Yesterday's storm.

NEW YORK March 10-Sergeant Dunn
said that yesterdays storm was wide
spread and severe, covering the entire
country east of the Mississippi river and
that tornadoes were following in it's wake.
"The storm, in fact" said the weather
prophet, marks the breaking of the back
bone of winter, and tough backbone it
was to break, too. While we may have
slight flurries of snow from this time on,
we will almost certainly have no heavy
fall, or can we have any severe or prolonged
cold snaps"

An Important Matter.
o the Editor Of the Register:

To the Editor OF the Register:
SIR:-While the matter OF granting
charters is under consideration and
claiming something more than usual at
tention, it would be we'll for the Legis-
lature to consider and adopt some plan
by which applications for charters
would be carefully examined before
charters applied for are granted. SUI
.fieient attention has not been given this
matter In the past, and because,
apparently, of the facility with which
charters are granted. Under the present
state of affairs, 1t is almost impossible
for the Secretary OF State TO make
proper investigation OF applications for
charters, as the latter are frequently
granted In mis- absence by the clerks In
his office, and the number Of applica-
tions make it impracticable for him to
give each application proper considera-
tion.
The only remedy against such danger
ous haste in matter OF such acknowi-
edged public interest is the adoption OF
the plan pursued in other States which
experience has proved to be most salts
factory. In these latter all applications
for charters are turned over to the AT
torney General, who, after q careful ex-
animation of them, report to the Secre-
tary of State, who then acts advisedly
upon such applications. l noticed In
the REGISTER few days ago that three
charters had been granted to con- pan
les for the purpose of buying and selling
real estate. II this report is correct,
the granting Of those charters is in
direct opposition to the statute that
provides that no charters shall be grant
ed. 1t is certainly time that halt
should be called upon such wholesale
granting Of charters. No more serious
and important question could engage
the attention OF our present Legislature,
and no better action could be taken i'm
mediately by that body than the adop-
tion of the plan above suggested for
guarding against the dangerous mode
OF granting charters, which at present
exists In our State. PUBLIC GOOD.
