power, unless the intention to give
it Is reasonably clear. The men,
ton Of the purposes for which special
taxes may be ASSESSED has the effect,
under another rule Of law, to ex-
elude all purposes not mentioned.
Subdivision l., Section l Article
". of the general municipal law
reads as follows:
Twelfth To provide for the light
ing, sprinkling and cleaning Of the
same the streets.
The City Council IS here given
power to provide for the sprinkling
Of the streets, but, for several reasons,
it would he absurd 10 hold that this
clause confers authority to levy a
special tax fer the purpose. This IS
the only clause in any Territorial
law which specifically mentions
sprinkling Of the streets as wOrl,
which n city council may provide
for having done. There are other
elauses, however, which, in Ian
guage more or less general, confer
power - keep the streets in order,
free frum Instructions, etc, but Il
will not lie claimed that n special
tax Tor street sPrinkling could he
levied under any Of them.
There is not, then, in any Terri
torial law now in force anu appli-
cable to this city, any provision
which directly or explicitly confers
apon cur City Council the power to
levy a special tax to defray the ex-
pense OF sprinkiing the streets.
Hence under the rule Of law that, in
the absence OF specific grant Of It,
the power cannot lawfully Ice exer-
ciscd, We are OF opinion that the
street sprinkling ordinance IS in
valid in so far 81 it provides for a
special tax.
y number Of purposes for which
special taxes may be levied are ex-
pressly setforth in the city charter
aud amendments thereto, among
them being sewers, pavements,
grading, Waterman extensions, etc. /
But in this category street sprink
ling is not mentioned; hence under I
he rule that specific mention ex-
,ludes the thing not mentioned, |
here is additional reason for hold I

ment Of a special tax OF eight cents

whenever the chance was fairly pre-.
scented. Twice within a few months
the CONT has rendered opinions which
demonstrated very clearly the views
OF the judges in regard to the alleged
religion and IFS rights, or want Of

This decision must be regarded as
the most serious blow that Mormon

That bin, il passed, would leave the
