eriticise it more than all other deeds

done.
Mr. Sutherland declared if it was
| necessary for this state to raise the
levy to the limit. in order to raise suf-
ficient money with which to pay its
honest debts, he favored the fixing OF
the limit. 1t is the policy of honesty
Besides if. as suggested. the state is
to bear the burdens of the outside
| counties, the members therefrom ought
to vote to make this levy.
Don't you want to raise the levy
in order to get money for a bounty on
canaigre?' asked Warner.
mo-
you are going to vote for the canal
gre root bounty, are you not?" said
Warner.
81 will answer you more direct than
did the other senator from Utah, "
pleasantly replied Sutherland, land
will say, yes I am going to vote for a
bounty on canaigre.'
You want money for bounty for
silk TOO. do you not?" said Warner.
I'VE have already so decided
Continuing Mr.. Sutherland said the
institutions of the state were hampered
by reason of having to hawk warrants
from place to place. He cited the in
sane asylum as an example and related
how il was compelled to pay 10 per
cent. on it's loans all of which comes
out the people. Mr.. Sutherland chided
Glen Miller for his stand on the mat
ter. THE party we represent has been
accused of being a party of surplus
but never party of the deficits. Sup
| pose we are not returned or our party
is not returned If we are honest? The
reason we are in debt is simply be-
cause we have not hitherto had the
courage TO make our levy adequate to
meet expenses
Mr.. Chichester thought the amount of
eight mills was not too much and de-
clared he would so vote.
Warner moved to defer action until
house bill "a, the canaigre root bill,
was disposed of.
Mr.. Cannon moved to table and his
motion prevailed. A vote will be taken
later on.
