ture of a sensation. The citizens’
committee has employed counsel to
prosecute suits against the sewer con-
tractors, and injunction papers have
been prepared. The following con
tentions are made:
1. That the council has no authority
to let contracts for the construction
of sewers, the law specifically stating
that the lot owners shall pay only the
actual cost of the work and labor nec-
essary to construct the sewer.
2. That Black and Laird’s bid Wk«
not the lowest, hence could not un-
der any interpretation of the law be
constructed to be the actual cost.
3. Fraud, first on the juggling o*, \u fhc churches of the city met In
