Goose Creek Water.

The Courts have decided that the Charleston
contract for goose water is unconstitutional
and the city authorities are restrained from
going on with the contract for that kind oi
water. There were two objections to the con
tract: One was, that Goose Creek water was
not desirable for the good people Of the city
The Court, however, took very little notice
OF this fact The decision was based on the
fact that Charleston's bonded Indebtedness
was already eight per cent. OF the constitu.
tional limit. The contract to pay $4,000 for
fifty years was violative Of that section OF the
organic law. Only debt for current expenses
during the fiscal year could exceed eight per
cent.
Charleston could have supplied any reason
able demand for Goose Creek water, If the
contract had been allowed to stand.
