In round figures the taxpayers of Carbon county are burdened with $20,000.00 for Demings office as sheriff and $4000.00 per year for the county jail, where provender is supplied to resting bootthousand dollars per year leggers by Mrs. Deming. Twenty-fou- r is what the taxpayers are contributing and the great part of this large expenditure is' absolutely wasted in making a joke of the prohibition law. No other county in Utah expends half the amount per capita spent here for the glorification of Volstead. It may be safety added no county in Utah has more bootleggers per capita. If the prohibition law's have accomplished the reform of a single drinker in Carbon county that individual can make some money displaying himself in a glass cage right here in the countyseat. Everybody would want to see him and be glad to pay a dime for a good look. If a physician fails after six years of experiment to better condition of his patient he doesnt have to quit, lie is fired. The great Volsteadian healer after sapping the taxpayers of Carbon county of $24,000.00 per year without accomplishing the faintest reform should be called to account by the general public. IIow long will our county commissioners stand for this exorbitant waste of public funds? What facts can be brought fonvard to justify the further expenditure of a single dollar for the employment of undercover sneaks, searchers, informers, chemists, tasters, inducers, spotters or other like ilk necessary to exthousand dollars per year? haust twenty-fou- r Voters of Carbon county should repudiate this expensive system in the coming election. A sheriff should be chosen who is willing to devote his time to his office in telephonic touch with all parts of his bailiwick. When complaints are made by citizens that a misdemeanor has been committed he should go forth w'ith a regular warrant of arrest and get the person charged. Felonies f.hould be the subject of his icrsonal investigation, but it is not his duty to smell around the county for misdemeanors and it is not the duty of the commissioners to furnish him with funds and deputies to harass and plunder the homes and business houses of thousour citizens. The fact that the expenditures of twenty-fou- r and dollars per year have accomplished nb good affords an unanswerable argument in favor of a change in the present system. Some citizen should arise and announce his willingness to take the office of sheriff under promise to protect the property rights of all, catch the felons and keep his hoofs and talons and particularly his nose out of the misdemeanor chasing enterprise. Such a man will run the office at a saving of better than ten thousand dollar a year and everybody will admire him. Iuid lulitieal Advrrtwinrnt. OP BITUMINOUS ing state institutions, W. B.
