Subscription Price: $2.00 per Year. Telephone 365 EDITORIAL Why the Reduction? The Ogden chamber of commerce has received a telegram from Senator Reed Smoot in reply to a telegram re- garding the reinstatement of the $550,000 appropriation for the Ogden federal building addition, which has been reduced to $365,000, It would be interesting to know just how it happened that this appropriation came to be rrduced when Utah was represented on the finance committee of the United States senate by Senator Smoot aa chairman and Senator William II. King as member of that committee. In the telegram from Senator Smoot there is no reference made as to the reduction of the original appropriation. Surely Ogden should receive most liberal consideration at the hands of her senators as she gave majorities to both when running for office. Senator Smoots telegram follows: "Congress has authorized the appropriation of three hundred sixty-fiv- e thousand dollars, for federal thou building at Ogden. Seventy-fiv- e sand dollars has already been appropriated. Within about CO days I will be able to advise you as to approximate date actual construction work will begin. Am behind this movement and shall do everything I can to expedite same, although Ogden by law will be required to take its turn with other citiea. Reed whole-hearted- ly Smoot. Wyoming Points the Way , Politics are politics over in Wyoming. A few days ago, when it became necessary for Governor Frank C. Emerson to appoint a successor to United States Senator Francis E. Warren, deceased, he took the matter up with the Republican State Central committee; that body recommended tlie appointment of Patrick C. Sullivan, and Governor Emerson' has made the appointment as recommended. Now that we have a new chairman at the head of the Utah Republican State Central committee, it is to be hoped that he and the central committee will adopt the course pursued in Wyoming, which, by the way, is the course pursued in most states. The state central committee is made up of members from each county in the state, elected by delegates in convention assembled. These men ure the legal representatives of the party, and it is only through their efforts that the party is built up in votes, dignity and respect. This being true, it is the province of the committee the duty of the committee to make recommendation as to federal and state appointments, and not leave these appointments to the choice of state and federal officials. The first Utah Republicans know about appointments is when they read the announcements in the newspapers. Dog Still in the ' Manger At the meeting of the four Colorado basin states which is held in Denver this week the delegates are doing just whst upper being Utah many Utahns confidently expected they would do throw monkey wrenches in the wheels in the hope of holding up the building of the Boulder dam. Notwithstanding continued opposition of Utahs water storage commission, the Utah legislature reaffirmed the Colorado river pact at its last session and made the building of the Boulder dam possible. By its action the Utah legislature thought the way was made clear for the building of the dam,' but it seems not, as the water commission representatives have again opened the fight. In his argument in Denver, W. W.

The Proof of the Pudding ia needed for Jf any justification the trend of the elpctric industry toward centralization and mass production, it is found in the improved service at lower rates' that is now provided in most localities. Electricity lights the home, cooks the food, furnishes heat for the iron, motive power for the vacuum cleaner, and does a multitude of other tasks. It is always at the beck and call of anyone. Its production and distribution necessitates the building of plants and facilities costing billion. To keep it going demands the services of hundreds of thousands of people. Yet the average electric bill is but a little over three dollars a month; less than the average person spends for candy or tobacco. The electric industry is controlled by laws and regulatory bodies working in the public interest. The companies, and their executives, know that their future success is dependand they ent on the public good-wi- ll are giving every effort to honestly deserve it, through improved service at a lower coat. . Protect the Ninety Per Cent Our automobile accident record ia one of America's greatest problems. Last year 27,500 people were killed in auto accidents, of whom 16,000 were pedestrians. During last August the average daily toll was 91 lives a day the highest in our history. It is said that 90 per cent of. accidents are caused by leu than 10 per cent of driven. Until we strengthen and enforce our laws, to protect the competent driver by excluding the reckless from the highways, our terrible annual toll of automobile deaths must continue to increase. . How much longer shall the careless, reckless or incompetent driver be allowed free use of the public highways, a menace to the lives and property of every other motorist? ever-increasi- ng 246S Kiescl Avenue $1.00, the City cations on file in the office of invited are bids sealed Ergineer, And received t be will and work said for the office of the City georiw " Jlw City Hall at Ogden, Utah, De o'clock a. m. on the 11th day of furwill bidder Each 1929. camber, nish his own design (or the bridge, complying with State Highway specifications.
