No l'ajor, lUiil Estate Boom, But A Woolen Factory Opera House, Etc Etc. ' We have never favored booms or booming, which is nothing more or less than a real estate inflation and a gambling in real estate, the most shrewd coming out winner and those of a less futile brain the looser; or perhaps it could be put this way; the lucky player who knows, or can guess, just how and when to deal, is the winner, and the looser the man who fails to catch on to the vantage deal, or catching on, does so after the turn and is left. Thousands have lost all they had in real estate speculation in the Wes-tern boom towns, and been rendered as miserable, and their family suffer ed as much from the consequences, way the list is running up in figures, that point will not he long before it is reached. The location of the building has! not yet been decided, but the gen-eral opinion is that the former sug-gestions of the Rkcister were about correct, '. e. on Main street ar.y place between the two Co-o- p stores, or on Center street not more than one block east of Main. The very best location would be the vacant corner North of the Tabernacle, next the North side of Bp. Dorius, lot bordering on the Tabernacle block, on H. F. Larson's lot, or the South, part of the Central School, House lot. Next in point of merit would be Pres. Feterson's property, front on Centre street, or Mr. Green's lot fronting on Main. There will shortly be a meeting of the subset ibers called and we hope there will be a general turn out and this needed enterprise pushed with vigor. electric' lights. Estimates have been made by two different parties looking forward to the putting in of a plant to light the city, with electricity. The parties who are figuring on this, are enter-prising men, and their success of the scheme is almost assured, espec-ially of the city fathers will take some steps in the matter, which they most likely will, if the plant is once put in individuals can be fur-nished with electric lights, cheaper than coal oil. The Register wishes this enterprise success. ACRA1N ELEVATOR. The stockholders of the Climax Mill can see the necessity of a grain elevator to take care of the immense as though they had lost it at the gaming table. For these reasons in part we cannot encourage or tol-erate a "boom" according to the accepted meaning of the term, but a substantial growth of industry and enterprise,termed by somea"booin" we can indorse, and are pleased to note such. Accordingly we will proceed to write up Ephraim's prospective "boom." A WOOLEN FACTORY. To be able to place this caption to the first article on the list is indeed great pleasure. A woolen factory is sometning tins county stands in need of, and some of the leading men of Ephraim have made a start that will, before the end of the year we predict, give this town a woolen mill "boom" of sufficient capacity to out Up til the real estate"booms" in San Pete, whether they have been advertised East or West. The ball for this enterprise was set railing some months ago, when every factory of any importance in1 Utah were communicated with for statistics that would assist a company here in forming some estimates of probable cast, and also of the num-ber of hands that might possible be employed in working up our raw material into cloth. To these let-ters came very polite and explicit answers, and in some cases was kindly offers to assist with other in-formation in getting the enterprise! underway. At the same time Mr. Ole Larson was requested to make an estimate of the water power that could be secured, which he did, .and proved it to be sufficient for all ,- being fully 85 horse power. . : The scheme has been laying i. a lull for a short time, . only to be revived with renewed energy. During Mr. Larson's absence south he. has visited the Kingston Woolen Mills, also those at Long Vallev. In ,the former place he found a mill costing only $10,000 which was employing 18 persons and turning out a good grade of cloth. At the latter place he found a small mil' of about the same capacity, which was offered for sale. On his return he reported these facts to those interested, which resulted in the calling of the meeting amount of grain they are handling. In order to accomodate their trade, they are talking of putting up a grain elevator of 25,000 bushels capacity. The elevator will most likely be ready for use by the fall thresh- - This building will use not less than 80,000 feet of lumber, and the proposed factory, 100,000 feet. This will keep all the Ephraim Mills busy this year. BU1LD1KC. Considerable building is spoken of for the season, and some has has already started. Messrs. Lar-son & Co., have began the erection of their new work shop, half a block east of the Register office. The building will be two stories (18 ft.) high with a neat storeroom i.i front, office and store room at the back, and a work shop up stairs, for fin-ishing fine work. In connection with the shop they will run the mill just one block east where they intend to do their principal shop work. The front of the building will be ornamental, they intend none to be nicer in finish. The store room in front will be stocked with Furniture and articles used by them their trade as contractors and builders. The firm consists of Ole Larson, Andreas Olson and Andrew Foulson. and will follow a general woodwork-ing establishment, furniture and cabinetwarc, besides being general contractors and builders. Mr.- Niels Thompson's beautiful residence will also be completed, and several other residences erected. r. g. w. depot In summing up the probablilies, the Railroad depot was almost omitted. This will certainly be commenced soon, as the railroad people will hardly break faith with the citizens of this town, and the 'depot was one of the conditions on which the depot grounds were given to the company, hence we feel per-fectly safe in saying that this too is on the tapis for this summer. ' We don't wish to brag, and above all we don't desire to "boom" Eph-raim, but doesn't the whole appear as though if we don't advertite in Colorado, and other parts, that we were really going to have a little prosperity while our big sisters were werkir.glor a "boDm," Ephraim was going to have a genuine "boom." to consider the matter. ' On Thursday evening the 17th.. a number of Ephraim's citizens assem-bled at the residence of Fres. Feter-son, and after hearing Mr. Larson's report, formed a temporary organ-ization by electing Hon. A. H. Lund.Prest. and C. W. Feterson, Secretary. The investigation committee was formed of Messrs Ole Larson, Erastus Willardson and C W. Peter son, whose duty was to investigate the power and engage county Sur-veyor Hotigaard to make a survey, when they will report, and another meeting will be called to form a perrninent organization, to which all will be invited who are interested, and solicited to subscribe stock. The general expression of the gentlemen present was that they did not want to buy a second hand fac-tory; they wanted one bran new, with the machinery of the latest and most approved pattern and worth not less than $25,000. A perliminary survey was to be made by Messrs. Larson & Willardson and Hougaard set right to work on the final survey of a mill race. A good deal of stock was subscrib-ed that night, and it is quite certain that $25, 000 or even more, will be speedily taken when the scheme as-- sutnes j a definite shape. We rejoice at this move,it is some thing that San Pete has needed for a long time, and the initial town to furnish the citizens of the"Granary of Utak" with labor furnishing e. terprues deserve to b crowned with a laurel wreath. THE OPERA HOUSE. A supscription list has been cir-culating and over S3ooohare already been subscribed towards building a first-clas- s Opera House. The in-tention of the fornicators of this scheme is to build and furnish a house worth about 5,000 and the EPHRAIM CO-OPERATI-VE HMERCANTILE : INSTITUTION: & North and South Dry dwli of all descriptions..'

One of the largest woolen mills of Utah has turned its attention to the California trade and with little effect has succeeded in disposing of the bulk of this season's product in San Fraacisco at prices considerably in' advance of what could be secured either in this city' or in the east. Most of the goods to be sent west consists of new lines of guiting which are being produce here in very de-sirable styles and patterns.
