Attorney General Kirby's opin- ions are becoming SO numerous that few people have much res pect for them. They seem to be laid away on ice and ready for use on any occasion, whether re- quested or not. At least. the As sistant Secretary of State claims that Mr. Kirby shot out an opinion about that office forfeit ing the charter of the K. l. Ry., without the asking. The Secre- tayy of State was eminently correct in ignoring Kirby, and allowing the Railroad to go ahead with it's business.
