CITY RESPONSIBLE" FOR B0:.'D ISSUES, U vLAilO 'UKANI ;' : (Continued from Tae One) . . 1 . oressea a comoiumauun 10 me request- ing an opinion upon the legality of the bonds issued by the ci'ty of Portland known as 'Improvement bonds' and you particularly desired advice upon the question as to whether or not said bonds were a direct obligation of the city. V;. ... . ;- . 'The bonds In question were formerly Issued under What was commonly known as the Bancroft Bonding act, now con tained in sections 2727. to 27S5 of Bel linger and CottoVs code, as amended by the laws of 1905 and 1907, but are now issued under . tha)'provlsions of section 383 of the charter, which provisions, are substantially -tu same as the Bancroft -v v Bancroft Aet Sustained. ' ; 'The legality of the-Bancroft act was sustained by the supreme court of this state In Ladd vs. Gamble, 35 Or.- 893; Stratton vs. Oregon City, 85 Or. 409. Answering the second question, as to whether, or not the bonds lsaued by. virtue Of said bondlna provisions of the charter are a direct obligation of the city, will say this precise question nas been decided by the supreme court of the state of Oregon In Avery vs. Jov. Or. 520, H where Mr. Justice Beans, speaking for the court said: ' As a general rule, when the logisla-i ture authorizes a municipality to con-' tract a debt, and issue bonds therefor. It is to be inferred that It Intended to authorize v the' payment of such onds out of the money raised J by general taxation, unless there Is something- In the act Itself," or some general limita tion upon the power of taxation, which repels such an inference; and although a special tax or fund may be provided. the bondholder's remedy I not limited to such tax or fund, unless it is pro vided that the bonds shall not be paid In any other way. : The bonds.; when issued, become a debt of the corpora tion, for which Vit is primarily , liable, and for any balance due thereon after the application of the, special fund the holders are entitled to payment out of the general fund of the corporation. In United States vs. County of Clark, 9 U. B. 211, the county had subscribed for stock of a , railroad company,, and Issued Its bonds in payment therefor pursuant to the law which authorized the levy of a special tax to pay them, "not exceeding one twentieth of one pe' cent upon the assessed value of taxable property for. each year, bo t contained no provision that only the fund so de rived should be applied to their pay ment On the, application for a writ of mandamus iby the holders : of the bonds to compel the clerk of the county to draw a warrant on the county treas urer, payable from the general fund of the county, for the balance due on the bonds after the application of the pro ceeds or a special tax the court held that the bonds were debts of the county as ruuy aa any other liability, the sue clal tax being merely an additional pro vision for their payment and for any balance remaining due thereon of either prinolpal or Interest, after the arrilica tion of the proceeds of the sbeciaf tax. the holders were entitled to payment out oi me g-enerai rund of the county, act . , r . , Boston Bond Question, "In Lowell vs. Boston.

He was badly swol len ana uname to retain nourishment At that time I Induced his sister (un known, to the doctor) to put hira back on the Renal Compound. . The result was marvelous. The bloat is all gone, the kidneys are much better, his heart action is now fine, eyes clear and gain, ing' In strength daily. His worst trou ble now is that his stomach is weak and he cannot retain food. I understand the company furnishes a pamphlet glv fng advice as to the treatment of severe cases. Will you kindly send It to met I met. his doctor recently and he said he did not understand what Was keep ing Newcity, alive. But I know and firmly believe if h continues It he will fulty recover his strength. 1 i Regarding my own case I never .feit better in my life than I do today.
