Veach With Washington The Juab County Fair which opens in this city iext Wednesday morning promises to be an epoch making event iu the history of this section of the state. Mr. A. V. Pyper, the fair manager has arranged a three day program which will keep things the moving every minute during time the fair remains oien. It would be impossible to crowd into the space of three days a greater variety of sports and thrills than what the program calls for. Of course, the exhibits are the educational feature of any fair and are therefore the most important part of the fair. The various exhibits already arranged give promise of surpassing anything ever shown in this part of Utah. Due to the lack of a suitable fair ground it has been necessary to provide a place for displaying the exhibits in buildings on Main Street. For this purpose the old Nephi Mercantile store, and the former J. C. Penney building will probably be used for the exhibits. BASEBALL Three good games have been arranged with the following teams: Wednesday, Mt. Pleasant vs Nephi, Thursday, Payson vs Nephi; Friday, for the championship of Juab County Eureka vs Nephi. Each game will be for a purse of $100.00. BABY t'OXTKST ged to enter their test to be held babies- in OPENING MEANS MUCH T0"NEPHI the con- starting Sept. 21. and ending Sept. 25th.

Including the iniquitous punchboard which breeds the gambling Instinct In young boys and girls, ought to be prohibited by law; and that these laws should be enforced. I am further absolutely convinced that good citizens everywhere ought to cooperate with officials in the enforcement of the law, and lend whatever assistance is In their power to the officers they elect to see that lawbraklng shall cease. I am convinced that it Is the duty of citizens worthy the name of citizens to inform against lawbreakers, and demand that prosecutions be Instituted. Miss Helen Peterson of Ogden, Utah, and Mrs. Wm. Shepherd of Salina. are here spending a fw i id days with their parents Mr. And to the end that liquor-laMrs. E. W.

I promise, without equivocation, that when evidence which will be competent In court and sufficient to Justify a conviction, Is made available to me, I shall Institute prosecutions, and that it will be Immaterial who Is Involved. I repeat the statements heretofore made by me that the operation of punchhoards and raffles Is positively prohibited by the laws of Utah, and that on account of the fact that boys and young men are very often made gamblers by these vicious devices, I am absolutely in sympathy with the law, and expect to prosecute violations, wherever competent evidence, sufficient to secure a conviction Is presented to me. Also, In order that the making home-breand selling of beer, which frequently tests from four to seven per cent alcohol, shall be stopped, I call attention of merchants and others who sell malt and malt extracts from which such beer is made, to the provisions of Section 3342 of the Prohibition Act, which, in defining intoxicating liquors, recites, that: "All mixtures, compounds, or preor not, parations, whether liquor which are Intended, when mixed with water o rotherwise, to produce, an by fermentation or otherwise, also be intoxicating liquor shall deemed to be embraced within such term." If the malts and malt syrups which are being sold by merchants and others, come within the definition of the statute, their sale, possession, or use Is a misdemeanor, and prosecution will be Instituted upom complaint being made. 1 Invite the of all cooperation officers and citizens of Juab County to the end that the laws shall be enforced.
