BRIGHTMIRE, Special Justice.

The dispositive issue here involves a principle of importance and is whether a municipal corporation may pay the costs of printing and distributing a newspaper published by a private publishing company. The trial court held it may not. Temporary Court of Appeals, Division 71, held it may. We reverse the temporary court of appeals and affirm the trial court.
