Until june of Next Year

District Attorney A. s. Henderson OF
Eureka County is in receipt Of The fol-
lowing opinion from Nevada's Attorney
General:
Carson City, Nevada. May 8. 1903.
To the District Attorneys OF the sew
eral counties Of the State Of Nevada:
Gentlemen-Many inquiries regard
ing the construction of certain portions
Of what is popularity known as the
wild cat bill passed by the Legislature
Of 1909 (sfatutes. page 6S) are beinf
received by this office, therefore in
order that you may be advised as to the
views entertained by this Office regard
ing the construction Of those portions
of this Act which seem to be ambiguous
l beg leave to submit the following
conclusions:
The presence of the Act is to require
mining corporations owning, working
and developing mining property within
the State. and selling or Offering fol
sale any Of its shares Of stock. to furnish
certain information as to its affairs and
general condition for the use of the
| public. and also &c classify, so far al
| possible, the kinds of stock usually
issued by such corporations and to re
| quire the same to be designated al
TREASURY" OF promotion" stock. al
| such stock is therein defined, in order tt
prevent and discourage the issue and
sale of shares Of stock in alleged

NOTED solely for stock selling purposes
and not owning or possessing actual Of
prospective mineral rights or property
| sufficient to warrant the innocent pur
| chaser of stock to invest his gooc
money with the expectation Of &C
curing anything of value.
Legislation upon any new subject il
invariably defective in some respeca
and this statute is no exception. but il
is almost universally conceded that thiI
Act is a giant stride toward the pro
lection Of the mining company operating
and selling stock 10 good faith as wei
as the stock investing public, and tina
with a few minor amendments it vii
accomplish the good purpose for whicl
it Is intended.
Section Of the Act requires certain
statements to be fled with the Count,

these statements are required to be file
