TAXPAYERS MAKE COMPLAINT
Allege They Are Not Given Credit
For Payments.

John James, county clerk, has re-
ceived by mail of late numerous com
plants from persons who aIlege that
Salt Lake county is acquiring land IL
legally for the supposed non-payment
of taxes. The compliments aver that
through errors made by county officials
property owners for the most part liv-
ing outside of Utah, are not credited
with having paid their taxes when they
have in reality done so. The latest let
ter came yesterday from DR.. F. J..
DOrr, who stated that he had paid the
taxes on his Salt Lake county assess
ments regularly. yet the corporation
had taken up the land for non-pay-
ment of taxes.

The highest number written by one
person was nineteen. The lowest was
two. Five Republican ballots were
written by one person. The other fifty

cratic.
1T is evident that two kinds of ink
were used in the writing of the bal
lots" said Mr.. King. whether this
was occasioned by two different kinds
being furnished by the election com
mission, or whether certain ballots
were written outside the booths, of
course / am unable TO say.
Six More Precincts.
It is the general belief among the at
torreys who have followed the con-
tempt proceedings closely that the re-
suit OF the discoveries made by the
court will be to bring the ballot box
OF every precinct where contempt is
There are six more precincts in which
election officials are awaiting trial for
contempt.

FIGURING COST Of

FOR ECONOMY
District Employees Collecting Data to
Show What Money Will Be
Saved to City.

The various departments of the Dis
trlct government, who's duties cali for
the use Of horses. buggies and wagons,
VIII begin within the next week TO get
together all available data to throw light
on the feasibility of Commissioner
Vests plan TO provide one huge stable
for all horses used by the District.
This plan. as outlined in The Times
last winter. is designed 10 save the Dis
tr1ct money. At present. the local gov
eminent horses are put out 10 board
at livery stables or kept in various
small stables throughout the city. Mr..
West thinks that one stable for the
whole number would mean less eX-
rense.
A Measure CT Economy.
II the District stock is collected in one
place. il is argued. it will not be neces-
sAry to employ so many men 10 care
for them. One stable. as advocated by
Mr.. West. would take up an immense
area OF ground. TO accommodate ali
horses used in the Engineer Department.
IN the Street Cleaning Department. and
b. various inspectors of all branches of
local government.
Mr.. West said today that some de-
cision wOu be reached by the end Of
summer The next few months will be
spent in the collection and c%onsidera-
ton of the data as to stable room re-
quirod. number OF horses to be fed. and
present cost Of maintenance in scattered
quarters.
Objection to the Plant.
Some objection TO the scheme has been
made on the ground that no site could
be found for the stable central enough
70 make IL easy of access for all
branches OF Government. For instance,
1t is claimed. II would occasion a loss
OF valuable time II all the horses used
in the street cleaning operations were
housed in one place and driven each day
TO all the outlying parts Of the city.
In the same way. If the Engineer De
partrnent were engaged I'm hauling dirt
AZ Fourteenth and Chaplin Streets, II
would he announcement 10 have TO lead
or drive the cart horses from such a
location as First and d Streets south
east.
There are. however. many who aGvo-
cate very strongly the adoption OF MIR.
Vests scheme. They claim ii Will save
thousands Of dollars for the local gov
eminent. and will insure all horses hav-
ing spacious and suitable quarters.
