The subject of new amendments to the count Itutlou bas been consld-cre- d to some extent. Four ques-tions have been under consideration. These are: Affecting triul by jury, schools In the Ave cities of the first and second clauses, qualifications for membership In the legislature, and prohibition. The assortment of subjects la interesting, but none of tbcin hng much to do with Uiatlon. Two taxation bills h&ve appeared in the legislature. One has been Introduced In both bouses, It Is tbe state tax commission's personal In-- . conic tax measure. Tbe commission forwarded It to tbe legislature Fri-day, January l'l. It appeared for the first time in the bill files of tbe legislators in printed form Monday, January 21. Another bill. from: tbe' ' same commission was submitted to tho legislature Monday. If it does not make better program than tbe first. It will not be In the bill flies until some time in February. There are at lenst five more bills to come before tbe state tax commission, Tbe other taxation bill Is a mea-sure dealing with penalties for false or Incomplete reports of prop-erty assessed. It wag Introduced by Senator Taut II. Uont of Kectley. It bas been printed, but so far has not received mocb attention from the committee so far as announ-cer Monday was tbe fifteenth day of a session of sixty days, so that at the close of the day one-four- of the present session was passed. Bo fur the legislative mill has ground out and completed one sen-ut- e resolution, which provides a '" messenger for the governor; one house bill and a bouse memorial to congress. The house bill spends $50,000 of the stute's money for the expenses of the legislature ; the memorial favors the Jones matern-ity and child old bill, which the national senate passed without the urge, from the Utuh legislature ,nd which is now before the nation-al bouse. This memorial awaits the signature of Governor Dern. .. , The first quarter of the session finds twenty-si- x bills and resolu-tions introduced in tbe bouse. If ' ' past experience is a guide the total number will be about ten times that number. In tbe senate there are eighteen bills and resolutions also A small part of what may be Of tbe eighteen, one, ns noted, has en disitosed of ; the remainder are ; ill alive, and two have reached the ienate second reading calendar. I'hey must be debated two times In be senate and run tbe gauntlet, of he entire boose process before hey become laws. Tbe house, at present, has pims-sslo- n of no senate bill. The scu-te has one bouse foeusure, ; and , mother is on its way to tbe sen-- tte, having been passed by the ionc, but not yet appearing on tbe enate floor. Eight senate bills lave not yet been ordered printed, seven are in committee. House committees still have sev-enteen of the twenty-si- measures " presented to that body. Of the seventeen, filve are resolutions or : memorials and twelve are bills. Of tbe six remaining, one, as noted, is on its way to the senate, one Is In tbe senate, one bas been sent to tbe , governor, one signed, while two are already dead. Of the two one was withdrawn by the author, while the committee drew a substitute for th other. . Of srieetal Interest is the joint resolution Introduced in the sen-ate by Knox Patterson of Moub which would submit to tbe voters of Utah the question of , whether they desire to repeal the section which writes prohibition into the constitution of Utah. The section tho Moab senator would repeal was approved by the people iu tbe general election of November 5, 1918, and became ef-fective January 1, 1919. Utah, however, bad state-wid- e prohibition before that time, hav-ing passed the law practically in its present form in the legislature of 1917. Prohibition was effective state-wid- e in Utah before the fa-mous eighteenth amendment was adopted. Senator Patterson does not pro- - pose to alter the present prohlb--" ition laws of Utah. The resolution would simply take prohibition out of the basic law of the state. . This, the seuator from Moab points out, leaves tbe qusctlon en-tirely in the hands of the legisla-ture." "Those persons," be said, "who supported the constitutional amend-ments of last November, which ' relieved tbe legislature of limita-tions covering taxation, and who claimed that tbe legislature could and should be trusted with its en-larged powers, should rally to the : support of this resolution. It simp-ly makes the constitution more flex-ible, and permits the legislature to enact a law in beeping with the needs of tbe occasion. It places the'1 control in the hands of the legist-tore- , 4 I THE FEATHERHEADS Baiting the Green-eye- d Monster S'WEU.I SK VW ? f OU IM OAt YE- U- IT OUGHT TO " BUT WHAT I LACK 1M --SyrZT JUST TO WALK BAC f new hat- - 1 (yoouke it, feu! boom mrs. heneberqv ur , ( make (JTz! , anifoqtm hm fqont of hem- e- ITiS SURE A HU- M- J TOOi-ANIC- E HAT UKE iWj; ) ( JiQUAMTlTY! - ' J V'J I BERRVS HOUSE MAKE SAM iOWGEfllFANNVv " i I OF COURSE I REALLY OOSHTyf V MAt CAUSE UE HASN'T AS MAW ; , i Along the Concrete P t T ' fONt AND SI l& SEVEN ANP FOUR .; C AND TWO- - IS THIRTEEN, ' " VL k6 TO SEND THESE PLATES gUSg?g-- TAESE PLATES OH 1 The Home Censor H WLp FREAK HIS ' !lbfj' flLJiL 55?"
