The public prosecutor, although noti-

alleging that, as he understood the

the law unconstitutional which, howev-

applied at most to but one section of
the general law, leaving the rest un-
touched. McNally, however, was not
prosecuted under the general law but
under special act of 1859, an act that
was in no wise affected by the decision
of the court. His offense was a flagrant
violation of the statute by the use of a
gill net, and he may consider that he
got off very cheaply. The NORTHERN
