SOME new Lt,WS

With the!issuing OF the new code
many new laws are to be found of
general interest. Some of them
appear to be Exaggerated in their
meaning but can be amended IS
the legislature meets and goes
over the hurdensome or excessivee
enactments, which will in all likeli-
hood follow as the years pass.
One of the new laws is that of
rating habitual Grimm ais. Such a
party on being convicted for a
third time of either felony or petit
larceny is deemed a habitual
criminal and the punishment is set
at ten years; fiv, time loser gets
a life term.
Any person who refuses to ap-
pear before legislative body as a
witness can be prosecuted en- a
charge of gross misderneanor.
The party who attic npts suicide
in the future wants to make good
job of it. In case he fails he is
to be prosecuted and charged
with attempt at hon icide, upon
conviction to be fined aot less than
$1,000 and be imprisc ned for not
more than two years.
The owner of the Vicious dog,
the little red bull or hutting ram,
must take care of the same. Should
one of the animals XII a person

of any nature are subject to prose
cution and shall be guilty of man.
slaughter.
The white slave Law as enacted
is a severe one and covers every
condition of this element of
criminals. Any party connected
with this class of buiress is subject
to arrest and punishment in the
state prison and fine. The law
is apparently as severe as III at If
the federal government, between
the two factions working it would
appear that the white slaver has a
little chance, and tie hunger on and
those who live from such earnings
will have to step Lively to rass by

or cigarettes without written
order from the parents or guard
