Senator Smith Introduces Bill
Requiring Railroads to Pro
vide Certain Officials.
DECLARES SHOULD BE A
LAW ONE WAY OR OTHER
Having Defeated the Anti Pass
Measure, Author Thinks Sen
ate Should Go Other Way.

Senator Benner X Smith of Salt
Lake introduced a bill in the legisla-
ture Monday, compelling railroads to
issue free transportation within the
state to certain state and county
officers. When the Badger anti-pass
bill was under consideration in the
senate Saturday Senator Smith said
that there should be a law forbidding
the issuance of passes or n law com
pelling their issuance He said that
he understood that the railroads at
present furnished all the officers
enumerated in his bill with passes, so
that the passage of the measure would
not inconvenience the railroads, and
at the same time would free the state
officers from any criticism which might
result from the acceptance of passes
under other circumstances.
Senator Smith has secured the addi-
tion of an amendment to several laws
providing that where free transporta-
tion is used no mileage shall be paid
by the state. The text Of the bill com
pelliDg the issuance Of passes follows:
Every railroad company operating a
railroad within the state OF Utah shall
issue TO every state officer, the judges OF
the supreme court. judges of the district
court, members OF the legislature mem
bers of the state boards and the sheriffs
OF The several counties of the state, free
over their several lines OF
railroad within the state of Utah. and
1t is hereby made the duty OF the sccre-
lary OF state to certify TO each OF said
railroad companies list OF all said per-
sons so entitled TO free transportation un-
der this act Said railroad companies
shall deliver said free TRANSFORMATION Ia
the secretary Of state. who shall distribute
The same to the persons entitled thereto
And IL shall be unlawful for any of said
oihcers, Judges. members of the leeis-
azure, members OF state boards or shcr-
us to solicit or receive free trausporta-
lion for any member OF his family or
relative or other person. This act shall
rot be construed TO include street rail-
way companies.

tee and j. II. Wootton OF Utah county is
chairman of the house committee
The appropriations bill includes in 1t
all the appropriations in bills which have

ton. il contains appropriations provided

bcrs from various sections OF the state
viii endeavor 10 add to the appropriation
bill items calling for expenditures in
their particular sections Of the state.
Governor Spry is given power TO veto

preparations added from now on viii

GERMANS PROTEST
AGAINST MEASURE
Central Verein Declares That
Liquor Bill Is Curtailment
of Liberty.

communication was received in the
house Monday afternoon from the Ger
man American Central Verein, protest
ing against senate bill No. 205, the
liquor measure. on the ground that it
was class legislation.
The communication follows:
The German American Central Verein.
an organization representing all the
German societies, lodges and clubs of the
CITY and county OF Salt Lake, as well as
OF the state OF Utah. hereby enters its
protest against senate bin No. COS. now
under consideration before both houses
tends 10 curtail freedom OF individual
action and is. therefore. objectIonabl BILE
from the viewpoint OF personal liberty.
The German American citizens, not only
in this state but throughout the country
look upon all these proposed liquor meas
ures as a step toward the curtallment Of
liberty; they regard them not only as
futile and inefficient measures but also
as vicious In so far as they will cvcntu-
ally prove an entering wedge which. un-
der some f)imsy preteXt. may be used
successfully to take away the individual
night to eat and drink as one chooses
and finally will lead TO statewide prohi-
bition, which apparently is the ultimate
aim.
Aside from these general objections, we
respectfully submit that senate bill No.
2ob contains the most objectionable piece
of class legislation ever adopted by any
legislature. in far as IL provides that
counties outside OF Incorporated cities
shall not vote at the proposed local op-
ton election 10 be held on June 81. 1911,
and excludes these counties as dry ter
ritory without giving the citizens therein
an equal opportunity to vote at the cleo
lion with the voters Of the cities. The
same bill. Furthermore. unfairly dis
eliminates in favor of hotels and drug
stores against the saloons by allowing
the former Ia establish themselves I'm the
neighborhood OF a church or school And.
lastly. it prohibits the sale OF lunches
and meals In connection with the retail
liquor business-the very thing which
would help TO elevate the general stand
ard of the saloon business. as tho eXpe-
rience in Germany and other countries
has proven 10 the satisfaction OF all fair
minded observers.
The fullest measure of personal liberty
with the good order Of socic-
~ has always been the belief OF German
American citizens in this their adopted
and In their native country Any re-
straint placed upon such personal liberty
wiil in the end prove harmful to the
stale and TO the individual, who cannot
and should not be expected TO silently
submit TO any movement which repre-
seDts the dangerous beginning OF unius-
tifiable interference with legitimate en-
giving employment to thousands of la
borers and keeping money at home which
might otherwise he sent out of the state
1t is in this spirit of freedom and love
OF fair PLAY that We protest against the
adoption Of senate bill No 2O5 or any
unfair and reasoDable character
The communication was signed by Leo
Dannenfelzers president; j. Kohlcr, Sec
rotary; NJ, j. Dixon, treasurer.
