Jasper County Democrat, Volume 11, Number 84, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 27 March 1909 — NEW LAWS WILL SOON BE IN EFFECT. [ARTICLE]

NEW LAWS WILL SOON BE IN EFFECT.

Bound volumes of the acts of the recent Legislature will be ready for distribution next Saturday, according to information from the office of the Secretary of State. The shipments will be made direct from the State printer to the clerks of the ninety-two counties of the State, and no distributions will be made from the office of the Secretary of State until these shipments have been completed. Consequently those who expect to get a copy or two from the Secretary before the county clerks are supplied may as well save their postage and their time. The distribution will be made by the county clerks. As soon as the volumes are received by these officials, a receipt for the shipment will be forwarded to the Governor, and when the receipts are all in a proclamation will be issued by the executive and the laws will be in force. The books will be ready for distribution by the clerks as soon as received, no special word from the State officials being necessary. The distribution will be made at a much earlier date than expected. Frank I. Grubbs, deputy Secretary of State, has worked night and day on the copy and proofs of the acts, and completed his task approximately two weeks earlier than he had expected.—lndianapolis News.
