Than Comply with tha
Mulct Law.
Council 1 : ufTa will not be a dry town, at
least not In tho Immediate future, as at the
adjourned special meeting of the saloon
men yesterday afternoon it u decided
not to close, as had been suggested and
favoted by a number. The meeting yester
day afternoon was attended by almost
every saloon keeper in the city, and the
sentiment of the majority was that It
would be best to keep open for the present
and conduct the saloons according to the
mulct law. ' '
The saloon men I were not disposed to give
out much Inforrjitlon about the meeting,
e a number of them feel that the pub
licity which has been given to the saloon
flKht has done as much If not more than
anything else to bring about the present
cotidrttons. It Is understood, however, that
the meeting was not what may be termed
altogether harmonious. The -faction that
favored closing all the saloons was still In'.
Intent, and urged that this would be the
proper course to be pursued. To conduct
their saloons according to the mulct law,
they maintained, would prove a losing
proposition, and ' that they might as well
close now as be closed up by their creditors
later.
That a majority of the saloon men voted
against closing is, It to said, due to the fact
that thoy feared that If they closed their
places new men would enter tha business
and be prepared to meet the publlo demand,
ven If compelled the-conduct their saloons
In compliance with the mulct law.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, Jan- 81.-(8peclal.)-The
general assembly of Iowa may now be said
to have fairly started Its work. The fire
caused delay and there has been the usual
snd necessary delay at the beginning while
the State printer acta the nrlntlmr cunirht

to change the rule In anneal cne. in h
courts In regard to the assignment of er
rors and the bills to appropriate money for
inauguration expenses and for the nur.

for Soldiers' Orphans at Davenport. But
these bills had no opposition and repre

ing the question of dividing the state Into
sections for the preliminary contests, to
be followed later by the state contest, and
the changing the system of Judging will
come up for debate and will precipitate one
of the hardest fights ever waged In ora
torical circles. '
Jobbers Abandon Their Fight.
The Keokuk Jobbers have abandoned the
effort made some time ago to Induce the
Iowa Railroad commissioners to raise the
Iowa classification of freight rates and to
so arrange the rates that the Jobber liv
ing In the eastern part of the state and
along the borders of the state would have
an advantage over those In the central
part. The contention was that the Iowa
rates and schedules are not consistent with
the Interstate rates and should be changed
and Iff so changed there would be a de
cided advantage over the Interior cities
In favor of the jobbers living In border
cities. The railroad commissioners had
Insisted thst the petition of the Keokuk
men be brought to a head and that a hear
ing be granted. They had promised they
would furnish additional evidence of the
necessity for a revision of the rates but
they could not do so and Anally abandoned
the fight for a change In rates. It was
regarded as certain that If the fight was
continued the railroad commissioners would
have a hard problem ahead of them.
Changes la Kaaailnntlons.
The committee of the Stste Aasnci.tinn
Colleges having In charge the work of at-
imaing o me normal, departments Is
pressing the State Board of Educational
Examiners to make a change In the rule
of the board In regard to giving credit
for college work done. . The colleges of the
state have rom plained that the wnrk a.-..
by their students is not given full recog
nition Dy ine poara in considering the
qualification of teachers, and ikut th..
should be some encouragement to college
aora en las pan oi the state hoard. But
the members of the board Insist that the
law allows them no discretion In the mat
ter and that college graduates have the
same standing when they apply for certifi
cates that ethers have.
