HOWELL TO TACKLE
TANG[E At LOGAN
Scrap Between Democrats and
Republicans Has Reached
the Court.
Special to The Tribune.


OGDEN. Aug. l6.-Tomorrow after
noon Judge Howell will 20 to Logan and
on the following morning will take UP
the quo warranto proceedings that have
been filed in Judge Maushan's court
relative to the right of Democratic or
Republican appointees to office to hold
their places The city administration Of
Logan is composed OF a Republican
mayor, FIVE Republican councilmen and
five Democratic city fathers The mayor
has made appointments not to the liking
OF the hve Democrats In the council and
they have refused at all times to vote
Tor confirmation. II has been tie right
along, but the Republican legislature Of
recent date passed law by which the
vote Of the five Republican councllnen
is sufficient TO confirm the mayors ap-
polntmepts. the result being that con-
hrmation has been given and the mayors
appointees inducted into office. At the
same time the Democratic holdovers
continued In their official duties.
The Democrats claim that the legisla-
tive act is unconstitutional. in that Il is
purely class legislation and was enacted
for the especial benefit OF the Republican
aggregation In Logan. Besides they con-
tend that the law allowing one-half the
council to confirm an appointment over
the heads of the other half Of the coun-
cilmanic body upsets completely parlia-
mcntary rules and sets at nHught the
theory that there should always be a
majority vote In g. deliberative assembly
to transact business.
