New Stallion Law
The new Stallion Registration law
is practically a re-enactment of the
law of 1911 excepting that it names
as the Registration Board the Gov
rnor, State Treasurer and Commis
sioner of Public Lands and Buildings.
These are all executive officers as
named in the Constitution and cures
the defect in the old law as found by
the Supreme Court. The new law
{provides that all 1913 inspections
made and certificates issued by the
old Board are hereby legalized.
In the office at Lincoln are many
affidavits of inspections made, from
which the certificates can be issued
as soon as the three dollars fee is for
warded by the ow ners.
A new lien law was also passed
which should be satisfactory to all
stallioners, but if the stallion' owner
does not secure and post his stallion
► certificate as provided by law it is
doubtful if any service fee can be
collected by those not conforming
with the laws of the state.
