Need of d Change.

Everybody knows that American
cities are VIGOROUSLY misgoverned as q
rule, and l cannot say that Salt Lake
is very brilliant exception 10 the gen-
erau tendency. The council could he i'm
proved somewhat l believe. and so
could some of the methods of conduct
ing business. We will always have this
kind Of government, however. no mat
ter what party is IN power, as long rs
we adhere 20 the system which now
prevails As soon as the people begin
10 realize that municipal government
Is business, ana not politics, then there
viii be change for the better This
is true of all other cities in the coun-
try, as well as Salt Lake, and in my
opinion one OF the best ways To bring
about this desired change would be 10

SENATE EQUAL
TO THE HOUSE
Senator Lawrence ImpreSSeS
This Point on His Col
leagues.
RECOGNITION IS GRANTED
UPPER HOUSE PASSES STATUTE
REVISION BILL.

senator George n. Lawrence Of Salt
Lake Is OF the opinion that the upper
mousse is equally as important as the
body ruled over by the illuminated
countenance OF Harry Joseph. His ar
suments were so eloquent and conclu-
sive yesterday afternoon that his col
leagues agreed with him and. as a re-
suit. hereafter when joint committees
are appointed the senate will have the
same representation as the house al
though the latter body is numerically
much larger
me matter was brought uD when
senator wesley K. Walton offered the
report of the joint committees on public
lands recommending that a commission
De appointed to investigate the exact
status of mineral lands claimed by the
state as part of the government allOt-
ment- The report provided for three
mousse members and two senators on the
investigating committee. This discrim-
nation in favor of Harry Josephs min
ions seemed to disturb Mr. Lawrence
considerably, and with considerable de
termination I'm his voice, he said:
Demands Equality.
81 don't see why the senate should
not be equally represented with the
house We certainly are equal i'm power
and, although we have fewer numbers,
our eighteen are as powerful as the
combined force of the fcrty-five reprs-
sentatives."
Senator Walton did not object to the
change. and President Love named
Senator'S Walton, Benner X. Smith and
Hulaniski as the senate members Of
the committee
AT the beginning Of the session SEN
ator Bullen, chairman of the printing
committee, recommended that more
copies of the senate bills be printed,
and it was decided TO increase the
number from 200 to 500.
Two bills We're considered. The first
being senate bill No 10. introduced by
Senator Rasband and providing for
the equipment of an emergency hospi-
tai at the mouth Of every mine employ
ing over ten men. Several technical
errors being discovered in the wording
Of the BILL it was referred back to the
mining committee for revision.
Statute Revision Approved.
The other bill was senate bin No. >.
providing for the creation OF a statute
revision commission. The measure was
passed unanimously after several minor
amendments had been made. Senator
Benner y. Smith is the author of the
measure. his WAS the second OF his
bills which the senate has passed, the
other being the bill for capital punish
ment of "lifers'' I'm the penitentiary
guilty Of assault with intent to kill.
and while he was smiling over the sue
cess of his latest effort a messenger
from the house brought the unwelcome
tidings that his first bill had been
squelched by the representatives.
An invitation was received asking
J,n n orfin in

Seattle in 1909. The communication
was referred to the committee on fed

Joint Land COMMITTEES.

a report recommending the creation o.

was adopted on a statement from Mr

Opposes Ward Division.

Il have heard some talk of amending
the bill so as to have five trustees. one
from each municipal ward. If this
amendment prevails il will destroy the
effectiveness of the measure TO q great
extent, as it viii make each commits

constituents in his own ward. The 2d-
vantage Of having three trustees elected
at large is that each man will be re-

he may happen To represent Four
years ago l introduced a bill in the
senate along these lines. 1t provided

Lawrence Explains.

In explaining the resolution. Senator
Lawrence said: Il understand that the
house has already taken some action in
this matter of an independent nature
and think that in order that any in
YestigatiOn that may be made will be
comprehensive and thorough. that the
senate should work with that BODY.
Inc question is so important and far
reaching i'm its effect that it concerns
the welfare and comfort of every cit
zen in the state. There has been con-
siderable agitation in the public press
and many charges have been made
against the railroad companies and
others charging willful neglect of duty
For one, L am not in a position to talk
with authority on the subject and
would like to be enlightened. If there
is remedy the legislature should an
ply il, and it is at least our duty to
probe the allegations and charges so
that the public may know the causes
of the trouble"
Senator Lawrence outlined his ideas
on the conduct of the investigations of
the proposed joint committee more in
detail after the session. He said:
L would have the traffic managers
and other railroad officials subDOenaed,
and would inquire Of them the reasons
for the coal famine l would also have
fuel men, mine managers and others
called in order to ascertain correctly
all shades Of opinion on the subject.
This is the only way in which an ac-
curate and fair determination of any
evils complained of can be reached"
