(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DE8 MOINES, July t-(8peclal.)-Of ths
300 new laws that become effective In Iowa
on Tuesday morning only about twenty of
them are of such general application that
all ths people are Interested. The last
general assembly pasned s larger number
of legalising acts than usual and also had
a larger number ot-the bills go Into effect
by publication. ' The book of the laws Is
printed and distribution will commence to
morrow. .
. The most Important change In any laws
relating to the criminal code was that
.which lessens the Importance of the grand
Jury by providing that a county attorney
may prosecute an offender upon Informa
tion as welt as4 on Indictment, or really
that the Indictment may me made by the
county attorney'. This does not do away
with the grand Jury, which will continue
to meet and make original Investigations,
but in ill-, cash that, are plain and direct
the action' In -court will be without waiting
for the grand Juty.' For one thing, this will
avoid a 'long. wait for some persons who
are throWrl Jn'jall during court recess. It
will have.' the effect of hastening court
work. "
But little 'else" of importance was done
regarding the .Criminal code of the state.
provision is made for having tha stats
authorities at the various Institutions un
sex criminals, insane and feeble minded
with a view to prevention of the propaga
tion of the undesirables. The law'' in re
gard to exposing for sale of vulgar and Im

counties a part to ba used for road work.
Tha 'road dragging law was made more
drastic, and it Is provided that the county
surveyor will, In time, become obsolete
and his' place be taken by a county drain
age or road engineer, '
- An Important "-change was made In the
liquor laws as affecting druggists. In that
(the druggist will be permitted to fill In cer-
tain of the blanks on the applications for
liquor to ba signed up at drug stores. This
wlll. be a great help to them and avoid
much annoyance. It Is also provided that
Jobbers In drugs may sell liquor at whole
sale the same as wholesale liquor dealers
and with fewer restrictions than In the
past...
. The state fire marshal law provides for
a state fire marshal who Is to Inquire Into
