 But, in the case now under con
 sideration the contract Is entire. so that 1t would be difficult, if not impos- sible, to tell what part of the price is { for paving and what part for future
 maintenance. The ordinance treats the entire contract as the paving contract, and provides that the City Council will
 proceed to issue the bonds to pay for
 the same, So far as the assessment is
 concerned, 1t may be true that. if the i benefits should be found to be less than the actual cost, 1t would affect the amount assessed. as the only limit then would be the actual cost, and if that
 had been made more than 1t, should
 have been, that property owner would
 have much more to pay that he was
 liable for. However, this bill Is filed, , not only in the capacity of abutting owners. but also as taxpayers. and, un- der the authorities cited. which we think are supported by sound reason.
