Robertson and Wilder who ap
peared for the defendant made an

The High Sheriff who prosecuted
as we'll as the Magistrate admitted
that the law in it's present form
works a hardship and is even unjust
aud perhaps unconstitutional. The
Court held, however, that it had no
right to decide on points dealing
With constitutional questions, and
that its duty was simply to uphold
the m majesty OF the law whether tho
acts past by the Legislature were
bene fetal or otherwise. ST." said
the Judge, "csn simply deal with
the law as | find it, have nothing
to do with the federal laws but l
am here simply to enforce the ter
ritorial statutes. You wanted an
nexation and you have got it. 1t

persons who believe that on the 18th
