An Omaha Chinaman, anxtpys to wed a
white wife,' It exacted to apply for a
marrtugo license in Council Bluffs' today,
and It he geta It he will have to comply
with all the requirements of the Iowa,
law, even of the mot technical character.
Word came from fllbur City last evening
that the Chinaman applied there for a
license and was refused, and that he left
announcing that he would securo a li

Ministers Hear of
Work of Iowa Public
Welfare League
The worl accomplished by the Iowa
Public Welfare league was outlined to
the Methodist Minister"' association of
Omaha at its meeting In room 212 of the
Young Men's Christian association yes
terday afternoon by C. L. Baxter, super
intendent of the Council Bluffs district of
the league. He explained the methods
w)iereby tho Iowa organization solves,
civic, Industrial, economlo and moral
problems. The Methodist ministers voted
to' have a committee consisting of the
president, Vice president and secretary
bring the matter before the Omaha Min
isterial union with a view to arranging to
have Mr. Baxter present the plan to that
body as soon as possible. The Omaha
Methodist ministers expressed the hope
that such a league could be established
In this city, that gambling and other
vices might be suppressed, especially dur
ing certain festive occasions here.
Mr. Baxter explained that (he league
was an organization of luwa citizens, rep
resentative men of Iowa who are Inter
ested In the moral problems of the state.
He pointed out that the membership Is
not made public so that the work of the
organization does not lead to embarrass
ments In that regard. The secretary, of
course,' he said, must be known as ho
maintains headquarters,
"Seventy-five per cent of the cases of
violation of law can be handled by let
ter," said Mr. Baxter, "so that It Is not
so often necossary to make arrests and
prosecutions. We believe In getting the
evidence and then writing the man vio
lating the law, setting forth that we
havo all the evidence necessary to prose
cute htm, and ask him to stop without
forcing us to go to the extent of prose
cuting him."
Some of the problems successfully dealt
with In Iowa by the league, according to
Mr. Baxter, are the cigarette habit,
gambling In many forms, Intemperance,
the tramp and what to do with him, the
discharged convict and how to find em
ployment and many other matters.
The Omaha Ministerial union will hold
Its meeting the third Monday. In January,
at which time It Is likely Mr. Baxter will
be" given an opportunity to explain Uie
working of the league to that body.

will undoubtedly be entered against the
