AIMED At BOARD
OF PUBLIC WORKS
Bill introduced in House De-
signed TO Do Away With
the Present Institution.

Claude Y. Russell yesterday intro
duced in the house bill No. 219, which
provides for the adjustment Of the
board of public works in Salt Lake City.
1t provides that the duties and powers
now given the board of public works
with reference to letting contracts for
municipal improvements shall be vested
in the city council. The effect of the bill,
if it becomes d law. will be to do away
with the board in its operation, if not,
indeed, in fact.
There has long been friction between
the city council and the board of public
works, and there has been more friction
between the city engineers Office and
the board. This has been especially
true of the system of inspection of pub
lie works. The inspection has been and
is under the supervision of the board.
There has been adverse criticism OF
much of the work performed by al
legged incompetent inspectors, who, the
engineer asserts, have made it neces-
sary to do a lot of the work over again.
The suggestion has repeatedly been
made by the city engineer that. mas
much as he Is ultimately the man held
responsible for the quality of the i'm
pTovement. his office should have charge
of the inspection. The council believes.
too, that committee of that body
could handle the public improvements
as well as a board of public works, and
do it much more expeditiously.

600. and a provision for the borrowing
from the land board 100000 which is to
the credit of the permanent university

endar in the house yesterday. The cause
for delay is the absence of an opinion
by the attorney general as TO the con-
stitutiOnality Of the measure.

HIGH GRADING
TO BE A FELONY

The bill introduced by Representa-
tive Clegg yesterday, No. 221, makes
high-grGding a felony and. furthermore.
makes it a felony for any person to
trespass on the mining claim of another
and take away ores. The punishment
is fixed at from $50 to 81 900 in fines. and
from one year to five years in prison.
In addition to this, the owner of the
vein whence is taken the ores may re-
cover damages in three times the value
of the ore taken. The present law, sec
ton 1886. provides only for the recov-
cry of damages, and provides no penal
punishment. The bill was referred to
the committee on mining and smelling.

makes it obligatory upon the state and
municipalities to give the preference of

intention. of becoming citize4s. 1t is
set forth in the proposed law that con-
tractors who violate the provisions of
the act shall be subject to a revocation

readily understood, is aimed at the de-
struction of the system practiced by
contractors in employing. foreigners

will doubtless be created by machinery
set in motion by the present legislature.
The new county is to be created out of
portions of Uintah and Wasatch coun-
ties, and will take in the far-famed
Uintah basin, perhaps the richest area
in all the west.
A petition has been presented in the
legislature for the creation of the new
county. Senator Wilson in the upper
branch and Mr.. Pope in the house are
sponsors. 1t is believed that the legis-
lature will act favorably on this mat
ter.
One of the principal reasons for the
establishment of the new county is the
fact that persons living in the district
affected must travel hundreds of miles,
