the legality of the appointment. start
ing the action on the ground that a
client of his had matters in court per-

of the court be established before its

Justice Morgan, and the syllabus. is
as follows: ~

1907, being an act defining the boun-
daries of the Second, Eighth and

tion 81 of the constitution, requiring
g fiat the subject of the act shall be

which it is stated he asked that the
northwest be given all poss ible assist
