COUNTIES
MAY VOTE ON
LOCAL LAWS
LOCAL LAWS

That enabling legislation giving
electors of county the right to have
a referendum vote on State laws per
tanning solely to their county, would
conform to the Constitution, is the
opinion OF the Attorney-General's
Office, indicating that the principle
of A. B. 100, introduced by the Elko
county delegation, is correct.
There is one error of the bill, how
ever, in that it requires a petition of
20 per cent, whereas the Constitution
makes 10 per cent petition sufficient
in county referendums.
The AttorneyGen Office con-
strues the constitutional provision
with reference to county referendums
to apply to any laws made ''for" any
county, thus including State legisla-
ton.
The bill is the aftermath of siren
uous attempt on the part OF citizens
of Elko county some time ago to vote
on State law for the issuance OF
bonds for a high-school at Wells
They failed and the high-school re-
Gently was dedicated They went into
the Supreme Court twice in the mat
ter The first time they got petit
ton for a referendum from 10 per cent
of the electors of Elko county The
second time they got petition to the
extent of 10 per cent OF the vote OF
the State The Supreme Court denied
redress on the gorund that the Legis-
lature had not passed enabling laws
putting into operation the constitu
tional amendment for the referendum

BEST KEEPING QUALITIES

For best keeping qualities, apples
should be picked as soon as they are
well colored and before they are over
ripe. However, if picked too green
they will shrivel, while if allowed to
become too ripe they will become dry

that west of Green Cove Springs,
where one company has bought eleven
thousand acres of land and is fencing,
clearing and pulling the stumps from
same and planting the entire acreage
to camphor. Mr.. Hood ranks as the
leading authority on the camphor
industry in the United States today

progress that he found on Heather
Island, stating that one little nursery
of about 10000 camphor trees was
the finest that he had ever seen. One

that of oranges, turpentine, phos-

honors and profits.
