Well, the deficits are there, just
the same. Yet what are we doing?
Spending more! Of course the legis
lators don’t get the money; of course
they are aske^, nay verily hounded
to death, for more and more appro
priations, but what man was ever
able to buy all that his children
want?
Hard-headed, successful, patriotic
men, once seated in the legislature,
seem to lose the sagacity which'has
made them successful in their pHvate
business. They can resist every agent,
every automobile salesman, all the
matter. Interest, indeed! Any citizen
has the ri^t to Invoke the aid of
the coinrti when an act of the general
assembly violates a amstituticmal
provision. If not, then where are we?
In the matter before us the g&ir
eral assembly directed that hi^way
fimds be used for ordinary purposes.
Many thought such an act unconsti-
tutionaL And the supreme court so
ruled, when the issue ‘was presented
to the coiut. In such a case who
should make the test before the
court? A citizen, a taxpajrer, or a
bond-holder, but not the highway
department. As a matter of fact, the
hi^way department did not bring
the suii for, aa I^ said, a state de-
parment can’t challenge the legisla
ture in court. The challenge was
made by citizens. ’This is no claim
against the state and the state can
not lawfully pay any such bill.
Another objectioh — and a serious
one — is that the general appropri
ation bill is a bill to provide for the
operation of the public services. It is
no place for private bills or individ
ual payments.
I opposed, and still oppose, the di
