EPHRAIM, SANPETE COUNTY,
Utah. December 8.

EPHRAIM, SANPETE COUNTY,
Utah, December 81
The DEMOCRAT is read in Ephraim by
many besides those who subscribe for the
paper, and it is surely winning it way in
the confidence of the people as a fearless
and outspoken exponent of right and JUS
tice to all. 1t is paper for the people,
and in the interests of the people it is
doing what every heightened journal
should aim to do. This is the universal
in Ephraim.
| A question has been agitating the
minds of the people here for some time
in regard to the whisky traffic Of this
place. 1t is question that our citizens
take to heart-fathers, mothers, sisters,
brothers, the wife of the drunkard, and
all good citizens cry out against it. We
have not one licensed saloon in the city
of Ephraim, yet there is no scarcity of
liquor; plenty can be cotton every day
in the week, and Sunday in particular;
one individual here especially,
who is noted as the Whisky
Chief of Sanpete, for years has laughed
at the efforts of the people of Ephraim to
stop his whisky traffic. No wonder that
the Tribune, short time since, spoke of
whisky seller of Ephraim who had ac-
cumulated some twelve thousand bushels
of grain. This is the truth; the Tribune
is correct on that point sure. It is we'll
known where our boys get the liquor;
it is well known that this indi-
vidual is dealing out his horrible stuff
called liquor to our sons, our fathers
our brothers, and that he has made many
a home wretched, and that he will con-
tinue to do so. The Whisky Chief is we'll
known in Sanpete county, and the won
der is, for it is wonderful, that this
man can run his business under the very
noses of out city fathers; and that he
does do it and has done it for years can
not be unknown to them; and here, Mr..
Editor, we would like to ask few ques-
tons in connection with this subject |
which we hope you will be kind enough |
to answer, so that all may know and |
profit thereby.
FIrst-What is the penalty for selling
liquor without revenue license?
Second-f a party, after selling LIQUOR
for one or two years without revenue
license, then takes out license, does
that exculpate him for the time he sold
without license?
Third-If person sells liquor for nine
months in the year without revenue
license and for fear of trouble he takes
'nt a license in the last quarter, for the
Whole year, including the nine months
which have passed, does this save him
rom liability for the nine months he sold
without license?
Fourth-Can person holding Gov
rnment otfice-a postmaster, for in
tance-sell liquor without revenue
cense, and draw salary from Uncle
am as postmaster?
Ii you will kindly answer the above S
uestions, you will much oblige t

BEFORE THE CITY's TRIBUNAL.
S. III. Lewis, the First Upon the
List, Convicted and Sentenced,
and of Course He Appeals.

Following the decision of Judge Zane
yesterday in the habeas corpus case of
Deputy Vandercook, remanding L. and
L. cases back to the Justices Court, S. H.
Lewis, charged with the crime of lewd-
ness, was at once arraigned before Police
Justice Speirs for trial. A motley crowd
of the riff-raf of the city congregated in
the small room of the City Hall to hear
the low. disgusting, though sensational
testimony, which is to convict on every
application. The complaint charging Mr..
Lewis with 'lewdness' with Fanny Da-
venport, on the 9th of last September,
was read to the defendant, who inter-
posed demurrer on the grounds that
the charge did not state sufficient facts to
constitute an ofense, and that the Justice
OF the Peace had no jurisdiction in this
class of cases.
The demurrer was overruled and trial
commenced. Royal B. Young, J. B.
Stewart and Officer Vim. Salmon were
sworn as witnesses. Royal Young showed
himself to be the prime detective in the
Lewis case, and no one knows how many
he has recorded when not adjusting
clocks, making ward calls and compiling
such reasonable sermons as enunciated
last Sunday.
Lewis being found guilty of "lewdness"
with Fanny Davenport, was sentenced to
three months Imprisonment in the
county jail and to pay fine of 5000. He
$500 bonds, with Bolivar Rob-
srts and A. Brixen as sureties, and took

About 2:30 o'clock G. E. Pearson came |

placed at $500 and signed by S. w.

company. Scip Kenner asked Mr.. Hol-
len several questions as to his property

answers given by Mr.. Holden it was ruled
hat he was not a responsible bondsman.

nent. In about half an hour he returned

them in their determination that the
Chinese must go. Taking this fact in
connection with the assertion of the Chinese
consul. which has not been disputed. that
the miners have their representatives on
the grand jury. it is easy to see why the
administration of justice need not be ex'
pected at the hands of the local authorities.
1t is doubtless true, also, that the majority
of the men engaged.in the massacre were
not citizens of the United States. and that
none of them were native born: but this

question is whether the Federal govern
ment shall or shall not punish crime COM

should be permitted to interfere.

A Rim Van Wrinkle Toad.

Wednesday while Bliss Smith was supern-
tending some work at Smiths mill. Scadouc,
his attention was directed to an unusual APP
pearance in the cross section OF a solid trunk
of rock maple they were engaged in saving
into hardwood plank. TO the ASTONISHING mt
of Mr.. Smith and the men they discovered
the saw had just sliced Oft the roof from the
residence of a toad that had taken up his
quarters in the heart of the tree. MIR. Smith
picked out the squatter with two nails. The
animal was perfectly soft, and appeared to
be in a semi-torpid condition. Unfortunately
however. while the men were examining this
ancient king of the maple, he fell down upon
the mill floor and rolled through an opening
in the boards. MIR. Smith hunted after him
for half an hour, but with no success. This
is a veritable Rip Van Wrinkle toad. The
maple tree was large and solid, with not a
sign of decay anywhere. The toad lay at its
very heart and must have been there for
many years. Think of it! Asleep for per-
hsps 100 years, and then seeing the light

A Man Shot By a Dog

Living on the Milford road, about two
miles below Milford. is a man named Cline.
For some time two large hawks which are
nesting on the mountain in that vicinity have
been carving of his chickens. and they have
made such inroads in his brood that he deter
mined to ex'erminate them On Saturday af-
ternoon ne observed the hawks circling about
his BARNARD, and thinking that he would be
afforded an opportunity to obtain shot, he
entered his house and procured an old musket
which he loaded and cooked. Going out in
his door yard he was waiting chance for a
shot when he noticed large and
strange dog going into the door of his house,
and not liking the appearance of the animal
he fastened in to drive it out. He found the
dog underneath table, and as it refused to
leave when shouted at he grasped his musket
by the barrel and attempted to poke the AMI
NAL out with the stock. This only enraged
the dog and it seized the stock of the weapon
in its teeth and gnawef away portion of the
wood. The fight between the dog and man
continued for some times until finally the
dog snawed away so much Of the stock that

at once after he had discovered its ugly and
