Fourth East and Seventh East
to Be Parked and Paved
With Asphalt.
ENGINEERING COMMITTEE
MAKES RECOMMENDATION
People Anxious for Improve
ments and viii Expend a
Million This Year.

Salt Lake City under American rule
keeps up the march OF progress in
public improvements.
The engineering committed, at the
council committee meeting Thursday
evening, recommended that both
Fourth East and Seventh East streets
be parked and paved with nsphaltum
from South Temple TO Third south
streets. similar TO Sixth East street.
The report viii be submitted TO the
council Monday night, and no doubt
Will be accepted.
The plan ~ TO improve these streets
by laying out twenty four-foot park
in the center Of the street and building
an asphaltum roadway twenty.four feet
wide on either side. This will beautify
the thoroughfares to n wonderful ex
tent, and make that part of the city a
most desirable residence section.
According 10 the city engineer S esti
mates, on Fourth East street the im-
provement there will cost the abut-
tiers s7.45 a front foot. The total cost
to the abuttcrs viii be $29,502; TO the
city, $l65G.o9; total, $31 $500. No
estimate has been submitted on Seventh
East street, but the improvement there
VIII be slightly higher in price on ac-
count of greater cuts that have to be
made in grading.
The intersections in several places
already have been paved. and this will
materially reduce the city's part The
curbing and guttering have been pro-
vided for, too. in contracts let some time
ago. and viii be finished on Fourth
East street some time this fall, and on
Seventh East street next spring. The
paving and parking will not be com
plctci until next year.
mo city in the country is carrying
forward more public improvements than
is Salt Lake City, said City Engineer
Louis G. Kelsey Thursday night. 1.-THE
public wants the improvements and is
willing to pay for them. In fact, the
people are going so fast in this line
that it is hard for the city 10 keep up
and turn out the work. The public i'm.
provemcnts this year will cost close 70
q million dollars. of which the city
part is approximately $ljO,00O. Last
year we built 81 ,2O7 900 worth Of pub
lie Improvements, of which the city s
part was 100000. In 1906 the city s
part for public improvements was Sl64.-
600, the biggest amount ever expended
for public works in any prior similar
length Of time

.bASSETT IS EU}Y ON
BIG LIST OF FIGURES
Deputy Auditor Is Working on
AppOrtiOnment of Re-
demptiOn Fund.

Deputy County Auditor Fred Bas-
sett is busily engaged in figuring up
the semi-anuual apportionment OF re-
demption taxes to the several, city,
county and state, funds. The apportion-
mcnt involves list of figures that
would stagger a lightning and expert
calculator, and usually takes two or
three weeks time.
The redemption tax amounts 10 $32,~
l40.l4 in Salt Lake county this year
This means that that much property
was sold for the taxes. Tho final semi
annual apportionment, on which Mr..
Bassett is now working, amounts to
$lS,644.7i, The apportionment Will be
ready for distribution by the end OF the
month and the amount of the increase
To each fund known,
Less property was sold for taxes this
year than IN the prior year by between
$4,000 and $4,000 County Auditor
Hcginbotham is authority for the
statement that % per cent of the taxes
were collected of 1907, and that OF the
one per cent uucollected Il good part
probably may be checked off because
of error in assessment, Much of the
rest may he collected yet.
Heretofore tho fiscal year with the
county auditor S office has ended Oc-
tober /. but this is gradually being
worked around until the end will come
with the calendar year.

In speaking of his plans, Mr.. Kerfoot

pense of shipping the bullion will be

then sent 10 the mint at either Denver
or Philadelphia. What is more, 1T will
all be paid for here and full value will
be given.
"IHow many will be employed is un

JUVENILE COURT IS
AFTER CANDY CONCERN
Claim Made That 1t Is Sending
Out Indecent Pictures With
Chewing Gum.

Information reached the Juvenile court
authorities Thursday that the Sparks
Candy company is selling to the youths OF
the city, with packages of chewing gum,
an Indecent picture or mod!ng
The information first reached the Of
iicers through school children, especially
boys VINO were loaded down with the
Indecent holdings. The juvenile court
authorities took the matter up with the
candy company, which readily admitted
that II was furnishing the holdings with
packages OF gum, but claimed that it WAS
not Violating the law and assumed a def
ant attitude.
The juvenile court authorities then con-
suited the county attorney. who says that
technically the candy company Is within
the limits OF the statute, which makes II
unlawful 10 manufacture the holdings
but says nothing about the sale OF them.
The matter will be gone into deeper
today, In an effort TO devise some way
whereby the company can be restrained
from selling the Indecent holdings, par
ticularly 10 youths.

dates have actually paid into

: The Tribune accepts the
News's proposal and suggests
that while investigating the rec

amounts paid by Americans,
that, at the same time, we In

paid by tho Republican candi-
dates, which the News and the
: News's owner, President Joseph
T. Smith, are supporting. Also,
that the findings Of this COM
mittee be made public In both

cepts this amendment and will
inform The Tribune, this news
paper will be ready to meet with
its representatives and prepare a
statement of the facts as found.
We guarantee in advance that
the American nominees pay 100
per cent more taxes than do the
candidates nominated by Apostle
Smoot and supported by the
News.
The News has intimated that
the amount Of taxes paid
by person indicates In n meas

connection The Tribune offers
to show that the notorious
Belle London, Queen Of the
underworld, whom the church
controlled administration of og-
den is protecting, IS, ON THE
NEWs'S DEFINITION, a bet
ter citizen than is Joseph 2.
Smith, prophet, seer, and reve-
