Validity of laws in question in Ohio test case
A Cincinnati Superior Court case centers on the Aikin law raising the Dow tax on saloons from 350 to 1000 dollars. The suit questions validity after Governor Pattison's illness and the ten day deadline for sign or veto, raising issues of lieutenant governor succession and the governor's mental capacity. The case hinges on constitutional interpretation and potential broader impact if other post March 20 acts are invalidated, with the Supreme Court likely to decide on intent and public welfare.
