The case, an original mandamus proceeding brought by W. P. Haw ley of Oregon City to test out the validity of Ihe $1,700,000 bond Is sue voted by Clackamas county for good roads, is said to be parallel in many respects to the Cnion county road bond 'case In which the nu prcmo court held the bonds to b. valid, declaring the six per cent limitation provision under whien the issue was made to be effective without additional legislation.! In its previous action on the Clackamas county bond issue the court held that th issue was inval id in that it exceeded the four per cent limit provided in Ihe act of 1913. The latter act raising the limit of road bond indebtedness to 6 per cent, the court held, required additional legislation in order to make the provision, operative. Since the decision in the Clack amas county case there has been a change In the personnel of the croiet as well ;i ;i ffhlllM ill the stand of Justice Bean on the ques tion which is directly reflected in a reversed .attitude of the court on the bond question. 1U 1 arc!,- t Li I sola tale M'.iot, I'l'r but Dublin Papers Belittle Import of Home Rule Dublin.
