The motion to remand must be granted. Repeal by implication must result, where no other intent can be inferred which will harmonize with the prior statute. In this case jurisdiction is given the state courts by Act April 5, 1910, c. 143, 36 Stat. 291, amending Act April 22, 1908, c. 149, 35 Stat. 65. By the amendment of April 5, 1910, original jurisdiction is given to the Circuit Courts of more districts than under prior existing law, and removal of all suits under this law to the United'States court — i. e., “the court of the proper district” — -is prohibited.
This is plain language and must be respected. Sections 1 and 2, c. 137, Act March 3, 1875, are modified or limited thereby.
