MORMON TEMPLE
IS NOT A CHURCH
Publication Issued Under Au-
thority of the Church
So Declares.
ALSO THAT IT IS NOT
PUBLIC PLACE OF WORSHIP
In View of This, Why Should
It Be Exempt From
Taxation?

That the Mormon temple is neither a
church. nor public place Of worship.
is now declared in Il little book issued
by the Bureau OF Information in Tenn
pie block. The title page states that
IL is compiled from authentic informa-
tion and the latest reports On the
last page is printed: "Thc Buteau Of
Information is established for the pur-
pose of furnishing reliable information
respecting Utah and Its people, In
view of the fact that the booklet also
states that IT is Il 'souVcnir edition ,
and also bears thc title, utah q. A.
R. The inference is that it is IN edi-
ton Just issued.
In article xii. section 3, of ihc con-
stitution regarding taxation is this
provision:
Provided further: That the property OF
the United states. Of the state. counties,
cities, towns, school districts. municipal
corporations and public libraries, lots with
either religious worship or charitable pur-
poses and places or burial. not held or
used for private or corporate benefit, shall
be exempt from taxation.
Why Is Temple Tax Assessed7
The compiled laws of Utah in chapter
one. title so, in reference to property
liable 10 taxation, provides that all
property III I0c SUaLP not exempt unNPT
the laws Of the United States or under
the constitution of Utah shall be taxed
in proportion to its value. AS TO eX
emptlons the statute contains the sec
tion in the constitution above printed.
IN view. therefore, of the constitution
and the statutes and the printed declar
alton III an authorized document issued
under authority Of the Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter-day Saints, that the
temple is not u church or a public place
of worship, it certainly cannot be ex-
empt from taxation and it is clearly the
duty Of the. assessor of Salt Lake county
TO assess the property for taxation.
What Property Is Worth.
In this book issued under authority
of the church. the cost of the temple is
given AT four million dollars. Add to
this tho value Of the ground and the
property which is liable to he taxed
will run close TO FIVE million dollars
1t is mp to the officials charged with the
duty of assessing property TO see that
something is done

DETENTION HOMES
MAY Be PROVIDED
Action on the Part of County
Commissioners Is Looked
for This Week.
MUST LOOK AFTER THE
YOUNG BOYS AND GIRLS
Juvenile Court Now Is in an
Almost HopeIessIy Crippled
Condition.

Action looking to the establish hment
of detention homes for boys and girls
and the providing OF new quarters for
the juvenile court is expected on the
part Of the county commissioners tins
week.
The city has notified the juvenile
court to vacate it's quarters in the city
and county building by July l. The
need of now quarters is the most cry
ing necessity of the Juvenile court work
in this county right now, so it, is pre-
sumcd that the commissioners will take
this matter up first. although they have
shown wocful lct4largy and dilatoriness
so far
Then the Juvenile court law passed
by the last leGisla turc makes it manda-
tory upon the commissioners 10 estab.
llsh detention homes for both boys and
girls, but so far the commissioners have
paid little or no attention 10 this law.
although there is absolutely no pro
vision in this county for girl dchn-
qucnts. and the boy delinquents are
occupying the old Uintah school prop
erty on sufferance extended by the late
purchaser of the property, the Poplar
Grove congregation of the Mormon
church. The state juvenile court com
mission, at the instance of DR.. h. u.
Gowans, Judge Of the juvenile court of
this county, has announced its intention
of prodding the comm ssioncrs on TO
take active, definite action in this mat
Ter, but apparently the commission has
not applied the prod yet or if ii has it
has had no visible effect upon the com
mlssloncrg.
just About Helpless.
The juvenile court Just now is abso,
lutely helpless and without quarters Will
be utterly useless. For political reasons
the commissioners refused TO confirm
the appointment Of It. j.. Irvine as chief
clerk of the Juvenile court, So the court
rs unable to transact any business, be
ing etfectually. crippled. The juvenile
court commission saws that it has DO
money to pay the clerk, and the com
missioners have refused to pay his sal
airy, but it has been announced that
some arrangement will bo made where
by the court may be furnished with a
clerk or substitute for clerk at the
expense of the county, which is the
beneficiary, not the state, A woman
stenographcr in the place of clerk
has been suggested, but 1T is not GER
tain how the commissioners will stand
upon this proposition,
Only ono session of the court has
been held within the last month and
at this Jude Gowans bad to act both as
Judge and clerk, The court is dcluged
with work that it ought to take care
Of, but cannot legally. And since the
work of the court has been tied up, it
is said. some OF the officers have quit
trying TO keep the work in any shape at
all, and have turned their attention to
helping the county sheriff cmbarass the
county attorney with the red.light
cases.
