DON'T WANT A RAILROAD COM
MISSION
Utah Press Association Goes on Rec
ord as Opposed to the Plan

Pocatello Tribune
That the intermountain region in
general and the state of Utah in par
ticular needs more railroads rather
than a railroad commission is the be-
lief of the members of the Utah Press
association. AT meeting In Tremon-
ton on September IS that organiza-
ton adopted the following resolu-
tons:
he It resolved by the Utah Press !
association: That whereas the pros
perity of the state means the prosper
ity of the railroads serving the state
and whereas. this association feels
and believes that the managing offi-
GERS of Utah railroads have conduct
ed their business and outlined their
policy in recognition of that princi-
pie, and
Whereas, What Utah needs Is
further railroad development In Or
der that she herself may expand and
develop, and
Whereas, This association desires
to endorse the policy of the present
railroad management and to encour-
age rather than to retard railroad
building. What we want is more
railroads in Utah. Now therefore, be
1t
RESOLVED, That we. the Utah
Press association, are opposed to the
creation of railroad commission for
this state, regarding it not only as
wholly unnecessary from business
point of view but also dangerous be-
cause of the probability that 1t will
become political machine capable
of great and unreasonable oppression
In the hands Of designing or unscrup-
ulous politicians, and be It further
resolved that the nearnesse together
of the sessions OF the legislature,
whereby such changes, notifications
or engagements of existing statutes
as may be necessary can be had with
the Intervention of delegated author
ity, together with the great number
of commissions which the state al
ready has, make such creation not on
lly uncalled for but possibly oppres-
siye, we regard 1t as the part OF wis
dom and justice to unite in opposi-
ton thereto, which we hereby agree
mutually to do" Il,
Southern Idaho Leagne "a,
/ The sixth annual convention OF the
League Of Southern Idaho CONNER
cial clubs. which win be held at Good
ink October II and IS. will take up
the matter of an endorsement OF the.
railroad commission movement In this
state. The proposal to create such q
commission was endorsed, by tHe
league two years ago. but it 10 undef~
stood that sentiment is now grow

on the part of the league. 1T being;

Takethe Post-Offce
Out of Politics

In attempting to Charge up the deficit in his
Department against the magazines the Postmaster
General has done the country genuine, even IT an
unintentional, service He has drawn attention to
the necessity for thorough reorganization of the
Postal Department. He has emphasized the I'M
portance of taking the PostOffice out of politics
for all time.
The Fifty-nnth Congress authorized an inves-
tigation of postal affairs, and Joint commission,
headed by Senator Penrose and Representative
Overstreet made thorough investigation of the
whole subject. AS result, the Overstreet bill,
which contains many excellent recommendations,
was presented. 1t is not from guesswork that we
have concluded that the Department is IN need OF
radical reorganization, but from the official reports
of this Joint Congressional Postal Commission
and of the disinterested accountants hired by 1t to
investigate the business methods of the Depart
ment. We quote from these reports, remember
ing that the findings and criticisms are not ours,
but those of Congressional Commission and It's
authorized agents. First read these recommended

"RISES" so HIGH 1T
SETS FIRE TO CAT AND DOG.

NEW BRUNSWICK, Jan. 1.-THE
pan OF bread which Mrs. Joseph Cast
ner set on the stove at her home in
Jersey avenue here proved so light
and rose so high that it dubbed over
the top of the pan and upset a kero-
sene lamp. The oil spilled out, took
fire and ran over Giner. the Castner
pup, and Tabby, the cat.
The animals ran into the front room,
their fur on fire, and rolled on a couch
to put out the flames. They succeed
ed, but the couch caught fire. Mrs.
Cashier screamed. and someone turned
in an alarm.
Men from the railroad freight yard.
which is nearby, ran in and put out the
fire before the fremen got there. The
couch was burned up, but not much
other damage resulted and the Cast
ners had the bread for dinner.

NO SELECTION YET FOR
ASSESSOR IN MONTCLAIR.
Council Fails to Name
Successor TO .JacObuS.

When the matter of appointing a sue
cessor to William Jacobus on the Board
of Assessors came before the Montclair
Town Council last night, that body was
unable to make a CHOICE. Councilman
Ralph w. Grout, who represents Up
per Montclair, the same territory that
Mr.. Jacobus represents on the BOARD
of Assessors, said:
Il have inquired into and considered
this matter and if the citizens in my
district do not like my action l am pre-
pared to retire from politics when my
time expires January 1, 1911, or earlier
If my constituents require 1T. l be-
'lieve that the petition against Mr..
Jacobus's reappci-tment was signed
by a number of persons under a mis-
apprehension.
MIR. Jacobus has been a member of
the board nearly seven years. and l
fail to find in the petition presented
to the Council any reason, unless per-
sonal, why Mr.. Jacobus should not be
reappointed."
The vote was taken on the two
nominees, William Jacobus and Henry
Hare Jones, as follows: For ~Jacobus,
Councilmen Grout, Wrensch. Alworth
and McGlynn; for Jones, Harris. Mac
Naughton, Hartshorne and Mayor
Crawford.
Councilman william II. Schoonmaker
was not present, and it required five
votes, a majority of the Council, to
elect. The matter was laid over until
next meeting.
