Oregon Supreme Court January 16, 1899 (Seton v. Hoyt)

Me. Chiee Justice Wolvekton

delivered the opinion.

This is a proceeding by mandamus, the purpose of which is to determine whether the act of October 14, 1898, reducing the legal rate of interest, is operative upon interest-bearing county warrants issued prior to its passage, so as to limit the interest thereon to the present rate from and after said date.
