recommended al Republicans to

Sweeping Decision OF the Supreme
COurt-The Entire scheme Wiped Out.
The decision OF the Supreme Court in the Hud.
son County Boulevard case was delivered yester.
day by Chief Justice Beaseley. After reviewing
work already performed in the survey OF the pro-
posed avenue the Chief Justice said that the law
under consideration cannot be enforce in any
mode as at present constituted. Its confusion ana
uncertainty In matters OF the utmost Importance
would Alone in his estimation, forbid any judicial
attempt to put it IN iorce 1t is illegalized r ON
the presence in It OF delegations to the official
body OF power which can be exercised by
the Legislature alone, and which are not
IN their nature transferable to any other
apportionment OF the expense there is an uncer-
talnty destructive OF the act. This uncertainty
applies not only to app0rtionment to the land
pense to the public, and this uncertainty Is so
great shat IT Is impossible judiciay TO put 1t into
force" The second objection raised by the Court
was as to Its direction Tor the raising OF the quota
ute Is silent as to how the quota OF each township
is to be determined The mode OF de-
termlning the taxable properly II the
excss b the a
fairness and q seasOnable discretion Is vested IN
this body OF persons to distribute this tax accord
Ing to It's Judgment OF what Is just or right among
the various townships In the county," Such an act
cannot he enforced for the reason that the Legisa.
lure mas transferred to these Commissioners part
OF the law making power. The act IN question Is
o. tnis character and Is therefore so clearly im-
perfect, as an act OF taxation, that II must be
ludicia.iy regarded as nullity. The Court further
rueu tnat the entire proceedings should be set
ASIDE, even though the proceedings already taken
ground tnat the statute was imDeratiye and could
not be carried into effect.
