Asked whether or not ‘the city commission of Bismarck, being; 1a city of over "4,090 population, may sell $235,000 worth of bonds for the| which purchase of water works,, bonde»have been — regularly without first advertising. for for the sale thereof, the ‘Attorney. General's office ky first John Thorpe replied as follows: In our, opinion, the sale may made in such cake, without advertis-| ing for bids, Unter Section 4014, be- ing part of Article 14, of the Politi- cal Code of the Complied Laws of 1913, it is provided as follows: “Any city * * * in this state may incur a bonded indebtedness for the purpose * * * of putting in water works, etc.” It is thereupon provided in Section 4015 of the-same Article as follows: “The bonds voted as provided for in this Article shall be sold at not less than par value.” The two sections constitute the/ whole of said Article 14. It will, therefore, be seen that no advertis- ing is required under those sections. | We ure not unmindful of House Bill No. 130. Session Laws 1923, which provides that no. city shall sell * any issue of its bonds for’ whatever purpose issued without first advértising for bids.” The foregoing is contained in Sec- tion 6 of the same Act is found the following’ provision: “The~ provisions of this Act shall ; not apply to sales of bonds issued by population Therefore, none of the provisions of said House Bill No. 130 apply to the’ City*of Bismarck, it being a city of over four thousand population, and that being true, said Sections 4015 is not in conflict with said House Bill No. 130, so far as the same applies: to cifies of over. four thousand population, and is, therefore, not repealed, It must be borne in ‘mind, however, that such bonds must not be sold at less than pas.” tA single banyan tree has been known to: shelter 7000 men at a time.
