The Journal has this to say about the proposition: "Every citizen, or at least every taxpayer tax-payer of Logan, should attend the meeting to be held in his ward as per schedule published elsewhere in this issue for the discussion of the question ques-tion as to whether the city shall be bonded for the erection of an electric light plant. At these meetings the result re-sult of the council's investigations will be presented and estimates of cost given. Upon the expressions obtained will depend whether or not the question ques-tion shall be submitted to a vote. The subject is worthy of careful investigation, investiga-tion, without which it should be neither advocated nor condemned." The state chairmen having in charge ! the peace demonstrations, which are i to be held next Friday, are much en- j couraged over the great interest be- j ing manifested in the meetings. The ! presidents of the Kelief societies and Young Ladies' Mutual Improvement I associations are actively engaged in working up the interest, and the prospect pros-pect is for enthusiastic celebrations generally. It is desired that the appeal and general gen-eral instructions which were sent out by the state committee be read at each meeting, and that the "State Peace Poem," by Miss Josephine Spencer, published in The Herald Sunday, a w-eek ago, be read or recited. Also, that the following resolutions be voted upon: "Resolved, That American women assemble on May 15, 1SI02. for the purpose pur-pose of considering the fruits of war and the fruits of peace, and hold a demonstration in behalf of peace and arbitration. They commit themselves to adopting as their own that ideal of loving brotherhood which can be realized real-ized only by the cessation of international interna-tional hostilities. They repudiate war asa means of settling personal animosities. animos-ities. They accept as a corollary of the universal fatherhood of God the universal uni-versal brotherhood of man. "They send greeting to women of other countries who this day may he assembled to attest similar convictions.. They rejoice that women throughout the world are beginning to feel their responsibility for human conditions outside of the home as well as within its sacred walls. They ask all women everywhere to adopt as their own the task assumed by the International Council of Women, which is the application appli-cation of the golden rule to society, custom and law." |
