Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 9 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The word `district' here plainly means something different from a county; otherwise the word would be useless. In the case of In re Eldred , 46 Wis. 530 , it was said that both words must be held to have a meaning and a use. If there may be a district with different boundaries from those of a county, why may not such district be smaller than a county, as well as larger? We see no good reason.”
