COPIES OF NEW THE LAWS.

They are Expected to be in Hands of County Clerks by April 15 With the exception of the Wood Senate bill concerning a police matron for the city of Lafayette, on which executive action has been delayed because of the bill’s being lost in the rush of affairs of the closing night of the General Assembly, all the acts of the recent session are now in the hands of the State printer. It is probable that the bound volumes will be In the hands of the county clerks and the clerks’ receipts in the hands of Governor Marshall by April 15. The acts as sent to the printer by the Secretary of State make 180 new law's. Two hundred and fiftysix pages have been officially O. K’d, and 192 of these pages have been run off the press. The volume of the acts of 1907 contained 697 pages of acts and 300 laws. Deputy Secretary of State Frank Grubbs, who has charge of the work in the absence of Secretary Fred A. Sims, said that virtually all of this week will be required in preparing the index for the volume. Mr. Grubbs is doing all the official proof reading. The first volume of the acts of 1907 was received at 3. o’clock on the afternoon of March 23, and it required seventeen days* to issue the remainder and place them In the hands of the county clerks.
