lated to influence the minds OF
the people and get them to pro-
test against any use of public
funds in making . road. street,
and particularly a bridge to the
new station. The county did re-
fuse to build the bridge, but the
station is going to be changed,
and some of our own citizens
have undertaken to build the
bridge. 1t would seem that one
Of the objects of the railroad
is to yet put every manner OF
obstacle in the way of building
this bridge. 1t was noticed that
the section of railroad that was
built in the dead hour of night
stopped exactly when it had
crossed the site Of the proposed
new bridge.
The map and profile, which the
Short Line first filed with the
county clerk, shows the railroad
with different location, but aft
erward 1t seems that they chang.
ed their line NOTABLY when citi-
zens we're arranging TO dedicate
certain new streets and this new
bridge was being located) and
insisted upon running the road
where it would do the the great.
est damage to private property
and the proposed new streets.
and likewise endanger the lives
of people for all time to come.
We want the Short Line. We
favored the subscription to it.
We do not want it obstructed in
any way. But certainly the
f; promoters of it should not en-
tirely forget that the public have
rights.
1t was rather high handed
and certainly lawless proceed
ing to place large force of men
at work IN the night to do a GER
tain thing that it was thought
our citizens would object to hav-
ing done in the light and to have
these foreigners prompted to Idle
in the ditch" fighting if citizens
dared to interfere when their
property was being dispoiled.
The property that is being con-
demned by the Short Line, so
far. has been taken at a mere frac-
ton of its worth and should the
railroad never be built this prop.
erty is well worth all the expense
the company has incurred. If
the Short Line is speedily built
and operated as a competing rail
way system people will heartily
approve every necessary, heroic
act that was carried out by its
promoters. They may never ap-
prove the midnight work but
they may be willing to condone it
on account of the benefits that
will come as a result of the new
enterprise.
If, on the other hand, this is
scheme to get the subscription
that was ordered and the valu-
able property that is now beng
acquired, it is difficult to tell just
where the indignation of our peo-
pie would end.
The impression seems to be
abroad that the people OF the city
or some of them are fighting the
Short Line. Such is not the
the case. Our people want the
Short Line, the new B 6 o. sta.
ton, the street to the same and
the proposed Elk bridge-yes, we
want them all and want them
bad. We object to one trying to
impede the other, especially when
there is room for them all. Every
body knows that the railroad, the
street and the bridge can be To-
Gated so one will not interfere
with the other. Let us have
harmony. We want peace and
prosperity, railroads and road
ways, depots and foctories-let
them all come.

There are courts to try aud determine

THOSE LONG SESSIONS.

II the City Council would figure to
get through Its business at an earlier
hour than 10 the present custom, a
number Of the members OF that body
would feel better, and there would be
less opportunity to criticize the Coun.
oil adversely when there is really no
serious cause for faulthnding.
There are some unpleasant situations
connected with councilmanic respon.
sibilities, in which undeserved criti-
cism often forms an important part;
and 1t is quito noticeable that In
some OF the newspaper accounts re-
porters lend themselves 10 this
business by enlarging upon the work
OF some councilmen and suppresging
information concerning the official
scts Of others, though no reputable
newspaper representative won Id
knowingly pursue such course. Yet
1t can be said OF the Salt Lake City
Council that 1t reaps injury from al.
lowing some OF It's members to talk too
much to no good purpose, while others
are altogether too oyster.iike In their
dumbness when 1t comes TO important
questions.
Frequently there is occasion ior
considerable explanation and die.
cuasion over matters that como
before the municipal controlling BODY,
and It would be- wrong to apply any
thing like gag-rule thereto. But re-.
Gently few members OF the City
Council here have taken much more
time than they should have done in
gags, jokes, bluffs, plays for popular
favor, quipbles over rules, ami in other
ways that are entirely unnecessary
to the dispatch OF business. II
would be graceful act for those gem
tlemen, and would not restrict either
their usefulness or popularity, to show
an Increase OF respect for the right Of
fellow members to say something OF
dignified and essential character.

Council finished Its business in fairly
good shape, so far as the closing result
