<p>Constitutional law — Title of statute — Delegation of legislative power— State Live Stock Sanitary Board — Act of July 22,1913, P. L. 928.</p> <p>1. The Act of July 22, 1913, P. L. 928, entitled, “An Act relating to domestic animals,” etc., and defining the powers and duties of the State Live Stock Sanitary Board does not violate sec. 3 of art. 3, of the constitution in having more than one subject in its title, nor is it unconstitutional as conferring legislative powers upon the State Live Stock Sanitary Board.</p> <p>2. An indictment charging a person with unlawfully driving a diseased animal is good under the Act of March 30, 1905, P. L. 78, even if the Act of July 22, 1913, P. L. 928, were unconstitutional.</p>
