Part XI. General Provisions 

 According to Article 190: 



"The laws, regidations, decrees, and orders laid down as to matters dealt 

 with by the present law are abrogated as to every point in which they are 

 contrary to the regulations of this code, reserving to the code the rights pre- 

 viously acquired. . . ." 



It will probably be some years before complete and satisfactory 

 laws are enacted in all States of the Union. Necessarily, on 

 account of our form of government, there will be many discrepan- 

 cies and differences between the laws enacted in the various 

 States, and it is at least of interest to thus examine in some detail 

 the laws enacted in Algeria in 1903 to provide against forest 

 offences after a careful study by a government commission.
