OPINION ON QUESTION OF
B0NDIMG UNION DISTRICTS.
Text of the Decision of Attorney
General StrattOn in Answer
to Supt. Dickey.

Since brief announcement was made
in the HERALD two weeks ago on the
opinion of Attorney General w. B. STRAIT
ton relative to bonding union school
districts, there have been a number of
inquiries as to the text of such opinion.
In view of the wide spread interest in
this matter and as it affects the building
of the high school at Sunnyside, the
HERALD herewith presents the full text
of the decision. County Superintendent
S. A. Dickey submitted the following
question to State Superintendent r. B.
Bryan, with the request that he secure
from the attorney general an opinion: :
"Can a union high school district law
fully issue bonds for the purpose of
buildings school house." Following is
the answer:
Union high school districts were first
provided for by section 8, 10 and II Of
the School Code of 1897 Session laws
of 1897, pages 359 and $50. The sections
just referred to did not authorize the
board of directors of the union district
to levy special taxes for the purposes of
furnishing school facilities for the union
district, or for the payment of teachers
wages, or for the purchase of fuel, sup
plies, globes, maps, books of reference
or other appliances for teaching, or for
the purpose of furnishing transporta-
ton for pupils to and from school. Sec
ton 10 of the act of 1897 was amended
in 1901, giving the board of directors of
the union district power to levy special
taxes for the purposes just mentioned.
The fact that section 10 was so amended
shows that the legislature did not con-
slider that without a grant of such spec
ial power the board of directors of the
union district had authority to levy such
special taxes.
Section IL of the act of 1897 provided
that "all expenses of such union schools
shall be borne by the districts so united
in proportion to the amount of funds APP
portioned to each district by the county
superintendent and the board of direc-
tors of each district shall issue warrants
for such amount" From the law just
above quoted it is quite evident that the
legislature did not contemplate that the
union district as such could levy taxes
or draw warrants but that those matters
should be left entirely to the districts
forming the union district. No express
authority was given to boards of direc-
tors of union districts by the law of 1897
to issue bonds, and the entire act of 1897

Sunday Law Valid.

The supreme court of the state in a
decision handed down last week declares
the Sunday closing law valid. The de-
cision is rendered on case taken up
from Walla Walla. A man by the name
of Nichols kept open store at College
Place on Sunday. He was arrested and
the superior court discharged the defend
ant on the ground that the Sunday law
was properly applicable only to the
saloons and other places that needed
police surveillance. The supreme court
sustains the law and says it means just
what it says, and merchants as well as
saloon keepers are subject to its provis-
ions. The only lines of business except
ed from the general rule OF Sunday clos
ing are undertaking establishments,
druggists, hotels and restaurants.

indicates that it was not its purpose to
clothe the directors with such power.
section III OF the act of 1897 wps an end.
ed Dy House Bill No. 472 of the laws of
1879 and this section as amended left
out the above quotation from section II d.
Section III of the School Code of 1897,
| which had no reference to union dis
tricts, was amended by chapter III of
the laws of 1901, and the section as
amended granted the boards of directors
OF union schools the power to levy a
special tax upon the taxable property of
the union district not to exceed three
mills on the dollar for the purpose of
paying teachers wages and other pur-
poses, and provided further that the
levying OF such tax by such union school
district board should not prevent the
electors of any district within such union
dlstrict from levying tax of ten mills
as provided in the previous part of the
section. No law has been passed since
the law of 1897 directly authorize ng
union school districts to issue bonds.
From the above consideration Lam led
to the conclusion that it never was the
intention of the legislature to permit
union high school districts to issue bonds
and without authority from the legisla-
ture such districts would have no power
in the premises.
Again, section 6 of article s of the
State Constitution, provides that no
school district shall for any purpose be-
come indebted in any manner to an
amount exceeding one and one-half per
centum of the taxable property in such
school district without the assent OF
three-fifths of the voters therein, ETC.,
nor in cases requiring such assent shall
the total Indebtedness at any time ex-
coed five per centum of the value of the
taxable property therein. Suppose that
union high school district was com.
posed of two other districts and each OF
those districts was indebted to the full
extent of the constitutional five per
centum. If the union district had the
power to issue bonds to the extent Of
five per centum of the taxable property
in the two districts composing the union
district it is a serious question in my
mind whether grant of that power by
the legislature would not be in contra
vention of the constitutional provision
above referred to.

Wanted More Water.

Alfonso Rabbie was arrested last week
on an information sworn out by A. j.
Villamme, both of Mckee, charging him
with maliciously interfering with head
gate in the Selah.Moxee canal. Rabbie
claimed that he does not get the water
he is entitled to and he set about getting
what he needed. The case did not come
to trial, but was compromised.
