crumble away in so far as its provi-
sions are now found to be in conflict
with the provisions of this new con-
stitution. The fact that it has not
been changed before doubtless aris-
es from the fact that this law was
30 long obsolete. No action was done
upon 1t. 1t is only for the last 10
or IL years in fact only for the last
ten years and especially in the last
four or five that active frequent re-
course has been had to it's provi-
sions, therefore If your honor please,
we contend that under the statutes
Of 1851 the legislature did limit the
operation of this criminal law to a
class of banks. The legislature has
never given the least evidence of an
intention to broaden out it's provi-
sions and include banks or the SER
wants of banks not included in its
original terms.
