Where Weber Cot Left.

The first Of the principal proposed
amendments was that offered by Mi
Fuller Of Weber county. who moved to
make the county the unit instead of ex-
cepting cities Of more than 1900. Mr.
Fuller declared that in Weber county
there is prohibition outside Of Ogden. but
that conditions are such that when a
young man passes along the road with a
load Of hay, he is often requested to bring
from Ogden quart OF the demon of hu-
manity from that great commercial cen
ter"
Mr.. Fuller said that the demon Of hu-
mainly was responsible for fights at
dances and plenty Of trouble

carried it would have the effect of strik-
ing out the enacting clause. The bill does
not entirely suit me-" said Mr.. Pope, who
was member Of the conference commit
tee, but it is the best we could agree
upon. and I think II Is good measure.
I have Information that if Salt Lake
and ogden are not made units, the bill
will not be signed
When asked for the source of this in

The VIE and Wherefores.

The details Of the deal between the
brewers and the federal bunch were pref
ty well exposed during the debate But
1t was easy to be seen that most OF the
members were wearing the euro. and thar
the federal bunch was in absolute con-
troll. Members of the house who told
other members one thing-and not only
other members. but outsiders as we'll
went back on their pledges and promises
and were duly branded with tn ripper
brand
There were those, however. who refused
to have this bill Crammed down their
threats. and who declared that. while thev
had every respect for the governor, they
would permit no man TO dictate to them
how they ought to vote.
Mr. Cannon made the principal speech
against the bill, although AIR Holman
led the fight on the floor. Mr.. Holman
tactics were carried out consistently and
with no small degree of success, in view
of the overwhelming opposition which he
had to meet. Mr.. Thompson. an unCom-
promising prohibitiOnist. made a bitter
speech last night. in which he declared
the bill to be a miserable subterfuge and
a ratification Of the deal between the
liquor interests and the politicians OF the
Republican party.

tives by vote OF 1873 to 144 That
part of the first floor where pensions
are paid is reserved for the use OF en-
ployes during inaugural week, 30 that
there will be no interference with the
work Of paying pensions.
In opposing the bill Representative
Sims of Tennessee declared that the
inaugural ball was fraud. anyway"
for the reason that the expenses Of tho
ball were not paid by Washingtonians,
as the public here would have the
country at large believe, but came out
Of the pockets OF visitors who were
overcharged by some business men
and others. In support OF his asser-
ton, he read two letters received by
persons not living in Washington who
had written here asking for hotel
rates. One letter was from the Met.
ropolitan hotel, which asked s125 for
the use OF one room facing on Penn
.sylvania-aye., for one week, refusing
TO rent the room for shorter period
Another letter complained OF was
from the ST. James hotel. which asked
SIS a day for q room not facing on
Pennsylvania-ave. where the inaugur.
alton procession can be seen, and $40
per day for a room facing on that ave-
nue.. The rooms, Also 1t was stated,

LEGAL TANGLES

presented 10 the city" is the way THAI
Corporation Counsel Hally sizes Up
the present status OF number Of
Fairview paving matters up for deter
mination now. One OF these has to
do with the paving of Jefferson-av
about $4,000 was collected on this,
and Of this sum $4,000 was paid on
the bonds, while the other $4,000 was
diverted to other uses. The question
now comes up as to whether Detroit is
liable for the $4,000 diverted before
the annexation of Fairview.
Some other special assessment rolls
cover property in Detroit and also in
Crosse Pointe park, the new village.
The city OF Detroit cannot collect mon
ey for the village and the village has
no legal right 10 get up new assess
ment rolls to cover this property. II

released Monday morning. The police
are inclined to take her part.
Mrs. Mcdonald was visiting her sis

trouble occurred, Mrs. Kesler notified
Police headquarters that there was a

he reached the house, kesler, with a
