Show SUSTAIN HOME ENTERPRISE. Much has been done to develop this Territorj- a great deal more thin is often justly rcf-o!iizol; an-l there is yet plenty of labor before ih all, if vre would faithfully do our share in the gr;at work of internal development. The Territory is not p'or. Does wealth consist only in a few prombes to pay circulating freely around? They are handy; they are useful, and they expedite business transactions. But are tbry anything more than the representatives of property? Utah-to-day, is as rich a.s she ever was richer, for her material wealth is daily isereaing. And although money is not at present over plentiful, there is more in circulation than most peeple imagine. Co down to the depot of the U. C. R. 11, and see the goods brought in by rail; go up to Ogden and see the quantity Lm led at the U. C. depot there, from the cast and wist, and then 'a; k where the money is found to buy and pay for them; for business men in New York, Chicago, St Louis and San FraneisCD do not take squashes an 1 carrots in pay ? It docs not require much arithmetic to figure it up, that the money circulated in Utah, and was paid by the people to thrwe who sent for the goods, or that it is circulating to-day and will be paid to them, while other money will take its place and the great circu-'. circu-'. lation process be continued. Sustain home enterprise-". It will help to make money, and help to keep money in the country. We intend to labor in this direction ; but while we sustain home enterprises we wish those interested in them to sustain home papers. Be con.-istent. .Men will talk of not being sustained at homo in their business, avocations or enterprises, enter-prises, who think they are conferring a special favor on printers, editors and others connected with homo papers if they sub.-cribc at all, and pay the poorest kind of pay they can scare up, while they will ."end "the grand cash."' east for the trashiest of trashy novels, novelettes and papers. ow, gentlemen, gentle-men, let us try the reciprocal policy. While you expect us to perform a duty in advocating measures that will bene-lit bene-lit the community as a whole, and yourselves individually, do not expect that wo can spend time in laboring for your good without receiving any just compel. s:it ion. Do n.it think we are getting off a begging article. If our labors can be of benefit, the wider our paper is circulated cir-culated the more good we can accomplish; accom-plish; and the larger our circulation the more power we would have to do good. Homo papers are not patronised patron-ised nor. paid for as th -y should be. We would iike to see the Jucenik JuMruct-v and DiS'nt Je)'-s have a circulation double their pre.-ent number. num-ber. 'We hope to run the circulation of the IIer.u.d up to a magnitude that might indicate an over sanguine disposition if the figure was stated ; but we wish it to be done by legitimate enterprise, by attention to business, by labor and energy in making a good and acceptable paper. Under these circumstances, as a means of mutual benefit, we ask men engaged in home enterprises to sustain this home enterprise, and all to work un'ueJiy in different ways ibr each other's benefit and the welfare of the comumn'ty. And we beg to s-ajge-t that this stale cry of ''hard times" ought, in t lie language of Hanis' Teutoniealities to be "played ou-et." |
