CITY OF BALLARD RESTRAINED.
From Purchasing Part OF the Water
Plant Of the Wet Coast LINN. 90.

From Purchasing Part OF the Water
Plant OF the West Coast Imp. Co.
Trouble over the proposed purchase by
the city of Ballard of a new water plant
occupied Judge Langiey's attention yes
terday afternoon, John Shields one of the
towns taxpayers. appearing before the
court and, through his counsel. asking
that the city officials be restrained from
purchasing the pipe and tools composing
part OF the water plant Of the West
Coast Improvement Company. According
TO the pleadings In the case the city coun-
ell OF Ballard In July last submitted to
the voters the question OF the construc-
ton OF a water system 10 cost In the neigh
borhood OF $4,000 The people OF the town
deemed IL advisable that they should have
their own plant and the proposition car
ried by fair majority Accordingly the
council issued bonds which were sold and
the money is now In the city treasury.
Shields claims that the aity officials are
about 20 purchase from the Improvement
company a portion OF it's plant. and he
alleges that they have no right TO so do.
as to purchase any part OF an existing
system would be to violate the ordinance
passed BY the council. II will be neces-
sary. he claims. to give the city an en-
tire new plant. and the use OF any of
the money for the contemplated purchase
would be an unlawful diversion OF the
funds.
The city authorities admit that they
contemplate the purchase OF a portion OF
the Improvement company's plant. They
say that they are about TO construct an
entire new system Ia accord with the re-
quirements OF the ordinance. The pipe
and tools which they will purchase from
the Improvement company will be wholly
used Ia the new plant and by making the
purchase they obtain material which will
be necessary In the construction of the
plant. and which viii be worth all that

chase Is that by doing 80 the improve
ment company, which furnishes water to

Judge Langley did not hear the case
on It's full merits. but after hearing brief
arguments by the counsel for both sides
continued the case until next Friday. In
the meantime the city officials viii re-
