the Eighth school district are preparing 8
programme which will be rendered next
Tuesday. Parents and friends are cor
daily invited.
People living on the street between the
Coop and the depot would do well to see
that their gates are kept closed these dark
nights, as those opening on the outside are
very dangerous, and passers-by may meet
with severe injuries by coming in contact
with them.
The persons who have the coming con-
cert for the benefit of the academy in hand
are laboring very energetically to make it
a success. The present indications are
that it will be the greatest musical treat
we ever had, and those who are willing to
spend their time in so good cause should
have the hearty support and patronage of
the whole community.
| Messrs. Arthur Stayner, Elias Morris
and others, of the Utah Sugar company,
| held meeting here on Thursday in the
interest of the sugar business. Kaysville
has the best soil and the best facilities for
growing the sugar beet, as proven by the
| analysis of the beets raised by Mr.. Joseph
King, of the Second ward, of any place in
the territory, and it is very probable the
sugar industry will be established in our
midst.
Tie question has been asked: Is the
course pursued by our city council in re-
fusing to grant license for a saloon to par
ties who have applied, a wise one ? The
above question is very difficult one to
comment on, but is worthy the considera-
ton of each Individual. A short time ago
we were entirely free from influences of
this kind, but to-day it is not so. We have
saloon on the south of US, we are threat
ened with one on the north of us, and right
| in our immediate neighborhood we have a
1r.a fohl iehF oh,
drinks as ginger brandy, bitters of all
kinds, which inebriate, corrupt and de-
stroy, are sold, and drank as freely as
wines, liquors, etc, in licensed liquor
saloon. While we do not wish to see a place
of this kind in our midst, still we do not ap-
prove of seeing its glaring lights saying to
the unwary passers by ''do drop in, with
out some revenue and some benefit for the
whole. We admire the course that has
been pursued by our city council in refus-
ing to grant liquor license, but when we
see patent medicines used as liquors, and
individuals intoxicated through imbibing
too freely of the same, it is time course
be pursued that will meet the emergency.
If the time has arrived when a
saloon in Kaysville has become necessary
evil, we would favor high licensed one so
that the revenue may be used for the i'm
provement of our streets and highways.
If the parties should refuse to pay high
license, but continue in the sale of patent
intoxicating medicines then some measure
should be adopted to stop the traffic in
these drugs, and if we must have drinking
saloon, let the proprietors pay, as ell other
saloon keepers pay, the license that is re-
quired by law. It is better to see saloon
in our midst that is paying legitimate
license, than to see patent medicine
agency, where men and boys can go and
drink and then exhibit themselves on the
streets as good walking advertisements for
patent medicine firm.
A shocking accident occurred last Sun
day to Mrs. Terry, wife to Abraham Terry
1t appears the unfortunate lady had gone
out to milk her cow, and as she entered
the shed it gave way, one of the beams
falling across her neck and crushing her to
the ground. A little girl who was staying
with her hearing the noise came to her as
sistance, but finding she was unable to
release her, ran and procured the assist
ance of two men who happened to be near
by, and they with difficulty raised the
beam high enough to get the poor lady
from under it. She was found to be dead
when released from her awful position,
her neck having been broken by the falling
of the beam across it. She was young
woman and leaves one child ten months
old. Her remains were taken to Ogden for
burial. K.
