Show I ANNEXATION MATTER HELD IN ABEYANCE Residents of Section in Southern Por-j tion of the City Decide to Withhold With-hold Application. By a unanimous unofficial vote of the residents of that district lying Houth of Tenth South as far as Twelfth South and east of the Jordan river and as far as State Btreet on Third East, it. was decided last night at a meeting in the Burton district school that application appli-cation for annexation of the district to Salt Lake City should not yet be made to the city officials. The school building was filled to overflowing over-flowing and the many matters iii favor fa-vor of and against the proposition were put before the assemblage. A large majority ma-jority felt that the residents of the community were not ready at the present pres-ent timo for the annexation, owing -.to tho fact that in all probability certain improvements could not be given to-tho' district for some time and that tho residents res-idents themselves wonld have to undergo under-go taxation from the beginning. |
