IMO:

Index for      Senate and House journals -->
Index for Iowa Senate and House journals

Minor.  Iowa Senate is variant is Senate.

Index for      Senate and House journals -->
Index for Iowa Senate and House of Representatives

Minor.  Remember, you need to check against origianl 245.  IMO:
* addition of Iowa is minor (variant name)
* deletion of journal is minor (after 1st five words and doesn't change scope of title)
* addition "of Representatives" is minor (variant name)
