Syllabus

<p>SYLLABUS BY THE COURT.</p> <p>1. Constitutional Law — Special School-district Act of 1901. The act entitled “An act to dissolve school districts numbered 4, 35, and 108, Eeno county, Kansas, and attach the same to school district No. 139, Eeno county, Kansas, for the purpose of forming a graded school” (Laws 1901, ch. 339), does not violate the constitutional provision against a plurality of subjects, or the one prohibiting the passage of special laws where a general law can be made applicable.</p> <p>2. - Broad Title will not Invalidate an Act. If an act contains only a single subject and that is clearly expressed in the title, the constitutional mandate is satisfied, and the mere fact that the title may be broader than the act itself will not defeat its validity.</p>
