Syllabus

<p>Compensation of Supervisors as Road Commissioners—Repeal of Code Provision—County Government Act—Constitutionality—Mandamus.—Section 2641 of the Political Code, regulating the compensation of supervisors as ex officio road commissioners, as amended March 9, 1893, was repealed by those provisions of the County Government Act, passed March 24, 1893, which were inconsistent therewith, and to which there is no valid constitutional objection; and mandamus will not lie to compel the issuance of a warrant based upon that section of the Political Code, regardless of whether such compensation is now governed by section 195 of the County Government Act of 1893, or by section 191 of the County Government Act of 1897, to which constitutional objections are urged, which are not passed upon.</p>
