THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, APRIL 9, 1898. USIC has come to be regarded as a part of Easter Sunday.

The COSTLY ERROR IN THIS BILL Refunding Bonds of Cities and Towns May Be Invalidated. Mistake in a Measure Which Passed California’s Senate. Many Sections of the Statute Rep=aled ‘W hen the Act Eecame a Luw. Epecial Dispatch to The Call. SACRAMENTO, April 8.—A very in- teresting and probably a very serious question has arisen in connection with the passage of what is known as Sen- ate Bill No. 441, introduced in the last eession of the Legislature by Senator Bulla, passed and approved by the Gov- ernor on March 9, 1897. The act pro- vides for the refunding of ind>btedness of incorporated cities and towns by the issuance of bonds therefor, and pro- vides for the payment thereof. general provisions of the act enable any Common Council, Board of Trustees or other governing body of any city or town, other than cities of the first- c , to fund cr refund any indebted- by issuing bonds. After specify- ing certain restrictions and cofiditions the act concludes with the following 4. ‘Chapter eighty-two of the Btat- of eighteen hundred and eighty- , chapter forty-eight of the statutee cighteen hundred and ninety-three, and ¢hapter one hundred and seventy-six of statutes of eighteen hundred and rety-five, all being laws of the State ol m‘ur):’.:t in conflict herewith are hereby This act shall take effect and be immediately after its passage. Herein lies the difficulty. and is the cause of much uneasiness on the part of many cities and towns throughout the State. 1t will be observed that chapter 48 of the statutes of 1893 is repealed, or at least an attempt is m. le to do so. | Now it is very evident from an exam- ination of that statute that such was not the intention of the Legislature. Under chapter 47 are the sections which were intendeu to be nullified. Some mistake was evidently made by some one and the question now arises, What Wil be the effect? If under this act of 1897 the sections of chapter 48 are repealed there is no law by which cities and towns of Cali- fornia containing more than 3000 and less than 10,000 inhabitants can incur an indebtedness for the construction of water works, sewers and all other pub- Jic improvements. If there are cities and towns which have under that sec- tion incurred suc’ an indebtedness the The | | validity of the obligation is certainly questionable. The mistake was discovered in the Secretary of State's office to-day, and | there is no doubt that the discovery will cause great uneasiness in many | communities where public improve- | ments have been contracted for under | the law of 1893 or have been in contem- plation. N Private Secretary Shields of the Gov- ernor's office acknowledged that the matter had not been brought before him until to-day, but he had not as yet made an examination nor had he dis- | cussed it with the Governor. He was | inclined to the belief that Governor Budd had not approved a bill which re- pealed another, not contemplated by the Legislature or sanctioned by him. that he did not believe, | ture could be repealed in a subsequent |act by the mere designation of the chapter. The act of 1897, in attempting to repeal the act of 1893, referred to the latter act by simply designating the chapter. This, in Mr. Shields’ opinion, is not sufficient, as the chapter is not a | division contemplated by the constitu- | tion or a division indicated by the Leg- | istature. The bills, when they reach the Gov- ernor, have been passed by the House | and Senate and signed by the Speaker | and President of the respective bodies. | The word “chapter” does not appear | upon them until they have become laws | by the final approval of the Governor. | As they are signed, the executive sec- retaries designate them by chapters, and in that shape they are bound. They | would be the law of the land just the | same were there no such a designation, land in fact such a division is merely a | matter of convenience and forms no vital requisite to the validity of any statute. This being true, Mr. Shields | claims that no act can be repealed by a mere reference to the chapter. If Mr. Shields is correct there has been no repeal of the law of 1893, neith- er in respect to the issuance of bonds under chapter XLVII nor in respect to the construction of water works and other improvements under chapter XLVIII. But as the first mentioned act is by the construction of statutes repealed by the subsequent conflict, it will no doubt be claimed that the one stands while the other falls. This po- sition may be correct. but it is to be hoped that many statutes repealed in the past have not been disposed of by the mere referencé to the chapter; be- | cause if they have, under Mr. Shields interpretation they are still in force. It is a matter which will no doubt be determined properly, but in the meantime many communities will be disturbed. During this period of un- certainty the question will naturally be asked, Who is to blame? A repre- sentative from the office of the Secre- tary of State and The Call correspond- ent examined the original bill of Mr. Bulla, and found that there had been no mistake in the enrollment. The bill as drawn by Mr. Bulla repealed or at- tempted to repeal chapter XLVIII of | the statutes of 1893, when it should have repealed or attempted to repeal chapter XLVII of the statutes of 1893.

All doctors don't ask it of the druggist. Some do. Others accept it because it is of- fered. Some druggists don't give it; some do. When a doctor asks it, it is blackmail ; when a druggist gives it, it is robbery. You pay the doctor a fee for writing the pre- scription—that's enough. Why should the Druggist ask you To pay it (] The druggist is in business to make money. ~ He gives commis- sions to get business. They must be made up somehow, so he makes you pay it by adding it on to the charge for the prescription. But there is absolutely no sense in your allowing yourself to be robbed that way: Why shquld You pay It @ There is no reason why you should. You can bring the prescription to us and we will fill it accurately and cor- rectly and charge you for the prescrip- tion and nothing else.- _ Commission-giving and commission- taking is direct robbery, and so long as we are in business we shall take no part in it.
