103 P. 775 | Or. | 1909
delivered the opinion of the court.
This is an appeal from a decree entered upon an order sustaining a general demurrer to the complaint. The suit was instituted to test the right of the city of Forest Grove to issue and sell bonds for the securing and constructing of a water system. The proceeding involves the validity of the city charter and the regularity of the proceedings thereunder, in reference to which it is contended that there has been a failure to comply with the general law of 1907 (Gen. Laws 1907, p. 398, c. 226), providing for the carrying into effect of the initiative and referendum powers reserved by the people in Section 1 and Section la of Article IV of the Constitution in regard to municipal legislation.
Other errors are suggested; but, not deeming them important, the decree of the circuit court will be affirmed.
Affirmed.
