Opinion
A careful examination of the pleadings in this cause discloses that a writ of injunction is the only relief sought by plaintiffs. The only issue of fact raised in the pleadings is directed to the right of the plaintiffs to this relief. The election they seek to enjoin was held 31 August, 1948, and is now an accomplished fact. Hence, the questions plaintiffs seek to present on this appeal are academic. For that reason, the appeal is dismissed on authority of Eller v. Wall, ante, 359, and the cases there cited.
Appeal dismissed.
