The Injunction that Messrs. Shreve ana
Sedgwick had served on Council 10 Keep
them from contracting for the erection OF
an electric light plant was yesterday dis
solved by Judge briggs OF the Common
Pleas Court. The question was as 10 Who
had a right to select the system, whether
the Board of Trustees were TO take charge
before the plant was erected or were they
to have full control after the plant was
contracted for. by the City Council. Inc
Council claimed that it was their place 10
contract for the plant and had gone as lar
as to receive bids, but on the evening the
bids were TO be opened they were served
with this Injunction, which causnd every,
thing to come to a standstill. The Board
of Trustees, who are Messrs. George
Spencer, George Smith and Madl,
son Aldridge, were not mentioned
as the plaintiffs in this injunction, but
great many o. our people think that the
Board were at the bottom or 1t. how
true this is we are unable TO say, but II III
were true, it would DC very apt TO lnlure
Mr. Aldridge'S chances considerably IN MS
canvass this fall for the office OF County
Auditor, for our people have been suHer-
ing on account Of having no light, Wnlcn
they would have had by this time II 1t had
not of been for this injunction. Inc
reason that they think the trustees were
at the bottom OF it was that the parties en-
Joining Council did not say that tue Coun-
Gil were not competent or would aouse tue
right, but because they wanted the trus,
tees to build the plant. 1t is to be hoped
that the work can now be commenced, SO
that we can yet have light before the
winter is over.
