ABOUT HIS SALARY

ARE IN SIMILAR BOX
Ground Is Taken That There Is
No Authority of Law for
Action.

veniIc court for Snlt Lake county,
would like to know where he is going
TO get ms salary.
Governor Spry some tlmc ago an
nounccd that the Juvenile court COM
mission has no funds with which TO pay
the chief clerks Of the several juvenile
Monday Mrs. Margaret Zanc Witcher,
county clerk, took the matter up with
the county commissioners.
The county commissioners referred
the matter to County Attorney job J..
Lyon. who gave it as his opinion that
under the law the commissioners not
only cannot pay Irvine but that IT would
be absolutely illegal for them to do so.
Irvine has worked two months or
more without any pay and he is now
naturally becoming uneasy. The COVER
nor says there is no provision IN the law
requiring the Juvenile court commls-
sion TO pay chief clerks of the Juvenile
courts Of the state aud If there was the
commission has absolutely no funds
with which TO make payment aud II the
county attorneys opinion is correct not
only the chief clerk of the Juvenile
court of this county, but the chief
clerk of every juvenile court III the
state is similarly affected.
The opinion is likely to cause wide
spread alarm among the chief clerks Of
the juvenile courts of Utah, rs the de-
feet in the law as 10 who shall pay
them cannot be remedied until the next
legislature. which will be IN 1911, but
it is supposed that some arrangement
will he made whereby they can receive
their salary.
Commissioners Clinton and Burton
were present at tho meeting, Mr..
Mackay being in Wyoming attending
TO his sheep interests there.

ANSWER Of JOB LYON
TO SM00T mouth"
County Attorney to Personally
Conduct Case Against
StOckade Women.

The women arrested in the Smoot
Mouth" raid OF tho west side stockade
VIII be arraigned Wednesday and their
cases set for trial Immediately. County
Attorney Job =. Lyon said Monday The
cases will be tried at the ate OF one n
day. Mr.. Lyon said. and he will person
ally conduct the prosecution. This, is his
answer to the Smoot Mouths charges
OF improper conduct on his part In CON
nection with the cases.
The Mouth s" charges against the
county attorney and the knowledge OF
the law il displays in making them are
ludicrous In one place II says that the
law fixes the bonds In such cases at 500;
in another, IL says that Justice Of the
Peace Hanks fixed the bonds at sloo
each.
The LAW docs no such thing: The
statutes. a s amended by the last lcElsla-
ture. make soliciting. with which these
women arc charged. a misdcmeanor ana
provides a maximum penalty OF ninety
days imprisonment in the county Jail
No fine Is imposed and absolutely moth
ing Is said MS TO what the bail snail be.
Under thc law the bond may he anything
the committing magistrate sees nt to de-
tcrminc. -,
II is not at ali likely that Justice
Hanks will hear these cases. Attorneys
for tho defendants claim that he is biased
