entrance fee OF the non-residents so that
the revenue of the institution is not Iii

The present law which it is proposed
to amend il as follows.

The high entrance fee for non-i esidents

PROHIBITION FOR STATE.

Petitions are being circulated and signed
enthusiastically by our people for the pur-
pose of petitioning our legislature to enact
q state Law prohibiting the sale and man
ufscture of intoxicating liquor in the state.
The movement has spread all over the
state and indications are that such a
power will be brought to bear on our
lawmakers that it will be next to impos-
sble for them to refuse. 1t is understood.
however, that the saloon element of Salt
Lake City has put up some 5000 with
which to fight the move and II is to be
hoped that our legislators will not be so
foolish as to be won over to their way of
thinking. Prohibition state wide means

dition and the making Of Utah an ideal

FIRST MENTION
OF PROHIBITION
Senators Discuss Printing OF
Temperance Petitions in
the Senate Journal.
VOTE INDICATES VIEWS
w. c. 7. u. OF OGDEN URGES THE
PASSAGE OF OPTION BILL.

The prohibition question. rs a matter
Of discussion. was on the floor Of the
senate yesterday for the first time during
the present session. The point discussed
was not a vital one. but the discussion
brought out the possible friends and op
pOnents of prohibition
During the reading Of the journal it
was noted that there was considerable
space taken up By the record of prohibit
ton petitions received By the senate. Sen
ator Benner Y. Smith asked that less
space be devoted to the record Of these
petitions he moved that the receipt Of
all the petitions be noted in a few lines
that the record might not be encum-
bered. His motion was seconded by Sen
ator John J. Smith.
After the question had beer discussed
at some length Senator Hyde offered an
amendment that the title Of each petition
be given with the name Of the first signer
and the number Of signatures be pub
lished in the record Senator Smith moved
to amend the amendment by printing all
Of the petitions and all of the names
This amendment was ruled out Of order
by the chair
Then the question arose as to what con-
stituted q petition 10 the senate. Some
Of the senators declared that petitions ad-
dressed to each senator personally were
personal business. while others including
Senator Hyde thought that all petitions,
no matter to whom addressed. should be
presented to the senate and given recOg-
milton in the senate journal
Finally Senator Kuchler brought every
one down to earth by moving as an
amendment to the amendment that all
correspondence Of the senators. personal
or otherwise. be submitted to the senate
and printed in full in the journal. After
the senator's had finished laughing at this
amendment and the chair had ruled It out
of order a vote was taken on the amend
ment of Mr.. Hyde. The amendment car
ried and the petitions will be noted in the
senate journal in much the same manner
as heretofore.
There was a suggestion that the vote
