Texas Supreme Court July 1, 1872 (Collins v. Tracy)

Evans, P. J.

The question presented in this case, is whether *547a jiinior commission vacates a former appointment to the office of county treasurer.

The Constitution is silent as to the office of county treasurer; but state Constitutions are made with reference to existing laws, which laws are not changed by the Constitution, except so far as they may be inconsistent with its provisions.
