Statutes Will be construed with a
view 10 ascertain the intent OF the
law-making power. and 20 give force
n meaning 10 the language uscd.
The act creating Franklin county,
In part provided:
'That OF the outstanding bonded
Indebtedness Of the original county
before division. Franklin county
shall assume thirty thousand dol
lars OF the principal thereof etc"
SO II we shall consider these sta
tutes as one and the same act.
for the purpose OF ascertatning
the Legislative intent. the fixed
bonded indebtedness OF the original
Oneida county which was assumed
by Franklin county was determined
not only upon the basis OF that
proportion which was chargeable 70
the territory 10Y included within
the counties OF Oneida and Frank
lin but also upon that portion OF
the original Oneida county which
Ia now embraced within the county
OF Power.
The legislature. therefore. could
not have intended otherwise thar
that the territory which was seq
regated and organized as Power
county should obtain It's fair pro
portion OF the benefits resaltlnt
from the assumption by Franklin
county OF $40 100000 OF the bonded
indebtedness OF what originally wal
Oneida county.
Therefore. / hold with the APP
praiser OF Power county. that the
proportion OF the bonded Indebted
ness OF Oneida county 10 be padd
BY Power county shall be deter
mined by first deducting from the
entire bonded Indebtedness o.
Oneida county as " originally wa
the s3O, 100000 OF the said bonded II
~debtedneas which was assumed by
Franklin county.
