Mr. Justice Bouck
concurs in so much of this opinion as upholds the 1.409 mill levy in question; but he dissents in so far as the opinion denies the right and power of the City and County of Denver, as a home rule city, to advance its funds for paying unpaid balances of any of its public improvement bond issues in instances where the aggregate amount of special assessments theretofore paid happens not to have reached the full four-fifths of the particular issue and thus happens not to have reached the *442point which makes the advancing compulsory. He also dissents in so far as the opinion declines to declare the law on certain clearly germane matters included among those pleaded in Denver’s so-called third defense and counterclaim herein.
