they did, and it was received in
full aequittance of the obliea-
ton.
1t is proper to say that a like
holding on the question of lille
gality of the school bonds WAS
had in the United States Cir
cult Court At Omaha, a short
time before and which was later
affirmed by the United States
Supreme Court at Washington.
Clegg wanted a decision by
our own Supreme Court.
1t will thus be seen that there
was no Reputation by Falls
City, or by any other corpora
ton, of either bonds or debts,
and besides Falls City did not
issue any of those bonds. As
the holders of the precinct court
house bonds never made any eff
fort to enforce them, or to re
cover the money oaid for their
purchase, it is impossible now
to say whether the court would
have allowed a recovery as for
money had and received. There
was already authority in the In
ternal Improvement act of 1869,
for a precinct to issue bonds to
aid in works of internal improve
ments-and our supreme court
has decided that 4 court house
is such a workout it required
a vote of the people, while this
one did not. 1t is not profitable
to speculate as to probabilities.
The bondholders never put the
matter to a test and that, as
one William Shakespeare once
said, is the end of the heart
ache.
1t should be remembered that
a people or a community has its
life precisely like its component
individuals, and that this az
gregate life is as much an ind
%yiduality, as though the whole
mass, great or small, were a
single person, and may be made
the subject of detraction and
unfriendly criticism in the same
way.
In any case, the censor of tie
public morality should be Ger

charges business immortality ON

The Falls City tribune., 1909-05-28

the community and the argu-
ment prevailed. Later. when it
was ascertained that the build
ing was bniIt in a himsy aud un-
substantial manner, some of the
board rebelled, and all were dis
satisfied. Mr.. Robert Clegg, a
member Of the school board. now
deceased, but who is remem-
bered by our people as one of
our most active men Of affairs,
was determined to probe the
whole business to the bottom.
He had become convinced that
the bonds were void, aad that
the school district had been
sWindled in their sale; and be-
sides he didn't like the house
Burbank had built, and he set
on foot 4 scheme of his own to
have an adjustment of matters
between the bondholders and
the school district, on a basis
of equality and fair dealing. TO
that end he purchased one of
the detached coupons from a
school bond and brought suit
on it in the d istrict court
against the school district. 1t
was intended as a test case.
The court held that the coupon
and the bond from which it had
been detached were void for the
reason that the act under which
they were issued conferred cor
pOrate power on the school dis
trict against the express prohi-
bition of the constitution. In
order to have an authoritative
judicial expression on the sub
ject, Mr.. Clegg carried the case
to the Supreme court, where the
Judgment below was affirmed.
That case is reported in Volume
s, Nebraska reports, at page
IFS. The Dundy case against
Richardson county is reported
in the same volume at page sos.
The school board was then in
position to talk to the holders
of the bonds and said to them
substantially this: "The bonds
are legally void, but we don't
want something for nothing, we
are willing to pay you what the
school house is worth" And
