EMERY COUNTY PEOPLE
THINK TAXES TOO HIGH

Huntington, June S-The capitol cleo
ton passed off very quietly mere To-Day.
There were 79 votes cast, four for the tax
and 70 against il. There seems to be a
general feeling Of unrest among the peo-
pie in regard to governmental affairs.
and discussions among the people reveal
the discomfort there is in regard to pres
ent conditions the people claiming that
the remuneration for the labor Of the
working classes and farmers Is not In
proportion to the prices charged FOR all
necessities Of the common people, and
thev refuse to take upon themselves
greater burdens. especially in the shape
Of taxation until this condition is re-
lieved. This sentiment is expressed by
all. regardless of party or politics and
the very people who have voted for
years to bring this condition of affairs.
refuse to believe that it is tariff for pro-
lection that has brought these conditions
upon them. Another thing. the people
have not yet got over the selling OF them
out to the liquor interests last winter,
nor are they taking kindly to tho graft
and gambling affairs that are going on
in Salt Lake City, as long the " Risky
interests can buy immunity and prOtcC-
