have been expressed One maintains that
the power to establish post offices and
post roads can intend no more than the
power to direct where post offices shall
be kept and on what roads the mails
shall be carried. Or, as it has been on
other occasions expressed. the power to
establish post roads is power 10 desig-
nate or point out what roads shall De
mail roads, and the right OF passage or
way along them when so designated.
1.-The other maintains that, although
those modes of exercising the power are
perfectly constitutional, yet they are not
the whole of the power and do not ex-
haust it. On the contrary, the power
comprehends the right to make or con-
deem proper for the conveyance OF the
mail and to keep them in due repair Tor
such purpose.
There appears to be only one instance
in which this much-mooted question
reached the courts and received judicial
Interpretation. This was the case OF
Dickey agt. the Turnpike Road Company.
wherein the Kentucky court of appeals
decided that the power given TO
Congress by the Constitution 70
make, repair. keep open and improve
post roads when they should deem The
exercise Of the power expedient. In
commenting on this celebrated case.
Chancellor Kent concludes with this SEN
tenSe: This important decision was well
supported by sound reasoning.
ITO contend that this article confers
on Congress. the power only to designate
or point out some road over which the
mails shall be carried Is hardly con-
sistent with the powers it exercises in
other cases From the same clause the
words to establish post offices have
apparently been assumed by Congress
to give it the power to purchase build
ings, or to purchase land and erect
thereon structures to be used as post
offices. From it's express power to lay
and collect taxes. duties. etc, ii erects
