DEMOCRATS IN CONVENTION:
CONTESTS OCCUPY THE DAY

and property To this end we de-
mand that he State Police be main
tanned with such amendments to the
law creating it as experience proves
necessary to enable such cOnstabu-
larry force to properly and efficiently
perform it's duties; and we commend
and endorse the Legislature in pass
ing and Governor Sparks in signing
the State Police Bill.
I'VE condemn as cowardly, unpa-
triotic and unworthy, the action OF
the recent Republican convention in
refusing for demagogic political pur-
porses, any direct reference to or in
dorsement of this measure, when
every Republican member OF the
Legislature voted for it's support
AS the time for adoption of the
platform comes before that Of nomi-
nations, it can easily be seen where
the fight on the Police bill enters into
that for Bartlett.
Theresolution adopted in causus
yesterday afternoon for presentation
to the platform committee is as fol-
lows:
I'VE are in favor of a rigid ana I'M
partial enforcement of the laws for
the protection of both person and
property, and for the maintenance OF
peace and order within the confines
of the State. We feel that If the
State leaves itself powerless to deal
with emergencies as they arise, II
can never enjoy the respect and con-
dence either of the sister states OF
the National Government and lts
progress and prosperity will be seri-
ously retarded by the fear OF ooth
caital and labor that their respective
rights will not be adequately protect
ed.
I'VE declare unequivocally for the
enforcement of law, the preservation
of order, and protection of life and
property To this end we demand
that the State Police force shall be
maintained, and such amendments
to the law creating it as experience
proves necessary to impartially and
economically administer 1t, and en-
able such constubalary force to pro-
perly and efficiently perform It's du-
ties as State officers without inter
ference with the local jurisdiction Of

such manner as to enable it to de-

The clause referring to banking
laws is short and strictly to the
point: 1--WE demand t he enactmen

any other system. The aim of this ad-
ministration is to give the people a
business administration. The salaries
are sufficiently large to justify the
entire attention of each member of the
council, and this close attention, in
fact, is required. There is meeting of
the council almost daily, sometimes
twice a day, the offices of the council
men being in close proximity. At these
meetings we take up all matters that
have arisen during the twentyfour
hours preceding. Each councilman be-
ing a superintendent of a department,
we. of course, accord each member
more or less latitude in the conduct of
his division. Yet, following the spirit
and letter of the Des MoineS plan, each
act of each councilman is considered
by the council as a whole, and thus to
each official act is attached the judg-
ment of five men rather than the opin-
ion of merely one. We do not always
agree, but our conclusions are usually
satisfactory to ALL and, 1 believe, best
for the people as a whole.
"A study of the Des Moines plan will
reveal to any student the fact that Des
Moines has reached a conclusion; that
conclusion is simple. A system of gov
eminent that insures to the highest
possible degree the election of men
whom The People most want, and sim
ultaneously puts these men within
easy reach of The People. will be with
out all those Objectionable features
found in many American city govern
ments. That was the simple conclusion
of Des Moines.
The council OF Des Moines is COM

|so-called common people. The favor

the favorites of these classes of people,
1t seems to me. are bound to be at
swords points with the influences that
make city governments bad.
THE Des Moines plan was not adopt

to unnatural causes. Poor control of

P. J. Moran. the contractor. got back to

two weeks trip to California. With his
three sons, Curtis. Edward and p. j., jr.,
he visited Los Angeles, Santa Barbara
San Francisco and other places.
Mr.. Moran said that San Francisco had
made wonderful showing during the two
years of the rebuilding of the city. AT
present, he said, building is somewhat
dull in San Francisco. the chief activity
being at some of the large structures
which are being completed
Concerning the Los Angeles acqueduct
contract, for which he was one of the five
bidders, Mr.. Moran said that In his opin-
ion the city would do the work. as it has
already purchased a large construction
outfit. ''It is probable that bids were
asked for just to ascertain what contrac-

comparison could be made with the esti-

ASSOCIATION OF THE BLIND
Effort Being Made to Secure Names
of Afflicted Ones and to
Collect Funds,

The board of direc tors of the Went
ern Association of the Blind is send
ing out the following circular
During the spring of 1908 a num-
Der of the blind met in Salt Lake City
and effected the organization known
as The Western Association of the
Blind Its purpose is TO help the blind
on their journey through life, and this
praiseworthy effort will be accom-
plished by encouraging them to read
and to do the various handicrafts for
which they are fitted
THE board of directors earnestly So
licits and invites all the blind in the
intermountain .region to become men,
bers of this association. They hope at
no distant day to obtain building for
permanent headquarters and to en-
courage the establishment of shops
where the adult blind may be taught
some useful trades. thus enabling them
to become. at least partially, self-sup-
porting.
However. the principal thing now
is to learn the names of all blind per-
sons IN. order to determine how many
are in need of the benefits which this
association may grant them in the fu-
ture. The annual meeting of the as
ISOLATION, to which all the blind and
their friends are cordially invited, will
be held in the early part of October in
Salt Lake City.
Anyone desiring to contribute funds
to this Sause may send them to the
treasurer. Mrs. j. j. Snider, go First
avenue, Salt Lake City. and anyone
knowing the addresses of blind people
will confer a favor by notifying the
secretary of the association. A. NJ.
