The State VS. The Sugar Trust

Timcs-Democrat.
The Louisiana Supreme Cont
yesterday decided the case of the.
State VS.. The American Sugar Re-
fipiDg Company or Sugar Trust,
ruling against the State and in fla
vor of the company.
The case was not a trust one,
and the decision does not affect in
any way the laws against trusts
and combines. 1t turned entirely
upon an act of the Legislature
which levied heavy taxes on the
Sugar Trusts in the form of IL
cense. This act, the Supreme
Court now decides, was improper
ly drawn up, unconstitutional, null
and void; and the court, calls at
tention to and points out it's many
defects.
The question was one wholly OF
legal Interpretation. What will
strike the average laymen as
strange In this connection is the
large number of statutes that can
not stand the investigation of the
courts. Every year a great many
of them are declared unconstitu.
tional; and it is pointed out by the
Judges that they are clumsily and
carelessly constructed and in bolc
defiance of the organic law. Wher
it is considered that such mistakes
of the General Assembly cause
great annoyance and entail ex
Ipense in litigation. it would seen
that the people have right to OK
pect and demand better work. Ii
consequence Of legislative careless
neBs, every law pow passed Is com
PEELED to stand an inquiry from
the courts and is suspended unit
it has passed muster; aud it is no
agreeable to find that so large
: proportion of these laws are foun'
very weak, faulty and unconstitu
E tional.

l We do not believe, like the Re
view, that the appointment of Mr.

creates a vacancy in the tow
council. If it does, however, VI
believe like the Review, that al
election to fiji said vacancy woul'
be unnecessary; and if our memo
ry is right, we believe the charte
says that no election should b
held to fill vacancy less than sil
months. The next town election
will be within six months.
