LIQUOR SELLING TO MINORS.

Pleasant Grove, Utah, Dec. %, 1899.
Editor News"
Dear sr-Will you be kind enough 20
answer the following through the col
umns OF The News
We have an ordinance prohibiting
minors from entering saloons. Parents
give their sons who are under age per-
mits to enter these places. Can the law
be thwarted in this way, ana is Il not
fact that the owner OF the saloon ia
liable II he allows minors inside, even
though they may hold a permit from
their parents to enter the saloon? An
answer and comments on this will be
appreciated by
SUBSCRIBER.
4 correct answer to that would re-
aulre examination Of the city ordinance
relating to the subject. Ii Is probable.
however, that parents are allowed 10
give permits to children whom they
may send TO saloon 20 make pur-
ohases. ana that these would relieve
saloon keepers f.om any liability In such
cases
This opinion is based on the State
law In reference to the sale Of lnioxi-
cants. ANY person who knowingly
gives, sells or otherwise disposes Of any
intoxicating drink 70 a minor. or allows
a minor to be in his place Of business
where liquor Is sold, without the writ

latter will be found in section l249 OF the
Revised Statutes Of Utah.
There IS another provision OF
law on this point that should
be considered It is that. Every
person who sells or gives to another

MIN drank al the time as a beverage

misdemeanor and punishable by a fine
not exceeding one hundred dollars or
by Imprisonment in the county fall not

It Is a singular feature Of the war in
South Africa that while the correspond
ents have given US the details of British
losses II IS almost impossible to arrive
at any idea Of those which the Beers
have sustained. On this side Of the At
lantic we have heard little or nothing
OF the assault on Ladysmith November
9TH in which the Beers lost over 500
killed and wounded" When the Boer

and Colenso are ascertained 1t is far
from improbable that in the matter Of
killed and wounded they will exceed
those OF the British. The Beers conceal
their losses almost as skillfuly as they
mask their positions

England and the United States had
enjoyed a long interval Of peace. Both
countries had adopted the habit Of look
ing to the navy as their best reliance
partly because both were thinking OF
defensive warfare. The navy was kept
In constant practice, while the army
grew moribund The Beers, an inland
power looked wholly to their army and
their land force was as well prepared as
the sea force Of England or the United
States. The lesson Is obvious. A GER
tain number Of men provided with RI
fles and uniforms do not make an army.
Above all a certain number Of solemn
officials with hlgh-sounding titles and
much personal dignity do not necessar-
lily make war Office. The army should
be kept in practice and preparation as
well as the navy.

1, Is stated that the Beers are colin
ing half-mllllon dollars weekly, which
should be very handy for them as re-
source In conducting their war. But
where does the gold for these dollars
come FROM Naturally, from the mines
Of their territory. yet 1t is not under
stood that the Beers own the bulk Of
the property In these mines. That be-
longs mostly to Great Britain, and II IL

In recent address, Hon. a..

and treasurer Of the National

Union, spoke as. follows of the
hopes and aims Of that organlza-
ton:
Anyone who has thought for q
moment on the declaration of
purposes of the Farmers Alliance,
must have become imbued with
a just sense of the spirit of right
eousness, the desire for an equal.
ity of opportunity for all, and
the principle of brotherly love,
freed from all sectional and Ma
tional prejudices, and selfish am
bition',,that breathes through SEN
tence. 1t is with the desire to
see rebuilt and reorganized the
dormant and somewhat scattered
forces Of this great, influential
and humanitarian organization
that we issue this appeal to the
housands,' lovers of equal rights
for all and special privileges to
none.' who, in times past have
answered to the Alliance roll
call. Never was there more
pressing need of fulfilling our
first declaration than at the pres.
ent time, viz: To labor for the
education of the agricultural
classes IN the scie nce of economi-
cal government in a strictly non
partisan spirit, and to bring bout
more perfect union of SAID
classes| - ..-.. ,.s ..eIr e.

Il Serious Difficulty.

A difficulty occurred last Sun
day morning between Messrs
Aaron knight and II. A. L. Hun
ter, of the Taxahaw section, in
which the former was severely in a..
jured. 1t seems, from what we
can learn, that after the men fell
ont Hunter, at whose home the
difficulty occurred, went into the
house after his gun, and while he
was gone knight started off, but
Hunter went after him, overlook
him, and struck him over the
head with the gun, knocking him
down. AS Knight attempted to
get up, Hunter struck him again.
The wounded man was still liv-
ing at the last accounts, but is in
a critical condition, as his skull is
fractured.
