CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS.

All. yes; it is as we supposed. The
Smoot organ asked if we wanted the
facts on the '.'saloon in politics - Our
answer was yes. And now it comes
forward, not with any facts at all, but
with innossible nonsense. 1T says moth
ing at all about the deal of 1908,
managed and harvested by the boss 8
bunch, through which the saloons were
brought directly into politics, but sets
forth lot of silly surmises, as that The
Tribune has received contributions from
the liquor interests: which is a stupid
falsehood. As to the other matters men
toned, they are mere political roor-
backs, and so far from The Tribune
knowing all about them as asserted, it
knows nothji2 whatever about them.
But the deal Of 1908, through which
the saloons were brought into politics
by the " "I'cderal bunch,'' and which
is the only deal that rests, so far as
We know, On any solid basis of fact,
has been trumpeted throughout the
STATE; has been charged from public
platforms ty speakers Of all political
faiths, and never really denied-Repub.
ijcans, Democrats. Americans. all have
rccited .he facts, and with abundant
reason There is no refutation pos
sible, That is the deal which dragged
the saloons into politics in this State,
and has kept them In ever since.
The Wild charge that some sort of
bargain was made whereby the sa-
looms here were allowed to keep open
after hours at SO per hour is so gross
n fabrication that il needs but little
reckoning to show its utter impossibility; !;
Couut il up; hundred and thirty sa-
looms at SO an hour, for year and d
half.
1t IS quite unnecessary to deny any
charge that fouuciiman Mckinney was
prompted to introduce his saloon reso-
luton, He is man who acts on his
own responsibility, needing no start
from any one. And the purity of his
motives is above suspicion.
AS to the general proposition brought
forward by the organ of the "bunch" "
| for the publication of campaign con.
| tributions, The Tribune has not the
slightest objection to law compelling
the same; here, as elsewhere, the or
gan IS assumptions, declarations. and al

lature can commend any such measure
AS this to the people of this State is
To have il clean-cut, Straightforward
and explicit in terms. To pass meas.
ure intricate, involved and uncertain,
and .lumbed as between different
classes Of cities, is to invite, not an
attack on the whole proposition. but it
opens the way to contention on a null
titude Of details,
Primarily, however. we suggest that
the legislature, before passing any such
bill as this ought 10 get the best legal
opinion obtainable as TO the constitn-
tional provisions that might be In
vokcd against the commission plan AS a
whole; and we urge that no offhand
scouting Of the proposition that the
constitution does not inhibit against
a commission form of government will
serve the purpose; for there are clauses
in the constitution that seem TO be
very direct and positive on this point.

AS TO REAPPoRTIoNMENT

1T is stated that the Senate will pro
ceed at once to the consideration of the
reapportionment Of the State into Sen
ate and Representative districts for
legislative purposes. The basis of this
consideration, it is explained, Will be
the bill proposed by Senator Stookey.
This bill as introduced provides for
twenty two Senators in place of the
eighteen AT present, and for fifty five
Representatives in place of the pres
ent forty.five. That is, the bill will
increase the number of Senators by
four and the number of Representatives
by ten BY reason of the constitutional
provision that every county is entitled
TO one Representative regardless of its
population, the Representative ratio as
applied 10 the lower house is out of
joint as compared with the Senatorial
ratio; and yet the tendency of Senator
Stnokey s proposition is TO eXaggerate
this difference of Representative ratio.
The contrary. however. should he the
rule. The difference should he relieved
by increasing proportionately the num-
Der Of Representatives rather than the
number of Senators.
Under the Constitution the number
than double tie number of Senators and
never more thar three times the num-
ber. With the number Of Senators fixed
aJ twenty two, there might be a lower
hogsc composed Of sixty six members
This would hc a good deal better than
the fifty-fve proposed by Senator
Stookcy. We trust that this principle
may he kerT in view in the final con
sideration cf tho apportionment qucs-
ton. The Constitution must. of course
be given full scope in according
Representative TO each of the
smaller counties regardless Of their
populations but it is also to he kept
in mind that tho Constitution recognizes
and enforces the proposition that popu-
lation is entitled to representation as
such, and that both these principles can
be given full play under the constitu
tional provisions governing this ques-
ton. Besides, it is always we'll to have
the people as thoroughly represented as
possible in the Legislature and this is
q third principle that would call for n
larger number Of Representatives than
the Stookey bill provides,
1t is to be hoped that the initial priu.
ciples usually governing and always to
govern in the forming of an apportion-
ment bill will be kept an view in this
work, and that the new apportlonment
for Utah will be one that viii be fair
and Just to all the people.

PUBLIC UTILITIES MEASURE.

We are glad that the Senate com.
mittee voted as il did on the bill to
establish n public utilities, alias rail,
road, commission in this State. The
committee comprises seven members.
OF these five voted adversely on the
proposition to establish such com.
mission, and two for it.
We believe that this vote fairly ex-
presses the opinion and desires OF the
people of this State. A commission
Of this sort. whether called railroad
commission direct. or a public utilities
commission, would simply be sort Of
executive instrument for the politi-
the bosses in this State. II would be
means Of eXtorting money from cor
porations Of all kinds for political uses
1t would degrade the public service
into mere political grab bag and
would inevitably breed corruption and
fraud.
1t would also be illegal, the eonsti-
tuition vesting in the Legislature alone
the power to fix railroad rates. which
the proposed commission law would
delegate to body created by the leg.
islature. But it is well known prin-
ciplc that, while the legislature may
have vested in it the authority to do
certain things itself, it has no power
to delegate those things that are ex-
pressly vested in itself, TO any other
body whatever.

MUNICIPAL COMMISSION BILL.

The bill or bills framing commission
form of government for cities of the
first and second classes in Utah has
reappeared in the legislature, as was
expected 1t appears also in obnox-
ious form. While pretending to be the
Des Moincs law, it is far from being
that law. 1t is conglomerate mixing
and making an ENHANCEMENT almost
impossible to unravel, precisely as was
he case with the bill TO the same
purport that was threshed out and
passed in the legislature Of 1909 That
bill was very Justly vetoed by Cover.
nor Spry on constitutional grounds,
and also by reason of its extreme
length and complexity. 1t was impos.
sible for any one TO read that bill and
get any clear idea of its meaning 1t
mixed up first class, second class, and
third class cities in most twisty way,
and a good deal of the time it was
hard to comprehend what class Of cities
was meant in the various provisions as
drawn.
There are certain clauses in the Utah
Constitution which seem to forbid the
en- ctmcnt of such measures as this,
and the passage of a commission bill
will be pretty certain to evoke contests
in the courts. But if the legislature
really wishes to pass bill or bills of
this kind then those bills should be
made as plain and straightforward as
possible, avoiding complication; and
should be put on the same basis as
the Des MONIES law in Iowa, allowing
such cities as desire a commission form
Of Government 10 adopt it for them
selves, upon the system established in
the law. That is what the Iowa law
provides, and that is what any such
law should always provide. The people
if they chose, but it should not be
forced upon them whether they want
it or not,
Another thing that seems TO us in
dispensable in the treatment of any
such measure as this, and that is that
the law should be simple and easy to
understand. If the legislature wishes
to provide an optional commission plan
for first class cities (menning Salt
Lake City,. let 1t do so, framing the
same on the Iowa law. which is well
drawn and comprehensive, and is the
law under which Des Moines acted in
adopting the commission form of gov
ernment that gives tho name to the
measure that is here proposed. There
is no ambiguity in the Iowa law, there
is no mixture of first class and sec
ond class cities. 1t is straightfor-
ward municipal proposition, open to
any city that wishes to adopt it; but,
as we suggest, if the legislature wishes
to have the law apply only to Salt
Lake City, then let it so enact If.
however, it desires for second class
cities the same form Of government,
if they desire to adopt it. let it make
the law general as the Iowa law is,
OF pass separate law for the second
case. The more complication the leg
islature undertakes by reason of an eff.
fort to provide in one bill different
methods and different forms and mum.
bers of commissioners for different
classes of cities, the worse the bill will

under this compromise than they could
have done raising any other crop. And
SO the settlement is to the advantage
of both and certainly the whole com.
munlty will derive benefit accordingly
in seeing prosperity on both sides.

TAX PosTPoNEMENT

Tho proposition embodied in the ~ll
TO provide semi.annual payments of
taxes looks to us as though it would be

Of this kind would have to be prepared
1lth extreme care in order either to
provide relief or to be valid under our
State Constitution, Our Constitutional
provisions for taxation and raising rev.
enue are Of the most antiquated char
acter, and any innovation is liable to
be found contrary to these provisions
The bill, besides, does not seem to
be entirely clear, even as to the dclin-
quencies that would occur on account Of
the halfyearly payments: and it is
quite possible that the deferred pay.
ments would be very much to the dis
advantage of the taxpayer, when Ger.
tain Of the clauses Of this bill are con
sidered. The Legislature would do we'll,
therefore, to go very slow in tampering
with our present rather infrm revenue
system.
It would be an excellent thing if the
Legislature would provide for thor
ough investigation Of the revenue sys-
tens of the various States, with view
to getting the best there is and even
improving upon that, through the best
expert advice and aid Then an amend
