Of courso wo know that somo local Influcnco Is behind It, for Mr.r Halo only pnys a tax of ono dollar nnd twenty-three cents, nnd that Is not such nn I terest as would warrant tho Inter ference of tho United States court to protect. "Tho' board appreciated tho fact that thero was somo opposition to tho-bond Issuo nnd so submitted to tho people nt tho next election tho propostlon of bonding; thus tho peo ple will bo given tho opportunity to pasa snuaroly upon tho quostlon, u If tho proposition Is turned down, tho board would not bo foolish enough to fight public opinion.

It nlay bd that this suit has been In com storage all of tho tlmo, as would seem from tho stale allegations w referonco to tho bond Issue, and now that tho Port caso has actually ueen advanced upon tho docket of tho su preme court, this old suit is Drougiu out in the United States court tc take the place of it. "I don't know how long tne peo plo of this locality want to stand for these delays; professionally, I don't much care, for it is pleasant work, to dig out these questions, and Mr. Bennett is a good fellow to havo against you, for ho is courteous and accommodating.
