FRANKFORT, MAY 25.-The Court

of WOolley VS.. the Louisville South

payer of Lexington, sought to estab-
lish the invalidity of the election by
which 100000 worth of stock was
subscribed by the city to aid the road
in building that portion of it from
Lexington to Lawrenceburg. The
act OF May, 1888, directed the submits
sion to the legal voters, and the
Mayor, in his instructions to the
clerks at the polls, told them it was
not necessary that a voter shold pay
his poll tax as required in all city
elections. 1t was shown in the rec
ords that there were 3,1S5 votes cast,
2,3O7 of which were legal in the sense
OF having paid their poll taxes, and
as the petition did not specifically set
out the fact that majority of
these did not vote for the subscrip-
ton, nor show proof of alleged bril-
berry on the part Of those working in
the railroads interest, Judge Ben
nett, who delivered the opinion of
the court, decided the case in favor
of the railroad by affirming the judg-
ment sustaining the demurrer to
