New Liquor legislation.

-NtN bliuhbE * EsAfstiHHs
AS to what viii happen on Jan. /
Frank Horack has prepared the fol-
lowing statement of the effect Of the
liquor legislation passed by the Thir
ty-sixth general assembly, for the
State Historical society:
For some years a growing hostility
toward the liquor business has been
manifest in the general assembly of
Iowa. This anti-liquor sentiment seems
to have eliminated in the Thirty-sixth
general assembly in the passage of a
number of acts designed to wholly
abolish the liquor business in Iowa
In the first place the so-called
mulct law, under which the liquor bus
mess has been conducted in Iowa for
many years. was repealed to take eff
feet Jan i, 1916. The effect Of this re-
peal is to revive statutory prohibition
throughout the state Moreover by
joint resolution of the two houses,
prohibitory amendment to the consti-
tuition is proposed. Like all proposed
constitutional amendments, this prop
osition must be adopted by the next
succeeding general assembly before
before submitted to the people. In the
meantime statutory prohibition will be
in force.
In order TO make statutory prohibit
ton effective a number of so-called
law enforcement acts were passed
Judges OF the district and superior
courts of the state are authorized TO
issue search warrants for the seizure
of liquor, and are given jurisdiction In
the matter of serving notices, trial and
judgment in liquor cases.
Effect OF Iniunctions.
When a person has been enioined
against selling liquor. the injunction
is effective throughout the state, in
stead of only in the judicial district as
heretofore. Those who violate an in
junction of the court against the sell
ing of liquor the second time are more
severely punished than first offenders.
Indeed. anyone convicted a second
time for violation OF the liquor laws OF
the state is deemed a persistent vio-
lator of such laws and sentence for
each subsequent violation of the law
shall be imprisonment In the state
penitentiary or reformatorv for not
more than one year
ut 10 made unlawful for any rail-
road. express company, or other COM

FEED YOUR GRAIN AND
FORAGE TO STOCK

Oklahoma City, Aug 16.-The
movement in Oklahoma to hold the
corn and other grain crops has made
such headway that the bankers are
being taken at their word by a num-
Der of farmers, and the outlook is
that there will be more feeding of
stock the coming winter than for
many years. Grain and forage crops
are much better this year than ever
before in the history of the state.
The admonition to put legs on your
corn" has been heard in many coun-
ties in Oklahoma and tho result will
be a busy season for the packing
houses and the payment of notes and
bills a little later, but more surely
than II the receipts for the grain
itself were depended upon.
