the members to devote great portion
OF their salaries to the payment OF
postage on documents sent out for the
enlightenment of their constituents.
kenner feared that the postage STAMP
privilege might lead TO abuse. The
members. if unchecked, could draw
enough stamps TO liquidate their board
plils, which was construed by Bennion
as an unwarranted imputation upon
the integrity of the legislators.
Mrs. La Barthe, in her first speech
on the floor of the house, defended the
honesty of the members and thought
they could be trusted with the needful
postage.
Kenner moved the previous question
and demanded the yeas and nays, the
vote being uDon an amendment to
stamps. The amendment was defeated,
10 to 20. Following was the vote in
detail:
Yeas-Forshee. Gibson. Hopkins, Ken
ner, Martin, Ray, Robinson, Romney,
Roylance, Shepard, Stewart, n. c.
Sorenson, Thomson, Wilson, Mr..
Speaker-15.

Maxfield. Mckay. Murdoch, O'Brien,
Parry, Price, Sloan, sSorenSon, Taylor
Thoreson, Wheeler-29.
Absent-Hansen.
Robinson gave notice that he would
move reconsideration tomorrow, for
which purpose he had changed his vote
to the affirmative.
Kenner asked that four members
join with him in demanding that the
yea and nay vote upon the passage of
the resolution be recorded upon the
journal. He explained that he desired
1t to be known what members were
voting to increase their compensation
beyond the constitutional limits, but
his request received no second.
The resolution passed-30 to IA.
Taylor offered house joint resolution
No. l, providing for the further en-
commission, at a salary of 81 per day,
to aid the committee in the considera-
ton of the code report.
Upon motion of OBrien it was or
dered that no more bills or resolutions
be printed until further action by the
house

suit or milleniumS of research into the
mysteries of nature by wise men, trained

tested their knowledge by actual expert

II was obtained is now practically un-

age believe that either such wisdom or

True Masonry and the ancient wisdom

legislative Notes.

| Representatives Anderson and La
Barthe, the two lady members of the
house. now sit with uncovered heads
| just like the other members, and have
no fear that any fellow-legislator will
carry off their hats by mistake.
Representative O'Brien's bill, fixing
the salaries of officers and members,
restores the chaplain's pay to 81 per
day. This, upon the basis of two ses-
sions per day, fixes the value of a
prayer at 81.
1t is believed that Representative
Kenner is the owner of the best pair
of lungs in the house, but Represent
atives Sloan and Thompson are also
able TO make themselves heard
throughout the joint building square.
Mrs. La Barthe's first speech deliv-
cred upon the floor of the house yes
terday. indicated that she not only
holds views of her own. but is able
to clearly and forcibly express them.
Sorenson gravely moved that all of
those members who voted against the
postage DerQuisite be 'honorably ex-
cused" from receiving stamps, and
Kenner retorted that they would ex-
cuse themselves.
representative Thomson's bill. giving
voters in cities the power of legislat-
ing by direct vote, is a document of
enormous length, whatever it's merits
may be. 1t designates under what
conditions the voters shall be permitted
to cast their ballots upon subjects of
legislation, at special elections called
for that purpose, and provides. in
minute detail, the manner of conduct
CI1Rh QlaETInnC
Representative Kenner yesterday in
troduced a measure relating TO the
important subject of capital punish
ment. 1t provides that the penalty for
murder in the first degree and for
treason shall be solitary confinement
for life. The court may. however, upon
the recommendation of the jury, i'm
pose a shorter term. not less than ten
years. These Offenses shall not be par
donable, except upon the ground of
Wly-diScOVered evidence, and when
a prisoner is pardoned upon these
grounds he shall receive from the state
the sum OF 81 per day for each day he
has been confined, the total sum not to
exceed a certain limitation.
This bill. or some similar measure,
is likely to become the subject of vigor-
Gus controversy, as local humanitarians
propose to launch an organized effort
against capital punishment

The SURPLUS CANAL.
THE PROJECT RECEIVED ITS
DEATH BLOW YESTERDAY.
Opinion From the County Attorney
Settled the Materials All Re
turned Unopened.

The proposition to construct the sur
plus canal received it's death blow yes
terday The county commissioners re-
fused to bear one-half of the expense
of constructing it at the present time,
and that was the end.
When the commissioners met yes
terday afternoon, County Attorney Van
Colt submitted the following opinion:
Gentlemen-Answerin your inquiry
as to whether Salt Lake county and
city have a right to enlarge what is
commonly called the surplus canal,
from the Jordan river northwesterly,
have to say that in our opinion the
county and city have not the right
either to enlarge the canal beginning
en- the Jordan river or to pour more
water into the same, unless the county
and city procure the right to enlarge
the canal and to pour more water into
the same from the proper parties. Very
respectfully,
WALDEMAR VAN COTT,
County Attorney.
In view of this they decided not to
authorize the expenditure, and when
the members met in joint session with
the board of public works at ) o'clock,
the hour set for opening the bids,
Chairman Armstrong announced the
county boards decision.
In view of this, MIR. Midgley moved
that all bids be rejected and returned
unopened TO the respective bidders.
This carried unanimously, and the con-
tractors who were present and had
their bids in, received them back.
The county commissioners, il is I'M
0erstood, are not opposed to the build
ing of the canal, but acted wholly upon
the advice of their attorney, who con-
siders it extremely hazardous to COM
mence work before the right of way is
acquired.

POSTAGE FOR MEMBERS.

Robinson of Kane introduced house
concurrent resolution No. 2, directing
the sergeant-at-arms to provide all
members with the postage stamps and
newspaper wrappers required for the
transmission of documents and cores
pondence relating TO public business.
The house was proceeding to con-
sideration of the measure, under a sus-
pension of the rules, when the watch
full kenner again detected an assault
upon the constitution and sprang to
his feet in defense of that sacred in
strument. The constitution, ne said,
limited the pay of members to 81 per
day, at which figure the salaries had
been fixed by the legislature. The
pending resolution proposed perquisites
that would, in effect, increase the COM
pensation beyond the constitutional
limit.
Bennion admitted that he was a
champion of economy, but he also ia
vored stamps. Economy did not require

was economy. AS relates to the get
ting of men cheap, he could go out
on the corners and farm out every job
for 80 cents per day.
Rideout's argument in favor of
the amendment was the low
price of wheat and of other
farm products, which crippled
the taXpaying farmer so that he could
rot afford 10 pay the levies of the
state.
But the amendment was defeated.
Mr.. Evans and Rideout Incorporated
their reasons for voting in favor of
reduction into the journal in the fol-
lowing language:
Mr.. President: We hereby respect
fully submit the following reasons ex-
planning our vote against the proposed
amendment substituting $3.50 per day
in place of 81 in S. b. 3, by special
committee on salaries.
We are of the opinion that the pro-
posed compensation is too high, and
further, that it would not meet the
approval of the house, and that by
leaving the compensation at 81 the re-
suit viii be the appointment of con-
ference committee to fix said compen-
