At Lehi last Tuesday Prohibition carried the day, and the saloons will lie closed down in the near future. It was a hot campaign and the name i.f Sprintf ville was frequently dragged into the discussion. i The liquor element even went so! far as to send an emissary to Spring-ville Spring-ville to dig up evidence with which to bolster up tne saloon cause in Lehi. This gentleman whose natut is withheld with-held for various reasons, spent u couple of days aud a night here, and on his return home gave to the public his views over the alias of "Mariner'' In the Lehi Manner. He treats the subject at length, but the following only concerns this city: During the last few weeks Sprlng-ville Sprlng-ville has often been referred to by men who have arraved themselves on both sides of this quest ion. Some have asserted that large quantities of whisky was s:ld in spite of all efforts to prevent it, others have claimed that it was not to be had under any I circumstances. A visit to this much j talked of city will convince the most1 skeptical that the latter is not true. Although, as before stated, prohibi-bition prohibi-bition is in vogue. The first indication indica-tion of it was seen not many rods from the depot where a sign is conspicuously con-spicuously posted in the edge of a large mud hole of unknown depth notifying the passer by that fishing in this pond is not allowed. I am free te confess that I was powerless to even i : , l .1. !.... 1.1 : I picture a species in nsii i.iai wouiu Hi-habit Hi-habit such a black, sticky place as that unless it was a fallen mud turtle th'it had hern ostracised by her fellow turtles. t .1 have -it from good authority -that' this hole has existed under prohibition since '02. How long would it-exist in Lehi undei the system of high license aud progress? Five years? Not on your life. Has anyone ever heanl.il a counter in Spiingville that men could go behind and get all they wanted? 1 had heard of it often and acting on the information, during a recent visit, I looked for it, and found it. At least if not the same one a similiar one. I was looking for all I wanted too; and found that and knew It the moment I saw it although it wasliving under an alias. It was called Essence of Peppermint but it had the same winning smile, the same insinuating proclivities and the same lusty propositions as if it were known by its live name. I had several short consulations with it. Its eloquence was as icrsusive as of yore, it never whs a Sabbatarian and is not to-day. It will give you an audience as readily on Sunday us on Monday. In Spring-ville, Spring-ville, unfortunately, I did not have the pleasure of being served by a dainty little lass whose fairy lingers made a fitting frame for a glass of it in a prohibition town. During my sojourn In the city 1 heard frequent references to dances and other like affairs. One dance In particular was referred to as being highly interesting and an object lesson to those who are so anxiom to do awav with falooas. Last Friday evening the youth of Springville had gathered to trip the light fantastic, and .-is is usually the custom in a prohibition town, King Alcohol was everywhere in evidence his abiding places were many and his devotees were as jubilant and as boisterous as could be found anywhere. The noise and confusion Anally became be-came So appalling that the- manager the party served notice that the hall would be closed unless the uproar up-roar ceased. Perhaps this was somewhat some-what out of ordinary, but the following follow-ing clipping from the Springville Independent In-dependent of Sept. !) would not lead "Last Sunday's crop of drunkenness was abundant enough to meet the requirements of a saloon town. The booze on which the crop was nourished did not come from Spanish Fork and Provo all of it. This is a temperance us to believe so: town. Where did it come from? And echo answers: Where?" Prohibition has not been any move successful seemingly in Springville than in other places. Whiskey is drank In all manner of places, it 's brought iuto town In various ways; by rail, by wagons and in pockets, and in spite 'of the vigilance of the o Ulcers can be had any day in the week, and Royal makes the food pure, wholesome and delicious. ftOYAl m POWDER Absolutely Pure ROVAl BAKING POWDER CO.. hF YORK. the city does not get one cent of revenue from the traffic.

The Humblest Home is a Million the Times Better Than Finest Hotel. "Home life cements the love of husband and wife: other modes of living often lotsen the tie,"' writes Edward V. lijk in the November Ladies' Home Journal. "Nor does the question of expense excuse the nut having of one's own home. A home is nut, of necessity, neces-sity, a palace. The humblest cottage is a million times better than the most luxurious hotel ever planned by the hands of man-In man-In t lie one happiness -is probable: in the other it is jut possible. We can taifc all we choose about married happiness: that it, after all, rests solely betwoon two pee-ple. and that it makes no difference where they live. That is very good as a theory. Hut thousands of Instances prove the contrary: that the thecry will not work out in practice. Happinessi depends de-pends upon the growth pf the, pep pie who' the parts of it. .People who stop and stagnate are never happy. True happiness thrives on what it feeds upon. Let stagnation enter into two lives, and happiness becomes stagnant stag-nant and unhealthy. Hut let our lives be tilled with contentment, with domestic pleasure, with that genu of evolution which springs from the, hearthstone, and the happiness w hich springs from those elements is purer, sweeter and more satisfj ing to our natures, on:' min is an 1 our souls. A nun and wife were made to abide together in inseparable lives, and as new elements come into that union to sweeten and hallow it, the abiding place, should be some little place, some world their where corner in this bi,r which they can call own, their very own, everything around them speaks of the husband's energy and the wife's achievement.

Last Friday while, switching at Eureka Isaac Randall met with a very serious accident which came near proving fatal. He was on top of a car letting otf the brakes, when the dog which holds the brake rod gave way, letting the rodpin around at a fearful rate. The lever with which Randall was working struck him aud knocked him off the car. He fell 14 feet striking on his knees among a font of rocks. Mr. R indall was very badly shaken and bruised up, but no Ifctnes were broken and as far an known no serious internal inter-nal injuries were sustained. He was brought home Friday night and is now confined to his bed by his in. juries, which are very painful but are not of dangerous character. It will probably be a few weeks before he can again take up his work. A II At; OF HONES. Interesting Find Made by n Sheep Herder Near Castllla.
