Quiet Utah Legislature Amid Slow Day and Quiet Sessions
The Utah Legislature saw a quiet day with little debate as the Cannon prohibition bill was referred to the senate committee after house passage. House bills on agricultural education and teacher standards drew some support, while the Pope irrigation measure and university funding bills moved with broad backing. Two sessions yielded little work, and the senate planned extra efforts to advance measures. Several bills were introduced in both houses, covering ditches, a state bounty fund, poison sales, trespass, contracts, and warehouse recordkeeping.
