Supreme Court Declaies
Crater l ake Road Appro
priation Unconstitutional
Holding that the act of the last Leg
islative Assembly, appropriating $100,
000 for the construction of a state road
from the Pacific Ocean to the Idaho
boundary via Crater Lake, to be uncon
stitutional, the Supreme Court Tues
day affirmed the judgment in the case
of J. K. Sears against George A. Steel,
as Treasurer, and F. W. Benson, as Sec?
retary, rendered by Judge William Gal
loway, in the Marion County Circuit
Court.
The opinion was written^ by Justice
McBride, and it cites many authorities
compiled from other cases bearing on
the Crate: Lake case. The constitu
tional provision for the laying out of
highways by a special act of the Leg
islature was to prevent the “logrolling”
Legislators passing laws for this spe
cial purpose. Legislative acts up to
the adoption of the constitution are set
out in the opinion which says that “the
practice of logrolling among the fath
ers of the state was not confined entire
ly to that species of employment neces
sary to the clearing up of their farms. ”
Justice King dissented in that to con
sider the act of appropriation unconsti
tutional was far-reaching, on the ground
that it was not of purely local interest
to construct the road, but of entire state
interest.
