TORRENS LAND
BILL OFFERED
System of Establishing Titles
to Property introduced in
Senate by Hulaniski.

BY bill introduced in the state senate
yesterday the adoption of the Torrens
system of land transfers is provided. This
system of trsnsference of title is a part
of the statutes OF a number of states and
has the endorsement of many land own
ers, large and small. The bill system
atizes the work of the county recorder,
who BY its provisions is made the official
registrar of title.
A similar measure was introduced in
the senate two years ago By Senator
Charles HollingsWOrth of Weber. This
bill passed both houses but was vetoed
by Governor Cutler after the close Of
the legislative session.
Senator Hulaniski is the father of the
bill introduced yesterday. To Use the
words Of the senator. it provides for a
local option" system of land transfer.
BY its provisions the question may be
considered at an election in each county,
at which the people may vote on wheth-
er or not that county shall adopt the
Torrens system OF land transfer. When
ever y per cent Of the voters of a county
shall petition the county clerk to do so.
he shall give notice that the question
will be voted on at the next general cleo
ton and place on the ballot provided
for the question
The leading features OF the Torrens land
system are the elimination of the cum
hersome abstract system and the trans
ference of all titles by judicial decree
At the request Of Senator Hulaniski
the measure was referred to the commit
tee on county and municipal corpora
lions.

That the school board of salt Lake City
may be permitted to bond the school dis
trict for the erection OF new high school
in Salt Lake City. at cost of S50o.0o0 a
bill was introduced in the senate vester-
day bE Senator W. y. Williams. pToVid-
ing for increasing the amount Of bonds,
including the existing Indebtedness. per
mitted to be voted at any school election
from , per cent tc per cent Of the
value Of the taxable property in the
district. The bill was referred to the
committee on elections.
The increase provided for IN the bill
will permit the submission at a spe-
cial bond election of the question Of bond
ing the school district for $500 600 for the
buying Of a site and the construction Of
a new high school in the center of the
school population Of Salt Lake This
would bring the building within a radius
Of one block OF SO Of the city and county
building.
The present high school building is re-
moved from the center OF the school pop
by only 2 few car lines. and a great
majority of the pupils attend
ing IL must pass through the
center of the city to reach IT. 1t is in
accessible in Indictment weather, which
causes the absence Of many pupils
The present high school building is al
ready overcrowded and additional quar-
tiers are needed for the pupils. If a new
building is constructed on the east side
Of Main street the high school building
now in use would still he available for

LIBRARY BILL
PASSES SENATE
Measure Receives a Bare Con-
StitutionaI Majority After
Spirited Debate.

BY a margin of one vote the senate
yesterday passed the bill by Senator John
Y. Smith creating a library and gymna-
SUM commission for the state and ap-
propriating s3eoo for its maintenance for
two years. The bill provides for the ap-
pointment of commission of three mem
bers. all of whom shall serve without
compensation. to assist in the establish
ment of public Libraries and gymnasiums
in towns and cities of the state.
The bill was recommended for passage
by the committee on education yester-
day and under a suspension OF the rules
was placed on its final passage. The
fight on the bill was rather warm. The
opposition to its passage was led by Sen
stors Miller and Marks, while Senators
John Y. Smith, kuchler and Bullen
worked hard for the measure. Senator
Smith and Senator Bullen referred to the
proposed prohibitory legislation and said
that when the saloons were wiped out II
would be necessary to provide some place
for the children to go. lest they be lured
into the "slums. hell-holes and brothels
that have resulted from certain legisia-
ton IN other states.
The objection TO the bill was largely
because of the expense involved. On the
final vote those voting for the bill were
Badger. Bulleu, HoTslev, kuchler, Sevy,
John Y. Smith, Stookey, Williams, Will
son and Gardner. Those opposed were
BrinkerhOff. Burton. Hulanislki, Hyde,
Marks. Miller and Seely. The bill was
passed by a vote of 10 10 z, receiving
bare constitutional majority

CONSENT NECESSARY
TO INTRODUCE BILLS

Yesterday was the last day. under the
rules Of the house. when bills might be
introduced without consent. The rule un-
der which bills may be introduced here
after reads;
NO bill shall be introduced after the
thiTtieth day OF the session. except by
committee OF with the consent of ma
jority of the members elected
Consequently. bills introduced In the
house hereafter will have To be by con-
sent Of a constitutional majority. which
Is e i'm the house, the membership of
which is IS.
Mr.. Ashton's primary election law prop
osition is one Of the important measures
to come within this provision. 1t is not
without the range Of probability that a
number Of measures on the prohibition
question will be introduced.
The fact that the consent rule is now in
force need not particularly alarm any
one. for few members viii raise objec-
ton to the Introduction of bills by other
members. knowing that they themselves
are likely to ask the same privilege. In
view Of this fact IL is reasonable to be-
iieve that the eighth assembly will be
not far. if any further. behind the record
esta blished by the seventh assembly.
The house reached a total of 1s3 bills
introduced yesterday. About half a dozen,
perhaps fewer. of these have been with
drawn About half a dozen have been
passed, perhaps one or two more

SCOWL OF LODGE
WAS IRRITATING
William Alden Smith OF MlehI-
gan Said Things to the
hahant Statesman.

Washington Feb. 9.--An amusing en-
counter between Senator smith (Mieh,j
and Senator Lodge (Mass.) marked the
debate on the Canadian boundary va
terways treaty in the executive session
Of the senate today.
Senator Lodge asserted that the for
eign affairs committee had received
from the state department information
which he believed answered Mr.. Smiths
objections.
MIR. Smith. IN his reply. declared the
treaty bad rot been prepared by For
mer SECRETARY Root but that il was the
work of Chanler Anderson. a New York
lawyer. who has been engaged by the
state department on various occasions
in connection with treaties affecting the
relations Of this country and Canada
Mr.. Smith intimated that Mr.. Anderson
was too close to the interests that con-
troll power rights at Niagara falls, and
said that the whole treaty was pre-
pared for the purpose Of quoting the
titles of New York corporations to those
rights.
Mr.. Lodge then minated that the
Michigan senator was not fully ac-
quainted with the treaty. This aroused
Mr. Smith. who told Sir. Lodge ne did
not like his lovks, his scowls or his IT.
ritating manner
Senator TillmaB interrupted with the
remark that he hoped Massachusetts
and Michigan would clinch, but he sup
posed there were too 'mauy centuries
of culture in the Massachusetts, mem
Der to permit Of anything so common
place"
IF they would only get together,
said Mr.. Tillman, referring TO his en-
counter in the senate d few years ago
with his then colleague, Mr.. McIaurin-
lit would detraet from one chapter Of
my history. which / would like 70 put
behind me-.
After a long debate, members Of the
foreign relations committee suggested
that they be permitted to consider the
treaty. II was not recommitted. but
the discussion will be resumed Monday,

comprehensive law on warehouse receipts,

ant as the other subjects.

is Of very great advantage to itigants
in particular and the public in general
that a system Of uniform laws be de-

number of subjects. The lack of uni
fOrmity and efficient regulation in the
matter of commerce wrecked the con-
