REV. E. 4. TABOR RESIGNS
Anti-Saloon League Superintend-
 ent Out.
s Unanswered Charges of Drinking Intoxicat ing Liquor Said to be Cause of
 Resignation.
FROM MONDAYS DAILY.

On his refusal to either deny of affirm charges of drinking and carrying intoxicating liquor in his possession the resignation of Rev. Edward A. Tabor, state superin- tendent of the Anti Saloon League of Arkansas. 1t is claimed, was re- quested by the executive board of that organization and accepted, to take effect immediately.
 The resignation of MT. Tabor was presented to the board at its last meeting. It was the outcome of several charges of drinking that had been made against him and which it is said he did not deny. It is stated that the charges are known to be true, and that Mr. Tabor confessed to having taken whiskey at times, but that he always had explanations for his so doing. These explanations are said, however, not to have been satisfactory to the board, and for this reason his resignation was asked.

The above is portion of an ar ticle appearing in this morning $ Gazette, which has caused pro- found sensation in this city, for several years the home of MT. Ia bor and the scene of his first aCtlv- itives in the cause of prohibition.
 Dr. James A. Anderson, who is a member of the executive board to which MT. Tabor's resignation was rendered, stated this morning that, while he was familiar with the facts in the case, he regretted that 1t had been given publicity and preferred to make no state ment for publication. "Whether the charges are true or untrue, " said Dr. Anderson, "the state of Arkansas land Conway especially owes a debt to MT. Tabor that can never be repaid '
 Rev. Tabor was one of the lead CTS in the movement to abolish sa- sloons in Conway, when he was pastor of the local Methodist church fabout 20 years ago. Soon after the sale of whiskey was prohibited here, he started the work of secur- ing the location of Hendrix in this city and was recognized as the leader in this work. In recogni- ton of his services, the main dormi- tory building at Hendrix College was named "Tabor Hall. " Dur ing his residence here MT. Tabor was married to Miss Mamie Lou Randell.

DENIES GAMING CHARGE
Ogden City Attorney Succeeds in
Making the Fourth Complaint
Stick.
Especial to The Herald-Republican.)

Especial to The HeraId-R publican.)
ogden, Nov. 29.-Three times the case
of the city against w. H. Van Noy,
charged with conducting a gambling
house, has come into police court and
three times the defense has had it
thrown out of court on the legal grounds
that the~cOmplaint failed to state facts
sufficient to constitute an Offense. To-
day the city attorney succeeded in con-
vincing the court that his fourth COM
plant was adequate. IL charged Van
NOy with conducting a room resorted
to for playing poker for money. To this
charge Van Noy pleaded not guilty, and
the case was taken up at once.
According to testimony this morning,
Chief of Police Tom Browning, Patrol
man Bob Burke and Detective J. f.
Pendor entered Van Noy's place on
lower Twenty-fifth street after forcing
the door. Their claims that they heard
the hurried scrambling of men to escape
and the rattle OF poker chips hastily
swept out Of sight, were bitterly op-
posed by the defense. 1t was practically
established at the time of the raid Van
NOy caused the lights to be put out, and
that under the cover of darkness he re-
moved the evidences of the poker game.
The court took the case under advise
ment, and will render a decision tomor-
row

ORDINANCES ARE
TO Be REVISED.
Tax on Drug Stores Is Raised
and the Liquor Question
Aired.
Especial to The Herald-Republican.,

Especial to The Republican,
Provo, Nov. 29. - Wholesale revision
of the city ordinances was included in
a blanket ordinance passed by the city
council tonight. The principal charge
was in the license ordinance in which
the tax on drug stores was revised to
$40 for a store with a stock of 81 900
and 81 additional for every 81 900 stock
up to $4,000 and s. a thousand above
$4,000. This places the drug store or
d1nance at about twice the figure for
other mercantile institutions.
The passing of the ordinance brought
out a discussion regarding the prohibit
ton ordinance which goes in effect
January /, and it is believed by many
that this ordinance will be repealed
before it goes in force and strict regu-
latiOn of the liquor traffic embodied
in substitute ordinance. This comes
from the condition now existing in
which the city council is dry and the
mayor has been elected on a wet" plat
form. The "drys" argue that with the
executive department of the city gov
eminent opposed to prohibition, the or
dinance cannot be enforced and it Will
be better to have a strict regulation
of the saloon business than a prOhibi-
ton ordinance which cannot be en-
forced.
The council issued an order instruct
ing the judiciary committee to employ
necessary help to go over the city rec
ords from the incorporation of Provo
and make copies of all franchises and
resolutions now in effect

of Salt Lake has been here
for the last two weeks working
quietly among the dairymen for the es-
tablishment Of a cooperative cream
cry, cold storage and ice plant for this
part Of the country. 1t is said that,
owing to Indifferent treatment of the
prising Sewer, Wayne and Piute coun-
ties, that the production of milk and
cream has fallen of from an income of
over 5000 900 a year to less than half
of that amount The plan proposed by
Mr.. Faust has been received with a
good deal Of enthusiasm and within
the next thirty days plans for the cree
ton Of buildings and equipment Will be
well in hand.

buildings at Richfield and make this
the headquarters of the company. Such
men as A. r. Hawley, Eph. DastFHp,
George Brinkerboff. a wealthy dairy
man of Wayne county, are at the head
Of tho movement. The promotion of the
company has been kept a secret until
now, as il was not desired that the
competition of creameries should be-
come active enough to injure the prop
ositiOn until the milk producers had
been shown the advantages of the new
company The producers Will all take
stock in the new company, so that they
will reap the benefits of the marketing
