Excerpt from In the Superior Court of the City and County of San Francisco, Department No. 5: In the Matter of Isaac S. Kalloch, Mayor of the City and County of San Francisco, Argument of W. H. L. BarnesI do not make the concession. I ask for the statute no liberal construction. I do not petition the Court to legislate, as was intimated this morning, nor to g1ve to the statute any other or different meaning than the closest legal judgment can give it. The statute, in my judgment and I so press it on your Honors, is sufficiently broad and ample to include within its terms every single one of the charges presented in this petition, and without undertaking to criticise in detail their argument, I think my learned friends have nar rowed the scope of the act by their construction, and to] an extent to which I think this Court will not g1ve_1ts adherence.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
