delivered the opinion of the court.

The learned counsel for relator have made a very ingenious argument, but one that cannot be maintained. The contention was perfectly covered by the reasoning in the case of Yazoo City v. Ligthcap, 82 Miss., 149 (s.c., 33 South. Rep., 949), which demonstrates the constitutionality of the amendment of the charter of the city of Vicksburg, made on 17 th day of February, 1904, in accordance with Code 1892, § 3039.

Affirmed.
