THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: WEDNESDAY AUGUST 12, 1903 FILES BRIEF [N RYAN CASE Deputy Attorney General Argues in Favor of Amendment's Validity. CONTRACT FOR COURT REPORTS IS LET Rrror tn Printed Copy of Wife Deser- flon Law is Discovered Which Materially Changes Its Import. (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Aug. Attorney General Brown today filed & brief in the Ryan injunction case, which calls into question the walidity of the consti- tutional amendment of 18 increasing ihe pay of legislators and the length of the legislative mession. The principal conten- tion of Mr. Ryan, fn the court below, was that the act provjding for a recount of the ballots, a the legislature had once declared the amendment lost, was special legislation of guch character that it comes under the ban of the constitution aimed at such laws. Mr. Brown contends that it was not legislation of such character, but on the contrary that it was an act where & general law could not be passed, since it applied to a single ocoasion. The pro- vislon of the constitution forbigding spe- cial legisiation, he claims, is aimed at cases where the need for the law is a con- tinuing one. Then, too, he asserts that the lawmakers are restrmined by the con- | stitution and that it is not a grant of powers 1o which they are limited in their activities. Since there is no inhfbition in the ocon- stitution against legislation of the charac- ter compiained ©of, he contends that the law enscted was valid, as an exercise of the plenary power lodged In the legisia- ture. The mct was not extraordinary in its scope either, he says, because the legis- Jature was acting as u board of review where there was a Question analogous to that involved in a contest between two candidates for an office. Mr. Brown's principel point is that under the rule of contemporansous construction the adoption of the amendment by sll the officlal organs of the commonwealth makes the amendment a part of the organic law. He cites cases to show that the action of & state department under the amendment and then the long acquiescence therein of other departments of the state government and the judiclary ought to be conclustve as 1o the validity of the amendment. The objection stated, in other words, is that the Jong use of a comstitution by the people must constitute an irrevocable adop- tion thereof, and the sixt ment in question as & constituent part of the organie law, are ample to make the adoption as & part of the state constitu- tion valid, even though thers may have been some frregularity in its adoption. As sustaining this contention, the case of Brit- tle aguinst People, second Nebraska re- port, 18, is cited. In that case the court held that the guestion of & constitution held that the guestion of the regularity of the adoptidn of a constitution afthr it goes into effect is a political question rather than ‘a Judicial question for the courts. In case the part of the constitution ob- 10 had been in force less than seven and, although there was evidenoe of Arregularities, the ocourt held that it was o attack it it 11— (8pecial.Deputy Mittee on judiclary urged that they | torney gemeral, who hoids that the clerk had the right to go ahesd Independent of the printing board. The statute says that the reporter's duty i to prepare the opin- |tons of the court for publication as fast s they are deilvered 1o aim, and when sufficient material has accwmulated to form & volume of not less than %00 pages he shall | cause the same to be printed. | Mr. Herdman made requisition on the bourd last January, but his request wus turned down. While the new volumes will not be precedents, except as to the conclu- sions reached in each case, they have been ked for by many members of the legal fraternity throughout the state and the action of the supreme court in ordering them printed was taken in response to that demand. The members of the senate com- be printed also. They took the ground that if the court was not going o have them printed they would make a special appro- priation for the purpose and pass a special bill authorizing thelr publication. Mistake in Statutes. A typographical error in both the session laws and the statutes has misled o number of lawyers. It occurs in the law making wife desertion & crime. According to both these books, which have both just come from the press, there is mno limit to the penalty which a judge might\ impose for wife desertion. The statute reads, where the penaity is touched upon, “for more than one year.” The discoverer of the section reached the conclusion that the lawmakers had neglected to amend the etatute limit- ing the penalty to one year or less in jafl It turns out. however, that the statute and the mession lawe, which have just been issued by the publishers, are in error Clerk Roberts of the office of the secretary | of state saw the published account of the long term which might awart future wife deserters and stralghtway, according to his custom, went after the ewrofled and en- | grossed bill. He discoversd that the bill, |known as HL. R 2%, was amended so as to read in the pemalty clause, “ not more than one year" The defect in the printed |1awe is @ue to some oversight on the part ©of the persons who prepared the copy, it is believed. The original bills control the printed statutes, so that the error of the printer will not make it possible for a judge to mentence & wife deserter for a term of years, as some thought 1t weuld Smith Family in Pork B After o lapse of more than five years | Grant Smith i= to be brought back from North Dakota to Burt county to answer a | charge of hog stealing. Requisttion was 18- sucd from the governor's office this morn- ing calling upon the govermor of North Dakota to allow him to be brought into Nebraska. Smith is charged with having | stolen three hogs worth $60 from a neigh- boring farmer. The crime is located in April, 188, and it appears that he fled the country immediately thereafter, so that all trace of him was lost untll Sheriff Lusk of Burt county recetved recently a telegram from Stuteman county, N. D., advising him that Bmith was there under arrest It 18 as & fugitive from justice that Smith will be brought to Nebraska, as the statute of lmitation s sald to have run against his orime of theft. The fact that a war- rant was issued for his arrest in the June following his dissppearance brands him as a fugitive from justice. It was stated at the executive office today that a fugitive from justice cannot clatm the protection of the statute of limitations, although it may avall Smith to plead it when he shall be confronted with the charge of theft. ‘William Barmes’ Mother-in-Law. Mrs. Christina Gray, the Seward woman who eloped some time ago with her daugh- ter's husband, and who was arrested with her alleged paramour, has gained the tavor of the county nttorney and has been released from custody on mcoount of the charge brought against the pair for the maintenance of unlawful relations. It is understood that she has confessed to the authorities enough to convict her son-in-law of a serious crime when she tells her tale in court. Meantime the son-in-law, William Barnes, has been bound over to the district court in the sum of $306, and i in the county Jail Mre. ay. although the mother of her paramour's wife, is but 3 years old hav- ing married. so she claima, very young Her husband s an elderly man, concerning whose mornl habits she speaks in most @Gisparaging terms.
