VOTE ON THE AMENDMENTS.
Nobody Seems to Know How These
Questions Survived.

What became of the three consttu-
rional amendments which We're up for
consideration in the recent election?
Apparently they We're completely lost

In preparing information for the
press, the election JUDGES in Salt Lake

Gor.-eiact William spry made today
ms hrst official announcement concern
ing his policies upon becoming gover-
nor of Utah.
What do you think is the most i'm
porpnt problem you VIII be called up
on to meet?" was asked OF the recent
Republican candidate this morning.
Ihs building of Il state capitol" was
the immediate answer. Il shall make
my first business in office that of ascer-
tanning If any practical move can be
made in this direction. and IL find one,
shall urge 1t upon the legislature
Many complications must precede the
final erection OF state capitol The
first one in sight now is the fact that
it cannot be done under the terms of
the Constitution by bonding the state
for funds to do 1t With. Without funds
in this direction. and without funds
from the regular revenue. think prog
ress will be difficult. but some move
ought to be made, if only to get the
preliminary work done. 10 clear the
way for action a few years later, then
BY constitutional amendment or other
wise We secure money with which to
go ahead.
Secy Of State Tingey, who is familiar
with the many schemes before devised
to erect state capitol building, was.
asked this afternoon il he had any
practicable plan in mind upon which
to proceed.
Yes he said, there is practical
way in which construction could ne
commenced, and if the people backed
it, by which the capitol could be COM
pletely erected.
FROM SALE OF PUBLIC LANDS.
Taking into consideration the fact
that the state is already carrying
bonds, left over from territorial days
! TO within 100000 of the total indebted
ness allowed, and the further fact that
we need this margin of 100000 TO carry
each seasons necessary loans through,
| we cannot look in that direction.
However, there Is a state fund ac-
cruing from the sale of public lands. *
| part of the money SO received must be
applied to public buildings just the
same as another part must 20 to ed,,-
/ cational purposes. In this public build
Ing fund there is now, with its accrued
! interest, possibly close to 100000. Let

| state capitol nucleus. Then let it add
to it by appropriating for 1909 s75. 900
and 1910 $4,000. These sums can lie
squeezed out, if economy in making
other appropriations is maintained
They would give a working fund on
which to begin.
Then let the next legislature pass a
resolution favoring a constitutional
amendment increasing the maximum
possible bonded indebtedness. At pres
ent it is limited to s1,10O,000, and there
are 100000 in bonds outstanding, all
of them dating back to territorial days.
When the people pass this amend
ment, if they favor it, bonds can be
made available to carry on the work
after 1911. these TO be arranged for by
the 1911 legislature. .

the Associated Press here last night
expressing his views on the result OF
the election as follows.
While | believe that Judge Taft viii

theless Of the opinion that the cleo
ton OF Mr.. Bryan would have been far
better for the country
I'VE need, to quote an oft-used ex-
preston. change of measures and OF
men. this including the enforcement
of existing law against its violators in
stead of prosecuting the latter's inno-
cent victims in the opening Of the
government books by experts not afraid

| the expenditure of public funds, no
longer even promised by the Republic

nant Republicanism and the threatened
evils OF Socialism the careful business
man, the Industrious laborer and the
prudent producer must all seek shield
and protector and naturally must turn
TO the Democratic party.
