ment the protest of the Utah Savings q

nicipal bond issue. The case came up

Attorney Franklin D. Richards appear
Ing for the professionals, while II. j..
Dininny and p. j.. DAILY, city attorney
and assistant city attorney, respective
ly. represented the city. Briefs had been
submitted by counsel on both sides,
The contention of plaintiff was to the
effect that the bond issue was invalid
for two reasons, the first being that
sufficient notice of the special election
had not becnt given and the polling
places had not been designated. Sec
ondly, that there was discrepancy
between the purposes of the bond IS
sue as stated in the published inten7
ton and the ordinance governing the
proposition, the advertisement, stating
that the net revenues Of the water sys-
tenn should constitute a sinking fund
for the payment of bonds and interests.
while the ordinance sets forth that a
tax shall be levied each year to pay
the interest on the bonds and to pro-
vide sinking fund for the redemption
of the bonds within 20 years.
The city attorneys commended that
sufficient notice had been given by pub
LEGATION in daily papers and that the
papers had time after time announced
the election as news items. He eX-
pressed the belief that there was no
conflict in the minds of voters as to
how the bonds should be redeemed.
