City to Appeal
Remain S Rulinu

In the interests of all NUM-
cipslities of the state which may
some time be faced with demands
for payment of long-lost city
bonds, Tacoma will appeal the
recent decision of Judge Fred C.
Remain ordering the city to pay
S1,605 to Mrs. Bernice A. B.
Keyes.
Shortly after the L. I. d. bonds
in question were purchased in
1907 they were lost. March 20,
this year. they turned up but Mrs.
Reyes found money to pay them
had been transferred from the
L. I. D. fund to the city general
fund.
Controller Tom Swayze found
he had no legal authority to pay,
so the city refused. Mrs. Keyes
sued May 20 and Judge Remain
found the city liable.
The council agreed Tuesday
that the city now could pay the
bill as legal, but it was found no
supreme court case on such lost
bonds ever has been decided, so
Corporation Counsel Howard Car
others will take the case to Olym-
pia before the city pays.

Asset Division
Is Up TO Court

OLYMPIA-The supreme court
Tuesday heard arguments on an
appeal involving division of some
$685. 900 in assets of the Horse

was dissolved.
The case was brought by numer-
Gus assessment payers who OBJ
iected TO the ruling OF Superior
Judge Timothy A. Paul Of walla
Walla county that the money
should be refunded only to owners
of the 1892 acres in the district
when dissolved.
Other landowners wanted the
money distributed to those who
paid II In even though their land
was no longer In the district. Judge
Paul ruled he could not consider
the fact that a large part Of the
$685.. 900 was acquired from assess
ments on lands no longer part of
the district at the time Of its dis
solution.
