or The Supreme C, urt Of New York, at
late term, affirmed the unconstitutionality oil
an sppeal TO the people in any legislative
matters. Tie subject in question was
vote by the people of the State on the Free
School law. This decision removes all legis-
lative power from the people, holding that
the law making power is, by the State con-
stitution, vested IN the Legislature alone, and
thus bill which might otherwise be consti-
tutional, can be rendered unconstitutional by
requiring its validity to depend on vote OF
the people. Judge Hayner. of Minnesota,
we believe, originated this decision, on sub
hitting the liquor question to the people.
