The Compilation is q Necessity

Other people besides the public printer
are earnestly and honestly in favor of the
compilation of the present laws of New
Mexico, and they present some arguments
that may yet prove of sufficient weight in
the minds of the legislators to pass the
proposed measure for the purpose. A
law, the provisions of which are not
known, is about as Intellectual as law so
far in advance of public sentiment that it
can rot be enforced Vegas Optic.
