THE SALOON QUESTION.

The liquor question in Utah is a subject
that win demand the serious attention of
our citizens in the near future; indeed, it
demands it now. In the past Utah has
been more free from the evils of the liquor
traffic than any other state or territory in
the American union. Our people have had
and still have an enviable reputation for
temperance which we are anxious to see
maintained; but il it is maintained, some
steps must be taken to stop the multiplied
ton eof saloons in our midst. and re-
duce the traffic in this liquid damnation
business to a minimum. A short time ago
the Utah Enquirer published some figures
relative to the number of saloons in the
city of Provo and the probable amount of
money expended for iutoxicants. The fig
ures presented on that occasion were alarm
ing, and of character to arouse the atten-
ton of the good people of Utah to this
whole liquor business. According to the
representation of the Enquirer there are
eleven saloons in Provo and two drug
stores licensed to sell liquor; or, putting
the population of that city at $500, there
is one saloon for every 500 inhabitantsl
Lie ooloo VI luc odlOOuS range IrOu
about 5000 to $4,000. giving an average of
Sl1,50o and total of Sl2656o. The sale of liquo,
OF the two licensed drug stores, will perhaps
reach 5000, and of the unlicensed drug stores
sl,5o1 giving a grand total of liquor sold in
Provo city Of sl35, 00o
The expenses Of the saloons are heavy OF
the eleven saloons in the city, nine pay alicense
Of $500 per quarter, or 81, 200 per annum, making
El08o0. The other two saloons each pay an an
nual license of $1,000, making total saloon Ii
cense of 800. The two drug stores each pay
license of $50 per quarter, or 5000 per annHm
giving total of 81, 200, which added to the sa-
loon license, makes grand total of ST., 900 paid
In liquor licenses. The saloon rents range
from s25 to SIPS per month, giving an average Of
BIS and total Of sS25 per month or $500 pc
rear. AS rule the services OF two bar teuders
are required in running saloon. The propri-
etor, or one of the proprietors, generally fills
the place OF one, and another is hired at
salary at an average of &c., Allowing 500 pei
month for the proprietor, we have for the
eleven saloons OF the city a total salary accoun

COLONEL MERRITT, the city attorney, de-
clares that the city cannot convey title to
Old Fort square, the land having been
dedicated to the use and benefit of the peo-
pie as park. Some members of the coun-
Gil propose to completely ignore the cor
poration's legal adviser and sell the square,
in spite of him, the resolution authorizing
the sale instcucting the attorney to formu-
late the necessary papers. Of course the
s lie will not go through in the face of the
law and the almost unanimous opposition Of
the taxpayers, but if it were to proceed il
would be interesting to read the papers
which Colonel MERRITT would draw up.

failure " the Government ~ give
ins value In return for thels Natcr
taxes. II appears that some mistakes
were made In the past, with regard
to the Waikiki supply Of water,
which would never have beer known
rs mistake. had II not been for the
prolonged drought. under which the
people living ia town have al.o been
visited With gri,vous lacN of the
necessary lluid. One erro. was in
cutting of the supply formerly bad
from the artesian well on Mr.. &. A.
Browns property, 1t has vexed the
people TO see the copious stream irri'
eating rice patches which might have
saved them from the existing depri-
walton. Another error was in allow
ing delay to occur 10 the filling of q
contract for water pipes, to be laid
for an artesian system in the Park
district. These pipes are now adoat
on the bark H. Haokfeld, due before
the end Of this month. Both errors
were due no doubt,to the taking for
granted, from theI continuity of the
heavens favors for several years,
that the day of thoughts had gone
forever.
1t is with great satisfaction now
that we are able to note, as had been
privately communicated the other
day, that the Government is moving
in the matter of giving Waikiki its
due water privileges. The Minister
of the Interior is calling for tenders
to close Friday next, for the boring
of well to supply that great suburb
with water. In this connection it
should be taken into full considera-
ton before the next Legislature,
whether it is not advisable and even
necessary to sink artesian wells in
different parts of the town proper, as
safeguard against the recurrence
Of any such scarcity as has lately
approached the gravity of an abso-
lutte water famine to large proper
ton of denizens. SO poorly have the
water resources existing been hus-
banded, and so unsatisfactory in
many cases has been the dispensing
of the privileges, that there appears
TO be something of cruel irony in the
official notice to holders of privileges
to pay their rates in advance, with
out any security that the payers will
receive more than m0ckery of value
in return for their money. Such a
danger as has lately threatened the
community, and even still hovers
overhead, must be averted for the
future. Whether the assurance of a
plenty of water is to come from ar
tesian wells or from any improvement
in the present storage system, one
thing the people must insist on is
hat the matter will not for another
period 60 unrectified.

Work.

A loafer. The very worst name that can be applied to a young man. And it is the most inexcusable thing in the world too.
 You must work in this world if you expect to keep up vith the process sion. Whether you handle a pick or hoe, clerk or book-keeper, farm or merchandise, digging ditches or edit ing paper, and so on into every vo- cation of life you must work.
 Look around you and you will see what has been accomplished by those who have worked and are still work | ing. You will find that the men who are best able to live the rest of their lives without work are the ones who have worked the hardest
 Don't be afraid of killing yourself with work. It is beyond your power | to do that. Men cannot work so hard as that on the sunny side of thirty, | They die sometimes, but it's because they quit work at 6 ?. m. and don't go home until , a. m. It's the inter val that kills. Work gives an appe- tito for meals; it lends solidity to your slumbers; it gIves the apprc- citation of holiday.
 There are young men that do not work, but the world is not proud of them. It does not even know their names; it simply speaks of them as old So-and-So's boys. Nobody likes them nobody hates them; the great 1 busy world doesn't even know that 1 they are here. So find cut what to be and do take off your coat and make dust in the world. The busier you are the less deyitry you will be apt to get into, the sweeter will be your sleep, the brighter and happier your holidays, and the better satis- fled will the world be with you.

HARRISON'S RECKLESS SQUAN
 DERING.

The Treasury Department has just issued statement of Federal re- ceipts and expenditures by fiscal years since 1856, which recalls in q most striking way the fact that cx- travagance has reached its high-wa- ter mark under the Harrison admin tration. From S242 4S3, ,O0O in 1885, the total expenditures have increased S315, 153, ,000 in 1891. Miscellanc- ous civil expenditures (exclusive of purchase of bonds or premiums) in- crease from S74, 1GG ,000 in 1886, to S110, ,04S, ,0O0 in 1891, with corre- spending increase in every Item of totals except in interest on the pub lie debt. The study of this compar- ison with the fiscal year 1887, under Cleveland, with the fiscal year 1891 under Harlson, will well repay the trouble:
