under which the Southern Bank proceeded.
the municipalities were again reunited In one
corporation, and the debts of all consolidated,
but on the condition that each was to pay it's
own debt and to be taxed proportionately
Herewith on the basis Of the assessment Of
1851, and 1t was upon this understanding that
the consolidated bonds were Issued. By an
act passed In 1856 this apportionment was
changed, and q uniform and equal tax on
all real and personal property throughout thu
city established for the payment OF the con.
solidated debt and interest.
Upon this Legislation the court holds thti
the condition precedent to reunion, that
each municipality should have paid all IL
debts, was waived by the act of 1852; thatth |
requirement that each municipality should |
pay its relative proportion Of the consolidahd |
debt could not be enforced, and the appor- |
tionment Of taxation on that basis wenot |
equal and uniform, and, therefore, the taxvas |
unconstitutional.
By the act Of 1852 the municipalities we're
obliterated and one corporation crestd. OF |
which they were parts. The consolidltjon Of
their debts was a novation. by whichte city
In bulk the debts Of all.
Taxation to be equal and UNIFORM, sifer the
reunion, must be based on the niue OF
and not on the relative debtof each
at the time Of the consolation.
The point that article 127 Of the cnstitution
Of 1S45, requiring uniformity OF ts1stion, ap-
piled only to State and not to muaidpal tax
alton, was overruled. The enudation of
this doctrine by the Supreme Curt in the
Duncan case, and its affirmatioe Ii the case
Of Lafayette vs.. Cummings, We mere obiter
dicta, but the doctrine was falssh any event.
In regard to the contract rglb claimed by
relator, under the act Of 1852 Ge court says
the bonds are the evidence The contract,
which Is to pay the amounts situated, prin

The Pedo- Mote r.

From the rarlor or roller skate has been
evolved curious device called pcdp-mo-
tor. The apparatus is practically a san
dial shod with wheels and is designed to
assist the lame and halt in walking and
the ordinary walker IN max ING good time
The sandal is provided with four wooden
wheels bound with rubber two on each
side. and when strapped to the boot gives
the wcarcr firm footing. From the toe
projects point, or supp cnen:ary toe.
Shod with rubber and ut the heel is Il
similar projection almost touching the
ground and Shod with leather. In using
these wheeled sandals the ordinary walk
ing step is taken. one foot giving the body
a slight push with the puSher or toe,
while the other foot rests fiat on the four
wheels. The result obtained is a greatly
heightened stride as the sandal rolls for
ward under the influence of the push and
the walker practically gets over much
more ground and with less cxertion than
in ordinary shoes. The pedo-motor is re-
ported to give good walker Il speed of
- miles an hour over good sidewalks.
and while the apparatus may be regarded
as a mechanical curiosity, it is worthy of
some attention ON account of its promises

manner this wheeled sandal may lead in
