The matter of disposing of the city 'serwer bonds is agitating the minds of the city council and tho question is still unsettled. An offer of 92 cents was made last week by the. Algase company, of Se attle',' and it had practically been agreed to let the bonds go at that price. How ever the city attorney has rendered anA opinion to the effect 'that the coun cil could 'not legally dispose of the bonds for less than their par' value. The representative ef the company, who was present thereupon, demanded the return of his certified check which ac companied the bid for the bonds. The only means, of settlement - appeal's to be that the council sell the bonds at the price offered and make up the balance. Public school Grove is 1516. enrollment In Forest Edwin C.
