FIGHT FOR MILEAGE
Judge Marioneaux Inaugurates Test
Case On the Repeal of Pro-
vision of the Law of 1901.

\ claim Of Thomas MariOneaux for s416
for mileage while he was serving as
Judge of the Fifth judicial district was
yesterday disallowed by the state board
of examiners. This action was anticf-
pated by Judge Marioneaux, who filed the
claim with the boars for he purpose of
getting a record OF it there so that he
might apply to the supreme court for
writ of mandamus and thus secure a ruI-
ing by the supreme court on the point
involved.
that the law Of 1868, which was designed
90 repeal the law of 1901 providing for
mileage for judges and district attorneys
did not, in tact, repeal the mileage pro-
vision because il was a mere proviso
added 10 the existing Law. which, he
contends, Was not Te-enacted in its en-
tirety as required by the constitution.
Judge MariOneGuX does rot believe that
the ,onstitutionality of the law increas-
ing the salaries of the district judges Will
be brought into the question, although it
was stated yesterday by a member of
the board OF examiners that a ruling
favorable to Judge MariOneauXs claim
would involve a decision that the act in
creasing the judges salaries is not con-
stituti0nai
Further action in the matter promises
30 be of interest, not alone to attorneys
because of the law points involved. but
10 the state because ruling in favor
OF Judge MariOneauXs claim would mean
that the state would have to pay several
thousands of dollars in mileage to for
Iner district judges, and. indeed. 10 the
present judges, II they filed claims.
