Opinion of the Court
held, that even if mandamus can be resorted to at all for such "’a purpose, the application should come from the proper public officer, which in this court is the attorney general; and that the relator had not made such, a showing of special interest in the matter as authorized him to petition in his own behalf, or of efforts to procure the proper public officer to proceed, such as would authorize him to intervene in behalf of the public.
Writ denied.
