CERTAIN TINES MAY NOT BE REMITTED, CLUFF The stale constitution, in the opinion of Harvey 11. duff given at the request of John Walk.r, state treas- urer, last Friday prohibits justice or district courts from remitting fines, since it gives such lowers, he holds, only to the bourd of pardons to he exercised after a public hearing. Courts, lie asserts, rannot stop the wyment of fines by "rontinuous or unreasonable suspensions." The opinion is in connection with the state cigarette law, which provides a maximum fine of a hundred dollars for bootlegging. It was stated that Judge Gaylen S. Young at Salt Lake City imjicscd such fine and then remitted or suspended payment of all but twenty or twenty-fiv- e dollars in certain rases. The treasurer claimed the state should receive at least half the minimum fine or fifty dollars. t Mrs. STEVENSON LUMBER CO. WE HAVE Phone 111 or 26 ir Price, Utah. Coach?
