County Attorney H. H. Brooks re.
cciyed this morning from Attorney Gen
eral Fletcher an official opinion in an.
swer to a recent inquiry regarding tn.
relief of w. r. Showers, county convict
contractor. The Attorney Genera
holds that the recent act Of the legisla.
tme authorizing the board of supelvis
ors to relieve sale Showers and his bonds
men from liability was a violation OF
Sec. 100 Of the Constitution. The opin-
ion concludes: "These consideration.
force me to the conclusion that the uci
Of Feb lst, 1908, above quoted, is un
constitutional, and confers no autfori.
ty upon the board of supervisors tC
Grant any sort of relief. Should the
board abandon the suit now pending
and attempt to release the liability

men would be answerable to the reve
