Show AT THE CAPITOL. Salt Lake City. The income tax bill for educational purposes was passed by the house at the session of March 8. This bill was prepared by a special spe-cial school revenue .committee which the house appointed to solve the school tax question so that the less populous sections of the state would not be taxed in greater amounts than the more populous sections. The proposal to redistrict the legislative legis-lative districts of the state was killed by the house on March S. Unanimous consent was given the appropriations committee on March 8 to introduce two appropriation bills. They provide an approriation for the state to buy some Hatchtown claims and to reimburse the school fund, which will suffer a loss, through the sale of irrigation bonds, the constitution constitu-tion providing that the school fund cannot be made to suffer a loss. Under a suspension of the rules Senator Stringhain introduced a bill amending the present budget law so as to provide that the legislature may not consider bills carrying appropriation during the first thirty days of the session ses-sion unless the budget has been acted upon by both houses before that time |
