COZ. MISUNDERSTANDING
Judge Powers Exposes the Hot Air Promise Made the Wheemen
Gould Not Levy the Proposed Tax-RepGbIcan
Managers Laughing In Their Sleeves.
BY JUDGE o. W. POWERS.

/ THE avidity with which the wheel
mems committee accepted the
bunch of promises handed out by
the Republican managers indicates
that they are so innocent and guileless
that they deserve the pity of the more
worldly minded If ever men were
gold bricked. they have been, and what
is more, the Republican managers
know it and are laughing in their
sleeves over their cuteness. The tour
ist fooled by the ancient lock trick
is a paragon of wisdom compared with
the innocent lambs on the wheelmen's
committee.
The Republican promise cannot be
carried out because it involves the
passage of an unconstitutional ordi-
nance. The Republican managers are
shrewd men. and the promises We're
prepared by as shrewd a lawyer as
there IS in the city. If the Republican
candidates are elected. the legal ques-
ton viii be referred to the city attor-
ney and upon his advice. that the same
would be unconstitutional the glad
hand will be given to the wheelmen
and sorrow expressed that the legal
obstacles arc such that the promises
made to purchase the wheelman's vote
cannot be carried out.
Why Tax Would Be Invalid
The exaction of a license fee or tax
from those using bicycles cannot be
sustained for the following reasons:
First-As the City of Salt Lake is
only empowered by its charter to Ii
cense certain specified occupations. the
principle ''expressio unius est eXclusio
alterius," negatives the existence OF
this power as regards any one who is
not in pursuit Of these specified occu-
pations
Second-The license fee or tax can
noe be sustained under the power to
regulate the streets as conferred by
the charter for the question is not one
of the power of the city to exact a IL
cense fee from persons using the
streets for business purposes.
Third The proposed ordinance would
5e clearly an attempt to raise q special
fund for the Improvement of the
streets. and a license fee exacted for
a general or special revenue purpose
would be void as an exercise OF the il
cens'ng power.
Fourtb-The license fee would be es-
sentially tax on specific articles of
personal pronerty. already subject to
general taxation. and a second tax
alton. without regard to values is oDen
to the two-fold constitutional objection
Of being double taxation and of vio-
latine the principle Of equality and
Fifth-The use of she streets is
risht and not r privilege or occupa-
ton No tax or license can be inn
rOsed upon the right to travel by vehi-
cle~ or on foot along the public high
ways.

STEAMSHIPS BATTLE
WITH RAGING STORM

Seattle, Wash, Oct. 30.-The steam
ship Queen, Captain Lloyd. made port
late this afternoon with 400 passengers
and $500.00o in treasure from Nome
The steamer brought down a number
of the more important Nome passen-
gers who waited until the last boats
sailed. Only the small steamer Arctic
was left at Nome. The Roanoke had
left four days ahead of the Queen FOR
Dutch harbor
The Queen left Nome Oct. % in a
binding snowstorm. Winter had SET
in-in earnest, and the thermometer had
been steadily falling during the previ-
Gus week The steamer had a good
voyage until within the last forty
eight hours before reaching Cape Flat
terry. at which time she was overtakea
by windstorm directly astern The
gale rose to forty-six miles an hour
and the seas ran mountain high.
The elimination came Monday night
when the ship took to rolling heavily
dangerously, and just at the hour of
change of watch, 4 a. M, she took a
final plunge and a turn. which for the
moment threatened to ron her COM
pletely over. She rolled over to the
port side very nearly beyond the point
of turning back. At the same moment
she was struck amidships by a ire

fire.

panic, and the only Inconvenience suf-

BULLER'S ORDER
TO SURRENDER
Tells General White to Make
Terms With Beers.
HIS MESSAGE MADE PUBLIC
LADYSMITH CAMPAIGN STILL
SUBJECT OF CONTROVERSY.

London, Oct. 31.-The National Re
view gives the essential terms of the
Spatch-Cocked dispatch from Sir Red
-vers Butler to General Sir George
White, when in command of the be-
leaguered British garrison at Lady
smith. According to this authority, the
message ran as follows:
4 have been repulsed. You will
burn your ciphe,s and destroy all your
ammunition. You will then make the
best terms you can with the Beers
after I have fortified myself on the
Tugela."
General Butler, in his speech which
led to his dismissal from the command
of the First army corps. challenged the
National Review to publish the full
dispatch and to explain how it was OBJ
tanned, declaring that he would then
publish a certified copy of the original
and allow the public to judge the mat
ter.
The editor of the National Review
now explains that he got the dispatch
from a civilian who was in Ladysmith
at the time. and who said there was
nothing secret about it. He asserts
also that both General Butler and Cen
eral White have officially asked per-
mission to publish the authorized YER
sion. and that he cannot conceive why
permission has been withheld.
Inc same AHIOIIlduls giving an al
legged explanation of the fact that there
was no cooperation between General
Butler and General White during the
battle of Colenso, says that General
White was informed that the attack
was fixed for Dec Il, but General Bull
Ter commenced the attack on Dec. 10, to
the dismay of General White, who had
not completed his preparations.
The Morning Leader characterized
the National Reviews version of Cen
eral Buffers dispatch to Sir George
White as Imaginary and misleading

bicycle paths. The supreme court OF
Illinois, in the case cited. held the or
dinanca to be invalid and the reason
ing of the court is conclusive.
The court held that the streets and
alleys are held by the city in trust for
the travelling public. and that ali per-
sons have the right to use ell streets
and alleys. which right cannot be de-
MED by the city. The court said that
any method of travel may be adopted
which does not prevent a reasonably
safe use of the street by others, and IF
a right exists in a city council to i'm
pose a license fee b. way of d tax on
every person using wheeled vehicles
thereon, il may in like manner i'm
pose such license fee for such use of
the streets in every other manner of To-
comotion or travel, and reach the man

Right to Use Streets.
The court holds that city may reg
ulate the use of the streets, and may
regulate occupations. such as hackmen,
draymen, etc. such license being an
occupation license and not for the use
of the streets The city may reserve
the sidewalks for pedestrians. 1t may
license those who hold themselves out
as common carriers in a proper exer-

court, no reason exists why ii should

for their own pleasure. as a means of
locomotion," and the court says that IL
is the right of every citizen Ito ride
and drive over the streets of the city

vtded ne does so in a reasonable man.
Farther on in it's decision the court
says: This ordinance on it's face indi-
Gates that its purpose. in part is to
raise a special fund for the improve
ment of streets, and provides for the
manner of it's distribution, and this
amounts to a double tax. The exaction
imposed is a tax on specific articles of
personal property, which are required
by law to be assessed for general tax
2rion ct their value To tax them

only double taxation, but is in viola

Tribune's London correspondent They
congratulated the American people on
the steady and consistent course that
justice has taken in the asSassin's case
and on the utter absence of sensation

The Morning Post considers that the

explanation of his crime when he ex-
pressed a desire to make a sta tement
where there were lots of people. a
morbid desire for notoriety is half the
secret of anarchism, says that paper.
