CODE COMMISSION WILL
REPORT IN FEW DAYS

Within the next ten days the
legislature will receive the first
report of the code commission,
appointed by the last legislature to
zecure rccompilation of the
Nevada statutes. This work has
been carried out by the justices
of the supreme court. who were
appointed as the code commission,
with the aid of Walter ID. Cole, the
Tonopah attorney, who has since
mo we'd his offices to Oakland, Cal.
Mr.. Cole has practically performed
all the work. He first consulted
the statutes of all western stat, S
and later secured an excellent
compilation of the laws, which
have not been systematically
revised since 1869.
The civic codes practice, with
the amendments. is in the hands
of the state printer, and will be
submitted to the legislature in
about 10 days. This will be
followed by the criminal practice
and the section devoted to crimes
and punishmcnts. Later will
come the sectors devoted to lands
and agriculture, revenues. taxes
and licenses, corporations and the
probate acts. All will carry many
amendments.
The fish and game sections will
be handled by the commission of
that name, which will present a
measure covering the subject in
its entirety. Matters relating t.
the public schools will be handled
by the state superintendent Of
public instruction, together with
the aid of the district deputies.
The question of fees will in all
probability be referred to the
different county delegations, before
being brought before the lcgis-
lature for final action. II will be
the endeavor of the commission to
consult with the Legislature as a
whole on the election avs, for it is
assured that legislation on this
subject, relative to primary
elections, will come up during the
present session.
The task Of revising the laws
has been under way for the past
two years and when compiled
Nevada will have a volume of
complied laws that will be a credit
to the state. Silver State.
