Unconstitutional.
Tha Astoria relief bill, to pro
vide for the purchase of 1250,

ror Pierce yesterday., . v , s ;
In explanation of his - veto,
Governor 1 Pierce stated that he
was v extremely anxious to see
some measure of relief afforded
the stricken city but was forced
to veto it because ; of its doubt
ful ; constitutionality,; the- ques
tionable legality of bonds Issued
under its provisions, the faet
that it would require an appro
priation of 1250,000 from , the
general fund to make the pur
chase of the bonds with' a conse
quent additional ; tax levyti and
the fact that the deficit in the
general fund - now amounting to
$300,000 would be fncreasedTtQ
$550,000. " ! :-f
