Manufacturing shows an increase, particularly in the line of sugar, a fourth and so far the largest factory being now in course of construction on Bear river at the cost of $1,000,000. Water power is also increasing, a $250,000 plant is also under construction in the same vicinity. .Irrigation projects are just now prospering, and the legislature at its last session is believed to have removed the difficulties in the way of receiving aid under the Federal law, and the state is put under a system of water control which will in the near future increase the areas irrigated by The immigration outlook is very hopeful. The opening of the Uintah Indian reservation next fall will add materially to the unoccupied irrigable lands open to settlers under the homestead law and must add new numbers of desirable citizens to the state. In this city building is quite active, all the labor trades being in full demand. New residences are going up in every direction from the center of the city and street paving is being extended on one-thir- d. east and west streets. Jobbing trades report increased sales, the largest hardware concern at this point has doubled its capital and the grocery lines have Increased their capital fifty per cent. Real estate is looking up. Outside lots which have been a drag for twelve years, are now selling at fair prices. In short, besides better weather, fresh poetry, newly ' that every stroke of the hammer, to your ears, echoed the name of the girl you were thinking most about. You know that you took the trip to California solely because she was one of the party, you know you were never happy when she was out of your sight; you know the fierce jealousy which raged in your heart when she avoided you and accepted even the most trivial attention from any other man. You know it was a miserable trip for you, because she was cold towards you and you know the fierce passions of unrequited love which surged in your heartyou know that when she seemed kind you were elevated to the seventh heaven of delight and when she was careless and indifferent you were thrust down to the depths of Avernus. You know that her image was constantly before you in your waking hours and haunted you in dreams when you slept. You were driven to desperation and ready to seize on anything however absurd, which would, or which you thought would, relieve your anguish. If you had been of a noble nature you would have found a noble You but you didnt. revenge, ventured wrath your might have on the man whom you thought had wronged you; on your supposed rival, but you didnt.

Now, honestly, dont you think you are a good deal of a scrub? You cant very long keep up the role you have assumed. You cannot even be gfreat in dishonor.

Three weeks ago Truth directed attention to the venomous attack made by the Logan Republican on the financial condition of this city. After waiting until he thought the matter had faded out of the minds of the public, the editor of the journal mentioned destroys another column of space which might be made valuable in, what is meant to be a justification of the action of which we complained. He begins by alluding to the writer of the expression in Truth as a pale grey ass, designates him as a squirrelheaded specimen, describes him as a confirmed dyspetic and concludes by calling him a dope fiend. No attempt is made at justifying the article which declared this city bankrupt It is just such an article as one might reasonably expect from a person of the build and composition of the prodigy who writes the matter for the sheet mentioned. Truth will not attempt to reply in kind, because whatever this paper may be in the way of a caustic critic of things Improper, it has never attempted and never will attempt to engage in combat with a sewer outlet, fashnor grapple in ion witn a garbage can. We criticised this prevaricator for misrepresenting conditions in Salt Lake City; wilfully and with apparent malice toward the town, and he has made no effort to place himself right before the people. Instead he heaps abuse on those who had the right to score him for his untruthfulness . and thinks this sort of conduct will palliate his offense. Once more Truth directs . attention to the fact that this fellow is an enemy to this city and its enterprises, and suggests to those who may think of encouraging him by contributing to his support that they take. a second thought and leave catch-as-catch-c- him alone. an . |
