saloon two miles south of Hunny

smtnlnod, nnd!. thU would seem to
leavo no legal Impediment to the
granting ot tho license to l'n torn ou

had on tho petition for writ of man

this caso has boon set down for

court at Trice. AUorncy Woolloy
ot Mantl represented County Clerk
Plot-son on tho hoarlngs. Tho coun
ty commissioners woro represented
by Attornoy lloppnugh ot Bait hako

i would bo men who would bo nctitn
ted by pure motives, nnd who would
have a proper regard for the prop
vrty rights and moral welfare of tho
communities within their respective
Jurisdiction. Ktory mlnlnj; Interest,
and every mining community In Cat
bon county, nre opposed to tho
granting of licenses to "sage brush"
saloons, for tho reason that be
cause of their Isolated location they
become public nuisances, nml thin
Is particularly true whero the li
censee has no regard for tho com
munity wolfnro, and possesses no
respect for tho laws onnctod for the
regulation of thu liquor traffic.
I'aternostcr operated a saloon In
Carbon county for n full yenr with
out taking out any llconso whatso
ever, while Dltimentl has been ro
poatedly prosecuted for grand lar
ceny. With thoso facts utarlng
them In the face, Commissioners
Sharp and Hamilton found both of
tho applicants to bo of good moral
character, and ugalnst tho protests
of tho mining companies directed
tho licenses to Issue. County Clerk
1'lorson refused to grant the li
censes, unions directed so to do by
tho Judgo of tho district court. This
direction has now been given as to
I'aternostcr, nml ho has In course
of construction u saloon located
moro than two mllen by the nearest
traveled route from any town or
village.
Tho legislature having vested
such discretion In tho board of
county commissioners, Die court haa
boon compollod to hold that It Is
boyond thu province of tho courts tn
Interfere. During the rocent cam
paign promise was made by Com
missioner Joe Sharp thnt all such
licenses appllod for would be Issued
In tho suburbs of the mining camps
of Carbon county, In consequence of
which pledge Sharp rocolved tho
vote of the "dlvo" clemont, nml In
return his discretion has been ex
erolseil In the manner Indlcatod.
