Every piece of legislation .that has been placed on the statuate booken in recent years, has been restrictive and hampering th rights of the mall operators. In this time of depréssion, it is just and right that restriction should be lifted in so far as it is goed public policy to do so,-we believe that this particular measure is in keeping with good public policy at this time, It does not permit the dealing in ‘‘Fake’’ mining stock as ene paper said, It will permit the prospector to go back into the hills and take his chance at making his *“‘stake’’ if he makes a find. An extra session of the legislature hes been made a vertual certainty by a statement in the press today. Gov. Rolph has said he will call a special sesion in the fall to consider this important problem. This will give the representatives time to go home and make a study of local conditions. the 49th state of the Union.
