IN an able, elaborate and exhaus-
tive opinion handed down Tuesday
Judge 3earden sustained
the constitutionality Of the Maury
county turnpike law. The demurrer
Of the defendant county to the bill
OF Horace Rainey, attacking the law,
was sustained and the bill dismissed.
The act in question was passed at
the first extra session Of the 1913
general assembly and vested in the
county road board the duties hereto

ment, working, repairing and control
Of the pixies Of the county. s
The law was recently attacked
upon many and varied grounds in a
bill filed by Horace Rainey, the prin-
cipal owner of the turnpikes of the
county. It was. among other things,
alleged that the law was vicious class

Discussing the question Of class or.
special legislation the court express
ed the opinion that the enactment of
this species of legislation under the
guise Of a population classification
was inherently wrong and vicious and
was not originally intended by the
trainers Of the organic law; that how
ever, was merely the personal opin-
ion of the court; that the supreme
court had held otherwise and uni
formlyr, upheld such legislation and
that for that reason this court must
bow to the will Of the higher court
and hold the law valid. Personally
the court did mot agree that the pop
ulation classification method Of evad-
ing the mandate Of the organic law
was. right, but this court must con
strne the law In the light Of the de-
cisions Of the appellate court Of the
state. and SO Interpreting the statute
at issue, the court could find nothing
so vicious as to render 1t invalid. It
was not, under the decisions Of the
supreme court class legislation In
the meaning Of the constitution.
The court overruled all Of the 9th
|er objections. He stated that he did
met think that the law was arbitra
Try or that it failed to give that re
lief to the turnpike owners guaran
teed under the laws Of the land. II
An appeal to the supreme court viii
be taken from the decision Of the
lcourt Of equity.

Department Street Cleaning, City:
Dear Sir---I want to thank you and
the officers and men of your depart
ment for so capably and enthusiast
cally cooperating in the cleanup pc
riod for fire prevention this week, and
to congratulate you upon the results
attained.
Owing TO the fact that much COM
hustibIe matter had to be carried TO
the dumps, which actually increases
the fire hazard of the localities near
the dumps, I beg to suggest that you
detail one or two men to each dump
to rake up and burn all such matter
and thereby remove 1t both as fire
hazard and a menace TO the cleanll.
ness of the streets leading to the
dumps. Very truly yours,

TO BUILD GIANT
DOCK AT FRISCO

Washington, Nov 3,--Contract has
been made by the Navy Department
with the UnieD Iron Works of San
Francisco for a giant drydock, capable
Of accomplishing any vessel which
can get through the locks Of the
Panama Canal.
The navy guarantees that it will pay
the owners Of the dock at least $780,
600 a year for six years for the ac-
commodation of battleshfps or other
naval vessels at this dock The navy
is to pay a fixed charge per ton for
vessels accommodated in the dock, but
in case these charges for a year do not
amount to $50, 600 the navy will pay
that sum. If the navy uses the dock
to a cost Of more than $4,000 year
it will pay the total amount. Con-
struction of the dock is to begin soon.
and it is expected that the dock will
he ready for use in from eighteen
months to two years, The making OF
such a contract has for years been
recommended to Congress by the Navy
Department. because there is not
enough water in the channel leading To
the navy yard at Mare Island to get
the largest battleships to that yard.
