other purpose than for the payment of the principal and

notice in one newspaper published in Allegany County and
such newspapers and technical press as it may deem proper,
for bids for the construction of said system or systems, in
part or as a whole, as in its judgment may appear advisable.
The contract shall be let to the lowest responsible bidder, or

of which shall be enforced in any court having jurisdiction.
