STATE CAPITOL
IN TWO YEARS
1t Is Predicted That Next Leg
iSIature Will Meet in
New Quarters.

The construction of state capitol for
Utah within the next two years was
moved from a possibility to a probability
yesterday by the unanimous passage by
the senate yesterday of four bills. the
object of which is to make the state
capitol a reality within the next two
years. The bills we're considered Jointly
by the committees on capitol building and
grounds OF the senate and house and re-
ported favorsbly. They have the ap-
prevail of the governor and a large ma
jOrity of the members of both houses.
After the passage of the bills by the
senate they were sent to the house. The
committee on capitol and capitol grounds
of that house is ready to report favor
ably on them, and they will come up for
final passage by that body in day or
two. Unless some unforeseen opposition
arises in the house, they will be passed
oy that body by unanimous vote. Their
approval by the governor is assured.
Support of Governor.
The four bills passed by the senate yes
terday were recommended for passage by
the governor in a special message to the
legislature last week. The first bill ere

years will add $4,000 to the state capitol

cial election to be held next June at
which the question of raising the tax levy

purposes. viii be presented. this tax to

The bills contain emergency clauses.
which make the acts effective on ap-
prevail.
It is believed that actual work Of ex-
cavatiOn and construction of the new
capitol will begin within two months
from the date of the passage Of the bills,
and that the next state legislature will
meet in Utah's new state capitol The
building will not be entirely completed at
that time. but IL IS hoped that enough Of
the structure will be completed to house
both branches of the legislature and some
of the state Offices. including the COVER
nor and secretary Of state.
