Is BEAVER LAW
INEFFECTIVE?
SOME ATTORNEYS BELIEVE ACT
PROTECTING ANIMALS AFTER
JANUARY I UNcON-
sTiTUTIoNAL.

According to the opinion of some
laws passed by the last legislature ex-
tending the closed term for beaver Is
unconstitutional, and the little fur
bearers VIII be without the protection
of the law for several months the
coming winter The old law provided
for the protection of beaver until
January /, 1911. The revised game
law passed by the Michigan legisla-
ture of 1909 went through the house
without the section referring to bea-
yer. obviously an oversight The error
was corrected i'm the senate by an
amendment and returned to the house
the latter body passing the amended
bill the last day of the session, I'm
fact the last hour of the session.
This would have made IL all right
were 1t not for the fact that the new
constitution adopted by the~. State OF
Michigan contains a clause which pro-
vides that all bills must be on the
desks of representatives for at least
| five days before their passage, other
wise they cannot become law. The
amendment referring to fur bearing
animals, makes that portion Of the act
new law, and as IL was not given
the required time in the house 1t is
therefore believed to be unconstitu'
tional. This would leave the old Law
i'm force and effect, and as the time
specified as being unlawful to traI
or kin beaver expires on January l
1911. II looks as though there would
he an open season for beaver unit
such time as the next legislature en-
acts a new law and makes 1t opera
tive.
Beavers have been protected by Law
COR number of years and under tina
protection have become much NOR
numerous in the upper peninsula tina
they were a few years ago. In fact
they have become so numerous /
some localities that there was senti
ment expressed last year against ex
tending the period of protection in tn
revised game laws. They have bee
cutie destructive in some instance
not only by destroying small tree
but by diverting the course of sma
streams with their dams, causing till
, ed lands to overflow, destroying croT
and soil.
