TAYLOR v. CITY OF MIAMI et al.
    Supreme Court of Florida.
    Aug. 3, 1936.
    Charles L. Knowles, of Miami, for appellant.
    J. W. Watson, Jr., of Miami, for ap-pellees.
   PER CURIAM.

This is an appeal from a decree dismissing a bill of complaint seeking to enjoin the issue of $330,000 of water revenue certificates, series B, by the city of Miami, Fla., without an approving vote of the freeholder electors of the city, as required by section 6, article 9, Constitution as amended in 1930; the purpose of the issue being for improvements and additions to the existing waterworks system of the city of Miami.

The water revenue certificates, series B, are to be paid solely from the revenue derived from the operation of the said waterworks system, and not otherwise.

The decree dismissing the bill of complaint should be affirmed upon the authority of State ex rel. v. City of Miami, 113 Fla. 280, 152 So. 6, and other similar cases. See, also, State ex rel. Vero Beach v. MacConnell, No. 1 (Fla.) 169 So. 628; Boykin v. Town of River Junction (Fla.) 169 So. 492; Williams v. Town of Dunnellon (Fla.) 169 So. 631; and Bradley v. City of Homestead (Fla.) 169 So. 639, decided at this term.

Affirmed.
