cate says in speaking of this subject;
When ''thr day of Judgment for all these
debtor towns will come. God only knows.
That IT T,U come. sooner or later. Is no less
certain than that violations of natural social
and moral laws and the pcnatie, therefor, are
sure and nseparabc-wh unto death or
not remains to be seen. cur ncighboring
town of Embdcn has been sued on her cou-
pons and il bent on testing the question of Ii
ability. on the plea of illcgalty inspired by
the utter impossibility to carry the load. This
town is in the same boat. and while IRE go for
paving as earnestly rs We opposed the crea-
ton of the debt, We can conceive of Il time
when necessity may force the issue in our
ease a. in the ease of Embdcn. the result Of
whose suit will be watched with much inter
est and anxiety.
