No Stampede in Utah.

Utah as a mining State !s conducting
its mining organizations In such a quiet
and businesslikc manner that stampede
10 any district IS absolutely an unknown
quantity. shOwings that many neglected
districts Of the State can present were
they In Nevada would be the signal for
grand rushes and newspaper exploitation
from one end OF the country 10 the other,
That this quiet and diligent method OF
mining with no spectacular features IL
having it's effect Gun be seen readily by
such disclosures AS that given above from
tho Mining Reporter. 1t demonstrates
and emphasizes in the strongest possible
manner that no State In the Union pre-
sents better, safer and more remunera-
tive mining investments than Titan.

Raymond packed his hand bags on

When the boy, lifting his tired head,

Raymond slid from his horse and put
his arm about the Keeling lad. when

Louis leaned against his big friend.

BRITTLE STAMPS
Caused BY Action of Cold
Weather on Gum.

In view of complaints to the Post
Office Department of the brittleness
of postage stamps and their tendency
to curl and be detached after being
affixed to letters an investigation
was ordered and it was found that
the trouble is due to the hard gum
used in summer, and which is af-
fected by the cold, dry atmosphere
of the winter season. All such
stamps supplied to postmasters have
been directed to be withdrawn by
them until the summer months, and
in the meantime, new supplies are
being forwarded them, coated with
a softer gum, which is not affected
by winter weather.

Concealed Weapons.

On the subject Of carrying con-
cealed deadly weapon almost every
member has a different opinion.
Seven bills covering this evil have
been introduced.
Senator De Haven wants a fine of
not less than 5000 and imprisonment
OF from thirty to fifty days for car
rying such weapon, 1t is Senator
Ben Johnson's idea to prohibit a man
from pleading self-defense if it be
shown that he carried a weapon con-
cealed before he committed his Of
Tense.
Judge M. w. Redwine, of Elliott
county has two bills in the House,
one assessing a tax Of 500 on each
pardon for carrying a weapon con-
cealed, and the other making it a
breach Of the peace to carry such a
weapon.
Representative Mulcahy, of Wood
ford, thinks it nothing less than a
felony to carry a weapon and makes
the penalty from one to five years
in the penitentiary. Representative
Barr has bill setting forth his ideas
as to how pistol toting should be re-
garded and so has Representative
Alverson, who provides for a license
of $25 for the privilege of carrying
such weapon. Some of the men,
bers facetiously refer to this last
bill as discriminating between the
rich man and the poor man.
Senator Bennett is in line with a
reform Of the race track gambling
practice, and Senator Rives wants
to stop Sunday excursions.
The election reform measures are
also numerous. These include Rep
.resentative Drewry's bill to divorce
political organizations from office
holders, two bills requiring that
election expenses be made matter
of public record, giving sheriffs of
elections the same powers as sheriffs
of counties, etc.

Anti-Cigarette Bills.

Then comes the anti-cigarette bills,
which have caused some amusement
and some serious talk. Three of
these measures have been introduced
the first in the Senate by Senator
Gillenwaters, and two in the House
Friday by Representative Arnett
and Representative Southall. The
one introduced by Mr., Arnett is
practically the same as that of Sena-
tor Gillenwaters, and provides for a
Hopkinsville Kentuckian. [volume] (Hopkinsville, Ky.) 1889-1918, 1906-01-25

fine Of from $25 to $50 for the first
offense and from 500 to $500 foi
the second offense. These bills are
known as the suspicion" bills, a
person being deemed guilty Of being
a manufacturer if cigarette papers
are found on his person.
Mr.. Southall's bill provides dras-
tic penalties, but permits cigarette
smoker to buy his cigarettes in an
other State and smoke them in Ken
lucky if he does not give any to his
friends.

deadly weapons. These three sub
jects are to be threshed over thor
oughly in committees and on the
floors of the two houses.
The large whiskey interests of the
State divide the members considera-
bly, on the local option proposition.
Senator Cammack, of Owen county.
was the first to introduce such bill.
His measure provides that if pre-
cinct or section of a county votes to
go dry" and the county as a whole
votes to go wet, the precinct shall
still remain dry. But if a precinct
votes to go wet" and the county as
a whole votes to go dry" the pre-
cinct shall also become dry. A SINH
lar bill has been introduced in the
House.
Representative John B Wicker
has also introduced bill, making it
a breach of the peace to sell liquor
unlawfully, and requiring the. cul-
prit furnish bond to keep the peace
for year.
Judge E. Barry, who is a repre-
sentative, has presented a measure
to fix the saloon license at $500 a
year. Judge Barry says such a IL
censes would put the dives out of
business and increase the revenue to
the State.
Representative Zeb. A. Stewart
has introduced a measure to make it
unlawful to ship any sort of liquor
into local option town, county or
precinct, and fixing a penalty of not
less than SIS, nor more than 500
for each offense. Every shipment
and delivery is considered an offense.
The shipper is made equally respon-
sible with the carrying agency. This
bill would not prevent liquor from
being sent to druggists or physicians
if to be used for medicinal purposes.
Representative j. M. Mitchell has
a similar bill, but it permits a per-
son travelling into a local option dis
trict to carry for his own use liquors
in less quantities than a gallon.
Besides these proposed measures,
the Revenue and Taxation bill pro-
vides for saloon license of $500 a
year.

are numerous measures seeking to
govern the carrying Of concealed
