Hills Pioneer Passes Away.

Deadwood.-As the result of a SUM-
stroke on his ranch, ninety miles
north OF here, three weeks ago. Dan
lei Scanlon, aged 50. died at st.
Joseph's hospital in this city. Scan
lon, when taken i'll, declined to be
moved until his son arrived, when
they made a s'xry-mile ace to the
railroad station and brought him here.
The delay In receiving aid is thought
to have fastened his death. For thir-
ty years past Scanlon has been an
employee Of the Homestake Mining
company L Lead.

urated the March, as a Celebration
of the Day, in the Eastern
Metropolis That Year.

UNLIKE other holidays that are
observed by the American peo-
~ pie, Labor day did not have it's
beginning in the commemora-
ton Of any great event in the worlds
history and for hat reason there is
considerable doubt as to who was re-
sponsible for its birth.
There are many who lay claim to
being the originators of Labor's Ia
tional holiday, and there have been
many chronological tables produced
in support Of each ones claim. Au-
thorities, however, are almost unani-
mously agreed that the celebration
that has now become one of the ma
tional holidays was given its first
impulse by the Knights of Labor in
New York in 1882.

movement did not, they say, at that

BEST OF ALL INVESTMENTS
Can Not Do Better Than Put
Money Into a Boy.

A professor OF the Chicago univer-
sity has been i~ndulging in figures re-
lating to the cost OF rearing a boy
He says that no matter how poor a
boys parents may be it cost $4,000 to
bring him from babyhood to the age
Of eighteen. This Is the minimum for
any boy. And you can spend as much
more than this as you please.

The annual County Fair is to
be held in Parowan during next
month. 1t is to the best inter-
ests of the people of the county
seat that it be made as great a
success as possible. In this The
Record should like to ASSIST. Its
record on matters of public in
terest will, without further dis
cussion. affirm this fact.
We wish to advise the people,
however, that this paper is work
ing at a very great disadvantage,
and is greatly handicapped in
working for the fair and exploit
ing its Importance, due to the
action of the committee which
has the matter in charge.
This paper has neither been
visited by nor received any com
munication Of any nature what
ever from any member of the
fair committee. The printing,
contrary to the plan followed
last year, has been awarded
without question to the other
paper published in this county.
No bids were asked for, no fair
ness has been shown in the
awarding of the printing. In
justice to several members OF
the committee. according to in.
formation received through Par.

mittee are to be censured fol-

the real cause doubtless being

charging with fidelity a public
trust.

NEW BUILDING
FOR HOSPITAL

The first of the week DR.. A.
N. Leonard began work on the
foundation for a hospital in con-
nection with his residence on
South Main street.
The building will include a re-
ception room, operating room
and two rooms for patients with
two beds in each room, afford
ing accommodation for four
patients at all times.
The doctor feels that the
location of the hospital at pres
ent is too near the business CEN
ter for the proper care of the
sick, owing to the noise from
the street, and the change will
eliminate this objection.

any other paper in the county,

PROHIBITION IS
GAINING OVER
IN DENMARK
LIBERAL LaAoER APPEALS TO
The COUNTRY TO DROP
laToNlcANTs.

COPENHAGEN sept 20 G..
Christensen. leader Or the liberal
marty has started al agitation for
statewide prohibition in Denmark.
NOT long ago the liberal party sue
cessfuly fathered a bill which en-.
forces important restrictions on the
sale Of liquor in bars. restaurants
and similar places. and the liberal
leader evidently intends to follow
this up with law enforcing total
prohibition OF the sale Of intoxicants
nj Denmark.
During the past few years the Dan
ish people have become more and
more abstemious in their habits, and
as the younger generation is espe
cially temperate. the agitation for
prohibition is not based on any grow
ing insobriety On the part Of the
people Of the country.
/ In explaining why the liberal party
which stands for a large measure o.
personal liberty. should be backinl
such a bill. Mr.. Christensen says al
eohol is a poison and that the STATE
should forbid and regulate its u.s.
lust as it does in the case Of othe
recognized poisons.
Until the late temperate legisla
ton went into effect, Denmark, ha'
depended upon education to figh
the evils Of intemperance, and tht
is the first time the advocates o
the prohibition movement hay
sought government regulation of tn
liquor traffic.
1t is believed that the people wi
lacquiesce in the proposed legisli
ton in spite of the alleged attac
on personal liberty, which they fe'
must be limited for the benefit {
the community.
