half dozen other items ag-
gregate another million. But some
of these will be dismissed without
much consideration, as for instance,
some of the commissions suggested.
A briefing of the appropriation bills
pending shows:

Senator Root has introduced a
bill in congress having for its object
the prevention of deadlocks in state
legislatures growing out of attempts
to elect United States Senators. The
bill provides that in case there is
no election by majority vote by
March l next preceding the term
for which the senator should be
elected thereafter a plurality vote
shall be sufficient to elect. The bill
If passed would not become effec-
tive until January, 1912, and there

While Iowa has gone backward in
point of population, advance REPORTS
from the census bureau indicate
that the state has made remark
able growth in land values and i'm
provements and now ranks first.
Statistics show the state to have
farms valued at 1000,
with an average value per farm of
$12,905.6 so. The most valuable
farming land in the United States is
located in the District of Columbia,
where there are PA farms valued at
$25,524 each. Proximity TO good
markets, of course, accounts for the
high value of District Of Columbia
land, which in the view of an Iowa
farmer would be fit for nothing bet
ter than raising stone bruises.

Congressman Griest of Pennsyl-
vania, has introduced bill provid-
city delivery letters. Mr.. Griest has
figured it out that the government
now has profit of Il cents on
each local delivery letter, and that
with / cent postage it would con-
tinue to have about three-fourths of
a cent profit, and that the reduction
in postage would result in an in
creased volume Of mail and enlarg-
ed revenues.

Three cars loaded with cattle be-
longing to Eli and Andrew Peterson
Of Hebron were derailed on the joint
track between the Laramie Plains
line and the Union Pacific about mid
night last night, three of the cattle
being killed. Two other cars were
damaged. The stock shipment, con-
sisting of ten cars, were loaded at
Northgate. and when the train ar
rived here the cattle were started
to be transferred to the Union Pa
cific, string of cars left standing
on a siding starting down hill and
colliding with the cattle cars. The
Union Pacific wrecker was sent to
the scene and the wreck was cleared
up. Eight cars of the cattle involved
in the collision have been forwarded
to market, about two cars of the cat
tie being yet on the plain. They will
be gathered up and sent forward.

KNOX COUNTY S. J. COURT.
Rum Cases Continued for Sentence.

RoCKLAND, Me-, September 26. A
single day sufficed to clear up the crimi-
nal docket in the Knox county supreme
court, and at its close tonight Knox
county Jail had no occupant for the first
time in its 20 years existence.
The only trial was that of Fred Get
tigan of Rockland, indicted on charge
of arson. Declaring that he would send
no man to prison on such evidence as had
been presented, Judge Haley ordered the
jury to return verdict of not guilty.
Another indictment against Gettigan for
similar offence was mol pressed.
The case of William Robbins, indicted
on charge of larceny, was continued
and he was allowed to go on his own
recognizance in the sum of 500. The
same disposition was made of the case
against William Fitch, indicted on hq-
uor nuisance charge. John Roakes of
Warren, indicted on a charge of larceny,
pleaded guilty and the case was continued
for sentence, Roakes recognizing in the
sum of $500. When these cases had
been disposed of, the last prisoner in the
county Jail had been delivered.
Russell w. Campbell of Boston and w.
H. Young of Camden, found guilty in
Trial Justice Miller's court of exceeding
the automobile speed limit in Camden,
were discharged, it being learned that
the fine imposed was beyond Judge Mil
ler's jurisdiction.
Liquor fines amounting to 81 ,080 were
paid, this being the largest sum collected
by this court in many years.

PLENTY OF GAME.
Rangeley is Looking for Record S,

Rangeley is Looking for Record Season.
RANGELEY, September Is. Indications
are that the deer hunting season in this
section of Maine, which will open in a
week, will be far ahead of any recent
season so far as quantity and quality of
game is concerned.
The early frost caused heavy losses
for the farmers, but it went good ways
toward opening the hunting season sue
cessfully and greatly improved the late
fall fly fishing.
The hunting of small game the past
week has been very successful, and
weather conditions have been very fav-
orable for this kind of sport. The law is
such that no hunter can legally bring in
a phenomenally large bag, but the time
when this is expected is past and hunters
are satisfied when they come somewhere
near the limit provided by law.
There are scores of deer seen every
day within mile of this village, any Of
which might be easily killed by an ex-
perienced gunner. The people are
hoping that these friendly animals will
not be ruthlessly slain, however
