This is an appeal from an order refusing to dissolve a preliminary injunctional order, and continuing the same in force until the further order of the court. The action was in equity, and was brought by the plaintiff, as a taxpayer and father of three children attending the public schools of Eond du Lac, against the members of the board of education and the superintendent of schools of said city, for the purpose of declaring void an order of the board changing certain textbooks in said schools, and enjoining the carrying out of said order on the ground that the action of the board was fraudulent and illegal for reasons stated at length in the complaint.

After hearing the motion, the order appealed from was made, the order reciting that the motions were heard together “upon dhe bill of complaint and upon the affidavits read on behalf of the defendants and upon behalf of the complainant.”
