Stories to Elect That Bootlegging Is Encouraged If the Bootleggers Are Good and Pay Fine Without Hiring Lawyers and Going to Court In Cir-culation. Sheriff Ben Harries has repeatedly been belly-achin- g about suits filed against him in connection with his trying to enforce the prohibition law in Salt Lake county, and by his preach ing he has obtained no little sympa-thy throughout the county and the state and have received some contri-butions from ardent prohibitionists. Perhaps he is trying to enforce the law in the county generally. We do not know. But at Bingham we can see and learn a few things and so far as our information goes it looks like the sheriff's office is maintained here only for the revenue that can be obtained and not for the purpose of suppress-ing crime so far as the bootlegging business is concerned. The main thing here is to see at the end of the month how much the bootleggers have contributed to the treasury of the county, and the more they have paid in the better., It looks like a business matter for revenue only and in no wise a protection to society. Its break the law and after that they can go on breaking the law and later pay another license. No wonder in such a condition the peo-ple cry out against those who are supposed to maintain the peace of the community. iSo far as we know the sheriff's here are as good and as capable as in other parts of the county, but it look? as though its money, money, money for the county that they are after and not for the purpose of seeing thai the laws are obeyed. They do not ap-pear to wish the laws to be obeyed but to see that those who violate the laws pay a portion of the money got-ten unlawfully to the county. And the more money the officers get from Bingham bootleggers the better pleased the high authorities are. That's the system we have here in a general way. It is common talk also on the streets that a number of distilleries in the camp are running wide open under protection. As to this we do not know but we say it is common talk, and that these great distilleries pay a per-centage of their revenue to the sher-iff's deputies. Just so they pay the money it makes no difference how much they violate the law. The graft is the thing that counts. At Copperfield and Highland Boy it is said that the bootlegging joints that are in favor with the sheriff's office run wide open and pay attention to no one because they have paid. It is also said that others who are knock ed over, if they toady to the sheriff's can pay a fine and then go right on with their business provided they make no defense in court and submit to the dictates of the officers who knock them over. A case came into court here recent-ly where it was whispered or we might say almost openly talked that the offender had for a year or more been paying protection money and suddenly decided that the people he was pacing the protection money to were as bad as hin-sel- if not worse, and decided to cut his payroll to that extent. Then it is said that it was only a .short time till he was violently knocked over and hailed into court as one of the worst violators, and, al-though he was then a very poor man, he was fined handsomely as a means to deter others. And all this in the name of justice and with a view of showing the pub-lic that the law is being rigidly en-forced. It is also said that the county prof-its in the women traffic and all the county wants is money. " In other words from what is said the county is not only in-- the bootleg-ging business as a sort of silent part-ner, but it is also engaged in the white slave business and gets its rake off from that source an'd its faithful servants come up at the end of the month and say to their superiors, "See how well we have done-- we have brought so much money to you from the violators." But they would not have the viola-tors desist from their unseemly ways. No, no, "that would ruin their on Page Five) At Last They Have Agreed I itT5 mo all am Chips and Shavings Around Bingham Congressman E. 0. Leatherwood, of Salt Lake City was in Bingham on Friday last the guest of Dr. Inglesby of the Bingham Stage Line. Mr. Lea-therwood inspected the new garage which the doctor is constructing on Main Street. Bill Whitaker for many years con-nected with the Western Newspaper Union as stockman was a Bingham visitor Friday. John Tampakay, who for several years was a resident of Copperfield, returned from California recently and opened up a cafe in the building for-merly used by the Standard Bread Company. Mr. Tampakay will spec-ialize in Greek dishes and is already receiving fair patronage. City Clerk Francis Quinn returned home on Sunday evening after mak-ing a 3836 mile trip with his wife and family. . Mr. Quinn made his tour thru the Northwest and said he had no tire trouble while on the trip, o one set of tires were practically worn out. There was 264 gallons of i ii r :i gas usea ana ten gallons ui on. Chief of Police Frank Tha.rtpson left for a trip thru the Yellowstone this week.

Mr. and Mrs. Charles Piz are spend-ing their vacation in the Yellowstone district. Mr. Hart, manager of the Isis Thea-tre, of Salt Lake, was a business vis-itor in camp Wednesday. Mr. Hart is busy making bookings for the ma-ny pictures that will-- be exhibited at the Isis Theatre here. Mrs. M. L. Jones has been engaged as pianist and John Culleton will play special violin selections on the opening of the new Isis Theatre here on or about the 22nd inst. Many of the pictures to be exhibited here are now drawing thousands of people to the Capital Theatre at New York City. Two fire alarms were turned in on Thursday morning but happily little damage was done. The first was turned in from 70 Main and the other was from 44 Markham. The truck was pulled, out in jake time and was at both fires in little time with Dot Mitchell at the wheel. Ms Clili Timpoflos The Boy Scouts who were able to take advantage of the Scout Caravan this last week saw and experienced one of the most interesting sights Utah County has to offer. A start was made from Bingham on Wednesday morning about 9 a. m. Through the courtesy of the Bingham Stage Lines they were able to make the journey comfortably over the State Road to Orem thence through Provo Canyon over the Loop to Am-erican Fork Canyon to Mutual Dell. Camping near the Mutual Dell camp ground we enjoyed the association of the Bee Hive Girls and the Scouts from the valley. Wednesday evening we held our 'own Bon-fir- e and had as guests Mr. R. J. Bryant and E. E. Laney, Assis-tant Scoutmasters, of the Highland Boy Troop. Mr. Tracy and Mrs. Sam-uel Mitchell were interested visitors during the evening. The Boys went to bed early and would have slept late but for the ex citement oi tne Big nine up Mouni Tiir.panogvs, so bright and early the boys arose ready for the biggest hike of their lives. A start was not made until six-thir- ty when we were joined by Scout Executive Gene Hammond and D. Chas. Plummer. Scout Exec-utive Hammond led the way along the long trail and had full charge of the hike. Dr. Plummer interested the boys as he pleasantly talked to them about the Flora and Trees that we found upon the way. As we rested we learned and we will rynember many of the valuable things we saw. It proved to be a Long, Long trail for many of the boys but gradually we reached the summit and had our lunch on the saddles. Then along the side of the mountain to the Flag-sta- ff where the boys signed their names, preparatory to descending the Glacier Every boy reached the top, and every boy took the snow-slid- e. The trail back to , camp was accomplished in less time than one can imagine. Then as soon as all the boys had arrived in Camp, a big meal was served. Thus they counted that a Good Day and went to bed early. That evening we had as our visitors Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Nix, and Mr. and Mrs. Harker. Mr. Nix is connected with the Scouts of the L. D. S. church. The Bingham Scouts were the guests of the Mutual Dell people at their campfire but owing to the fact that many of them were tired only a few accepted the invitation. Next morning the Bingham Scouts were invited to have charge of the Flag-raisin- g and Inspection exercises. Scoutmaster Mitchell and Lee Sim-mons had charge of the ceremonies. Scouts Douglas Stredbeck, Mitchell Malich and Walter Mace were the Color-bearer- s. Again at Nine a. m. the Stage Line busses were in readiness to carry us down to American Fork Canyon where we stopped for a trip to the Timpan- - ogus Cave. Every boy mounted the trail and visited the cave. Then lunch was served. The next move was to Saratoga Springs,. The boys without exception went in swimming and spent the remaining hours of the afternoon in the grounds. Supper was welcome and was much enjoyed. Then the last lap of the journey was begun. Ar-riving in Bingham Canyon about nine p .m. The boys were accompanied by Scoutmaster Samuel Mitchell and Le$ Simmons, Recreational Director in the Camp. This was a most successful Scout Trip and ought to inspire every boy to become a real Scout.

CITIZENSHIP PAPERS j HELD UP ,. An esteemed young man of Bing- - ham went to Salt Lake some days ago to get his final papers for American ' citizenship. But to his surprise ano. 5, chagrin he found that a protest hui been filed, so it is said, by the sher- - ; f iff's oltice. According to our imorm-atio- n the protest was filed because r the wife of the applicant had refuse.. . to pay a certain sum of money into the county treasury because oi an ai- -' i leged charge of having violated some -- i provision oi the prohoDition law. As our information goes tne depu-- ; ties made a raid in a somewhat cruui find ruthless manner. They preferred ' a charge against a young lady and ex-- , I .' pressed a desire that she might con-- t tribute a certain sum of money to the - ' I county, and then, even though she may ' have been violating, the law she , might have a clean bill of fare to con-tinue. But the young lady denied be-- - ing guilty of the charge and deudeti - . to exercise her lawful right to triai instead of yielding to the unlawim compromise which might have had the color of compounding a felony. Had she. yielded and paid, the de-'- .. - - sired fee then she would have be a good Indian, so to speak, and worthy ' of the kindest consideration. Bui v. when she wanted a trial to test.hei guilt or innocence she at once became a bad actor in the eyes of the guar-- . !. . (liana of the law, and with a campaigi. .L- - m, oi frightf ulness they go so far in the revenge matter as to protest against , . her husband receiving, his. second pa-pers. And all this because one little lady declined to say she was guilt) and pay a certain sum which, the coun ' ; ty wanted T So now the way things ; stand the citizenship papers are hell y up until this little lady , can go to trial. - . MARKHAM LADIES GETJUSY Thursday morning about 11 o'clock some of the ladies of Markham no-ticed smoke issuing from a coal shed on the side of a house in the rear of the Harry McNeeley apartment, and realizing what a fire meant in that district Mrs. Hartman, Mrs. Parker and the Misses Mamie Robbins and Ethel Watkins immediately got ou. the fire hose kept in that district by the city, connected up with the water mains and had the fire subdued before the arrival of the volunteer fire fight-ers, altho they were timely. It is said children playing with matches was the cause of the- - outbreak. We congratulate these ladies on their fire fighting abilities. The NewPlayhouse Mr. J. E. Kerikas, of the new Isis Theatre wishes to announce the build-ing will not be completed in time for the opening of the showhouse at the former date announced.
