"It Is argued that everything Uiat has been done must bo considered as having affected only the general fund and that tho brldgo fund Is Intact: but I am unable to see how wo can say that when tho money Is spent and gone, wo still havo It lu hand nud can use. Nor do I know any procens whereby we can transfer (moneys from tho general fund to the road fund to make up for such deficit. Right of the County "As to the branch of thu cane, tho right of the county to build a bridge In Medford, I havo not gone Into extensively, as It Is not necessary to a determination of tho ctisn nn 'I seo It. Hut It would seem tn me that a special law, Imposing upon n county the duty of building nud maintaining a bridge, would fall with in the provision of Art. IV, Sec. 23. It has been often held that this Con stitutional limitation did not apply to cities, because the control of rouds and streets within tho city Is part of municipal functions, and permitted by Art XI, Sec. 2 before It was amended. Hnl while that would nn doubt bo true ns affecting tho city, It would soem that It would not bo true, when an attempt was mudn to throw it burden on tho county by a special onactmnnt. I havo reached tho conclusion that the county cannot carry nut the con tract for tho brldgo without In curring additional Indebtedness, and should ho restrained from attempting to do so. P. M.
