The Utah LIQUOR Law

The Utah senate yesterday passed a
stringent liquor law. 1t gives local
option to all counties and to cities of
12,000 population or over separate
vote on the abolition of saloons. The
question must be submitted when 25 per
cent of the voters so petition. Where
prohibition is not adopted, saloons are
to be closed from Up. m. to z q. m. the
bars to be visible from the street, chairs,
tables, booths, music and free lunches
are to be tabooed. Liquor is not to be
sold to any man who has been drunk
within six months and the licenses of
breweries and distilleries are to be in
creased many fold. This measure will
pass the house and be signed by the gov
ernor and the impression is that all but
four counties of the state will take
advantage of the; law to suppress the
liquor traffic entirely
The time is not far off when the
people of Nevada, will demand a more
stringent regulation of the liquor traf-
fic. When that time comes, the reform
pendulum may swing too far toward
prohibition, but the fault will lie with
the liquor delears. Had they demanded
that the present legislature pass re-
strictive high license law with the local
option feature, the temperance element
would have been satisfied for time ut
least. But the indicatsons are that no
temperance legislation will be enacted
at this session and as result the tenn
perance sentiment will be SO strong two
years from now that it may demand
absolute prohibition. Nevada will not
always be found i'll the rear ranks of the
procession.

The visitor, a speaker we'll known for
his verbose and circumlocutary mode of
speech, began his address as follows:
"This morning, children, propose to
offer you an epitome of the life of St.

The investigation committee ap-
pointed by the Senate and Assembly to
investigate into the affairs of the State
Bank & Trust Company held an open
meeting last evening and examined a
number of witnesses among whom were
Secretary of State Douglass, State
Treasurer Ryan, Receiver Frank L..
Wildes and e. 8. Attorney Platt.
Senator Boyd has been appointed the
Chairman of the committee and adj
ministered the oaths to the witnesses.
The main point of the investigation at
the present time seems to hinge around
the question OF the trading. of accounts
and furthermore as to theaction of the
bank examiners in allowing the bank to
remain for such q length of time after
it was discovered to be insolvent with
out the appointment Of q Receiver.
The two reports made by Bank Exam
iner Miller to the Board of Bank Com
missioners are the foundation for an in
vestigation with the apparent1motive in
view of proving that the Commissioners
were derelict in their duties and re-
fused to accept the first report made by
him and sent out to make another ex-
animation and which, when fled tended
to show that the banks were solvent,
when in reality, by the testimony of
Receiver Wildes, they were hopelessly
insolvent.
Both Douglas and Ryan testified that
no moneys belonging to the state were
or are in the State Bank and Trust
Company. That at the time of the
| closing of the bank, or rather prior
thereto, there was the sum of 49,, 900
deposited in the bank in the name of
Douglas and which represented the
collections made in the Office for the
three months prior and which had been
placed in the bank in the way of checks
and drafts for collection.
OF this amount about $4,000 was
paid by the bank before it closed and of
the remainder due bills were accepted
as security. These due bills were taken
up by Douglass and Ryan and the state
received every dollar of the money. T..
Receiver Wildes will prepare num-
Der of statements of the condition of the
bank and the conditions at the time of
the closing for the benefit of the com
mittee. The investigation will take a
number of days and will be watched
swith' intense interest by all who are
interested in the matter of the bank and
it's failure.
1t is thought that number of ses-
sions will be held and large amount
of evidence taken and the final outcome
will depend wholly upon disclosures
that is thought will be made and at this
time not sufficiently in evidence to al
low of action.-Carson News

Montgomery, Ala, March 15.--Mont,

with the greatest food in the history
OF the city. The Alabama river was
nearing the 50-foot stage, and the wea-
ther bureau predicts 55-foot stage

last night Of the city being thrown into
darkness, the water threatening steam
plants OF both electric light companies
and the gas works. Residents Of No

to move Immediately, and all day the
police aided families in getting to places
Of safety. Across the river from Mont
gomery there is sea OF water extend.

far no fatalities have occurred. A force
Of laborers has begun barrieade
against the PROBABILITY of the gas plant
being crippled, as a stage near 60 feet
would cut oil gas service, and a brick
wall is being constructed to keep the
waters out. The greatest alarm is

From Elmore county vague reports
are being received about persons cut

Montgomery yesterday afternoon that
the Tallapoosa river had oyerfowed its

will be experienced there.
Stocks of dynamite have been placed
