Panel
Frederick W. Henshaw (author), delivered the opinion of the court

Analysis

No analysis yet. When one exists it is a model's reading of this opinion — the rulings it reviewed, whether it agrees with the court, and the authorities it checked — shown beside the court's own disposition, never in place of it. How analyses are made.

Opinion

If those are your two propositions, I speak for the Court in saying that where there is no specific requirement of the law declaring that money of a particular form or kind shall be designated, it is a good bond and it is in full compliance with the law, when it calls for "lawful money of the United States."

And, second, it is clearly a power vested with the supervisors, after election, to determine whether the interest shall be paid semi-annually or annually. If those are your two propositions, they are resolved in favor of petitioner, and mandate will issue accordingly.
