right for any elector to leave ole
party and join another Whenever lie
sees fit to do so; why should this
disqualfy him from office: The
most remarkable thing about this
new Act is that it contains twenty
sections (Secs. 64-S5 OF Chap. ~
which had previously been held I'M
constitutional as they appeared In
the old election laws. These sec
tions relate to impeachments and
removals from office.
In the case of Bell versus District
Court. 18th Nevada POI. the Supreme
court said: The subject of the Act
in question is elections. its pur-
pose and obje i, the orderly elect
ing of public officials by the Qualif-
ed voters OF the state The trial Of
an officer, after he has been SO
elected. for malfea >ance in office
his removal, and the appointment of
his successor because Of such re-
moval. has no proper Connection
whatever with elections
At the time the Act of 1913 was
passed, all this appeared in the Re
vi-ed Statutes in a note to Section
1923. The unconstitutional sections
oi the election laws had been car
ried into the Criminal Code where
thev belonged
The re-enactment OF these sec
ton, probably would have caused
no trouble other than to have been
probably held unconstitutional again
as contrary to the provisions Of
Article 4. Section II OF the Consti-
tuition which provides that each
law shall embrace but one subject,
and matter properly connected
thercwith which subject shall b"
briefly expressed in the title We're
it not for the fact that the legi>la
turc OF 1913 amended the title nf
the Act as introduced to read; An
Act relating to elections and rcmOv-
als from office" A> introduced the
title read: an Act relating to elec-
tions."
Whether some bright lawyer in
the assembly thought it smooth
way to eventually kill the Act by in
jccting two conflicting subjects into
the title. we do not know, but the
effect OF the legislatures action Is
open to reasonable doubt.
The secretary OF state must have
he election laws printed for distri-
button to the election officials at
the next election; wouldn't it be a
good idea for that official to find
out what the election laws are be
