CHARTER OF GREAT SALT LAKE CITY AND ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS OF THE CITY COUNCIL WITH CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES AND ORGANIC ACT OF THE TERRITORY OF UTAH

1860WRCAM55487Salt Lake City: Deseret News Print 1860. xxiiixliv756pp. Modern half morocco and marbled boards spine gilt. Small dampstains to titlepage and gutter of first few leaves; light mostly marginal tideline near top corner of text throughout and in lower corner of last several leaves. Occasional creasing or wrinkling a few occasional pencil marks. Very good. The first edition of the new charter of Salt Lake City passed on January 20 1860 and an uncommon imprint from the press of the Salt Lake City Mormon-owned newspaper the DESERET NEWS. In the two years previous to this new charter the whole of the Mormon community in Utah was recovering from the Utah War which saw an increased United States government influence and presence in the territory. The present work includes a membership list of the Salt Lake City Council lists of city officials four major sections and indexes to those four sections. The first prominent work printed here is the United States Constitution with the twelve Amendments passed up until that time. This work was not printed in the 1859 edition of the 1851-53 Salt Lake city charter but is added here. The second major work is the "Act to Establish a Territorial Government for Utah." This act which provided for the establishment of all aspects of the Utah government and delineated the boundaries of the territory was first published in 1852. The third and most important text printed here is the "Charter of Great Salt Lake City" beginning on page xxix. This is the first edition of the new city charter for Salt Lake City presumably passed in response to the changes wrought by the Utah War. The Charter is comprised of "An Act Incorporating Great Salt Lake City" and is laid out in eighty- eight sections and invests most of the power for regulating the city in the City Council. This differs from the earlier city charter which was comprised of only fifty-three sections most passed in 1851 with five passed in 1853. The penultimate section of the present work section 87 repeals and replaces the earlier charter. The charter sets the boundaries for the city and gives the city the authority to control all manner of issues related to city management and maintenance such as organizing the city setting electoral guidelines for city officials eminent domain business licensing and regulation public cleanliness providing police and fire departments regulations for tobacco and liquor and many others. Section 26 even outlaws "playing at ball" or flying a kite. The fourth and longest section of the work is entitled "Ordinances of Great Salt Lake City" and consists of fifty-eight specific rules regulating elections creating city offices naming the streets dividing the city into wards providing for water defining police duties collecting taxes creating schools governing distribution of liquor regulating city quarantine setting penalties for criminal activity and more. Interestingly Section 3 of the Ordinances prohibits any officer or soldier of the United States Army from holding office or voting in Salt Lake City unless they live in the city; the Mormon population in Salt Lake City seems to have had enough of the American military by 1860. A short Appendix prints six more ordinances passed later in 1860 including one governing the discharge of firearms and another stipulating a $100 fine and six months in jail for operation of a brothel. Revised ordinances for the city would be published in 1875 and amendments would be added to the city charter beginning in 1862 but the latter essentially remained in effect until statehood in 1896. Not in Flake or Draper. OCLC records just twelve institutional copies. A scarce work under-represented in Mormon bibliographical literature. SABIN 75840. OCLC 2872974.
