COUNTY COMMISSION
ERS ARE ENJOINED.
Judge Mcclure Issues Perpetual Iniunc-
ton Restraining Commissioners
From Paying Contract.

At last the Commissioners
have found a stumbling block in
the form Of perpetual iniunc-
tion issued by the court in this
district restraining them from
making payment of the Pauley
Jail contract with which the
readers are familiar. We shall
not go into details of the affair
again, but the decision is ample
evidence that the stand taken
by the NEWS in behalf of the
people was correct and timely.
Now it is up to Mr.. Elder to call
another public meeting and
denounce and,abuse somebody.
Judge Terrell has taken the ini-
tiative in the matter and has
represented the people without
any recompense whatever other
than that based upon principle
and justice.
The Sunday Roswell News
says:
The case of G. W. Singleton
ct al. VS.. Commissioners of Cur
ry county was heard in the dis
trict court yesterday. h. p.
Terrell appearing for the plain
tiff and the district attorney for
the defendant. Judge Mcclure
handed down a decision award
ing a perpetual injunction
against the commissioners re-
straining them from paying for
recent repairs on the county
jail, because of the original il
legal award Of contract.
