CUTLER MAY VETO
IMPORTANT BILL
One in Which SmeIter People
Are Interested Likely to
BE Vetoed.
GREAT PRESSURE BEING
BROUGHT ON EXECUTIVE
Right of Eminent Domain Bill,
to Help Smelling interests,
May Fail.

The bill which passed the Lcgisla'
ture, giving the right of eminent do
main to the smelling interests of Utah.
is likely to meet with the disapproval
of the Governor. The measure was
passed only after the most bitter oppo-
sition in the Legislature. 1t gives to
smelters the right Of eminent domain
within a radius of four miles from the
point where smclterS are located.
The measure did not have the sane
ton of the hierarchy, for if the bill be-
came a law 1T would take away the 10
per cent rake-off which the church has
had from the incomes OF those who have
been farming on smelter smoke instead
Of upon land
An day Monday the Governor was
hesieged by those interested in killing
the measure, Senator Sutherland had
prolonged conference with the EXecu-
tive, so did his partner, Waldemar Van
Cott. These gentlemen undoubtedly
would like to have the bill vetoed.
Who Would Be Hit.
The American Smelling and Refining
company is. it is understood, against
the bill. That company has its plant
at Garfield and, II is understood, con-
tract with farmers regarding the smoke
problem, hence does not care. The
smelling companies that would be hit
hard are the Utah Consolidated the
United States and the Bingham Consoli-
dated, but these three great smelters
will cut but little figure with the EX-
eCutive If the order TO kill the bill is
Ssued by his bosses.
Among the bills to which the Execu-
g appended his official signature yes
day was the new Juvenile court
assure. This measure permits the
vly-created Juvenile Court commits
TO bounce Judge Willis Brown,
ON the Supreme Court of Utah re-
ested to resign, but who declined to
, SO. it is understood that this man,
whom the highest judicial body in the
State found and declared to be untitled
for the position which he holds, is using
every influence at his command to re-
tain his place. In view that the Cover
nor has, for the third time, nominated
two men, Lynch and Candland, whom
the Senate of the Seventh Assembly of
Utah found guilty of gross dereiction
the concurrence of the House, also
passed measure to punish future
boards for like offenses, there is every
probability that Brown will hang on.
The appropriation bill also met with
the approval of the Governor. The

proved on Monday follow:
