.COUNCILMEN TOO
BUSY TO CONVENE
SoIonS So Interested in Elec-
ton They Will Hold No
Meeting.

With the city election on Tuesday, in
tsrest will be at fever heat tonight, as a
result of which there will be no meeting
of the city council The council adj
jourued last Monday to meet on Nov. 8,
but the next meeting will be held on We'd
nesday night, chiefly to pass the pay
rolls.
Little has been done by the commit
tees for several weeks, and there win not
be many things before the council. The
sOlons will hold either a jUbilatiOn meet
ing or a misunderstanding upon the re-
suit of Tuesdays election. There will be
so many talking about the election and
telling just how it happened that there
viii be little time for actual city bust
ness.
Tne one matter Of Importance coming
up Wednesday night is the resolution
adopted by the waterwOrks committee,
which starts the ball rolling for the i'm
provement and lengthening Of the East
Jordan canal. 1t is a scheme for the
improvement of the water supply Of Salt
Lake which Will cost upward of Sl25,O00.
The purpose of passing the resolution is
to indicate the citys Intention to the
court in the condemnation proceedings
which are now under way in getting land
for the widening Of the canal and for its
lengthening.
With the close OF election the Moran
bill for $4,000 may also come up, and il
is probable that it will bear the names
of all six Of the special council commit
tee. three of whom refused to attach
their signatures two weeks ago, aftel
giving their word that they would sign
owing to public opinion in the matter, II
is probable the claim will be turned down
and Moran will have to go into the courts
/ to establish his claim to any part Of the
money.
Another matter which has become cold
waiting for action will be the old Fern
| strom resolution regarding slot machines
with instructions to the chief or poles
/ to arrest the saloon men and cigar deal
| ers where machines are run, instead ol
| merely confiscating the machines. TIT
matter has been in committee for sew
eral months, but was held there because
of the bargain between the saloon mel
and the American party. 1t will probably
/ be killed after election, though the Amer
lean party council did not dare take TN
/ action before election, because OF public
/ Indignation which would result.
| The resolutions Of L, Z. Hall to haV.
the American party billboards taken OF

ertv on Main street will also be takel
