the mayor of Provo, and the city coun-
ell have been In deadlock on the ap-

A CARD TO THE PUBLIC.
There seems to be a great deal Of
criticism Just now OF the conditions ex-
and L believe the criticism is Justly de-
served. therefore, j take this means OF
explaining 10 the public my position in
the matter The law giving TO the mayor
the rlSht or appointing and holding him
responsible Tor the appointment OF GER
tam officers OF the city, is very similar
TO the laws conterring the same rights
ana duties upon the president OF the
Cnlted states and the governor of the
state OF Utah. l have given this ques-
lon considerable study, and 1 fall 10
lnd an instance where the senate of the
United States, or the senate of Utah,
mas refused TO confirm the appointments
OF such officials. because of political dlf-
leTenccs. and believe the precedent es-
govern the actions OF the lesser legisla-
tive bodies, in our case the local city
council
Il feel as the executive head of this
city that the responsibility OF seeing that
all the laws and ordinances of the city
be enforced TO the letter, and that all
violations of the same shall be punished
is responsibility now devolvipg upon
rue, and If there be laws the rigid en-
loroement Of which Will work hardship
upon the community. then il rests with
the legislative branch of this govern
lnent. the city council, TO repeal such
laws.
Now I have named for certain offices
men who l believe are reputable citizens
and amply qualified 10 perform the duties
OF the respective offices to which | have
named them in an honorable and efficient
manner The city council has refused
son than political differences. This leaves
me without the association In the execu-
tive branch of the city government of
men who would be accountable to me for
the discharge OF their duties. l there
fore refuse TO assume the responsibility
for the existing conditions, The blame
must lie with the city council. who alone
are responsible, since they have made the
ordinances and by their conduct have as
sumed the enforcement OF the same,
II am for q greater Provo; l am for
the betterment and uplifting OF the
morals of the Provo citizens. II the
council Will confirm the men l have
named. | promise the public that the

] have had no voice In naming, nor
power TO remove. When the city council
is ready 10 confirm my appointments l
shall gladly assume the responsibility
for the enforcement OF the laws and ordl-
nanccs of our city.
