ELLET, Justice
(concurring and dissenting).
I agree with the opinion, but not with the purported order made, which I believe to be meaningless to the defendants. To grant the order as prayed for is merely to grant what has already been granted. The prayer of the complaint was:
WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs pray as follows:
A. That an Order To Show Cause issue * * * commanding the Defendants to show cause * * * why Defendants should not be commanded to receive and consider bids and offers to-sell materials to the State of Utah from Plaintiffs * * * on a parity with those of other business associations * * in which a Legislator is not an owner,, partner or other interest holder, * * *.
B. For such other relief as may be proper in the premises.
This court did issue an order to show cause as requested. To conclude this matter I think we should now make the following order:
The defendants are ordered to consider the bid made by plaintiffs on a parity with those made by all other bidders-
