Foreign Corporations Warned

Tonopah Bonanza: Perhaps the
law compelling foreign corporations
doing business in Nevada to publish
annual statements on the first of each
year is deemed a joke, judging from
the fact that so few are complying
with this statute. 1t is liable to
cause some of these companies to
pay a severe penalty. for there is as
surance that the provisions of the
law will be enforced to, the letter,
which it has not always been in the
past. 1t is much cheaper to comply
with the requirements before action
is taken to enforce the law. In one
county in Nevada last year mining
company, Incorporated under the
laws of another State, lost an action
in the courts on the grounds that it
was not a legally constituted corpor-
alton by reason of its failing to pub
lish its annual statement.

NEVADA PRESS COMMENT


Reno Gazette: A few State papers
and, we are informed. certain men,
bers of the Legislature, have ex-
pressed fear-and we have no wish
to question their sincerity-that if
certain minor State officers were
made appointive instead of elective,
it would mean a dangerous central
ization of power. Many municipali-
ties have wrestled with this same
problem, but in what city with a
population equal to the State of Ne
vada does the Mayor rot exercise
greater power than the Governor of
this State? As to the Federal Gov
ernment, the Treasury Department
alone has approximately 10000 en-
ployes, the Department of the In
terror has over 5000 in Washington
and 1900 outside. The Post Office
Department has nearly 100000 and
nearly 100000 of these positions are
not even competitive. We elect an
Attorney General on the theory that
a Governor might not be able to
make a selection creditable to the
State and its service. The Federal
Government appoints one and under
him are nearly 2400 other appointees.
The Government has a grand total
OF over 450,000 officials who are APP
pointed instead of elected, number
more than 20 times the total num-
Der of voters in Nevada.
1t would of course require con-
stitutional amendment to make these
changes. No one now in Office could
possibly acquire power additional to
what he now has unless reelected by
the people, and certainly the people
of no State should choose any man
for Governor in whom they would
have too little confidence to entrust
him with the appointment of three
or four officials whose duties in the
service of the State are largely cler-
ical.
If anything has at any time been
lacking to demonstrate conclusively
the folly and the inefficiency of the
present plan of State organization, it
was supplied during the last Admin
lstration. point on which former
Governor Oddie and Governor Boyle
would undoubtedly agree.

Wells Herald: The political sun
of w. C. Pitt of Humboldt County
has set. In the organization of the
Assembly last Monday he trained
with the Republicans on all PROPOSE
tions. aiding them in organizing the
House by safe majority. Pitt has
always professed to be a staunch
Democrat. and the flip-aop he turned
at Carson is advance notice that he
is not to be trusted politically. and
after this session is over he will have
no political standing in any party,
as all hands will naturally be afraid
of him. Every once in awhile some
legislator with bright prospects COM
mits some act that causes him the
loss of all prestige he has gained in
years of political training. Pitt is
not the first; nor will he be the last.
