Description
The state, at the relation of Capitol Addition Commission, invokes our original jurisdiction in mandamus to compel James J. Connelly, as state treasurer, to countersign certain debentures authorized under the provisions of chapter 14, Special Session Laws of 1934, being an act entitled, ""An Act Authorizing the Construction of an Addition to the Capitol Building, Providing Funds for the Construction and Equipment of a Building at Santa Fe to be Known as the 'Capitol Addition Building,' imposing an Additional Fee Upon Civil Actions Filed in the District Courts of the State of New Mexico to Provide for the Payment of Interest and Principal Authorizing the Issue and Sale of Debentures to Provide Funds Therefor, and Creating a Building Commission and Vesting Powers in such Commission,"" approved April 27, 1934. The petition in mandamus, after alleging that relator is the duly constituted Capitol Addition Commission composed of J. O. Seth, Herbert B. Gerhart, and Daniel T. Kelly, discloses that funds with which to construct and equip the building contemplated by the act under the terms thereof are to be supplied by a fee of $2.50 levied upon every civil action filed in the office of clerks of the various district courts of the state; but, in order to render such funds immediately available, the relator and respondent are authorized to anticipate proceeds of the levy of such fee ""by the issuance and sale of capitol addition building debentures in such amounts, not exceeding in the aggregate one hundred seventy-five thousand ($175,000) dollars, at such times and bearing interest at such rates, not exceeding four per centum per annum, as the said commission may determine.""
