Another Phase OF the, Minnesota Bond Bust
noS3.

Mr.. D. A. Secombe, an attorney Of Minneap-
oils, has obtained a judicial decision upon his
prayer for an injunction to order the governor
to employ the force Of the executive arm to re-
strain the governor from issuing and s .lah
Chamberlain from receiving, the new state
bonds contemplated by the debt adjustment
act of last November: Judge Lochren, in q
decision rendered at Minneapolis, conceded the
right Of Mr.. Secombe as taxpayer to bring
the suit for an injunction; but re-
fused to recognize a cause for action
in the suit itself. The prayer
for an injunction is based upon the alleged IN
constitutionality of the act Of November 4, and
the invalidity of the amendment Of 1858.
Judge Lochren holds the act constitutional and
tho amendment valid under. the supreme
court decision # last September, which de-
clared void the amendment of 1860 The
judge tispoees OF Mr.. Secombe's claim that the
supreme court in passing upon tho act Of
March 2, had no power to adjudicate the valid
ity of the constitutional amendment Of 1860,
and Of the railway bonds, by declining to re-
view the action Of q superior court, except SO
far as to declare his hearty concurrence in the
decision reached by it.
