SURELY UNCONSTITUTIO

That the crea ton of Daily county is
unconstitutional there now remains but
little doubt. Since the matter was
brought up before the county commits
sioners. a few days ago, several Ana
conda legal authorities have looked into
the matter and they all seem to be OF
the opinion that article of section IS
of the state constitution is plain in the
statement that the legislature has no
authoritW to change names "Of a person
of place"
Anaconda will certainly be in Deer
Lodge county again, Notwithstanding
the good intentions of the members of
the late legislature.
