An invitation to speak before the

Jan. 81 has been accepted by AttOrs
ney General Cosson. He will speak on
the general subject of all the social
activities of the day and on the various
forward steps being taken by law.
Senator Cummins is favorable to the
bill in congress to forbid all traffic
across state lines In anything manu-
featured by convict labor or having In
1t any element of convict labor. Sem
ator Kenyon, it is understood. has not
decided what stand he will take on the
bill. If such bill Is adopted in con-
gress 1t will seriously handicap the
state OF Iowa in trying to work out
an intelligent solution Of the convict
labor problem. Only a small portion
of the output of the factory at Anamosa
which the state has just bought can be
sold within the state.
Gardner Cowles, of the Register and

rooms which are now block east OF

finest of the quarters which have been
occupied temporarily outside of the
capitol building itself. 1t is a brick
fiat which the owner had finished and
furnished for his own occupancy. Mr..
Cowles has never been in the office OF
the board and Secretary Gem1nil has
never met him.
The substitution Of Des Moines
man for a resident of Cedar Rapids
practically marks the removal OF the

latter city to the state capital. 1t
has been something of a boast or joke
among members that Cedar Rapids is
the real capital of the state because
of the board of education personnel;
now the work Of this board as OF 9TH
