LINCOLN , March ff ( Special. ) The supreme
premo court today disposed of what la known
as the Omaha canal iaso. lly the terms of
the opinion the act. of the legislature of last
winter , under which It was sought to sub
mit a proposition for the voting of bond ? , lo
declared null and void , The opinion was
written by Commlsrlonor Ryan , concurred In
by Justices Norval and Harrison , Commis
sioner Irvlno not sitting , and Chief Justice
Post dissenting.
At the last session of the legislature there
was pnsjred an act entitled "An act enabling
counties In the stnlo of Nebraska having a
population of not less than 125,000 Inhabit
ants , to Issue bonds t& construct , own and
operate canals In the state of Nebraska for
navigation , water power and other purposes ,
and generating of electric and other power ,
and transmitting of'the ' KOIUO for light , heat ,
power and otner puritoosa , and to acquire
right of way and land for such purposes , and
to provide for the appointment of a board of
tiustees to carry Into effect the purposes of
this act , and to levy taxes to pay the same
and Interest thereon , and to repeal section
2.D32 A , Consolidated Statutes , 1833. " In
Nebraska , Douglas county alone has a popu
lation eufllciont to enable It to comply with
the provisions of the bill. It Is provided In
thin act that the honjls which might bo Is-
oued shall not exceed In amount 10 per cent
of the assessed valuation of the county , and
that the proposition ! to vote such bonds must
first bo submitted to the voters of the county
In compliance with n petition signed by 2,600
legal voters , which petition must be presented
to and acted upon by the county commis
sioners. Such a petition was presented to
the commissioners of Douglas county , and
they refused to call an election , lly man
damus It was sought , In the district court of
Douglas county to compel the board to call
the election. The case was that of David C.
1'atterson against the Hoard of County Com
missioners of Douglas county , and others.
In the district court the Judgment was ad
verse to Patterson , and ho appealed to the
supreme court , which has Just decided In
favor of the county commissioners , thua
sustaining the lower court. The principal
point matlo by the court In Its decision Iff
the Invalidity of the law of 1ED5 , owing to
defective title. Following Is the syllabus :

It a corporation wjis , nugntory , because In
effect the general corporation law In ex
istence was thereby .sought to be amended
\ylthout Its provisions , being referred to in
any way ( n the amendatory act.

In the ecu Itself provision was made for
the appointment of in. board , of trustees ,
which , when orsanlzed , should > -ln law and
equity be construed ta .body corporate and
politic , . and „ \ ntlil \ . " board' the -act pro-
vldcdhthere should be vested-ithe power to
construct and operate such canal , and that ,
for those purposes such board of trustees
mlKht. In Its own name , acquire right-of-
.way and other required land , even by con
demnation proceedings. If necessary ; Held
that the subject- the act was not clearly
expression Irv.Its title , , as required In section
11 , article ill. of the constitution of Ne
braska , and that since this defect rendered
Inoperative Its other'provisions the'f entire
act Is'null and void. .
It > concluding his opinion Commissioner
Ryan says : "The rlght _ of eminent domain
by the provisions of tlio act was delegated
directly tothe board of trustees as such ,
and the title of the property acquired by Its
cxerclso , or In any other way , for the con
struction and operation of a canal , Is to be
held by the board of trustees In Its corporate
capacity. The title 'of this act Is 'An act
enabling counties to issue bonds , to construct ,
own and operate canals , ' etc. , and 'to ac
quire right of way and land for such pur-
pjses , and to pro/Idq for the appointment
of a board of trustees , to carry Into effect
the purposes of this act , and to levy taxes'
to pay the same and.ho . ( Interest thereon , '
etc. Of these enumerated .purposes the power
to Issue bonds and the "power to levy taxes
for the payment of the > principal and Inter
' est thereon are "contained In the body of
'tho act without Questfpn In a certain sense ,
perhaps , the provision In the tltlo for the
appointment of a board of trustees to carry
Into effect the provisions of this act finds
response In the provisions of the bill which
turn over to said boird the whole property
as It Is acquired or constructed. But It Is
believed that no power of construction. Is
adequate to the task "of demonstrating that
the powers of a county to own and operate
canals , and to acquire'and hold land for such
purposes as provided-In the above tltlo , arc
at all met by providing In the bill Itself that
such power shall bo , vested In a 'specially
created district corporation , even though mu.
nlclpal , Independent 'of ' the county as well
as Its ofllccrs and taxpayers. The title of
the bill is Uicrcforo misleading as to a part
of the act , without which Its purpose could
not bo .accomplished , and since this part of
the subject is not clearly expressed In the
title , as required by eoctlon 11. article 111 ,
of tbe constitution of tho. state , no part of
the act can be sustained. Ives against Nor-

To ( 'rant thin molldn would be to justify

Jury was Instructed , 'As we are of the"1
opinion that , the motion for a now trla'
must be overruled , for the reuron that there
had been BUKgestcd or Discovered In the

results that , upon the general verdict , Judg.

It IB therefore deemed advisable to rnalce

censor a certain sum , which It was aliened

It wa alleged that the o.npolnRtreasurer

of Indebtedness of the same character as
those which had formed the basis of liabil
ity of the b-xnk to himself to an amount
t-qual to that for which ho was sought to
be hold , lly reply. It was , In effect , ad
mitted that the outgoing treasurer had
tnmed nver to hH pucce ser all ehosps In
notion that ho had received as treasurer , In
like form of evidences of Indebtedness with
those uhlch ho had received , but It was
averred that such payment was Ineffectual
to release the outgoing treasurer , because ,
as insisted by the plaintiff , nothlmr but cnh
could bo treated as payment. Held : That

proofs consistent with the theory of each

1. In the absence of statutory restriction
upon the subject , the method employed In
the monetary transactions of the world by
which payments are made , and charges and
credits adjusted through the agency of

so far applicable to custodians of public
funds In this state as to render them liable
for remittances by that means made and
received , provided puch mstiuments be In

VALIDITY OF TRANSFERS.
Brown against Westerlleld. Appeal from
Lancaster county. Afllrmod. Opinion by
Judge Norvnl. An allegation In a pleading
thnt the grantor "made and executed" a
deed , Included all acts essential to the
completion of the muniment of title , the
delivery of the Instrument to the grantee ,
as well as the signature of thp grantor.
2. The loss or destruction of a deed , after
dellverj' thereof , does not divest the title
of the grantee.
3. The delivery of a deed Is essential to
render the conveyance operative.
1. Delivery Is purely a question of Intent
to be determined by1 the facts and ' cir
cumstances of each particular cn e.
B. It Is not essential to the validitv of a
deed that It should bo delivered to the
Rrantee personally. It la sufficient. If the
grantor delivers It to n third person , un
conditionally for the use of the grantee , tha
grantor reserving no control over the In
strument.
G. A mother signed and acknowledged a
deed before n-justice of the peace , conveying
to her minor daughter certain real estate ,
and delivered the deed to the Justice for
the use and benefit of the urantee. without
any reservation of control , with the Inten
tion nnd understanding that the Justice
should retain the custody of tint Instrumen'
until the grantor's death , when he was ] c
H'o H for record. The mocner subsequent ! *
told thd daughter that the property bo'onuod
to the latter , nnd that It had been flxq <
so she would have a home. Hold : That thr
delivery to the Justice ivns sufficient to
pass the title to the property to the grantee
at the date of such delivery.
