The full text of the opinion of Chief Justice Mcclellan of the Alabama Su- preme Court in the Montgomery Baby Bond case handed down Tuesday is as follows:
 City Council of Montgomery vs. Ella Moore; appeal from Montgomery City Court.
 Mcclellan, c. J.
 An act of assembly approved Feb~ ruary IS, 1895, (Acts, 1S94-5, ?. 906) has this title: An Act to authorize the City Council of Montgomery to is sue bonds for the purpose of paving or otherwise improving the streets and sidewalks. or either, of the city of Montgomery" Section 2 of the act provides, among other things, that whenever the City Council of Mont gomery shall deem it wise to pave or otherwise improve any street or por- ton thereof, or sidewalk or portion thereof, it shall ascertain the approx innate cost of such proposed paving or Improving. and shall then by ordinance require that said paving or improving shall be done and provide for the issue of bonds of the charac- ter hereinafter described in an amount sufficient to pay the expense of such issue and the costs of such paving or improving" Section 8 provides the terms of said bonds, and provides that "they shall be payable twenty years from their date. but shall be so issued that said City Council may redeem one-twentieth of the principal thereof annually, and 1t shall be the duty of said city to redeem at least one-twen- tieth of each and every issue of said bonds, with all interest due. each year until they are extinguished." Section (. SO far as pertinent here. is as fol- lows: That said City Council shall provide and require, by proper ordi- nance. that the cost of such paving, to- gether with the expense incident to the issue of such bonds. and the inter est thereon shall be assessed against and collected from the owners of the property abutting such paving in such manner that one-twentieth thereof shall be paid each year such assess ment to be prorated according to the frontage of such property and collect ed at the same time and in the same manner as city taxes, and shall be a lien upon such property subordinate only to the State and city taxes to be enforced in like manner as the lien for such city taxes" The case now presented involves the question wheth- CT the foregoing provisions of section of the act are covered by the title of the act. that is, whether these provis- ions for the raising of funds with which to pay the principal and inter est of the bonds which it is the pur- pose of the act as expressed in its title 10 authorize the city to issue are ger mane. cognate and complementary to the purpose so expressed. This in- uuiry must be determined afirmatively. it must be ruled that the provisions re- ferred to are germane cognate and complementary to the subject ex- nressed in the title of this act and are therefore covered by it and properly embodied in the act as constituting in mart the subject so expressed, on tho considerations adverted to and the
