fellow-taxpayers of Encktiwnna town
ship, petitioned court yesleiday for an
Injunction to pt event the pioposcd
taking awnv of the piesent Mlnaoka
school building and the rulslng In its
place of a new and costly Hltnctuic.
The lutltlotter.s ilalm that the new
school is not Immedliitely upccssniy;
that 1L is not lo be tenttallv locaiod:
that the boa id has no title to the lot
on which It Is lo be built: that tho
eontinct was Impiopulv awaided. and
that the expense ot the new 'building
will hit lease the township debt beyond
the two per rent, limit.
It U alleged that tho bid ol Taylor &
Tubbs lor net Hug the super.strilctute
was ti.no less than that of Mulhetin
& Judge, who wete nwaidcd the ton
tiact, and that there was no icaoon
w by Hie low er bid shoutd not have been
accepted.
Tlie stipeistitictllle Is to cost t13,.00;
I he foundation. $3,100, and the plumb
ing. S19SI. When the building i com
plete it will cost, so the petitioners
state, $2-,000. The township has a lloat
Ing debt of W.OOO, and bonded debt of
$11,000. which with the cost of the new
school make a total indebtedness of
$11,000 Theie is only $13,000 in the
iieasuiy. and $1,000 of this must be
used during tlie year for salaites and
otbei current expenses
The assessed valuation is $7." 1,000.
Two per cent, of this is $1".,020. The
difference between this and the $.12,000,
the amount of the proposed deficit,
can not be incuiredns a debt, the petl
tloneis claim, -without the consent of
the electois, and this consent has never
been given.
In view of all this, and the fact that
a s-pcclal lew must be made to meet
the $40,000 municipal debt of the town
ship, the petitioners ask the court to
put a slop to the building off the now
sphool. A rule to show cause why An
In lunotlon should not issue was made
leturnable next Monday morning at 9
o'clock. It is directed lo the school dis
liiel of Lackawanna township. School
