Mr. McMUlin tried to make arrangements with the commissioners to settle. but they declined as they must look to me for the ahortage and 1 am looking to the bonding company." Last night Mr. Barton came to the defense of Mr. McMUlin, declaring that he was positive there was nothing in the alleged shortage which could be traced to fraud or falsification. He deplored the fact that McMUlin had made the offer to make good any possible shortage and explained that he had demanded of the auditors, Goddard, Abbey A Company, instances of specific shortages and suggested am audit of the dally balances of the tax redemption department.

This rewilution passed the senate unanimously, after its introduction by the senate Judiciary committee on order of the senate. The chairman of that committee, Senator David Jenson, and Senator Edward Southwlck, member of the committee, will prepare the argument. The law requires that the legislative committee preparing arguments on these amendments shall submit them to the secretary of state within ninety days after the adjournment of the legislature. Since the last legislature adjourned, officially. March 10, the committees named have until June 8 In which to file their statements. Senators Dern and Peters are preparing an argument also on the proposed tax amendment, and will file it early this week, according to present plans. , Dern Files Argument. The argument In favor of tlie propos-- il constitutional amendment Increasing the compensation of members of the lexlaia. ture, as filed yesterday by Senator Dei n, chairman of the committee, of which Senator Peters Is the other member, reads; "The constitution of Utah provides that of the legislature shall receive nymbers not to exceed $4 per day for their service. in 1895, when the constitution was adopted. It may have been possible to live at the leading hotels of Bait Lake for 84 per day, but since that time hotel rates have greatly Increased, and citizens who serve In the legislature sustain a direct financial loss. "If a citizen gives the state hIsTtm. ability and experience without anv compensation he does hla full duty, and it is unfair to require him to make a monetary contribution besides, as he must do when the state doea not pay him enough to cover his actual and necessary expenses. The state asks certain of Its citizens te serve without pay .as member of the boards of the various educational and other public Institutions, but It always' pays all the expenses Incident to th performance of their duties. There. Is no reason why members of "th"leglslature should be treated with less consideration. FTee service Is th most that the state ' has any right to ask or expecL Expenses Exceed Pay. . Indeed, there are valid oblectlons to the practice of asking legislators to serve without pav, as they do when thrir per d!em only suffice toover their expenses The principal one is that It restricts this o Wealth public service to the Is by no mean the sole teat of abilitv, a of narrow certain kind. that A except persqp may be a capable and useful legislator without having the faculty of making money.
