A FIGHT TO A FINISH.

The low rumbling noise that has been
emanating from the White House of
late reached the violent stage on We'd
that the house of representatives was
making fun of him and his policies. A
good many observers discovered weeks
ago that Speaker Cannon and his min
the presidential pie, but Roosevelt him
self didn't strike the mustard until his
battleship bill came out of the house
with a joker in it, Two battleships
were provided for, but no money was
included in the provision. Followed an
eruption of wrath that must have made
the weaker brethrens hair turn kinky
with fear.
him, the president promised to veto
the whole naval program, appropria-
lions and all, unless the senate changed
the status of things by including prop
er battleship arrangements in its bill
Just as promptly came the announce
ment from the senate that it would be
good, and yesterday a move was made
TO renew the fight for four big ships
instead of two.
What becomes of the ships is only OF
minor importance; the real interest at
taches to the outcome of the open fight
between Roosevelt on one side and the
house leaders on the other. So far,
Cannon and his followers have had the
best of it, but it would be a fair specu-
lation TO bet even money that the pres
ident will convince them they have had
a fight before they get through. Pend
ing the encounter by rounds, Demo-
Gratis all over the country will recall
the grief that resulted from CIeveland's
battle with congress which took much
the same direction. Ultimately Cleve-
land managed TO disrupt his party, and
Roosevelt bids fair to duplicate the
performance.

and progress. 1t had to have more
sewers; it could not utilize the new
water supply without the conduit.
Times were good, property was ad-
vancing In value. the whole people were
in position to stand heavy taxation.
and no one questioned the wisdom of
the bond loan.
As against these conditions the coun-
ell proposes improvements now which
may or may not be absolutely neces-
sary; the people are already carrying a
ty owners are struggling with special
assessments that are a hardship; many
of the people are hard pressed TO make
a living. Even if it were shown that
the Improvements are necessary, it still
is debatable whether the taxpayers can
stand it or not. Every business man
has occasions when he would like to
make Improvements. and knows they
would be advantageous, but he cannot
afford to assume the added burden of
cost; and the people of Salt Lake are
in much that position today
Desirable as it might seem to have
rapid and extensive improvements in
the municipality, the diminished earn
ing capacity of the individual citizens
and the certainty that regular taxes
will be heavy combine TO make the
bond question debatable
Meanwhile IL is incumbent on the city
administration TO furnish the figures as
to the city's finances in such form that
the least intelligent citizen will know
from them what the future holds for
the taxpayer

ADJUSTMENTS TO-DAY.
PONDS AND BUSINESS.

IN an editorial on the proposed new
issue of bonds by the city. the Tribune
urges non-partisan treatment of the
subject as matter of fairness. The
Herald agrees that a business matter
of this sort should be considered with
out partisan bias, provided the coun-
ell assumes the same position. That is
to say, the council should not for par
tisan advantage conceal the true con-
ditiOn of the city's finances Equitable
consideration of any business proposal
involves entire frankness on both sides,
and, so far, the council has not been
frank with the people as TO the finan-
cial status of their affairs.
X X
If an individual proposes TO borrow
money of bank for Improvements, he
takes il for granted that the bank will
call for statement of his liabilities
and assets. He expects to tell all of
his liabilties-not a part OF them, and
he expects 10 set forth the true value
of his assets. He knows further that
the bank will consider not only his I'm
ancial resources, but that IL will in
vestigate closely his business methods,
his promptness in settling debts. his
personal habits. In other words, a bank
takes into account the moral risk of a
lean as well as the actual financial
risk; and very often the man of small
means but good character and sound
methods has better credit than the
good moral risk
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1908-04-24

The taxpayers are asked to assume
the responsibility for loan of $500, 900,
the money to be spent by the city
council now In authority. 1t is not
only fair, it is imperative that the tax
payers consider whether the methods
of the council justify confidence in its
way of doing business, whether the fin
anCial statements issued by the council
are of the sort a careful banker would
accept If he were going TO lend $500, 900.
Are the men who control the expendi-
lures of the city in the council entitled
TO the absolute trust which a banker
would have TO feel before he made such
a loan? Have the councils affairs been
managed economically, carefully. with
regard to nothing but the best service
at the least cost?

These are the Questions the taxpay-
ers ought to ask themselves when they
come TO vote on the bond issue, and
these questions are the ones that ought
far, The Herald has not been able to
get the information necessary to intel
ligent, unbiased judgment on the sub
ject of a new loan. The fi~ur fur
nished by the special auditors and the
city officials have not been explicit;
certainly no banker or bond buyer
would lend money on such data. There
has been no statement for months
showing the actual indebtedness of the
city. its unpaid bills. its outstanding
warrants to date and the liabilities to
be created in the near future.
No one except city officials knows
how much the city's overdraft ac-
tualIy is after trust funds are elm
mated from bank balances. No state
ment has been given out as TO the ex-
act amount due to property owners for
excess assessments collected on i'm
provements. 1t is doubted whether
property owner who has paid too much
on assessments could hope to get his
money back on demand; and it is GER
tain that such property owners have
not been advised that money Is due
