Tug Commmmial does not desire to interfere in any degree with the effqrts of the Chamber of Commerce, or those of any committee thereof. That body now is at work with an energy and spirit that prouiiHos most excellent results for the city. Ita committee having In charge the furtherance of the iron works enterprise ia capable of performing ita function. ably and effectively. There is reason to anticipate a success from this undertakand ing thnt will be in its 'effects. Tub Commeih ial is disposed to tbinlj thnt this is the key movement to very lw'ce industrial developments in the near future, when it is known by actual experiment that superior iron can be produced here at a cost that assures a handsome profit. All who have examined the facta already ascertained feel certain now that this can be done. But when it is being done oil doubt ends at home and abroad. Hence the grent thing to do is to make n demonstration. This need not be done on n very largo scale. It a small plant can produce the best of pig irou at 813 per ton, or even ?J0, that settles it Those prices assure a market A larger plant can turn out iron even more cheaply, nnd that there is ctually a mountain of the best ore in one body within less than iiu hour's run from the city is certain, not to mention other mines of inexhaustible deposits even t nearer. Let the truth be proved once, and capital, to any desired limit, will take hold without hesitation. The thing should be proved a success as soon aa possible and it should be done exclusively by Ogden. t g Thk raising of sugar beets in Utah promises to become a prominent feature in agriculture. There will be ' an improvement in other branches of agriculture in the coming seasons. The cities and towns of Utah have made wonderful advancement within the part two years, attracting business and professional men and capital from the cast The farmers of the country are looking toward the west and particularly to Utah.

While some of the regions named may have rich resources in farm and orchard; aui whila others may give promise of large manufacturing industries, the mining intercut is the chief one urging on to these railroad operations, pending or proposed. It is well to bear this in mind; it is well to understand that the railroads, rompted as they are by a desire for arge dividends, appreciate the magni tude ol our mining interests and show a willingness to put their hard cash into ties and rails and cars with a knowledge of the business that is awaiting them. In spite of the scarcity of money, and in spite of the check to railroad building in other states, they are ready to branch out into a new country where no immediate trallic is awaiting them, realizing as all shrewd men must that the conditions for an immense traf tic exist and that the early bird catches tne worm. These facts have an immediate bear ing upon our prosperity. It is folly to expect permanent growth and wealth from incidental causes while we neglect the main source. Activity in this one will auicken the activity in all the oth ers by contact nnd sympathy. It is time we learn a lesson from the railroads that are quick to see an advantage when it presents itself.

Denver Times: Foster New York Sun: Will the Kansas senate adopt the female suffrage bill which has just passed the house ? It is the most comprehensive measure of the kind that has ever received the approval of one branch of any state legislature. It not only confers upon women the right of voting in all elections, but also the right of holding any office in the government of the state; and there is no doubt that if it became law the women of Kansas would take advantage of it, as they had taken advantage of the state law which empowers them to vote in municipal elections. But as the bill originated from the farmers' alliance, it is verv sure to be defeated in the senate.
