delivered tbe opinion of tbe court:
Tbe defendant in error challenges tbe right of plaintiff in error 'to tbe relief sought, upon tbe grounds:
1. That tbe interests acquired by plaintiff in error by virtue of its contract of purchase were taxable under former and existing statutes, and that tbe amendment of 1889 was in contravention of section 3, article 10, of tbe constitution, and especially of section 6, article 10, in that it attempted to exempt from taxation property other than therein mentioned and was therefore unconstitutional and void and could not establish a contract.
