PROVO TO Be DRY
AFTER NEW YEARS
City Council Turns Down Petit
ton of Over 1,400
Voters.
Especial to The Observation-Disclosures

Provo, Dec. 2S.-The committee on ju-
dietary, to which was referred the petit
ton Of 1,465 people Of Provo at the last
meeting Of the city council, requesting
that the ordinance making the town dry
be repealed, presented its report to the
council meeting tonight. The report OF
the committee was against the petition
being granted, and several members, COM
prising James NJ. Jensen. Andrew Knud-
sen, George POWeisenr W. f, Giles and
a. NJ Carter. made speeches supporting
the action of the committee in turning
down the petition
The council voted unanimously to ac-
cept the report of the committee, and
this action on their part makes Provo
dry after January l.
Some peculiar features of the entire
prohibition affair are coming to light
here. A. NJ. Carter, who at the council
meeting held last August when it was
voted to make Provo dry, voted against
the ordinance, changed his mind and sided
with the prohibition forces tonight. At
the time of the August meeting of the
council it was claimed that fully % per
cent of the population wanted a dry
town but at the election later it was
conclusiVely proved that the town was
wet" by more than Go Der cent.

TO TRAIN GUN ON CLIFF
Other Attempts to Blow Out Ice
Gorge in Ogden Canyon
Have Failed.
Especial to The Heraid-Republican)

Ogden. Dec. 2S.-AttomDts to blast away
the ice on the cliffs i'm Ogden canyon
yesterday proved of little avail, due TO
the soft and porous nature of the ice,
which counteracted the effect Of the dy-
Mantle. Today three more blasts were
used and although a goodly portion Of
the glacier was toppled into the bottom
OF the canyon without further damage to
the road bed of the trolley line, many
hundreds Of tons of ice still cling to the
cliffs.
Engineers i'm charge Of the work are
at their wits ends. Today it was an
nounced that if tine blasting continued TO
be unsuccessful, a large battery gun from
the national guard armory would De
shipped from Salt / axe and trained on
the cliIfs.
1t is understood that the county COM
missiOners will take no step towards the
building of a new permanent steel bridge
in the canyon until the responsibility of
the great avalanche can be determined.
ii is likely that suit viii be brought
against the Utah Light & Railway com
pany by the county. The former owns
the water line from which the ice was
formed.
