The Opinion on the Commissioner Ct
Valuation act,


As announced by special telegram IN
the last issue of The Free Lance, the
Court Of Appeals declared Friday that
the tax valuation commissioner act
passed by the last General Assembly L.
Unconstitutional. The fact that no ie-
corded vote was taken when the aci
was passed settled its fate
Judges James Keith. Juo. W. Reilly,
Richard II Caldwell and George NJ
Harrison, sitting, came 70 this opinion
unanimously
The death.knell Of the measure,
which promised lucrative positions e.
many persons. was rounded In cOnnec-
ton with the habeas corpus proceedings
OF Lambert W Smith, sergeant, which
had been extensively argued.
Judge Keith read the opinion. ltiol-
lows:
This day came again the PARTIES by
counsel, and the court being of opln-
ION that the act OF the Gsnecal Assem-.
bly, entitled AN Act 81 provide for the
appointment II commissioners OF valu-
alton, and defining their duties, np
proved March ., 1900, carries with II
an appropriation Of public money, and
that Section II. Article 10 Of the CON.
stitution Of the State provides that up
on the passage Of every such act that
the vote shall be determined by ayes
and noes, and the names II the person
voting for and against the same shall

spectiye houses. and a MAJ nifty 4 al
the members elected o each Hou.e shall
be necessary 10 give II the force Of
law. and II appearing r. IN the re- :
ord that the vote was not taken and en
tered as provided by said Section IL.
and che court being Of opinion that i
cannot separate 50 much Of the act a.
appropriates money and hold II
be bad while maintaining the validity
Of the rest Of the law but that nor
having been passed as required by Sec
ttOn II Article 10. above quoted, that
no part Of the act has the force OF a
law.
Aud it appearing to the court tina
the act aforesaid Is null and void by
reason of its repugnance TO the Don
stitution Of this State, therefore It l.
considered by the court that the sAio
W. +. Lambert Is illegally detained IN
custody and il Is ordered that he be
discharged.
Judge Keith then directed that al
order be entered Diminishing oil other
petitions on the question Of the validi-
~ Of the law without cost The court
