ing order since it is not possible legally
to restrain a legislative body from
making law, but valid injunction
may be secured, if the case merits such
procedure, prohibiting the execution OF
the law and in accordance with their
present contention this is what the
plaintiffs attempt to do as soon as the
council passed an ordinance providing
for the supplement assessment. In
order to prevent this the city will in
terpose a demurrer and have the
case fought out on its merits, in order
that the council may be free to 60
ahead with its action in the matter.
Judge A. J. Derby is representing the
city. The hearings on the demurrer
will probably come before Judge w. l..

Saturday for the purpose Of consider
