Six new laws will go into effect
at midnight, July 81. Most of them
affect state departments, including
the salary bill and the omnibus ap-
preparation bills. Only one, the law
regulating the sale of oleomargar-
inc, affects the general public di-
rectly.
The new oleo law is intended to
take the place of the oleo law of
1911, which was declared uncOnsti-
tutional by the state supreme court.
The old law prohibited the sale of
yellow oleomargarine, which was
held unfair because oleomargarine
may have yellow tinge from its
natural ingredients. The new law
provides that the oleo must be at
least "55 per cent white" according
to government standards. Selling
or labelling oleomargarine as butter
is prohibited
Civil Service Act.
The law placing the state labor
bureau on a civil service basis, al
though it goes into effect August 1,
is in sense already in operation,
as the law provides that examina.
tions for appointments shall be held
in June. These examinations have
been held and all the old incum.
bents re-appointed, as all passed the
examinations.
The law recognizing the public
examiners department enlarges the
powers of the office in examining
the books and records of state and
county offices and of companies pay
ing a gross earnings tax.
An Aid to the Blind.
The employment bureau for the
blind is to be under the supervision
of the school for the blind at Fari
bault The agency is to endeavol
to secure for adult blind persons
suitable employment, to secure the
| attendance of blind persons at the
state school if they are not attend
| ing; to find markets for products
made by the blind, give them home
instruction, aid in securing tools an(
supplies for the blind, to aid in the
care of INDECENT blind, and to col
lect statistics on the condition O
the blind, causes of blindness ant
capacity for self-support.
| Salary Changes Made.
| The salary bill, although it is eff
| fectiye August /, makes a few
changes at the present time. TIL,
three most important changes, plac
ing the governors secretary ant
the supreme court clerk on a salar,
basis and reducing the bank exam
iner's salary from $4,000 to $4,000
are not made effective until Janu
airy l, 1915. The bill provides tina

Now that the Republicanhas the
city printing again. II Clerk Norell ia
financially interested In that paper, az

the taxpayers to curtail the verbos-
ity OF that gentleman In the reports
Of the meetings and other matters
for publication. At one-sixteenth OF
a cent a line 1t didn't make much
difference, but at three cents a line,
as under the present contracts, there
may be beautiful graft. In any
case, II the writer has 1t sized up
rightly. the law provides for payment
merely Of publication Of the city
treasurer's report. The New Time
does not for a moment think Mr..
Norell, whose reputation for honesty
Is enviable, would do such thing
deliberately, but 1t would be better
for him to somewhat curb his zeal
In this direction"
The New Time should practice
what 1t breaches. 1t makes heap
Of difference now that the New Time
failed to land the Village printing
how the minutes are written. II the
New Time had been successful in
getting the village printing at s
cents and 711z cents there would not
have been any need OF Issuing these
precautions. Does the New Time
editor recollect that he called the
Republican editor aside on Saturday
May 3rd and proposed that we with
draw our bid and put in bid for
the full legal rate for publishing the
minutes and that he would do the
same and have the minutes publish
ed In both papers In order that he
could be sure to get In on them also ?
There would have been no danger of
padded minutes II we had consented
to do this. We would suggest to the
New Time editor that he write right
with care.

have such measures. The alien land
law OF Washington provides that

state Of Arizona in 1912 enacted that
mo person not eligible to become q
citizen of the United States shall &C.
quire title to any land or real proper
ty," etc. Other states restrict all
aliens, generally. The federal con-
stitution contains a provision which
prevents a state from barring the cit
liens Of other states within the Unit
ed States, for that document requires
that there be no discrimination
against citizens Of other states with
In the United States.
The Webb Act, which California
substituted for the measure earlier
proposed, drops the phrase 'inelig-
ible to citizenship" yet preserves the
same distinction and arrives at the
same end in very much the same way
still relying upon the determinations
made by the federal law Of citizen
ship. Under it all aliens eligible toI
citizenship may acquire and hold land
In the same manner ~ citizens Of
the United States. All other aliens
may acquire and hold land "in the
