BANK FOR DISTRICT JUDGE.

Henry Bank, Jr., of Keokuk, Lee
county, Iowa, judge of the district
court, was born in Hanover, Germany,
and came to the United States with
his parents, coming directly to Fort
Madison, Lee county, Iowa, at which
time Judge Bank was about 6 years
of age. The family, after residing at
Fort Madison for several years, moved
to farm in Van Buren, township, Lee
county, Iowa, and what school educa-
ton Judge Bank received was &C.
ouired in the public schools OF Van
Buren, township, at which place he
also learned the cooper trade, under
the direction of his father, which oc-
cupation re followed during his young
manhood. From Van Buren, town
ship, after his marriage, Judge Bank
moved directly to Keokuk with his
family, where he has ever since re-
sided, and where he was admitted to
the bar in 1878. Immediately preced-
ing the establishment Of the superior
court in the city of Keokuk, Judge
Bank had been acting as city re-
corder or police magistrate, and upon
the establishment Of the superior
court he became it's first judge, the
court being organized under his su-
nervision. This position he held TOR
twelve years, during which time much
important litigation was transacted
in that court, part Of which gave
Judge Bank a national reputation by
reason of his judgment being upheld
BY the supreme court Of the United
States. IN the fall Of 1895 Judge
Bank was elected Judge Of the dis.
trict court to fill the vacancy caused
by the death Of the Honorable ): M.
Casey, who was one Of the best
known and most highly esteemed jur-
lists of this state, which position. .
Judge Bank has continued to hold up
to RI, present time. K g. H. -g.@

MORE LIQUOR LAW OPINION.
Attorney Generals Office Now Busy on
Express company's Riahts.

LES hOil4cs, Wv -4Sl!lcT tx
press companies can handle shipments
Of liquor in dry territory in Iowa
without being compelled to prove that
such shipments are not intended for
bootieggtng purposes. is the question
submitted to the attorney generals Of
fee. Assistant Attorney General Rob
bins began the preparation of an opin-
Ion, al the request of three county at
torneys.
The question affects the rights of
express companies TO handle liquor for
delivery with immunity from its being
seized and conhscaied. The decision
rests on the Interpretation of one sec
ton Of the Iowa liquor statutes, &C.
cording TO Robbins.
Liquor shipm ents have been seized
While being delivered by express con.
panies. The burden Of proof 70 show
that such liquors are intended for IL
legal purposes and therefore subjected
to condemnation. has been shouldered
on the state and the prosecutors The
law exe-npts from seizure all liquor in
transit that is for private use
There is a section in the Iowa law
that declares the finding OF unreason-
able amounts of liquor shall be pre-
suUptive evidence that such liquor is
for Illegal sale. The question on
which Robbins declares his entire opin-
ion is probably based is whether an
express Office IS a place If public re-
sort If he so holds and places ar
express office in the same class as q
grocery store for instance. the burden
os proof therefor will be removed from,
the state and placed on the shoulders
o. the express companies.
In this case 1t win BE necessary Il
cali In the persons to whom the liquor
has been sent to testify that such
| liquor IS for private consum ption.
It is anticipated that many persons
who order liquor by express would not
testify 70 their ownership thereof be-
. cause they would not desire any pub
licity.
Whether express companies will turn
down liquor shipments or will in any
way place restrictions on liquor ship
ments i. Robbins should hold the bur.
den of proof rests with them, is an i'm
portant question on which state offic.
tails are offering conjecture.

Plan 10 to Abolish Convict Labor and

ufaetures Of Various implements and
Artieles-Prison Poorly Located and

Des Moines, June ia-The next state

the penitentiary at Fort Madison and
authorize the building of a new state
prison in central Iowa. W. J. Dixon.
mem Der OF the board OF control OF state
institutions, said today the board itself
may present the move to the legisla-
ture. He declares himself unqualified
ly in favor OF asking the assembly TO
act.
The board OF control is preparing
definite action for the a5olishm ent OF
contract labor and the eradication OF
the stigma of such employment of con-
victs. Plans include the employment
OF an industrial engineer. the estao-
l!shu,ent of factories FOR the uaanufac-
ture Of auto trucks, farm machinery,
chairs and butter tubs.
Mr.. Dixon declared that the Fort
Madison penirentiary will be moved

he asserts. Furthermore, the state
does not have enough land tor the
needs Of the institution. The only
building OF value is the new cell house
now under construction. The location
OF the penitentiary-in the extreme
southeast corner OF the stat@costs the
state thousands OF dollars IN transpor-
,a,ion expenses for prisoners every
year The city of Fort Madison and
its residents are becoming more and
more antagonistic to the institution ev-
cry day. as evidenced by the passage Of
an ordinance prohibiting convicts from
appearing on the streets and working
outside prison walls. These are rea
sons pointed out by Mr.. Dixon.
viii Hire Engineer.
Dixon says the board will consider
al once the employment of an indus
trial engineer for state institutions. The
state of Minnesota now pays $4,000 for
the services OF such an official. His
duties are TO have general supervision
over the industries OF the state insti
tutions. to make recommendations for
