An examination OF what is known

. IS neither the legal status OF the
present Levy Cour: will in an way
be impaired or affected by the adj
mission TO the Lew Court OF the
two new appointees OF the Governor,
Messrs. Isaac c. Elliott and Merritt

The commissions of the Governor
to Messrs. Elliott and Willets we're
issued in accordance with aulhor-
itv and directions gwen in Section
t. of the said law The effect OF
4 that Section Is the establishment
y and creation OF L Seven Commas

vision totally inconsistent with the
Five Commissioner Levy Court law,
and as the act Of March 1th, 1901,
expressly repeats ali acts or parts
OF acts Inconsistent vii h or super
coded ty the act OF March It'll, 1901,
i. must therefore be that the old or
I've COMMITS sioner law OF April
2bth. 1891, has been repealed and
thereby the Five Commis sloner Levy
Court abolished from and since the
at Of March TN, 1901, became a

tcm does not 90 INTO effect under the
provision Of the act OF March Ith,
