The worst feature about yesterday S

wind was mild when the velocity of that

Crowds of shoppers were out and none
seemed to mind the weather.
More snow is promised locally for to-
day, but the forecaster doesn't say that
it will be colder. The meteorological re

PRACTICE Is ILLEGAL.
Sheriff May Not Have Contingent
Fund, Says Attorney General.

According TO opinion received yes
terday from Attorney General NJ. A.
Breeder. the commissioners of Weber
county exceeded their authority when
they appropriated 500 to be used for a
contingent fund for the sheriff. This
fund has been in existence for some years.
When Sheriff Sebring resigned a few
weeks ago, the fund was turned over to
the county clerk. A short time later the
commissioners instructed the county clerk
to hand the fund over to Sheriff Wilson.
The authority TO do this was questioned
by the county attorney, and an opinion
was asked from the attorney general.
In part the opinion says;
II know of no law authorizing the
board of county commissioners to create
what is known as a contingent fund for
the sheriff of the county and setting
apart a special sum Of money to be used
By the sheriff at his pleasure. The sheriff

must present his claims with proper
vouchers. after they have accrued against
the county, TO the auditor for his investi-
CATION and action.
IF the boards of county commissioners
had the power to create a contingent fund
without limit and place it at the disposal
Of the sheriff or any other officer. it
might sooner or later result in great loss
to the county. AT least. it would be a.
mighty risky experiment

FIGHT INCREASE
IN ASSESSMENT
Property Owners Object to
Paying for Sewer Work in
Street intersections.

A large number of property owners on
sewer extension No. $50 appeared before
the council engineering committee to pro-
test against the apparent raise in their
assessment for that work The district
includes part of the territory between
State street and Tenth East street, and
Fifth and Ninth South streets.
IL appears that on Jan. H. 1907, the city
treasurer sent out the first assessment
notices on this work. This was before
the contract had been let and was based
on the old blanket assessment for the
district made in 1895 of Sl.30 a foot. Be
fore the contract was let and pending the
advertisement for bids, the legislature
passed a law which nullified this old as
sesSment, as il required that the city
should collect from each property owner
the actual cost of the work i'm front of
his premises This law also provided that
the property should not be assessed un-
I'll after the completion of the work The
city attorney decided that the law gives
the city the privilege of making an as
tain number of blocks the total cost of
the sub-district being prO-rated among
the property owners. In extension No.
$50 these districts were made five blocks
each, and as soon as one of them is com
pleted the cost is figured and new as
sessments made to correspond with the
actual cost in front of each piece of prop
erty.
Charged for intersections.
The contract for the extension called
for 500 a front foot, and James Ken
nedy was given the work. Since Dec.
l he has been making the dirt fly and
the extension is rapidly nearing compile
ton Most of the property owners are
now being assessed S2.3S for this work
Many understand why they should paw
SOS, but they cannot understand the ad-
dition of the additional % cents. This
is done because the property owners
must pay for the cost Of the intersec.
tions. in addition to the cost of the work
in front of their places. In a five-bIock
district this amounts to a burden of 3
cents additional for each foot in front
of abutting property.
The old assessment of s13O a foot. if
II had remained. would have compelled
the city to pay the difference of 70 cents
a foot between the contract price and
the assessment if it had been allowed
TO remain. The legislature in its wisdom
relieved the city from this burden and
trans erred it to the property owners
and this explains why the assessment as
first made had to be changed
The property owners will hold a meet
ing. probably this evening. in the Sec
ond ward hail. to discuss the situation
and steps may be taken to test the right
of the city 10 charge for intersections.

''Mr. Hall does not give the finance
committee or the auditors credit for do
ing anything" complained President Dsi-
Wis He does not seem to understand
that We have been over the ground thor
oughly and are not asking for bond
issue for the fun of the thing, but be-
cause we know that it must be dore
II the city is to have any improvements
this year. If We could have figured il
the way Mr.. Hall has we would have
done so gladly. but he is mistaken ard
he will have TO admit that the city can
not improve unless bonds are issued. 1t
IS useless to say that we can pay for
improvements out of current revenue. No
other city does ii. and Salt Lake is not
an exception to the general rule.
MIR. Ferry Explains.
Considerable desultory discussion fol-
lowed as TO whether the city had eX-
cision was arrived at, as nobody kne ~
and even the auditors professed profound
ignorance.
IAN / can tell you is that the 1895
revenue will not take care of the 1868
expenses and the unpaid debts of 1907
declared Mr.. Ferry. Past records have
shown US that this has never been the
case. We started 1907 with .s126. 600 back
debts. We start 1903 with $13i 900, and to
go back, we started 1906 with $4,000
This shows that we have gone along from
year to year paying off our debts for
the back year and each year increasing
by few thousand dollars our indebted
ness at the end Of the year"

WILL PROTECT
WATER RIGHTS
Farmers Propose to Unite in
Defending Suit Started

SITUATION is COMPLICATED
HOLDINGS HAVE BEEN TRANS
FERRED TO CITY.

Owners of water rights in Parley's Can
yOn stream will unite in an effort to pre-
vent Salt Lake City from obtaining any
undue advantage in the suit which has
been instituted by the municipality. These
people, who entered into a contract with
the city in good faith by which they trans
ferred certain water rights in exchange
for similar rights in the waters from the
Jordan now find themselves in the Pc
culiar position of being sued by the cry
which, it Is said contracted to maintain
them in their rights.
There are in all 100 defendants in the
suit which the city has brought. Process
servers are now busy serving every farm
er and user of water from Parieys can

son who may possibly have had shadow
of a right to such water has been made a
PARTY to the suit.

Owners Are Organized.

According to J. NJ. Cannon, who was
present the Forest Dale owners are in a
better position to defend the suit than
others of the defendants, as some four
teen or fifteen years ago they had their
rights transferred to a corporation which
had afterwards transferred TO the city of
Forest Dale They are organized. Some
years ago there was an attempt to Or
ganize all the Parleys stream owners into
a corporation. but the matter dropped
through. Mr.. Cannon suggested that this
might be tried again.
Some of those present thought the city
might be acting in good faith, and would
bear all expenses of maintaining a water
supply. as was agreed under the old con-
tract. but II was generally agreed that
the suit must be generally defended. Some
attempt will be made to do this by sec
tons and districts that there need not be
so many answers filed and served with a
CONSEQUENT heavy expense.

Another Meeting Called.

a meeting was called for Thursday
evening in the new Forest school building
at the corner of Twelfth South and Ninth
East streets. About score or more re
spOnded 70 the call. which had been is
sued by Daniel Harrington and w. G. A.
SmOOt No action was taken, but the
status of the case was informally dis
cussed. and it was decided to hold an
other meeting al the same place on Thurs
day, April >. at $50 p m. An effort Will
be made to have all the districts repre-
scented at that meeting with view to
concerted action in defending the suit
Daniel Harrington called the meeting to
order and produced the contract which
had been made with the city June %, 1888.
Under this. the city had agreed to give
the holders of rights in the water similar
rights in the waters from the Jordan and
nj agreed to maintain them in their IT,
tie without expense to them. The appor-
tionment of the rights and the manage
ment Of the canals was vested in a COM

Wish to Retain Title.

The farmers have imagined that the
city would always stand between them
and all harm. as regards their water sup
ply. Now, however the city has brought
an action claiming all rights in the
stream except Is per cent of the water
which they admit belongs to the Kennedy
Ditch corporation. The city claims the
other Sc per cent. as well as certain other
rights which it has since developed by ac
quirement of properties in Parley's can
yon
The holders of water rights claim that
they should be continued in their title
and that they still may use the water in
case of failure of the supply from the
Jordan which the city has agreed to fur
nish. Such a contingency has arisen and
the farmers intend to provide against any
repetition.
