SYSTEM
MAY GET COURT AIRING

Pierre, S. D.. Nov. Legislative

right of the tax commission to change

Is a case pending or the Il to 500"
liquor law, on the contention that the
law was juggled. Now there IL a
rumor Of an attack on the practice
OF pushing through special appropria-
tons In the general appropriation bill.
which is manifestly unconstitutional.
The constitution says that the gen
eral appropriation bill shall embrace
nothing but appropriations for ordi-
nary expenses of the executive. legis-
lative and judicial departments Of the
state, the current expenses Of state
institutions, interest on the public
debt and for common schools. All other
appropriations shall be made by sep
arate bills. each embracing but one
object, and shall require a two-thirds
vote OF all the members Of each
branch Of the legislature"
Under a strict court application OF
this rule there is no question that
some Of h legislative appropriations
would be invalidated. By working
special appropriation measures into
the omnibus bill they are often ar
ried through, where they would be
knocked galley west If put on pass

required by the constitution.
