Tekaanah Ha k to Be Registered. Tekamah, which voted I1O.U00 electric light bonds some months ago and which the auditor refused to register because the bonds amounted to S per cent of the as sessed valuation of the town, will after all get the bonds registered and be permitted to sell them. At the same time Tekamah was turned down so was Red Cloud, which voted bonds u..der the same statute as did Tekamah. The latter town laid down and did nothing and Red Cloud appealed to the supreme court for a mandamus to com pel the auditor to register the bonds. The court held It was legal for a city or village to vote bonds to the amount of t per cent of Its assessed valuation, even though an other section of the statutes limited the amount to IH Per cent ot the valuation. The former section, the court held, had not been repealed. In view ot this decision the auditor wrote to Tekaham to send down the bonds, and If the only point upon which they had been refused registra tion was that which applied to the Red Cloud bonds, they would be registered.
