of the pumping station, for which the
present administration alone has to let
the contract.
Conceived Canal Plan.
In addition to all this Mayor Morris
conceived the scheme of having the
city purchase one-fifth of the stock of
the Jordan Canal & Irrigation compa-
up to SAL, 600. This led to the build
ing of the Jordan &, Salt Lake canal,
which conveys water from Utah lake
and delivers It to the farmers who sur
rendered their water rights to the city
in. Big Cottonwood. This property is a
constant asset TO the city, and the
policy inaugurated by Mayor Morris of
giving Utah lake water in return for
water from the creek still continues
and has proved of inestimable advan-
tage to the city.
The only water rights secured by the
present administration were the So
called Knudsen rights, which were re-
Gently purchased for $4,000.
Mayor Morris also expended S3l 900
Of the bond fund in building substan-
tial conduit for the Jordan & Salt Lake
nal through the city. The work was
done by Hanley & Ritchie.
Besides securing the Knudsen water
rights, the present administration only
let one contract for improvements pro-
vided for by the bond issue, and that
was the new water supply main, which
is not yet completed and will cost
s250,0o0. p. ]. Moran has the work.
This main could not have been built by
Mayor Morris, as 1t would have been
of no use until the conduit was com
pleted. 1t Was. however, included in
the general scheme of improvements
which he inaugurated and was planned
by him. This new main runs on Fifth
South street to Mt. Olivet cemetery,
where it connects with the pipe line
from Parley's canyon reservoir, which
is supplied by the conduit 1t runs
through the heart of the city, will fur
nish water enough for all time for the
business district, and will always be
a monument to the genius of Richard
P Morris

Credit Belongs to Morris.

From this review it will clearly be
seen that the American" administra-
ton has had absolutely nothing to do
with the extension of the water or
sewer systems of Salt Lake, as it
claims, and that whatever credit it ar
rogates TO itself for this work is DELHI
erately stolen from Richard P Morris.
Most of the work has been done during
the past two years, and some of it is
still uncOmpleted, but it was all
planned, financial provision for il
made, and with the exception of one
unavoidable instance, all the contracts
let during the administration of Rich
ard P Morris.
The engineers estimate of the cost
of the various undertakings shows that
when all the improvements are made
the bond fund will have been over
drawn S100,0 This, however. would
not have occurred if the plans of
Mayor Morris had been carried out and
If the council had not made a gift of
S45, goo to p. ]. Moran for plastering the
conduit. 1t is safe to say that had
Morris been in office during the past
two years there would be a balance, in
stead OF an overdraft, in this bond fund
on Jan. 1, 1908. How this 500, 600 over
draft is to be met is one of the prob
lens that the administration is trying
to solve, and even if its claim regard
ing the condition of the city's finances
be true at the end of the wear this
overdraft alone will wipe out all bal
ances in the contingent or general ex-
pense funds and will leave a large de-
felt.

new YORK FACES
LABOR STRIKE

NEW YORK, Dec. 27.--There is a
possibility that New York may
within short time experience a
widespread building strike. Re-
Gently the master carpenters an
nounced that wages of carpenters
would be reduced from So to $3.50 a
day. The carpenters union has re-
fused to accept this cut in wages
and committees from both organiza-
lions are trying to reach compro-
mise.
in case the master carpenters in
sist on the reduction 1t is likely that
the $4,000 members of the union
will strike Other building trades
are waiting the outcome of the con-
ference between the carpenters and
employers. In case the carpnters
strike comes, it is more than likely
that similar strikes will follow In
practically all other building trades

Every effort will be made by export
ers in this city to dispatch the ships
with all speed and get the crop out

NEW YORK, Dec. 27.-William

was in town on personal, business to-
day. Before leaving for Washing
ton he talked over the financial sit
uation. Mr.. Ridgeley said:
Il think the situation is improv-
ing gradually, and after the first OF

seems to be that this improvement
will proceed even more rapidly. The
returns under the last call OF the
controllers ONCE have come to hand
so we'll that we know with consider
able accuracy the situation as 1t Is
now with the banks. Upon the
whole, it lis very satisfactory. I
hope to issue from Washington soon
a rather more complete tabulation
of conditions with the banks than
is usually put out
'Tt will be found that the banks
in a great many cities have done
their duty by the public with sur.
prising faithfulness. This is par
ticularly true of New York city. The
same may be said Of other Eastern
cities andsome of the West, St
Louis presents an instance of this
same spirit, and there are a number
of other cases."

POROTLAND, Or, Dec. 81
to OO,OO0,OOO,O0O feet, according
to Charles f. Fields of this city, who
has been consulting United States
Government reports on the subject.
This timber, at the present rate
on consumption, not allowing for
the growth it will make, will last
$50 years." Mr.. Fields says. "Ot
course, the rate of denuding will in
crease as the years go by, but even
then the value of standing timber in
Oregon is, so vast that there is not
money enough in the whole United
States to buy 1t at present prices,
based on $12 a thousand feet.
The timber of the state Is worth
SO, 100000 or about the sum to-
tai of the national debt at the close
of the Civil war. Very few of us
stop to think about this, and it IL
only by hunting the givernment

be made. -~A-wNqIWNB4

timber that run into dollars pretty
