INCORPORATION LAW
Amendments Suggested and
Where the Newspapers
Also Come In.
Mr.. EDITOR:

Mr.. EDITOR:
You are dout tless familiar with
the State law requiring that the word
Incorporated" be placed on all sta
tionery and advertisements used by
incorporated concerns in this State.
AS a printer and a publisher, you
know what was intended as safe
guard to protect legitimate mer-
chants against INSCRIPTIONS per-
sons who might be shielding them
selves behind privileges extended to
interpretations, has in its practical
workings proven a hardship on the
honest merchants and manufacturers
of this State.
The law governing corporations is
good one in the main, and the
feature of it pertaining to the use of
the word incorporated" is all right
insofar as it requires the word to
be placed on all bill heads, letter
heads and statements, also on the
sign at the place of business, but to
require that it shall appear on all
newspaper advertisements, and ad-
vertising matter of all sorts, cards,
circulars, or what not, is an utterly
useless requirement, entails a hard
ship upon all advertisers and profits
nobody but the county and district
prosecutors.
1t is source of embarrassment
and annoyance to all newspapers
who publish advertisements, often
occasioning them a loss of business
and sometimes loss in damages.
Last summer, the writer took this
matter up with some wholesale mer
chants in Louisville, and House Bill
| No. 81 (Kinkead) is the resulting
amendment asked for, and embrace
the following changes:
First-that the abbreviation Inc.
: be acceptable.
Second-That this zinc" be use'
Tin conjunction with" instead o
under" the firm name.
Third-That it is to be used onl
on bill heads, letter heads, state
t ments, and the sign at the places o
business.
Fourth-That the maximum per
atty be 500.
n These changes are conservative
n do not affect the intent or meanin
y of the law, save deal of unnecesss
IS ry worry to both merchant an
y printer and for these reasons, tn
aid of the newspapers is invoked
securing its passage.
}. Respectfully,
r GEO. E. CARY.
