| Show AEFONYI MUST GO < The Work of the Greatest of i Prestidivitateurs i THE COUNTY SAYS MI TOO All of which Means that the Architectwill be Paid Without Doing the Work Whore tho Taxes Go Apponyi must gel I Tho fiat has gone forth I The city council and the county court have seen eye to eye and the man who had the courage of his convictions who dared w say wuat no ana wnat luougnt VOte for whom he pleased is not the man that is wanted to construct the city and county building The organ of the city council will now have a chance to stultify itself by the charge that the engaging of Apponyi a architect of the city and county building was accomplished before the present city council came into office But it will hardly dare do that again because the agreament or contract or what you will is signed by M K Parsons acting mayor and attested to by Thomas B Shannon deputy city recorder I re-corder Well Apponyi has been bounced I These words were addressed to a prominent promi-nent citizen last evening There is nothing astonishing about that was the reply The fact of the matter is simply this The members o the present city council never intended that Apponyi should construct the building He didnt vote to suit them Therefore they have no use for him neither have they for any one else who doesnt vote straight Liberal and ask no questions And lot me tell you further that the city and county buildings will never be erected on the pres ent site There is a syndicate at work now to pull it away from First South to a neighborhood in which its projectors are interested and unless a block is put in their wheels they will succeed in doing it What does it matter to a man who has some real estate to dispose of if the city and county will have to pay for the excava tion and the solid foundation that has been put inl 2 Not much Tho bouncing of Ap ponyi is but tho commencement of the game A legal gentleman was seen a few minu tes later Have you read the contract made bo tween the city and county and Architect Apponyi he was asked Yes What is your opinion not as a guarantee of good faith but for publication I 1 should say that Apponyi can make the city pay liim every cent that he could have claimed had he superintended the construc tion of the building I I looks as i tho city was in for it I it gets out of tho muddle without sink ing 20000 it will bo doing well And for this we pay our taxes THE CITYS KICK The following letter was recent submitted sub-mitted to the county court Hon G W Bartch probate judge Salt Lake county DEAR SIR The following resolution
