It Is not likely that the city com mission will elect a successor to James Weatherly, commissioner. whose resig- nation was announced in The Age Herald yesterday morning.
 MT. Weatherly's term of office ex- pires November 1 and as there VIII be only two months between this time and the time his successor would take office. it is very likely that the va cancy will not be filled until the peo- pie choose his successor.
 Clarence B. Lloyd. secretary or the commission, yesterday received MT. Weatherfy's resignation and passed It to the file for next Tuesdays meet ing, at which time it will be dis posed of
 The formal resignation reads as

 TO the Board of Commissioners,
 City of Birmingham:

 As you. know, 1t has long been my purpose to resign before the expiration of my term or oIIlce' for reasons heretofore publicly stated My services from now on to the end of my term are at your command. just the same as though I were commissioner. as to all mat ters relating to the business of the city, and especially relating to the departments of which I have had charge.
 Since April II. 1911, have served the city to the best of my abil- ity, and regret more than I can express the severance of my pleas ant relations with you and the city government Very truly yours,

least three newspapers authorized to
publish proceedings of the board of
county commissioners, delinquent tax
lists, and any other publications which
are printed for the information of the
taxpayers, and the plan of printing
such matter only in the paper which
has the general printing contract is
considered n relic of the distant past.
Taxpayers have demanded the publica-
ton of these matters in their local
newspapers.
Under the circumstances prevailing
in Carbon county, this plan would be
especially desirable. The outlying dis
tricts of the county which contain any
bulk of population are practically iso-
lated from the county seat, and not
one person in ten has any idea of what
is going on at the county seat, as re-
CARDS county business or otherwise.
The Snake River valley is even more
isolated han the Platte valley, and
the people of Snake River should be
entitled to read in their home news

transacted. The Sun has u circulation
of nearly 900, Mt least 80 per cent be
ing distributed within the confines of
this valley, to actual residents, tax
payers and property owners 1t is ri
diculous to assume Thai any other
newspaper has more than u small frac-
ton of that circulation in this region,
and that the taxpayers of this valley
can be furnished the information to
which they are entitled through the
medium of II newspaper published
many miles away.
The publication of commissioners
proceedings is solely for public benefit
and information, and the present meth
cd of attempting to disseminate this
information through only one newspa-
per in an extremely large county is
inadequate and very unsatisfactory to
II large proportion of the taxpayers of
the county, failing in large measure to
accomplish the object for which this
public expense is incurred.

The city has this week placed an Or
der with a Denver firm for two 25-gal-
Ion chemical engines, which will be de
livered here in the near future. 1t was
decided that the small chemical en-
gines are the best means of fire pro
lection the city can afford at the pres
ent time, and with n battery of three
it is felt that any blaze of ordinary
proportions can be controlled
Some 200 feet of new hose for the
city fire pump was also ordered. New
hose for the old chemical engine was
purchased some time ago, and with the
arrival of this equipment the town will
be in less danger from fire damage
than ever before. Some arrangements
will now be necessary for the housing
of the new apparatus.

Users of Explosives Must Have a
Federal License.

A Federal license is now required in
the United States for the legal posses
sion of explosives, any person having
explosives and not holding a license
therefor being subject to a fine of S5,-
900 and Imprisonment for one year.
Only citizens of the United States
and friendly countries may obtain Ii
censes. The purchaser of dynamite
must state definitely what the explo-
sive is to be used for when obtaining
his license, and will be held account
able for its use as stated and the re-
turn of any that may be left.
With the strict enforcement of this
law, the Federal authorities hope to
prevent explosives falling into the
hands of evilly-disposed persons, and
to put a stop to all further dynamite
plots.

SUBSCRIPTION RATE


AS announced elsewhere in this is
sue, the subscription price of The Sun
will De increased from $500 to $3.50
per year on January 1, 1918. This in
crease is not so much II matter of
choice as of necessity, to offset in a
measure the greatly increased cost of
everything necessary to the conduct of
the business. Paper, inks and all other
newspaper supplies have within the
past two years increased from 100 to
100 per cent, and were we to raise our
subscription price in the same ratio,
the new rate would of necessity be
somewhere between 5000 and $500, in
stead of $3.50
Newspaper rates are not so flexible
as those of most other commodities,
and when once fixed they are difficult
to change, and we have hesitated long
before deciding upon an increase of
even % per cent.
We have only chosen the lesser of
two evils, and this move being an eco
nomic necessity, 1T apologies are neces-
sary. One of our trade journals says

FOR PUBLIC
INFORMATION

There are at least two items con,
nected with the county printing that
should rightfully be published regular
ly in every paper in Carbon county
the proceedings of the board of county
commissioners and the delinquent tax
list.
1t is, of course, n business PROPOSE.
ton for the county to contract for the
bulk of its printing, giving the con
tract to the lowest bidder. The tax
payers are not at all interested in the
various blank forms, stationery and
much of the other printing used by the
county officials in the conduct of the
public business. The published pro-
ceedings of the commissioners and the
delinquent tax list, however, are pub
lished for the information of the pub
lic-the taXpayers-and the widest
publicity should be given.
Carbon county now has but three
newspapers, in widely separated fields,
and it would be no more thar a fair
deal to all the taxpayers for these pub
locations to be made in all three papers.

neighboring states, each county has at
