John A. Nolan, of Clayton, for relator.
North T. Gentry, Atty. Gen., L. Newton Wylder, of Kansas City, and Lue C. Lozier and Edgar Shook, both of Jefferson City, for respondent.
This is an original proceeding, brought by the county of St. Louis against the state highway commission, for the purpose of having this court issue its peremptory writ of mandamus, requiring the commission, in the construction of what is known as "refund roads" in the county of St. Louis, to follow a route designated by the county court of St. Louis county. The determination involves in particular the construction and interpretation of section 33 of the act of the General Assembly approved on August 4, 1921, as found on pages 164 and 165 of the Laws of 1921 (extra session). The respondent entered its general appearance in the cause, waived the issuance and service of the alternative writ, and filed its demurrer to the relator's petition.
The facts upon which the ruling is sought are set forth in the petition as follows:
