60 be published following the session
of the next legislature, if the plans
which have been in the making for
some time are carried out. The work

Of the work under way.
By the time the next legislature

is questioned whether or not with the
other duties Of his office the material
can be got ready by the time the next

is now we'll outlined by Mr.. Whitney,
and will in all probability be ready
when the Thirty-seventh general as

The type which is now being used in
the supplementary supplement IS to be
purchased by the state and held for
use IN the new edition Of the code.
Sections Arranged Numerically.
This new edition will have each Sec
ton Of the statutory law arranged in
numerical order. Together with every
such section will be the annotations
and the volume and page of every
series Of reports where the case from
which the annexation is taken is re-
ported. There will also be such other
1nnotations as may be required by the
supreme court.
All of this material will have to be
oassed upon carefully by the next
legislature before it can authorize its
publication.

A NEST OF sUFFRAGlsTs.
keokuk Residents Prominent in the
Equality Propaganda.

keokuk July 19.-The interest which
the local women have in equal suffrage
makes it often a topic of conversation
at social affairs and recently these
three facts, interesting to Keokuk peo-
pie. came to light. Miss Sophia Carter
who resides with her niece. Mrs. \. L.
Wilcox. at 519 North Fourth street. at
tended the first equal suffrage conVen-
ton ever held in this county. 1t was
held in the Wesleyan Methodist
church in Seneca Falls, New York,
where Miss Carter lived She was
school girl then and coming from
school the girls stopped in and heard
the speeches. Seneca Falls was the
home OF Elizabeth Cady Stanton VINO
was personal friend of the Carter
family and was one OF the moving
spirits of this first convention.
The first equal suffrage bill intro
dtced in the Iowa legislature was
drafted and introduced in 1873 by an
uncle OF Mr.. \. Hollingsworth, Dr.
Isaac Hollingsworth. He was man
who thought in advance OF his time
along many lines, and he left very
strongly on this question. After the
bill was introduced he made a speech
in his defense. Mr.. A. Hollingsworth
still has in his library one OF MS
uncle's books. tSubjection of Women
by John Stewart Mills. There were
not so many books written on the
subject at that time, but DR.. Hollinss-
worth was student of all that were
published then.
Another interesting fact is that the
mother of Mrs. J. J. Chapman OF the
Pond apartments is personal frieno
Of Susan B. Anthony and DR.. Anna
Howard Shaw. Mrs. Chapmans moth
er's name was Mrs. Maria Sears
Brooks and she entertained Susan 3.
Anthony and DR.. Shaw often at her
home in Madison. Ind. Mrs. Brooks in
those days received the criticism which
came to all the pioneers in suffrage
She was a very womanly woman, but
a progressive woman who had think
ing mind and used it. In later years
the men and women who criticised her
way of thinking came themselves TO
the same viewpoint. which she had
held. and were generous enough 10
acknowledge it.

on an information charging him with
rape and the latter having been com.
mitted to the Industrial school for girls
at Mitchellville.
On July IL. the couple applied for q
license to wed. AS the girl was un-
der the legal age and as both her par
ehts were dead. the court appointed
Attorney ]. G. BEEN her guardian in
order that the license might be Is
sued II matters were found to be a
they should be. @
The girl is a step-daughter Of the
man who wished to marry her and
the statutes state that man can not
marry his step daughter. Attorney
BEEN, however. held that the relation
of step-father and step-daughter be-
tween the two ceased when the girls
mother. the second wife of Clark,
died and cites decision Of the SUI
preme court to sustain his grounds.
He stated that upon the strength of
this decision he gave his consent to
the marriage of the girl to Clark. At
torney H. E. Tullar who acted as
witness when the marriage license
was obtained, holds an opinion identi-
cal with that Of Mr.. BEEN.
The couple had started to drive p
Marshalltown. where Miss Utley Is
said to have a brother living. but
got only as far as Hudson when they
were compelled to turn back on ac-
count OF the condition Of the roads.
When they reached Waterloo, both
were taken into custody, the girl as
delinquent and the man under an
information charging him with enticing
girl. Miss Utley spent Friday night
in jail but Clark was allowed his lib
erty.
AS a result Of the testimony given
by Miss Utley. a warrant was sworn
out charging Clark with the crime Of
rape and he was again placed under
arrest.
The girl is said to have told story
that was revolving in the extreme.
Her mother was the second wife Of
Clark, who conducts small farm
near the paper mill. The girl is said
to have testified that even before she
was IA years of age Clark had criminal
relations with her. She is also said
to have testified that these relations
took place at a time when her mother
who was then Clark's wife, was alive
and sick in the hospital. Clark and
the girls mother were married when
the Utley girl was mere babe and
the girl has lived with Clark ever
since.
