The regular meeting Of the CONNER
cial club last night brought out agood
attendance of the members. There
was nothing Of special Importance to
come before the meeting, but a num-
Der Of routine matters were disposed
OF.
The division Of the club into four
sections by the board Of directors was
read and approved Time and :place
of meeting OF these four divisions will
be al nounced soon, for the organiza-
tion of the divisions by the election of
chairman and the appointment of
subcommittee.
On motion Of c. B. Rogers the presi.
dent was authorized to appoint per-
manent bonus committee of five mem
bers with w e. Clapham as chairman
This committee will be expected to
take charge Of the raising Of any bonus
that either Of the five divisions may
require in the carrying out of its work.
1t is expected, of course, that any
factories that may be persuaded to
locate here will demand at least a
free site.
Several methods for the raising Of a
bonus were DISGUST, the general opin-
ion seeming to favor the one used SO
successfully in Coffeyvllle, where the
Commercial club bought land adjoin-
ing the city, plated it, and sold the
lots whenever money was needed for a
bonus. Possibly some such plan will
be adopted here.

we're jolt from Senator Lawrence who
said that, OF course. this measure could
not apply TO any of the street cars in
Salt Lake City. as they never 90 fast

The bill says that no vehicle or other
conveyance shall go fast enough to en-
danger life or property. In the Discus
SIGN. Senator Lawrence brought down
the house by asking Senator Huianis-
Hi: "Can YOU tell me whether YOU
would consider the minimum speed OF
a motor car is the maximum speed OF
q mule?"
SO far no petitions have beeen intro
duced in the senate. This is rather un-
usual, as there are generally a class of
aggrieved citizens who think that they

son won. This came as conclusion Of
two days of balloting. the five members
Of the senate Insisting that Lawrence
should be chairman, and the five house
members equally positive that Robinson
should have the honor The first meeting
was held Tuesday and after three ballots
had been taken the meeting adjourned
after choosing Senator Willis johnson as
]. +. Tolton as temporary secretary. The
session was continued yesterday with no
better result both sides standing firm
Finally Senator Hollingsworth proposed
that the contestants draw cuts. and two
slips were placed in a hat which was
held by Senator Johnson. The hat hap
pened TO belong TO Robinson. and this
fact must have brought him luck as he
drew the marked slip. Representative
Tolton was continued in the office of
secretary and Daniel Haymer was chosen
reporter and ]. r. Edgheill sergeant-at-
arms.
The first melting will be held today in
the office of the mayor, when plans for
conducting the investigating will be dis
cussed The committee has the power to
subpoena witnesses. compel their attend
ance and punish for contempt if neces-
sary. 1t is probable that many railroad
and mining officials will be asked 10 APP
pear and explain reasons for the delay
in shipping coal from the mines.

later date.
There are only six bald-headed men in
the hOuse-Tolton. Taft. Thompson
Bower BOurns and Hennie.
Mr.. Thompson demonstrated the fact
that baid-neaded men make good pre-
siding officers. During a brief incum-
bency of the chair yesterday he showed
himself the equal OF Mr.. Tolton. who has
been called upon several times to pre-
side temporarily over the house proceed
ings.
Mr.. Tolton paid the penalty OF having
an enlarged picture OF himself printed
in a newspaper yesterday. by passing
cigars around TO the members at the
close Of the session. Mr.. Taft set the
example by setting up oranges on the
day previous.
Mr.. Marks is answering roll call with
unfailing regularity these days.

bunch to American Fork next Tuesday
night to enjoy a terpsichorean evening at
the famous Apollo hall.
