MATTER OF SPEAKING ON STREETS AGAIN UP After threshing out the question of allowing al-lowing street speaking In Salt Lake, tho city commission concluded yesterday that such porm.'sslon might bo granted, if in the opinion of the chief of police, the applicant was justly entitled to It. Henry W. Lawrence, commissioner of finance, brought up the question by asking ask-ing what had become of the application of the local Socialist party for permission to hold street meetings. He declared that any person should be allowed to speak on tho streets if they conducted themselves them-selves properly. It was ilnally decided that the matter mat-ter should be left to the dlscertlon of the commission and In the event that an emergency arises undor which the applicant appli-cant would not have opportunity to apply to the commission for permission, then the chief of police shall be the arbiter. Mayor Park promised to report next Monday upon the application of the Socialists.
