McDougald to | enjoin the auditing and payment of the claim of the National Surety Com- pany for $1475 premium on the bonds of city and county officials. The prem- fums were divided as follows: Treas- urer, $500; Tax Collector, $400; County $250. In his complaint Saulman used this language: “That it would be an im- proper, unauthorized and illegal gift to the individual for the premium on Wwhose official bond such payment was made and an illegal conversion of pub~ lic funds to private uses.” —_—— Damage Suit Compromised.
