June 2. iff) The state iupremc court upheld today the val idity of the proposed 8375,000 fund ing bonds tn Coos county and affirm ed the mandamus action of the lower court to force the sale of the-bonac by the county clerk. The main contention of the county clerk In refusing the court order to offer the bonds for sale was thai the bonds were void under the state C constitution because "they constitute a debt of a county, such aa defined by the constitution, and there la no authorization of the Incurrence of debts for the refunding of past ex penditures, but only debts to oe in curred In the future." The opinion, written by Justlca P. R. Kelly, stated the court was unable to agree with a contention that such a sale would create an indebtedness. "We think that the issuance of the warrants which com prise the obligation of the county thus sought to be refunded are not debt or liabilities.' as defined in the a constitution. The bonds were voted more than a year ago to refund warrants Issued for county road Improvements. Cir cuit Judge James T. Brand upheld the mandamus proceedings and his decree was affirmed by the state court.
