The Canadian system of regulation Of

iting the evil of the liquor traffic. We're
it adopted in Utah. This system pro-
vides a rigid inspection of all saloons

this morning after a scene of turbulence

18 pieces of skin grated on his

pieces were placed In most of the
cases the cuticle was taken from rela-
