HOW THE COURT VIEWED IT

In deciding the cases. the Supreme Court OF the
United States says the question Is Of the very
gravest Importance The question OF constltu-
ti6nality should not be decided. the opinion says
without mature investigation and only when alb
solutely necessary 70 the determination Of the
rights OF parties. Continuing. the opinion says
In the view We take Of these cases the rights OF
the parties may be passed upon and the actions
finally decided without our entering upon a dis
cuseon as 10 the validity OF the bounty ieglsla-
tion contained In the act Of 1880 and without de-
Gliding that question. For the purpose Of the dis
cusson OF this we think II unnecessary to
decide whether or not such legislation Is beyond
the power OF Congress. We are of the opinion
that In either case the appropriations OF money
in the act OF 1890 TO be paid to certain manufact-
urers and producers OF sugar who had complied
with the act Of 1890 were within the power Of
Congress to make, and were constitutional and
valid.
At some length the opinion describes the condi-
ton OF affairs existing at the time OF the passage
OF the appropriation act OF 1S9J citing the plac-
ing OF sugar the free list and the substitution
OF a bounty on sugar manufa ctured al home. The
act was approved by the President, and no quee-
ton OF It's validity was made by any officer of the
Government having duties TO perform under IL
NH'ie tHc llSOn was DelnR discussed In
Congress, the Court points out, no man could
foresee what that law would provide and In the
mean time the season was approaching when the
manufa cturer Of sugar must decide what to do
Certain things had to be done II he meant to avail
himself OF the bounties which might be payable
under the act At the same time, II the manu-
facturer made application and obtained his H.
cense and commenced the manufacture of sugar
he could not be certain that Congress might not
strike out altogether the provision for the pay
ment of any bounty. and leave him In such DO
sition that he could neither manufacture with
profit nor abstain from manufacturing without
loss. Continuing the opinion says:
In our opinion II is not correct 10 say that no
moral, equitable or honorable Obligation can at
tach In favor Of persons situated as were the
defendants IN error here. when the act of 1895
was passed. We think all obligations OF that
nature may arise out Of such circumstances
we regard the question Of The uncoh stitution-
atty OF the bounty provisions II the act of 1890
az entirely imnaterial to the discussion here
THESE parties did not at that time (when manu-
featuring under Its provisons) know that the act
was unconstitutional they could not be regarded
as falling to do their whole duty because they
proceeded with the manufacture OF sugar in re-
lance upon the bounty promised by the Govern
hent' under an act recognized by the officers OF
