|NTERURbAN GRANT
MAY Be DECLINED
Abel J. Evans and Associates
Not Pleased With Their
Franchise.

It is likely that the franchise passed
By the board of city commissioners OF
this city for the interurban electric
railroad projected by Abel J. Evans
and others. to run from Salt Lake City
down into Utah county, may be de-
clincd bv the movers of the project
In a talk yesterday with Mr.. Evans
it was learned that the executive com-
mittec of the railroad company wall
hold meeting ut Lchi, beginning at
II O clock this morning. to 90 into the
terms Of the franchise with thorough
ness. and to decide As TO whether or
not the grant made By the city com
mission shall be accepted or rejected.
According to Mr.. Evans. there are
some among the men interested who
feel that the revenue from the pro
posed road demanded by the city com
mission is burdcnsome. Under the
franchise passed and offered to the
company il is REQUIRED that one half
Of ! per cent Of the gross receipts of
the line be paid over TO the city Tor
the first fifty years; that | per cent or
the gross receipts be paid TO Salt Lake
CITY for the following twenty years;
and that ~ per cent OF the gross re-
ceipts 90 10 the city for the succeeding
twenty Ave wears.
II is complained by some Of the pro
| moters that these financial require
ments may work hardship upon the
company. These men are Of the opIn,
ion that these exactions arc well
enough. provided that some clausc be
inserted in the franchise which shall
absolvc the railway company from the
obligation imposed whenever the gross
receipts from the line shall be less
than the amount required to pay oper'
ating expenses. In other words, if the
receipts shall be under the amount
expended for operation, the tax should
be remitted.
At the Leh meeting today it is ex
pected that the entire executive com
mittee will be present to consider the
franchise. The committee is composed
Of Abel !, Evans OF Lehi. George c.
Whitmore of Nephi, Joseph p. Keele,
and D. r. Bebee of Provo, and ]. S

BAD FAITH is CHARGED

Peace and harmony do not prevail In
the county Republican committee since
the meeting OF last Saturday night at
which the resignation of j. Z. Eldredgc,
Jr., as chairman. was accepted. and
when r A. Callister was elected TO sue
ceed him
Not only is there feeling that the
meeting was almost OF surrcptitious ma
ture and that n sort OF snap Judgment
was had in the important matter OF the
county chairmanshp. but the unrest and
discomfort seem to be increasing.
Among those who are not satisfied that
the meeting or Saturday night was rep
resentative Of the county committee
proper and who deem that It's action
partook OF character OF shady political
work, there has so far been no organized
effort TO hnve the meeting reconVeued
and it's action revised, However, there
appears 10 be a determination to bring
the matter finally to issue as between
the two factions in another meeting OF
the committee, at which IL will he the
effort 10 have all regular members pres
