A Pretty F,ank Statement.

The Prohibitionists are kept between
two fires, but do not appear to be badly
scorched. The Brooklyn Standard
Union thinks they should vote for the
Democrats, while many Republicans
are railing at them for not voting with
their party, to which it is declared they
belong. But the cold water and hot
coffee men keep right on, regardless of
all tl.s clamor, and appear to be of the
opinion that they are not under obliga-
tions to either side, as they certainly
do not belong to any party except
their own. In Rhode Island theirs is
year to year, having more than doubled
its voting capacity in single twelve
month.-Newport (R. l. News, Aprils,

We shall give in this paper from time

question from leading old party papers
Of the nation. We shall not attempt
TO reply to their so-called arguments
against Prohibition, nor to rcfute all
the lies they can crowd into their
columns about Prohibition and the Pro-
bition party-it would be simply a
waste of valuable space. Bat these ex-
ccrpts will show to the reader the wide
discussion that is constantly going on
about regulating and curtailing the
evils, mark that, the EvILs-of the liquor
traffic Unconsciously, these very
defenders of the whisky busi-
mess are constantly reminding their
one, and out of all this agitation
will cone one of these days a grand
union at the polls of all the moral
forces Of the nation that will sweep the
last saloon into everlasting oblivion.
What VIII They Do withIt.
While the Democratic potion in
Iowa is pretty thoroughly defined, that
ef the Republicans is less certain.
There has always been Il large anti
prohibition element in the party, but
the prohibitiouists have always con-
trolled the state conventions and die
tated platforms The anti-prohibition
wing of the party is now stronger than
ever before, and it's leaders confidently
hope to control the next state conven-
tion and adopt platform which shall
in some manner relieve the party of the
burden of the responsibility for the
continuance of the prohibitory law.
Within the last few weeks the senti-
Jnent, as indicated in the press of the
state, has been developing very fast
in favor of such a course Indeed, the
Republican press of the state is now al
most unanimously in favor of ridding
the party of the responsibility which it
is felt has been thrust upon it by its
SDp0nents. This growth of sentiment
has been especially strong in the rural
eommunities.-St. Paul Pioneer-Press

From the En- envy.

Prohibition can never continue long
while the liquor thirst outlasts legisla-
lures and outlives the local option senti-
ment. More permanency might be made
possible, however, by attaching a gold
cure hospital to each polling booth

THE EVILS of the liquor traffic are SO
numerous and atrocious. and the conse-
quences SO terrible, that the license

DEEP CREEK on BUST.

w. E. Hubbard went out with his
committee yesterday. He said to a HER
sLD reporter last evening that he found
the citizens ready for business. Many
who had subscribed literally to the cop
per plant trippled their subscriptions to
the Deep Creek road. If this is kept up
the 5000 viii be forthcoming, as this
canvass is more carefully planned and
viii reach every man, woman and child
in the city.
Messrs. Mainland, Colborn, Leonard,
1oofbouroW, Davis, Dutton, Kelsey and
Hubbard, the committee to secure sub
scriptions from nonresident property
owners, are working hard on lists of own
ers and are preparing addresses and circu-
lars. 1t is probable that a committee will
be sent to Colorado and Montana to work
personally with owners of Salt Lake
land. The outsiders have joined cheer
fully always in work of improvements,
and it is felt that they will be sure to re-
spond freely to this call. They realize the
advantages of new railroads for western
cities, and 1t is believed that 500, 900 can
be secured from non-residents.
The committee OF 400 has issued q ring
ing address to the business men, showing
them by figures carefully calculated what
a fiattering investment it is. The women
are also TO be drafted into the service, or,
rather, asked to volunteer.

APPEAL TO THE WOMEN.

They Are Urged to Also Appoint a Com
mittee of 400.
To the Women of Salt Lake City:
Four hundred men have been selected
to raise subscriptions to the Salt Lake &
Pacific railway company to build a rail-
road from Salt Lake city to the Deep
Greek country.
In the efforts which at critical times in
the history of other western cities, have
proved to be the turning point, the
women have taken an active part and
been important factors.
1t has been suggested to US that we is
sue cali to the women of Salt Lake city
and vicinity, asking that they appoint a
committee of 400 women, to work IN the
same good cause.
In compliance with this suggestion we
respectfully ask the women to meet at the
large room of the Board of Trade build
ing on West Second South street at 4
O'Clock p. M, Monday, April "a, 1898.
The public spirit and energy recently
displayed by the men and women of Salt
Lake city in raising a bonus to the Salt
Lake city copper plant works has re-
suited in great good TO the city and in
many compliments from the outside
world. The word has gone out that Salt
Lake city in now exhibiting an energy
and progressive spirit worthy of its mag
nificent location and natural advantages.
We most respectfully urge upon you
the Importance of the success of this en-
terprise, and ask for your hearty cooper
atom.

DIME MUSEUM TRAPS.
The Authorities Should Guard The
Safety OF The PnbIic.
What Would Happen in Case of Fire?-A
Thousand People Could Not
Escape Through One
Crooked Stair
wav.

The rapid increase in the city of dime
museums makes it quite important that
the proper authorities look after the
safety of the people who frequent them.
Some of the most horrible casualties
have. occurred in the conversion of old
buildings into amusement halls without
adequate exits for the audience
in case of a panic. These catastro-
phies, where women and children
have been trampled to death and
those unable to escape roasted alive, are
terrible warning to the persons who
have the inspection of these buildings
and who give them certificates of safety.
There is comparatively little danger OF
any panic occurring in the dime mus
Gums and fake shows that are confined to
to the ground floor. The real danger oc-
ours in the double-deckers, where the
people are led up a narrow stairway. and
that crooked one, into narrow room
and there packed like sardines. Suppose
q fire should break out on the stage
in this garrety room where as many men,
women and children as can be Seaten on
the ground floor of the theatre are hud-
died together until every inch OF standing
space is occupied. Their only escape
would be the crooked stairway and an
other narrow way. A stampeded audi
ence always seeks to escape the way 1t
came in, and in case of a panic imagine
eight hundred or a thousand people
struggling to get out through stairway
with an elbow in it.
There was some pratense at making this
trap safe, but all the work was misdirec-
ted. The additional exits were placed on
the ground floor, where the danger is not
half so great as it is on the upper floor.
The city has a building inspector and
chief of the fire department. 1t is the
duty of these officials in some cities to in
spect the amusement places and report to
the city as to whether the owners have
complied with the ordinance.
But after all, it is the city council that
are the agents OF the people. In case Of
any loss of life through neglect of re-
curing the proprietors OF amusement
halls to place enough exits to make their
halls reasonably safe, the city council
will be held responsible.
No license should be issued to any
amusement hall until the building is as
safe as it can be reasonably made.
Salt Lake city does not want any
Brooklyn horror to haunt its future.
The time to prevent it is before the
catastrophe occurs.
The patrons of places of amusement
look to the city council for protection.

FORFEITED LEASE
BeuIah Beattie Secures Judgment il
Her Damage Case.
Malvina Bauchanp Sues the Salt Lake
Theatre for Damages-suits Brought
in the Lower Courts.

The suit of Beulah A. Beattie VS.. John
j. Bynon, administrator of the estate OF
Edward NJ. Byron, deceased, A. L. Will
hams and G. F. Jones, was taken up be-
fore Judge Bartch yesterday morning, in
accordance with a special setting made
some days ago.
The plaintiff asked for a. decree of the
court against the defendants for the
possession of certain premises, and for
damages in the sum of 81 600 Tor the al
legged wrongful detention of the same;
also, for 800 for each month which the
defendants occupied the premises after
the filing of the suit on May 10, 1892. In
q supplemental complaint, recently filed,
the plaintiff asked for attorneys fees in
the sum of $3.50 and for the further sum
of 81 100, alleged to be due for rent since
the fling OF the suit; also for 1920 80, al
legged Co be due for taxes, which the de-
PENDANTS had agreed to pay, but which
was not paid and which caused the prop
erty to be sold for such taxes.
The defendants held the property under
lease, and the plaintiff alleged that they
rendered the same void by the non-pay-
ment of rent.
Defendants denied all of the material
allegations of the complaint and alleged
Una6 tney nau expended S4UU In improving
the property. They further alleged that
the plaintiff had failed TO demand the
rent, thereby hoping to bring about
forfeiture of the lease, but that she had
waived such forfeiture by failing to de-
mand the rent. Defendants, in conclu-
sion, alleged that they were ready to pay
all sums due the plaintiff and ask to be
dismissed.
A jury was impaneled and the case pro-
ceeded with, Waldemar Van Colt and F.
S. Richards appearing for the plaintiff
and Thomas Marshall and ] II. Hurd for
the defendants.
The case reached the jury shortly after
5 O'Clock, and one hour later they re-
turned into court with a verdict. They
found the issues for the plaintiff and that
she was entitled to recover 1857 so as rent,
interest and attorneys fee; $1083. SO as
damages for the detention of the premises,
and further that the lease should be for
feited.

A SEVENTY DOLLAR RATE.

Agreement.

Messrs. Bennett and Lomax Reach an
Agreement.
The Worlds Fair rate is at last settled,
and the people of Utah now know what it
will cost them to make the trip. Mr..
Heintz of the Rio Grande Western last
evening received the following telegram
from Mr.. Bennett, at Denver:
''World's Fair rate will be $40. Hard
fight to get that
1t is understood that this rate is made
by agreement between Mr.. Bennett and
MIR. LON AK of the Union Pacific. 1t has
been given out that Mr.. Bennett has
favored $50 rate right along, and the
Union pacific side claim that Mr.. Lomax
advocated one fare rate, $3.50. This
being true, it is hard to understand why
these gentlemen could not get together on
a lower basis than $40. The people OF
this section had expected somewhat
lower rate, and will be disappointed.
1t is not known in this city what the
limit of the tickets will be.
