He further stated that the protest was
not a mute protest where over three
million dollars we're held by people all
over the world IL was no small case.
In which IL was to be seen IL the Ter
ritory would run on American princi.
pies, or be run by set Of politicians.
The Territory in its legislation on this
subject had been in advance Of other
communities. II an act was passed and
1t was assailed on the ground of un.
constitutionality 1t was best for all to
have 1t determined as soon as posi-
bic. The case affected $500 taxpayers
and the bondholders, for whom o
speedy decision was important, in order
that they might be relieved from the
uncertainty.
The County Act had deprived the
High Sheriff of all his duties still an.
other section stated that the word sher.
in should mean high sheriff. On page
G35 Of the Revised Laws 1t was shown
the courts OF record could decide the
constitutionality and binding effect OF
laws and regulations. This showed the
Jurisdiction Of the court in the case
submitted. The Revised Laws also In
other places indicated the jurisdiction
Of the court In the case as II had beer
presented Further authorities on this
subject were quoted.
In this connection Highton said that
lie saw nothing which prevented the
Attorney General to appear against 9
law. There was nothing obliging the
Attorney General TO support an uncon
90 stttt act In mr. a
have the constitutionality of an ac'
tested.
Deputy Attorney General Prose-,
stated that this argument seemed 4
rest on the assumption that the AT
torney General thought the act un
constitutional, which was probably no
correct.
Highton went on to speak of tn
J title of the act. He said IL the OF
ganization created by the act we're no
counties. as named In the title, tn
act itself was unauthorized, rs the it'll
of an act must express its subject o.
this point Highton quoted opinions
II IL was found that the title did no
point to the contents Of the act II wa
void The County Act uncreated
number of things. II changed masse
: of the functions Of Territorial officers
II wiped out many sections on the sui
ject Of the Public Works Department
the street system, etc, etc. The Al
torney General was also deprived o
functions which were vital to the exc
cution of his office.
At this point the noon hour was al
rived. Hlghton asked that further al
gument be continued until Monda
morning as he was much in need Of
rest. The matter was accordingly cor
tinued until Monday at 10 a. m.

1904. The latter item was thought to
be insufficient, and as II would be OF
some assistance to the steamship COM
panies, the contractor appealed to them
for help, with probably some kind Of
an understanding that the matter
would be presented to the Legislature.
During September, 1903, the then Su.
perintendent OF Public Works, being
of the opinion that the Legislature was
limited in it's power to the passage Of
biennial appropriations, authorized the
steamship company to undertake the
erection of the derrick landing at Pc
lekunu. However, the Supreme Court
decided the Legislature had acted with.
In its powers, and that the two appro-
priation bills could only be expended
as had been provided. Thus the Audi.
tor refused those items in connection
with the derrick landing that had been
incurred prior to January |, 1904. Ow-
Ing to this Misunderstanding. IL might
be proper for this Legislature to make
provision for the payment of these

tors. A Territorial Legislature exer.
cised no sovereign qualities; 1t could
go only as far as Congress permitted.
It must show its authority for its &C.
tons in the Organic Act.
Highton went on to say that II might
very well be that the Legislature In
passing the Act thought 1t was invest.
ed with the sovereign powers of State
Legislatures and that that was why
II conflicted in so many places with
the Organic Act.
Highton went on TO quote authori,
ties on the matter, in one of which a
Territorial Legislature was alluded Ia
us a creature of Congress. etc.
The Legislation of the Territory and
Acts of the Territory in the line OF
public loans had been very distinct
The Legislature might deal In an or
binary way with the REVENUES of the
Territory. but It had no right TO divide
the consolidated revenues In two parts

II did that It imperiled the bondhold
Grs of the Territory, to whom II was
virtually bound under contract. Au
thorities to support this point were
quoted.
The plaintiff would further show
that Castle had a specific interest In
the revenues as a bondholder. The
sale of bonds had been advertised
with the provision that the consolidat
cd revenues of the Territory were held
charged for the bond. This was part
OF the contract between the Territory
and the bondholders. Now Act 90 d.
vided the Territorial consolidated rev
enues in two and deprived the bond
holders OF the benefit of one-half OF
the revenues. Without Act SO the
County Act would he inert. It vitaliz'
ed the County Act, which had failed
to make the taxpayers pay for the
County government. The Legislature
lad no power to violate the obligations

Judge Hartwell said that II did not

Highton said that County govern

that the moneys given the Counties

The fiftyAper cent. given the countie:

Hartwell said he did not see how
