SENT TO CONFERENCE.
Bill Providing for License Tax on
Corporations.

The senate yesterday returned to the
house in amended form house bin No.
80. by Hone requiring corporations to
take out license. The original bill
fixed this license tax ON a graduated
scale. the license ranging from $50 TO
s1O0. according to authorized capitaliza-
ton The senate made the license in
blanket form and fixed it at so for all
corporations.
The motion to concur in the amendment
met with much opposition and the bill
was finally sent to conference on a sub
stitute motion, with Hone, CritchloW
and Henrie as the house conferees. In
the beginning. it was stated. the act
sought to increase the revenues of the
state by half a million dollars each year.
Under the amendment about Sis .009

was asserted. that have a capital stock
of only s5.000 do a bigger business than
one with a capital of s109.o9a. Reference
was also made to corporations who seek
to dodge their just proportion of taxation.
and bill of this character is intended
to cover these slippery customers. The
senate also reduced the ptnalty from 500

PLAN TO PURIFY

LUKE" BILLS DISCUSSED
NO TRAVELLING EXPENSES FOR
DISTRICT ATTORNEYS.

Three bills having for their purpose the
purifying Of elections and political CAM
paigns went the way Of many another
bill whose intentions are good but whose
falling is lack of appreciation. There
were two committee. reports on Mr.
Marks house bill No. 222- This meas
IRE required the keeping of accurate ac-
count of expenses of elections, by whom
and for what purpose the campaign funds
were distributed and how, and requiring
a report covering all of these interesting
details. The majority report was unfa-
vorable to the bill and, the minority,
signed by one member. was favorable.
Some of the members were OF the opin-
ion that il was nObody's business how
campaign funds were expended, so long
as they were expended legitimately. Any
how, IL would be impossible to find out
who spent them and how many votes
he landed with them. There had never
been any scandals or charges of fraud
or crOokedncss in connection with the
expenditure of legitimate campaign funds
in Utah. and until such was the case
legislation OF this sort would only bur
den the statute books. The majority re-
port was adopted.
UnfaYorable reports were adopted On
Marks house bills 22l and 225- The first
mentioned prohibited city officers, clerks
and other employees from taking an ac-
tive part In any political campaign or
movement. The other prohibited the So
Letting of campaign contributions from
or by any city officer, clerk or other en-

Luke" Bills Up.

There was a deal of sharp discussion
on two of the so-ealled Luke bills. One
of these provided penalty for the prae-
tice of champerty by corporations and
the maintenance in courts of litigation or
it's solicitation. Mr.. Tolton moved to
amend by making the act apply to per
sons and firms as well as to corpora
tons.
Il have no use for these ambulance
lawyers declared MIR. Tolton, "and they
are the chaps | want TO get at. These
fellows are going around at all hours

and strife in order that they may get

The amendment was adopted and the bill

ding at all, for it was a pretty badly
whipped reform measure when It
emerged. This was senate bill No. 161,

Mr.. Tolton and Mr.. Petersen did not
believe the legislature should be called
upon to carry out alr this legislation d.
rected against one little justice court in
Murray. Il Salt Lakes officials were
crooked. il was Salt Lakes misfortune,
but also SAT- Lakes fault. 1t was ri
diculous TO array the whole state against
a single justice court that had baffled
all of the lawyers in the county.

actions TO hold their place must be prose-
euted in the regular way by the plain
