some expressions in the case, of Har

considered by themselves might lead
the reader of the opinion to believe
that a charter could be amended or
enacted by a city council or com
missioners without being submitted!

of the legal voters of said city.- I
do not believe, however, that the in
validity of the chartea of 1914 will
effect these proceedings reviewed,
because the commissioners followed
the charter of 1909 in making the
improvement, as they were required
to do under the provisions of the
charter of 1913. These . proceedings
having been commenced ' before the
adoption of the charter of 1913.
It is claimed however that the char
ter of 1909 and 1913, are both abor
tive and invalid, and that our far
famed commissioner form of gov
ernment "should be relegated to de
suetude" for the reason that under
the constitutional amendment above
quoted, Section 2 Article .11, the leg
al voters have power to enact and
amend charters, but not to re
peal them, and that the attempt to
repeal the charter of 1885 by the
enactment of the charter of 1909 was
ineffective, and that said charter--of
1885 is still in full force and effect,
and as the proceedings for the impro
vement of tourth Street are not
authorized by said charter of 1885,
said proceedings are void. Certain
ly the power to enact a charter
would include implied authority to
repeal a former charter. In the ease
of Branch vs. Alby, 142 Pac. 598, the
supreme court of this state savs:
umi , ...
ine conclusion seems to be lrres
istable that the people by the adop
tion of said amendment intended to
withdraw from the legislative assem
bly all power that it previously pos
sessed to enact, amend or repeal
charters, or acts incorporating cities
and to confer upon -the legal voters
of cities and towns all said powers
except the right to repeal." I
think the learned judge who wrote
the opinion in that case, did not
mean to hold that the legal voters of
of a city had no right to enact an
entirely new charter, and thereby re
peal a former charter, either direct
ly or by implication, but that the
legal voters could not repeal a char
ter so as to leave a city without . any
charter, or commit "Municipal bu
cide," as Judge Burnett expresses
McKeon vs. City of Portland, 61 Ore
gon 385.
Believing as I do that there is no
objection to the proceedings that can
be taken advantage of by means of
a writ of review, the writ will be
dismissed, and the defendants will
recover from the plaintiffs their cost's
and disbursments in this proceeding.
