When one coughs, spits or

MUST PAY ASSESSMENT.
No Avoiding Payment of Automobile Tar
Is Ruling.

Jaekson.-In an opinion to the state
auditor rendered by Assistant Attorney
General Frank Johnston, the opinion is
submitted that owners of automobiles
must pay the tax assessed in the bill
passed at the last session Of the legila-
ture, regardless of som technical fault
dicovered in the bill.
Attorneys for some of the owners had
given notice that the bill would be OPP
posed on the ground that it was improp-
erly worded. The attorney general says
there Is no escape on account of the
grammatical expression. "The title Of
an act and all the provisions of the same
show clearly the intentions of the legis-
lature Notwithstanding the fact that
there was some grammatical i%naccuracy,"
was the way the opinion was expressed.

COURT COMMISSIONERS QUIT
RECENTLY ENACTED STATUTE TO
GOING INTO EFFECT JULY l.
Court Continues Liberalization to Ad-
iouTn for the Summer RecOnsidered.
Whitfield and McLain Retire.

Jackson.-Before the time comes for
the next regular sitting of the supreme
court the order of the Mississippi SUI
preme court commissioners, held by for
mer Congressman Frank A. McLain, will
have passed to the realms of things that
were. 1t was an order established by
the legislature of 1910, with a view to
tightening, if possible, the overburdened
trio of members, and expediting the task
of disposing of as much as possible of the
ever-increasing volume of business before
the court. The system, while it may not
have fulfilled all the expectations of its
creators, was of some material help, but
the legislature of this year decided that
it was useless appendage of the judiciary
department.
Accordingly, the act repeating the SUI
preme court commission act of 1910, after
due deliberation, was passed, and Us
passed it becomes effective on July /. In
reality the commission of Judge Whit.

So far as Judge McLain is concerned,
in effect he has been of the bench for
the past two months or more, having
been incapacitated by q severe organic
illness.
Judge Whitfield has made arrangements
to conduct a law class, which he pro-
pose to start Immediately.
1t was the intention of the court to
take final adjournment for the summer
on this coming Monday, but owing to
the number of important cases to be de-
cided which are still in the consultation
rooms, the probabilities are that their
honors will 20 on a week or fortnight
