I concur in the judgment on the sole ground that, by virtue of the Act of the Legislature mentioned in the opinion of Mr. Justice Sawyer, and the issuing of the first fifteen hundred bonds with coupons attached, by the railroad company, payable by the State, a debt against the State was created, which was none the less a debt, and did not cease to be a debt, because provision was made in the Act for its payment—that is, because a tax was levied and an appropriation was made for that purpose; and that the existence of war removed the constitutional restriction against the creation of a debt exceeding three hundred thousand dollars.
