In addition to this he wish especially to caution ycu against the pracliC'. 1 of signing contract for niupn, charts, or other apparatus under any. circumstances, presuming upon the riaHic.ition of tho at a nubsoquent mecli.jg of the board.

Such practice is clearly illegal and should never occur. Governor has issued a formal cull for the meeting of the legislature on January 19, 1897. In his call ho speaks of tile necessity for tho rebuilding of tho institute, for the feeble minded at Glcnwood, which was burned down last summer.

Considerable excitement has been created by the report being spread abroad that tlalo sciaolnry elect Dobson will change the entire force in his olflee. Thw report, however, Mr. Dobson does not conflim, though ho does not demy at. Doubtless there will bo fcomo change mndo, for "Seme must watch while some must wocp, runs tho world away."

The Iowa fire insurance companies nro going about like Damocles of old, with a sworJ suspended over their heads with a huir. Since the Blunchurd anti-compact wont into effect they hiivu been in constant danger of loosing their business, and of being driven out by a general rate cutting by eastern companies. This occurred ia California, und may occur in Iowa. By it insurers would get very low rates till our Iowa coin- panicrjBpjiro gone, mid then such rates ffirthe custom companies were pleased to give them.
