THE CITY ANSWERS.
The City Makes Reply TO ]. n. Grit
fms Complaint.

An answer and demurrer was yester-
day filed by the city attorney in the
case of J. H. Griffin VS.. Salt Lake City
in which Griffin prayed for an injun-
elton TO prevent the city council from
letting the contract for extra sprinkling
TO anyone besides himself.
The answer denies that it was the
intent of either party to the contract
TO award the plaintiff The work of
sprinkling such other streets as the
city council might determine should be
sprinkled during any part of The life
of the contract and alleses that by the
contract the defendant reserved to
itself the sole and exclusive right to
determine to whom and at what price
IL should let a contract for any extra
sprinkling it might require. 1t is then
specifically denied that under the con-
tract the plaintiff was entitled to per-
form any extra sprinkling at the rate
or S2-45 per week per block or any
other sum.
1t is also denied that the following
clause was inserted in the~contract by
inadvertance or by mistake:
1t IS further mutually agreed by the
parties hereto that if at any time dur
ing the life of this agreement. said
first party shall request ii, said second
party shall sprinkle. any other streets
embraced within the sprinkling dis
trict aforesaid at the stipulated price
of $2.45 per week per block" and it is
denied that the following was what
was intended to be inserted:
IT is further mutually agreed by
and between the parties thereto that
if at any time during the life of this
agreement the first party shall deter
mine TO have sprinkled any other
streets within the limits of said CITY
ard not embraced within the sprinkling
districts aforesaid, the said second
party shall do such extra sprinkling at
the stipulated price of S2.45 per block"
All the material allegations of the
complaint are denied and in short il
Is set up that any negotiations which
were entered into by the parties prior
to the making of the contract were
merged in the contract and that in
junction is not the proper remedy. as
the plaintiff if he has a grievance, has
his remedy by an action at law.
In the demurrer it is set UP that the
court has no jurisdiction that there is
a defect of the parties in that the CITY
council and mayor are not made par
ties TO the action. and that the com
plant does not state facts sufficient
10 constitute a cause of action.
