the provisions OF Section Of the late,
Act wotid be defeated-for the Lew
Court could not then drop from the a.
Sessment the name Of any delinC uent
returned by q c3llector-snd we would
have the anomaly Of an Act Of the Leg
'slature repealed by a prior aot.
II, however, the Levy Court may, as
no one doubts it may, drop the nam I'd
OF delinquents returned by collectors
nnder the provisions Of the Act Of April
10, Notwithstanding Section 6 of April
y, may 1t not drop, and is it not equal
ly Its duty to drop, such names, wnsn-
ever and however they appear on the
assessment list within the period in
which the law says they shall not be
placed thereon am clearly OF opin-
ion that such is Its duty. do not think
ths Levy Court has any discretion in
the matter, as any placing OF such
names upon the assessment list is posi-
lively forbidden, and the command to
drop them from the list on which they
appear. |. is not necessary to inquire
but We may well doub! whether an as t.
sessment positively forbidden by law to
DO made is an assessment At all, wheth-
er it Is no: void and OF 10 effect, so that
the prohibition in that case would ex.
sOute itself.
| have not sdverted to the fact that
the terEs OF the question contemplate a
fraudulent evasion of the law, and Of
the sworn duty of the assessors, although
the views have presented are strength
ened by the reflection that courts will
always favor that construction of a law
which will most conduce to the accom-
plishment of its ends, and will frown
upon that which opens wide the door
to an evasion Of tho duties which IL i'm
poses.
II only remains for me to say that the
Levy Court in dropping the names of
delinqnents appearing on the assess.
ment within twelve months of the time
of their allowance, is acting under the
which these laws i'm
pose upon them, and muat be satisfied
as to all the facts upon which their
action is based.
