“Whatever the cause of the failure to give
appropriate public notice of the change in
the sections, with the result that the persons
affected, the prosecuting authorities, and the
courts, were alike ignorant of the alteration,
the fact is that the attack in this respect was
upon a provision which did not exist.”
