SALT LAE CITY.
A MOTE 15 THE RIGHT DIRECTION
HI ITS LEADING CITIZENS.
An Address to the Public Which Really
Under*Estimates the Social, Commer
cial and Climatic Advantages of the
Great Rocky Mountain Health Resort.
The atep just taken by the Salt
Lake Chamber of Commerce, in onus
ing to be prepared, for wide circula
tion, a statement letting forth some
of the advantages which their city
offers to those seeking homes or de
sirable investments, will undoubtedly
prove very benefioial, as it will tend
to make the place much better and
more favorably known than it ia at
present, and thus induce many to visit
it who would otherwise scarcely have
thought of doing so. The following
portions of the address are reprinted
by request, free of charge—the Times
being always willing to assist neigh
boring communities in every possible
way:
The first consideration at this time
which possesses the greatest interest
for the citizens of your valley cities,
is the delightful climate we enjoy in
Utah. During the summer months
we find no necessity of traveling to
the seaside in search of cooling
breezes. Our mean temperature is
74 degrees, but our dry atmosphere
reduces this, in effect, several degrees.
We have more days of sunshine than
any other city in the United States,
our nights ate cool without exception,
and tourists and others who have vis
ited and lived on the much-vaunted
California slopes assert that our cli
mate excels that of Los Angeles in
the purity and dryness of the atmos
phere. Our city is the loveliest of its
size on the American Continent, both
in location, general appearance, and
surroundings, and our pleasure resorts
on the beach of Salt Lake are said to
possess more attractions than any cn
your Atlantic coast. As a bathing
place, the "Dead Sea of America" is
said to excel not only the oceans
bounding our continent, but the Adri
atic, Mediterranean, or any of the
famous resorts of the sunny climes of
Europe.
The fame of Denver is associated
with the shade in which its beautiful
residences are embowered, but the
foliage that embowers Salt Latte
homes is of such indescribable rich
ness and variety that it must be seen
to he appreciated.
For a home, there is not a place
that offers so many inducements as
Salt Lake City. And we have many
lovely homes, palaces and cottages,
but cottages of such surpassing beauty
and exquisite loveliness as it would
seem only a poet's fancy could paint.
But it is not only homes that we
have to offer. Our mountains are rich
in mineral, many mines within but a
few miles of our city being among the
richest and most productive of the
West. Progress in their development
has been slow, owing to circumstances
which it is unnecessary to detail, but
with every obstacle they have yielded
up to date about $100,000,000. Cap
ital is needed for their further devel
opment, and like the other States and
Territories of the West, we are forced
to turn to the East for assistance in
developing these resources.
In Iron county we have inexhausti
ble mountains of the finest iron in the
world, and there, as in nearly every
other county of the Territory, the -coal
supply is unlimited, some of the mines
already opened showing veins 100
feet thick, and material enough to
supply fifty generations.
For agriculture our valleys have no
equals. Wheat, corn, barley and oats
grow more luxuriantly than on the
fertile plains of Illinois, Ohio, Indiana
or Missouri, Vegetables of every va
riety, and of the finest quality, includ
ing the famous Utah potato, are sold
in our markets by the industrious set
tlers cf our neighboring valleys. In
the southern part of the Territory
oranges and other tropical fruits cad
be raised, but further north, and in
the immediate vicinity of our city,
grow fruits of every description which
surpass in flavor those of California,
though in some cases the California
product presents a finer appearance.
Stock interests flourish here to a
large extent, but sheep-raising has
received greater attention, and the
annual wool clip will reach about
8,000,000 pounds.
We have stone quarries close at
hand, yielding the finest and hand
somest quality of building material;
the Mormon Temple being construct
ed of gray granite found at our doors,
and our brown stone is superior both
in quality and appearance to that of
which Fifth Avenue (New York) pal
aces are constructed. We have clays
of every variety, and can manufacture
brick and cements equal it not supe
rior to any sold in Eastern markets.
In a word, we possess within ourselves
resources that not only make us inde
pendent of the East or West, but
would enable us to produce, with the
investment of sufficient capital, sup
plies of every kind for the vast terri
tories which should pay us tribute.
I'alika Denver, which, it might be
said, has but New Mexico to supply,
we have the vast miueral and agricul
tural districts to the south, as far as
the Mexican border and beyond, and
to the north as far as Portland, Ore
gon, Idaho, Montana, and the other
territories extending to the northwest.
We have an abundance of water
in the shape of mountain streams and
rivers which render irrigation easy,
and artesian wells sunk on the mount
ain slopes or lake-levels yield a plen
tiful supply. Natural gas baa been
discovered in elose proximity to the
oity, and oil, though little prospected
for, has also been discovered in differ
ent places, proving that it may also
bs found in our neighborhood.
There is not an article of necessity
that we cannot manufacture with fa
cility, and a bountiful nature has lav
ished more luxuries upon us than we
oan exhaust unaided.
There can be no exaggeration in
regard to our resources. We have
considerable railroad facilities, and
are promised more, but with our vast
advantages the world knows us only
as the capital of Mormonism. To the
foreigner or stranger Salt Lake City
has merely been a dime museum of
Mormon curiosities. We have been
visited by the curious rather than the
home-seeker, capitalist or speculator,
but the people have awakened to a
sense of their past position and are
desirous of presenting other claims
for recognition. Other States and
Territories less favored, have asked
and are still asking for National or
State aid in the development of th.-ir
resources. Utah has received no such
aid, and on its merchants alone has
devolved the duty of advancing and
fostering its interests.
We have the beauty and grandeur
of nature, the attractions of our
mountains, and our lakes and health
imparting springs to offer to those
who come amongst us. We have the
wealth of our mountains still only un
covered, we have materials for every
class of manufacture, and the pret
tiest city and loveliest homes on the
continent. Our city is the entrepot
between Denver and San Francisco,
and should be as good a market for
the territory tributary to it as the
former for Colorado or the latter for
California
In fact, there ?s no point I
west of St. Louis that enjoys our fa
cilities for manufacturing; and for |
agriculture, climate, fruit and natural
attractions, Salt Lake valley has no
rival in the United States.
The opportunities afforded for the
safe and lucrative investment of cap
ital are greater than those presented
by any other city. The valleys north
and south are covered with abundant
crops of all kinds; there are hundreds
of mining districts which turn to Salt
Lake City for supplies, and fortunate
mining operators are beginning to
realize that the product of their bo
nanaas can nowhere be invested with
better profit than in the capital of the
Territory. The mines of Colorado
built Denver, and what has she that
we do not possess? We have not
only gold, silver and lead, but the
best supply of manufacturing iron
and coal in the West, or in the world,
according to the testimony of the
ablest geologists and mineralogists.
Values are increasing; rapid progress
is made; westward rolls the tide of
emigration, as it has been rolling for
years and building up the cities and
settlements of the plains and mount
ains. Our day has arrived, and we
can say with candor and truth that
we have more inducements to offer
to capital than any city west of the
Mississippi at the present time.
Was It a Mistake I
A Nebraska farmer named Hiram
Schoonover, whoBe melon patch has
been subjected to nocturnal raids,
watched last Sunday night with a
musket loaded with buckshot. Hear
ing a noise in an adjoining oornfield,
he turned his artillery loose, and suc
ceeded in bagging his mother-in-law,
Mrs. Mary J. Sloss, aged 67 years.
She had been gathering green corn
for the table. Schoonover claims that
he mistook his mother-in law for a
skunk. He bears a fair reputation,
but his story is hardly believed, as
there are reports of family trouble.
Mrs. Sloss wanted her will drawn re
cently, as she was afraid that Schoon
over would kill her, and she did not
want to leave any property to him.
The Hand He Loved the Best.
'No longer trifling may I atand;
'Tia lodge-night, aa you know;
Cling not ao with that little hand;
I'm aorry, but mnat go.
' The hand la aoft aa e'er I saw,
Aa aott and white aa wool;
But give me. when I come to draw,
A hand that's celled a fall.
* You're fair, my love, when to your cheek
There cornea the fleeting blush.
Tot fairer still is what I seek—
It's called a royal flush."
Bo spake the club man at the door,
Nor heeded wifely arts
To keep him home —said this and more—
Ungallant knave of hearts.
