The Biipromo court has declared
void tho normal board law which
Stato Oil Inspector Arthur Mullen had
Introduced In the lust legislature. Ah
tho court declared the now board In
valid it did not pass on tho question
of tho eligibility of T. J. Majors of
l'eru who was a member of tho legis
lature when ho was appointed by Gov
ernor Shallenherger. Tho object of
tho law waB to legislate out of ofllco
the old state normal board to give
placo to a now ono that was to bo ap
pointed by tho governor.
Tho court overrules tho demurrer
nied by tho new board which alleged
that tho petition of Attorney General
Thompson did not stale facts sufll
dent to coiihtltuto a cause of notion
and that there was a misjoinder of
parties. Tho writ In quo warranto
prayed for by tho attorney general
will be issued declaring the old nor
mnl board to bo the legally consti
tuted board.
In adhering to the constitutional
provision that an act of tho legis
lature must contain but ono subject
clearly express In tho title and that It
must nnmo tho sections to bo amend
ed and repealed, the court llnds that
the act did not refer in any way to an
Independent act creating the stato
normal school at Kearney which says
the normal board now In control shall
manage (hat Institution. To hold tho
now act was amendatory of this
separato net would bo contrary to the
constitution and to hold tho new act
constitutional would result In retain
ing tho old board In control of tho
Kearney school and tho now board In
control of tho Peru nchool and Junior
normals.
Tho opinion says: "Tho amendatory
act contains nn attempt to amend and
repeal tho governing statute of the
Kearney normal school by amendment
of nn Independent s(ntuto relating to
the stato normal school at Peru and
for (hat reason contravenes the con
stitutional provision that no law shall
bo amended unless the new act con
talus tho section or sections so amend
ed and tho section or sections so
amended shnll be repealed."
"It was suggested In consultation
that tho point last above mentioned
was not porsrntod Ion tho argument
or In the brief of (he relator, and
therefore should not beeoiihiderod.
The answer to tho suggesilon is that
this is an action on behalf of tho state
brought by tho attorney general to
test ami determine the question of tho
validity of the statute in order to
further tho educational interest of tho
state, and If for any reason wo are
convinced that the statute Is uncon
stitutional wo ought to so determine;
for if the courts can, under such u pro
text, nullify the constitution, wo will
soon find ourselves openly defying
tho provisions of the fundamental
law which we havo solemnly sworn
to uphold."

that havo been made, this government
will at once prepare a demand on tho
Nlcarnguan government for repara

Tills ordering of tho Huffalo south

mediately to tho United Statin su
preme court and will cheerfully abide

"Arguments In this case began last
Apiil, and we aro glad to hae reuclu-d
un opinion. I do not moan th.it we
are pleased with tlio opinion Itself,

order a dissolution of the Standard

ther understand, is ordered to bo ef
fected on a pro raUi basis of appor
tionment. That is to tvay, tho heaviest
holders of Standard Oil itock would
reccivo a proportional number of
shares In tho stock of subsidiary com.
pauies."
