THE ROBSON PERFORMANCES.
Productions Hardly Up to the Usual


Stuart Robson and his company appeared
g. English's Opera House yesterday after
noon and last night in a revival OF Oliver
Goldsmith's charming comedy, "She Stops

large, but this fact would be more keenly
regretted had the production been of the
excellence which the advance notices gave
the public a right 10 expect. With the
exception of the exterior scene in the last
act the settings were not at all out of the
ordinary. the scenery used in portraying d

DEMURRER Is SUSTAINED.
Court Decides Against X. b. Gates i'm
Baking Powder Dill.

Judge Carter, of the Superior Court, yes
terday sustained the demurrer of Secretary
OF State Hunt to the suit of Harry b.
Gates, TO compel him TO have what is
known as the Gates baking powder bill'
printed with the words "or bitartrate of
potassium" inserted in the place where
they are alleged to have been erased. The
original bill provided that it should be
unlawful for any person to sell in this
State any baking powder that contained
bitartrate of potassium. or cream of tar
tar. The bill was signed by Governor Dur
hin after it is alleged to have been altered.
The change in the bill made it valueless for
the purpose for which it was intended.
While the demurrer is sustained the ruling,
liz effect. declares the law unconstitutional,
because the bill signed by the Governor is
not the bill that was passed by the Gen
eral Assembly.
In ruling upon the case Judge Carter said:
1T appears that an erasure has been
riade, and that ink had been used where it
occurs, but nothing appears TO indicate in
any way what words were erased. Many
similar erasures appear in other enrolled
acts. presumably made to correct mistakes
In enrolment.
such erasures are not what have been
called death wounds. which constitute ex-
CeptiOnS TO the general rule. that lne
courts Will not go behind e~llrollo0 acts.
The evils of this rule are apparent, but
they are certainly less han those which.
which would arise under a rule by which
il could never be known what a law was
Until it had been adjudicated by the courts
of last resort.
THE writ charges that the enrolled act
was changed after il was presented to Gov
ernor Durbin. Under the rule that plead
ing must bC most strongly construed against
the pleadcr. This is equivalent to an aver
ment that the act was altered after it was
presented to him and before he signed it
An act does no. become a law until il Is
signed by the Governor. or passed over ms
veto. or permitted by him to become a law
10y default.
1T follows that. if these are the facts,
Governor Durbin did not approve the act
passed by the two houses, but something
else. This is as fatal to il as if the same
act had not passed both bodies of the Leg
islature."
Judge Carter said that while he had th5
case under adviSement he visited the secfe-
tary of states office and sixteen
enrolled bills. Out of this number he said
he found that thirteen had been changed

number of others. The cOnstitutionality OF
the law was not handled in the decision, as
The validity OF the bill was not attacked
and it will be necessary for further pro-
ceedings to settle this point. Ovid b

BRIEF I'm THE BANKS CAST
DEFENDANTS ATTORNEYS FILED
DOCUMENT IN SUPREME COURT.
Judge Carter, of Superior Court, Sus-
der Case-News of the Courts.

]. L. Mccullough and John j. Rockford,
attorneys for John Banks, the negro who
was convicted on a charge of attempting
to bride j. Wesley Bridges, an election Of
ficer, filed a brief for their client in the
Supreme Court yesterday. The document
is exceedingly voluminous, covering seven
ty-three printed pages. Sixty-two pages
of the brief are devoted to a statement of
by the Marion County Criminal Court upon
which Banks relies for a reversal of the
Judgment of conviction against him.
In their argument Messrs. Mccullough
and Rockford declares that the trial court
took an erroneous view of the case in as
Stunning that if Bridges was likely to be
appointed an election officer and Banks
attempted to bride him to do certain things
after such appointment. the defendant
would be guilty of an offense under the
statute. The attorneys claim that the
statute under which Banks was prosecuted
is directed only against promising or offer
ing a bride to an officer or contemplated
officer, with intent to influence him with
respect TO the discharge of his official
duties, and not with respect TO any other
duties. 1T follows, therefore" says the
brief, that it can never be an Offense,
under this statute, to offer money or thing
OF value 10 a person who is not an officer
TO influence his conduct with respect to any
matter which is TO take place at a time
when he is not an officer. and, hence, at
"a time when he can be charged with no Of
flcial duty with respect TO that matter or
any other; and this is no less SO If the
person to whom the offer Is made has been
designated or nominated by some one for
an office than if he had not been SO desig-
mated or nominated, because designation or
nomination does not constitute him the Of
ficer. The brief also urges that it was error
Tor the trial court to exclude offered teSti-
mony as TO the conversations Banks had
With Mayor Taggart, and with the witness
eS DuSan and Cramer. The first of these
conversations occurred on the 18th of Oc-
tcber, 1900. the day after Bridges had first
approached Banks, according to Banks's
testimony, upon the subject of selling bal
lots for money, at which conversation Tag
CART gave Banks directions as to what to
do in the matter. The brief asserts that
these conversations were so intimately con-
nected with the alleged offense as to be
relevant testimony. \ case is cited in which
a man charged with shooting another de-
clared he had no intent to do the shoot
ing, and evidence was admitted that he
had said a short time before the shooting
that the gun was not loaded.
The record and papers in the Banks case
were taken TO the attorney generals Of
flee Immediately after the Banks brief was
filed, and c. G. Hadley, deputy attorney
| general, will at once begin preparing the
brief for the State.
