CONFIRMATION BY THE SENATE.

CONFIRMATION Ky THE SENATE.
There arc members Of the U,nh State
Senate who seem 10 take peculiar
views OF tho duty Of that body IN
relation to the confirmation Of otiieers
appointed by the Governor. For iu-
stance, certain laws Of the State
provide thot the Governor shall APP
point, with the pdvics aud consent OF
the Senate, certain State boSrds, some
Of which serve practically without
compensation. and are mixed as to
political parties. This makes the Gov
ernor name come persons opposed to
his political views aud also opposed to
the political We've OF the Senate. The
usual custom, and the OILY one en-.
titled 10 respect, is that when the
appointment of these persons comes
up the SENATE inquiries into their
qualifications for the Office, never
interfering with their political Views
since these are recognized as being In
opposition, and il the qualifications for
Office are satisfactory, COT firms them
as the representatives. Of \ party with
opposing political views.
But Utah State senators did not do
that at Saturday evenings session.
They passed by all personal qusliflca-
tons, and objected to ooufitminE one
OF the Governors appointees Tor no
other reason than his supp sed
political Views. Upon board
which the law requires shall have
bat certain number OF membere Of
one political party, the Governor ap-
pointed all that could come from that
party legally, yet senators objected TO
another sppointee for no other reason
nan that he did not support the plat
form OF their party. In other words, be.
cause a man did not support the Demo-
cratic platform In case where the Law
required the appointment Of one who
did not give that support, but cast his
vote In favor OF the party which in
stalled President Mckinley by ma.
