Attomey-OeWeral Smith.wnom the Supreme Court yesterday invited to appear lor the people oi the State in tbe suit to test the constitutionality of tbe apportionment acts of U65 aod 18ft, this atternoon filed with the court a motion to dismiss tbe suit. The petition ia based on the allegation that tbe auit is a fictitious one and ia simply an attempt by a nae/e colorable dispute to obtain tbe opinion oi tbe court upon a question of law concerning wbicu there is no real substantial controversy between those appearing as advene parties to tbe suit. Tbe petition then says: On tbg 5th day oi September, 1892, the affidavit and motion lor an a.tentative writ of mandate in tms cause was bled in tbe Circuit Court of Henry county. Indiana.

The piece was no longer dismal and stupid, aud it soon became popular with feporters and visitors. John Euoe Neff wm Secretary of State, and he aud Mr. Uioe were great friends. Mr. Neff had a vein of humor and tiie contact of jffiaee two sjurits brought brightness and good fellowship into those dull precincts. Mr. Kies had an eye quick to see the ridlcbioai aide of things.

Ho claimed to he for (iovernor (iray for the Democratic nomination for the presidency, and wfts apparently so earnest about it that even his best friends could not discern whether lie realiv meant it or whether it was only a whimsical manifestation Of his overpower-

Mr. Rice once related to the writer thgt his first attempt at a pun was attended with unpleasant consequence*. “A good woman in our neighborhood iu New Albany,” said Mt. Rice, "had presented her husband with triplets. 1 was eight year* old at the time and shared the curiosity of

The relator, tor a i long time prior to the commeucement of this I action was a resident voter of said county of ! Henry, and as a member ot said Republican j tarty actively participated in tne several nominating conventions or primaries held in ; that county to select candidates on tbe ReI putdican ticket tor the Legislature of Indiana j under the apportionment laws aforesaid of | 1885 and 1891, and has voted for such candi- | dates at the several elections held in said . county oi Henry since the taking effect oi the

unconstitutional.
As a result oi the omission of defendants to file the answer indicated and of their uuwiilingness aud desire to have the acts of l 86 and 1881 declared unconstitutional a decree has bt. u entered commanding them to proceed unuerthe aw oi 1879. and tbe record in this court on appeal irom that decree is in such shape as to perhaps preclude this court from considering the queMion of the con-

The bills lor lumber, t83. - 25, and for work, $21.50. for the new bridge on Waverly street, were allowed. J. J. Vaidemir petitioned tor a bridge in front of his .actory, as the gas company had refused to lay a service pipe unless it was protected by a bridge. The marshal was instructed to have one built. The request of the Emerson Desk Company for a year’s time iu which to improve the sidewalk alongtheir property was granted. The Terra-Cotta Manufacturing Company alao asked lor an extension ot time until next spring to improve its share of the aidewalk. The company was allowed five months in which to complete the work. H. Joiner formally notified the board that he would pay for his street improvement as per the Barrett law— in twenty semi-nnnual installments. Clerk Kemper was instructed to in.orm Mr. Joiner that hie notice came too late; it should have been made wi.hiu thirty days after the improvement had been made. The propertyowners on Gien drive requested the board to vacate that street from Snade to Rural streets, except a strip twelve leet wide to be reserved lor sewer purposes, tbe board to point out to the property-owners the exact line such sewer will take. Consideration was postponed for two weeks. The petition had eight signers. Another petition was from people in the neighborhood of Hope and Bchool streets, who asked tor relief from stagnant water. This was also laid upon the table for two weeks. The marshal was instructed to cut away the Brinkman-street sidewalk at Morris street so that it would conform with
the grade of the latter street.
HAUGHVILLE TOWN BOARD. « The Haughville town board met last night. The Globe Light aud^ Heat Company, of Chicago, acknowledged receiving a warrant on the town treasurer ior $700 in payment ol the balance due to the company for street lights. A number of small bills were allowed. The marshal was instructed to buy lumber and repair bridges on King and Bismarck avenues. An application was received or a license for a merry-go-round, which a town ordinance provides shall cost $50 per month. A long discussion aro-e as to whether a license oouid legally be granted tor a less period than a month at a proportionate charge. It was finally decided to let the merry-go-’round at $12.50 a week. Trustee White was not present at tbe last meeting and was somewhat surprised at the size of the tat levy the trustees bad put upon tbe town. The special school tax of 18 cents was what Seemed to trouble him most, abd he inquired what had become ol last year’s special fund. It was suggested that a great part oi it had been sunk in lawyers’ lees. The board is getting impatient with the delay in getting ex-Olerk Houker’s obortage back and Clerk Dugan was again instructed to have attorney Mitchell enter legal proceedings at once against Hockers bondsmen and against others whose accounts with the town were short. The cierk was also instructed to have attorney Mitchell return the electric light contract to tbe board’s caie and to ascertain where the city’s electric light* west of

the court is respecttuily called tothe tact that l under the election laws’ of this State nom.nai nous tor offices to be filled at the election on the 8th uav of next month must be made and certified to the several county clerks in this State fitteen days betore the election i§ held. In other words, these nominations must be made aud certified ou or be ore the 25th day of the present month. Should the relator herein at this late day be permitted to prevail in his a sault upon the act of 1891, confusion and perhaps trouble oi the most serious character may ensue. It would therelore seem plain that the law would deny to the relator herein the extreme remedy sought in this proceeding. and a proper answer setting forth these matters oi deieuse should have been considered by that court upon the original trial and
also by this court ou appeal.
The Attorney-General lurther respectfullv suggests to the court that there were elected

Attorney-General Smith in a speech at the corner oI Ray and West streets last night declared that the suit to have set aside islative apportionment few* danger 01 the grav&st kind, things he said: “The people should not be held in doubt as to their rights in this matter, and hence should not be annoyed by political suits such as tbe one appealed from Henry county. I have no words strong enough to condemn this pretended suit. It is fictitious and fraudulent, brought by certain political trickster* who love tbeir own advancement far more thafi they do the good name o. the 8tale of Indiana. The people should turn against them and bitterly rebuke aud smite them. Tbe promoters of this suit are daugerous political partisans, who would for unworthy political motives prostitute the judiciary of the State it, by so doing, they could reap a personal reward. But. because they would prostitute and dishonor the courts for partisan gain—lor the hope ol office- we must not be unfair to the courts in matters of such high importance in advance of a decision on the ouestious involved in this nnworthy and fictitious suit. In a constitutional Government like ours the courts are the bulwark of civil and personal liberty. They stand between tbe people and anarchy— between liberty and oppression—aud should they ever fail 01 tbeir purpose—should they become corrupt or partisan—the door ot constitutional freedom will be closed to all, and the government 01 our fathers, made strong and permanent by the wisdom ot an upright jud.ciary, will be lost in the dark storms of contusion and anbrehv. . Let me oom.ort you with the assurance that we are not ready lor such political chaos. Politicians may and will attempt to overrun the laws of your State for unholy and dishonest purposes, as they are seeking to do in the appbrtionm nt suit. But there is an abiding hope within me—a hope springing from a love ot order and good government— that mai:es me say to you that the supreme judicial power of Indiana is St present vested in judges, though Republican, who will not permit the people of this 8.ate to bo deprived of their rights on the eve of a great political cSmpaign. 1 believe the Supreme Court is holiest, and that it will protect the rights of tbe people against the assault of political bandits Let us not prejudge the court in advance of a decision of ibis great question. Prepare, therefore, to nominate and elect members of the General Assembly under existing laws, regardless bf the obstructions placed in the Way of the administration of justice by political conspirators, and be ready to abide by the law as she courts declare it. This is the plain duty of patriotic citizens Remember that the courts can not afford to be unjust, and, iu my opinion, will not be. Let us aid the courts in the performance of a great duty, and in the end Democracy will wiu a glorious and triumphant victory.
