Two days of time, which the Board of
Equalisation of Florence did not Walt for,
has provon very costly to the little village.
Judge Day Friday handed down a decision
declaring the tax levy of M.000. made
August 30. to pave the streets, void. , The
reason given was that the notice of the
Board of Kquallzatlon wa not published
for four full weeks, a required by
law. The 'notice was printed In four
txsues of th Florenc Tribune, but
the hoard met juat twenty-six days. In
stead of twenty-eight dafs after th first
publication. - All proceeding wer held
good up until th time of the levy of the
tax.
By the franchise and statute the street
car comany Is required to pay for paving
between the rails and a foot outside, but
the court said in view of the fact that the
contractor paved that part of the street
the city should pay reasonably for the
work. By the decision the city of Florence
Is enjoined from paying the $7,600, donated
by the County CommUsloner of Louglas
county to Florenc, to th contractor, un
der the term of th contract. "But," say
tha deciHlon, "by thl it I not meant to
prevent the contractor from filing a claim
with the council based upon the value of
the arrvtee rendered for paving that part
of th street In question."
The caxe Is known on the court docket as
Paul agalnHt the City of Florence and re
sulted from a levy made against all of the
property In the city for paving Main street
one ndle and a half long.
