BOUNTY JAWS AKE MUST
DIFFICULT TO TRACE
Code Commissioner Finds That They
Were Changed At Every Session
OF the Legislature

Helena.-Of nll the statutes in Mon.
tana. the bounty laws have been the
best footballs of many presented to
the various legislative assemblies, &C.
cOrding to I. w. Choate, who is revis-
ing the codes of Montana in compli-
ance with law of the last legislature.
MIR. Choate has been steadily employed
at this work for several months and
Is beginning to see the light of day
shining through the dusty tones of the
state law library in the capitol, in
which he delves for original acts,
changed with the times during each
legislative session.
Every session of the legislature
changed the bounty laws, and of all
the difficult statutes to trace, revise
and put in It's own place In the code,
that one gave the greatest difficulty"
Mr.. Choate explains. The game laws
OF Montana are badly jumbled and
need much revision, he says.
With Mr.. GinrOd, Mr.. Choate has
completed tracing the history of every
law In the statute books and is now
engaged in arranging the various laws
in the codes, in relation to their posi-.
tion with each other which will bring
about ready reference, in the four
codes.
Mr.. ChOate says the arrangement of
the general political laws are some.
what confused because of the many
changes which have been made by the
legislatures.
Under the provisions of the law Gre
ating the office of code commission
er, Mr.. Choate has encountered tedi.
Gus and intricate task, that Of de.
filming in the codes, the boundaries
OF all the counties. This requires
much research. as the laws creating
new counties are easy to find but as
each county was created boundaries of
Old counties We're changed.
In addition the part or all of any
law declared unconstitutional is also
determined, segregated and the author
fty cited.
