Show ATTEi CHURCH Sabbath Day in Bingham Canyon Is Quiet as Result of Absence of Law's Arms. According to reports the three sheriffs sher-iffs of Bingham Canyon are real church folks, for it is claimed they leave the camp every Sunday morning morn-ing for parts unknown, and being it is claimed that Sunday is the day for going to church, it is the consensus of opinion that the three are elsewhere else-where attending services. It has been suggested that a prize be given to the person sending in the -correct solution as to the whereabouts where-abouts on a Sunday of the three sheriffs sher-iffs who are supposed, according to Teports, to be in Bingham Canyon in the discharge of their duties. All those wishing to compete for the prize are requested to send their solution to the office of the Sons of Rest and Never Sweats, from which place suitable suit-able prizes will be awarded. A call to the sheriff's office Sunday is said to have revealed the fact that all three custodians of the law were away from town, that it is alleged to be a regular Sunday occurrence, and that it is a known fact among the folks of the camp that this condition exists. A phone call to a questionable establishment es-tablishment in Copperfield is said to have revealed the fact that the party answering the phone knew enough to tell to alleged seekers of information that the sheriff of that district is in Salt Lake ,and that he goes in every ' Sunday. The same thing is alleged to have occurred in Highland Boy. It is the consensus of opinion that if people are paid to work seven days a week, they are supposed to do so, unless they are docked for the day in which they are alleged to be in church. Bingham Canyon has always been a law abiding community, and especially especial-ly on Sunday, and for the first time in the history of the camp the reason ' is alleged' to' nave been discovered." Knowing there are no sheriffs in Bingham Canyon, the natives would fain refrain from wrong doing it is said. Many people of Bingham Can on are wondering why so many sheriffs are needed in Bingham Canyon, it is said, but it is claimed that only one is SUPPOSED TO BE HERE AT A TIME. The other two are supposed sup-posed to be in Highland Boy and Copperfield respectively. "Something is wrong," said one resident res-ident of the camp, "because Pay Day I saw all three of them from early evening until late at night in Lower Bingham Canyon." "Don't they ever have a pay day in Copperfield or Highland Boy?" Another prize is also to be given it is said, to the person per-son sending in the correct answer to this question. |
