Show BOOM SALT LAKE. So it is to be a white Christmas. The signs are all filled with promise this year promise of good for next year. It is as if the Fates were saying: say-ing: "It is filled with blessings, all for you." The decree has gone forth: "Make Salt Lake a great city!" and the response comes from every side: "All right." The railroads are speaking in potential tones. Three already center here; three or four more are pressing this way, and it all means that in the clear judgment of railroad kings this is to be a commercial capital that no transcontinental trans-continental railroad can afford to miss. The sugar interest centers here; in one year more there will not be such another mining center from the Arctic Arc-tic circle to Patagonia as Salt Lake City. It will not much longer be necessary to boom Salt Lake; it will boom itself, and wise men should get aboard before that long-waited-for whistle blows. |
