Senate kills Lan vacating guards jobs
Des Moines dispatch reports Iowa Senate votes 44 to 10 to repeal a law that voids vacant civilian offices if incumbents are absent for 60 days due to military service. The measure targets National Guardsmen in federal service, with Senator Ule of Cerro Gordo as author. An investigation into state offices and a potential new state building were approved by a bipartisan Senate-House committee. A mine regulation bill to certify shotfirers may end a miners operators dispute, changing current practice of self-employment by workers. House focus shifts to road bond proposals likely to be introduced, enabling bonds for road building with public vote on >5 000. A separate push seeks to create a state banking department, separating banking from the state auditor. Bolivian aviator Captain Alarcon dies in flight near Buenos Aires.
