month OF December, and it is urged that,
on tnls account, legislation which
changes the date of a municipal election
IN those cities from the spring to a time
shortly prior to the commencement of
such hscal year is not special in it's char
acter. But this argument assumes what
IS not true, viz: hat it is only in cities
having more than one hundred thousand
lnnapltants that the fiscal year begins at
or about the time mentioned, and con-
sequently does not require consideration
here.
There being nothing in the grounds sug-
hat the statute before us ap-
Pnes to all cities which are distinguished
Dy qualities and attributes which neces-
state this legislation, or to which it
mas manifest relation, and none being
perceived, / am reluctantly compelled to
declare this law unconstitutional.
1 nave not overlooked the cases referred
to in the briefs of counsel with the re-
sponuent Such as in re Haynes rs yr.
Z; Mattheson v. Camfnade, 26 Vr. 4; and
Mclaughlin v. Newark, % Vr. EOS. and
winch. 1t is claimed, support the conten-
ton that the act under consideration is
not illusory in it's classification, and is a
general, not a special law. An examin-
alton of those cases, however. will show
that the statutes there dealt with relat-
ing to the structural forms of govern
ment and administration of the cities of
TINS state, on the basis of their popula-
ilon; and it is generally settled that, for
inns purpose the municipalities of the
State may be distributed for legislative
acllon into classes constructed upon this
pass, and that. in making such distri-
ture to determine where the line Of de-
marcation between the larger and smaller
segregation of people shall be placed.
.Ine distinction between such cases and
the present one is plain.
The relator is entitled to a peremntorv
mandamuS.

That the act does regulate the Internal
affairs of certain of the cities of the
State is apparent; the determination of
the question before US, therefore, must
depend upon whether tits q general law,
or whether it is local or special within
the constitutional meaning of h terms.
The effect of this constitutional mandat
upon legislation affecting only such cities
as have a population witlain prescribed
Units has frequently received considera-
ton, both in this court and IN the Court
of Errors, and it is now settled. beyond
controversy that population may be made
the basis of classification, in statutes re-
lating to municipal affairs, i'm all cases
in which it bears reasonable reLa-
ton to the subject matter of the legisla-
ZION. But, as was said by MIR. Justice
Depuc, in Warner V. Hoagland, % Vr. IS,
cit must b inferred from these decisions
that classification may be resorted to as
a means Of evading the Constitutional I'M
terdict against local or special laws, where
the classification is sllusory. A law
to be regarded as general only when its
provisions apply to an objects of legisla-
ton distinguished alike by qualities and
attributes which necessitnte the legIsla-
ton, or to which the enactment has, mani
fest relation. Such law must embrace all
and exclude non whose conditions and
wants render UGH legislation equally
necessary or appropriate to them as a
