AND A MPPPV "' n SOUL WAR ft
STATE SOLONS FIGURE
OUT MANY NEW LAWS
Tho tenth legislative assembly of
Utah will conveno on Monday. Jnnu-
try 13th. At a cnucus of the repub
lican mem here of each lions to bo
held on the evening of January Uth
the of fleers nf snch house v.111 bo de
termined. The legislature U ovor
khelmlnKl)' rjnihlloi.ii lu both of
lu branches, though the democratic
membership has Increased over that
of recent sessions. In tho senate
there will be sixteen republicans
nnd two democrats, and In tint hous
thirty-one republicans and fourteen
democrats. '
Tho majority has not yet prepar
ed n program of legislation nnd may
not do so. However, an effort lll
bo made to write Into law thu
pledges of the republican platforms.
A thorough revision of tho election
laws of the state Is bolleved to bo
probable. Tho plan for this rovlslou
Includes thobollshmont of tho vot
ing machines, a corrupt practices
net aimed nt campaign work on
otcctlon day, thu substitution of the
socallod "short ballot" and a gen
eral direct primary. There Is also
a proposal for the repeal of tho law
providing for thu commission form
of government f" municipalities.
Ituii'iiiie Uhv He Moii.
Thorough revision of tho revonuo
laws of tho stato is promised. This
revision Is hampered somowhnt by
tho fact that tho peoplo at tho re
cent election fulled to adopt uny ot
tho proposed constitutional amend
ments with reforenco to rovonuo and
taxation. Tho stnto board of equali
zation makes sovernl recommenda
tions for bettering the tuxutlon sys
tem of tho stnte, the most impor
tant of which provide for the as
sessing of nil taxable property nt Its
actual ensh valuation, nnd for a
change in tho method of distribut
ing tho proooods of tho tnx on pub
llo utilities among tho various coun
tlos ot tho state.
Two proposed amendments to the
federal constitution will come be
fore tho stnte legislature for ratifi
cation. Ono Is tho proposod Incomo
tax amendmont, ratification of whlc
was defeated two years ago, and
tho othor Is tho proposed amend
ment providing for tho direct elec
tion of United States'senators.
Women Ask legislation.
The women's clubs of the state
are behind several bills wh ch will
bo Introduced In tho legislature.
Among theso are a mothers' pension
bill, a bill for the raodlcal examina
tion of all applicants for marriage
licenses, a bill for the creation of
positions as Inspectors to bo filled
by women to make more certain the
enforcement of the child labor law
nnd tho nliw-hour law for women,
nnd a bill providing for a minimum
wage soalo for women.
Governor Spry will ask for the
enactment of a law directing that
tho proceeds derived from the oper
ation of tho Inheritance tax law go
Into the stato capltol fund It Is
likely that thoro will bo a largo
bond Issue authorized for the pur
poso of pcrmnnonl road construction
and Improvement. Appropriations
for tho entertainment of the Nation
al Kducnttonnl association fh Bait
l,nko City next summer and for the
ndeounto representation of the re
sources ot tho stato nt the Panama
Pacific exposition to bo held In Han
Krnnclsco In 191C will bo asked.
New County Proposed.
Citizens of Wasatch and Uintah
counties will nsk for tho ennctmeul
of n law permitting lite rormauon
of a now county out of portions of
theso two counties. An nmondmonl
to tho constitution giving tho legis
lature iiQwcr vo enact such a law
failed of adoption at tho recent elec
tion. However, It Is believed by
some thnt tho legislature Jms this
power desplto this fact, mid an ef
fort will be made to secure the I
passage of such n bill.
Another proposed constitutional
nmondmonl which tolled of passage,
ut tho recent election was that em
powering tho stato to socuro Inter
est on public funds. Derplto the
failure of tho peoplo to adopt the
proposed amendment It Is argued
liiut tho legislature may enact a
law making 11 possible for the atato
to collect Interest on theso funds
nnd a bill having this object in
view will bo Introduced.
