Opinion Rendered by WashingtOn's
Assistant Attorney Gen eraI.

Olympia. Wash. May 1S.-The arid land
law passed by the recent Legislature turns
out to be imperative, according to an
opinion rendered by Assistant Attorney

not substitute an officer to perform the
duties of the new law, or any part OF the
old law left unrepealed The effect of the
opinion will be to stop the selection of
arid lands under the provisions of the
Carey act, and prevent the expenditure

The question has sometimes been asked why Il
is that Maine statesmen arc reluctant TO seek

that the Governors OF Now England States are
by law committed to the approval or rejection

has no such responsibility; he merely recon-
