The opinion
Per Curiam.
Appellant’s contention, in essence, is that Section 1, Article I of the Ohio Constitution, is paramount to all other provisions of the Ohio Constitution and precludes the taxation of his real property inasmuch as he lias not consented to such taxation.
*21 However, “[t]he power to tax is an attribute of'Sovereignty and in this state is included in the general legislative power which is conferred by Section 1, Article H of the Constitution, upon the general assembly without. limitation.” Saviors v. Smith (1920), 101 Ohio St. 132 . See, also, Section 2 of Article XII, Ohio Constitution.
This court has long recognized that “[i]t is our duty to give a construction to the constitution as will make.it consistent with itself, and will harmonize and give effect, to all its various provisions.” Hill v. Higdon (1855), 5 Ohio St. 243, 247 .
Taxation of real property being constitutionally authorized, the decision of the Board of Tax Appeals is both reasonable and lawful and is, therefore, affirmed.
Decision affirmed.
