Smith Is not a lawyer, so he sought the assistance of the state's legal adviser. Mosher pounced upon it as unconstitutional be cause, he sad, it would abridge the right of contract. He stood strongly for the right of the laboring man to contract with a corporation to receive his wages In any way or at any time he pleases.
