The wolf.Beunty Law,


B1sMARcK, Oct Is, 1s95.-Edward S.
ALLEN, Esq, States Attorney, Bis
marck, N. D.: am in receipt of your
communication of the ll,h instant, in
which you make certain inquiries in
regard to the law providing for bounty
follows: "If county commissioners, un-
der proper petition of stock-growers
make a bounty on wolf scalps, Tor what
time does same run, provided there is
nothing in resolution Of county COM
missioners as to the time the same is to
run. Does it run as long as the law is
in force, or can commissioners stop
same at any time they desire, or in one
year from the time it commenced?"
The law involved is section l, chapter
II, of the laws Of 1891, and it provides
that the county commissioners of each
county in the state of North Dakota
shall, upon the petition of twenty-five
stock .raisers, offer a bounty not to ex-
and every wolf or coyote killed within
the limits of their county.
This is law of local application and
is permissive. It is wen settled that
the legislature has the power to pass
laws OF this nature, and to make such
laws conditional to take effect only
on the happening of contingent events,
and when such contingent events shall
have happened the law becomes in full
force and effect and, unless limited as
to time in the act itself. will continue
in force until repealed by legislative
enactment. The Contingent events in
this particular permissiVe law are: the
petition by twenty five stock -raisers
and the fixing of the bounty BY the
commissioners. The petition having
been made according to law. and the
commissioners having once fixed the
amount of the bounty. am of the
opinion that the commissioners cannot
reconsider their action or do any other
thing to disturb the force and effect
of the law.
Very truly, yours,
JoaN f. CowAN,
Attorney General.
