Utah, Nov. 2, 181L : To correct any misleading statements that have been circulated recently, the City Council, at an adjourned session held Nov. 8th, 1911, ordered the following communications published in this paper: November 2, 191. Hob. T. J. Lewis, Mayor of Coalville, Coalville, Utah. ( Dear Sir: In answer to your inquiry OYer the telephone on Tuesday: If I have understood you eorreetly, your Inquiry relates to the making up .of the. official ballot for the coming city election in Coalville. You stated, as I understood you, that a regular Republican ticket had been nominated by convention, and a regular Democratic ticket had been nominated by convention; tHat in addition there had been a further ticket called a Citizens ticket, which was presented by certificate under the provisions of Section 825, Compiled Laws of Utah, 1907, as amended by Chapter 13, Laws of Utah, 1909, and as further amended by Chapter 126. Laws of Utah, 1911. I understood from you that the candidates for office named on the Citizens'' ticket was nominated otherwise than by convention or committee, and as provided under the provisions of Section 825, above mentioned; that the certificate of nomination provided for under this section was signed by sixty of the voters of the municipality, and from your statement it, further appears that the persons nominated by this certificate, and on what is termed the Citizens ticket, are the identical persons nominated, and for the same offices appearing upon the not be printed upon the effieial ballot or upon any party ticket, aa the nomineea of any political par- ty or voters, and that the name or names of the persons nominated in the certificate, will not be printed upon the official ballot under the name or device adopted in the certificate. It is hereby made tbe duty of the officers making up the official ballot to erase from the certificate any name or names of nominees contained in such certificate that would otherwise appear printed upon tbe official ballot as the party ticket. Tbe certificate there mentioned is the certificate of nomination provided for under the provision of Beetion 825, and whieh, in the ease of the Citizens' ticket was signed by sixty of the voters of the eity. The foregoing quotation from Section 825 is not entirely clear. It 4 not, to my mind, express the intention of the legislature aa clearly as tbe pro- iwKins of Section 825 before the second amendment, and as found in Chapter 13, Laws of 1909. 1 quote from Serf ion 825 as found in Chapter 13, Laws of 1909, as follows: Such certificate shall also contain a statement by the voter that the name or name of the person or persons nominated in the eertifi- - , cate will not be printed npoa the official ballot or upon any party Democrat:-- ' ticket ticket, as the nominee of any political party or voter, and that' the From a further eonversatioa had name or names of the persons nomwith you yesterday over the telephone, inated in the certificate will not and from a eonversatioa had this morn-- i be printed upon the official ballot over' the telephone with the City or upon any party ticket poles Recorder, Mr. Peterson, I am farther the names of the peraonc are plaeed informed that n mass meeting was on the official ballot under tbe nailed by eertain citizens for the purname or deviee adopted . 1 ' tbe pose of nominating the Citizens tickcertificate.

I sincerely ho' And ewwwoneer ; Gentlemen: The city marshal today served a notice on me from the recorder of this eity, that Coalville p wae delinquent on merchandise and buteher shop licensee ft otn the Slat day of July, 1910, and also a notice to George Beard danee ball, that I was delinquent on the dance tall license from November 81 1910, if these licensee were not ajd that or before November 6th on paid p and next that the Coalville George Beard dance ball woold be dealt with according to th ordinance of CoalvlllCity. Regarding thte matter I will say that in the early part of this year I examined caeh laeu of tbo Coalville Timee" for the itemised financial yearly" report of the affairs of Coal vllle City which tbe LAW says mast be mad yearly a that the CITIZENS might knew the send! tion of the City aad what its OFFICERS are doing. I have repeatedly asked the PROPER OFFICERS when the Cltisens might expect tbe report,' and have 'always been Informed that It would soon be It is now over ten published. months after the date roqatred by LAW for tbe publishing of the City statement. Yoar recorder informed me that be had made tbe financial yearly report for Coalville City and that, that was all he knew about it. In the month of April of this year I personally examined the stubs of the License and Receipt books, p and found that Coalville and on had time, myself always paid previous to April of this year, but I notice that OTHERS In tbe lity were doing business and FAYING NO LICENSES, and again ethers were delinquent and v far as I could find out ho stops were being taken tooollect the delinquent licenses. I also found that up to April, 1911, the Coalville p and myself had paid promptly our bills for Electric current as eoou as we received the bills. IanuJnfornietmhat-larg- e bills have been allawetTto run lor electric lights and no steps were taken to collect these bills, a they become due, I also found that other Citicena were holding RECEIPTED ELECTRIC LIGHT BILLS for wiiich they themselves admit that THEY Co-o- that you will or veil every citisen Mt' sue . s to . ii a - f I found that the Marshal se of City had been collecting oil-vil- le licen- during the Winter and fepring qt 1910 and 1911, from the SHOWS which played at the Coalville opera house and that on April 28th, 1911, $30.00 of that amount' bad not at ...
