DOUGLAS COUNTY RAILROAD
BONDS.

The much veXed question Of fur
ther action in regard to bonds issued
by this county to the Superior and
St. Croix Railroad Company, being
brought before the County Board of
Supervisors at It's annual meeting, on
a demand to levy $4,000 of special
tax, to meet the interest coupons due
February and August 1874, on the
$75,O 900 Of bonds given to the con
tractors, pursuant to the agreement
made between them and the Supe-
rior and St. Croix and Northern
Pacific Railroad Companies and the
County Board last summer), by or
der Of the Board Of Supervisors,
copies of all the papers and pro
ceedings of the Board were sent to
Counsel and an opinion asked.
Upon the receipt Of the opinion.
the Board concluded not t. make
the levy, as we stated last week; and
as considerable interest has been
taken and inquiry made for the
fpoints" i'll the opinion, we have
endeavored TO collate them, rather
than give the letters III full:
That the terms and conditions
upon which the electors voted the
bonds not having been complied
with, by the completion of the road
by July lSt 1878, the company nor
til contractors had a right to de
mand from the County the payment
Of It's bonds
That the Board Of Supervisors
had no power 10 change the contract
with the Railroad Company, 50 as
to dispense with any Of the terms Of
conditions upon which aid had been
granted-that if they had possessed
any authority ofthat kind under tie
general law, it was taken away by
the special Act of last winter, pro
viding for settlement that should
be ratified by the people.
That it seems idle TO submit to
the voters The question of granting
aid upon conditions, if the condi
tions may afterwards be disregard
ed. If they could change any one
of the essential clements of the con
tract to which the voters had given
their assent. why could they moi
change them all at their pleasure?
That if the County must pay u
its stock, it has right to insist thai
the contractors who hold its bond:
shall DO the same thing
