their own homes, they are compelled to
advocate. When they get wise enough,
and brave and desperate enough to top
pie the institution over, and the Gentiles
recognize the individual property rights
of plural wives, so they shall not be
robbed of bread by opposing polygamy,
the womanhood of Utah will assert
itself, but now it is not possible, and the
women know it.

The track was icy between Ogden an

in connection with the proposed amendments.
With reference TO the L2ndphysjcian it ha q
often been a question why his salary was
not fixed under the budget, bat every wear
taken up on a Money Bill it did not appear
that this salary saould be subject. to vote.
while to all other officials, the salaries are NOT
voted on After the Ordinance on yaccina ion has
come into force, there would be an additional
reason for having the salary regulated and
fixed on the budget.
The amendments were adopted as follows
No. l was adopted unanimously with l2
