Supreme Court of Kansas
Deng v. Board of County Commissioners, 77 Kan. 863 (Kan. 1908)
95 P. 592; 1908 Kan. LEXIS 371
Deng v. Board of County Commissioners
Opinion of the Court
This case involves the constitutionality of chapter 368 of the Laws of 1907, entitled βAn act providing for a special tax levy for the construction and equipment of a county high-school building for Scott county, Kansas.β The act is special, and under the authority of the case of Anderson v. Cloud County, ante, p. 721, is held'to-be repugnant to the provisions of section 17 of article 2 of the constitution (Laws 1905, ch. 543), and therefore void, for the reason that a general law could plainly be made applicable.
The judgment is reversed and the cause remanded for further proceedings.
