Itend the Resume of tho Results of llie Recent Tidal Wnve of Prosperity. THE HANDWRITING ON THE WALL. Two Millions of Real Estate Bales in Two Weeks New Enterprises New Buildings Our Advantages. Could the 6hades of the departed founders of the city of Salt Luke return to earth long enough to make a cursory examination of matters as they now stand, they would doubtless exclaim in the vernacular of the surprised New Englander on his first visit to New York City, "What works! What works!" That the shades aforesaid would be greatly surprised beyond a doubt, is a mild ex-pression to line in this connection. Beyond peradventure, thore was never a city in the union that has changed, as has Salt Lake, from a sleepy overgrown leading dealers, the demand ia not con-fined to outside realty alone, but con-siderable inquiry exists for inside resi-dence and business property. Prospect-ive investors throng the offices by dozens, and the columns of the dally papers nre eagerly scanned for bargains. This inquiry is not entirely from parties who are in the oily, but from all over the union come loiters from those eager to invest. During tho Inst threo days Tab Times office hns received not less than thirty of these from would-b- e buyers abroad asking for copies of the paper and information regarding values. HUILD1NGS. Considerable has been said of late re-garding buildings, and the press of the city has froquontly alluded to the fact that there is a lamentable lack of for parties who ooruo here to locate, while evon the transient pub-lic are oeinpelled ta bunk on, cots or cure upon blankets in the hallways of the hotels. This last dilliculty will soon ba rowed icd as HOTEL ACOOMMOBATIONS are being increased as rapidly as pos-sible. Work on the new dollar house on Third South is being rapidly pushed, and tho building will be oompleted as soon as possible. The mammoth caravansary on the west side which will also cost in tho neighborhood of $1,000,000, will be finished as rnpidly as the work enn be pushed. In addition ferent parts ot the city. Say, lot me toll you something. Homebody ought to go to making brick right away. We need thetu badly just now, for material is scarce." A MINIM EXCHANGE. What Tub Times hns advocated for sometime has been a mining exchange. And the matter has been strongly urged since The Times llrst menlionod the subject until now it is almost an assured fact that in the near future the prelimi-nary steps will be taken nnd the organi-zation nssurod. And when this is done it is fair to prosume that a large Bmoltor will be the result. Salt Lake City would be greatly benefitted by the building nnd operation of an establishment liko the Omaha & Grant smelter at Omaha which employs 1200 men constantly. And there is no reason why one should not do a good business here. Fuel is urn oh oheaper than in Omaha and the oost of transporting ores over long dis-tances would be avoided. The employ-ment of 800 or 1000 men would be nn inoreaso from 3000 to 4CO0 in population as laborers and artisians employod in smeltiag works nre gonerully men of families. This addition to Salt Lake's body politio would bo of great impor-tance, and the increase in local trado would be porceptibly better. NEW ENTERPRISES. Among the new entorprisesbulletinod, Btib-ros- for the city is the following: The Nave McCjrd Mercantile Company of Kansas City, St. Louis, St. Joseph, Omaha and Atchison propose to estab-lish a branch house in Zion. Anyone acquainted with the business of this firm will nt once renlize that the establish-ment will by no means be a small one, nnd its effect will be greatly appreciated by the merchants who are already tired of paying high rates of freight on goods. The latest stroke of enterprise is on the part of a New York man who on Thursday, purchased of a leading real estate firm forty ncros south of the city which will be dovoted exclusively to the raising of poultry and eggs. It will be the largest poultry firm in the west nnd second to Olney lira's similar establish-ment just outside Poughkeepsie. N. Y. The owner is satisfied thnt in a very laved with the best material obtainable, of which Utah hns a rich and abundant storoi The Times' war-cr- y is, "The mud must go," and to that end it is proposed to tight the question out on this line if it takos all summer or even longer. SALT LAKE'S ADVANTAGES. With the situation as it now appears it is a wonder that the rush is not greater even. And when the new Real Estate Exchange gets in good working order, some very rare developments may be looked for. Salt Lake city is prettv well advertised even now, but there yet remains much to do in that line. For the benofitof the mnny thousand readers abroad who will read this issue of The Times, the following will not be out of place, being a summary of the advan-tages possessed by the city and contigu-ous territory: Salt Lake City is the capital of Utah and the metropolis of the vast expanse of fertile country lying between the two great divides of the continent. Salt Lake City has 50,000 people nnd by Christmas will be a city of over 75,000 population. This is a moderate esti-mate. Salt Lake City hns the finest climate in America, the sun Bhining every day in the year. Salt Lake City is situated in the midst of tne finost agricultural valley in the United States, where the peaches, pears, apples and grapes grow to almost fab-ulous size and where every known veg-etable in the temperate zone flourishes in rich profusion. Being in the midst of a great cattle country the finest meats are here ob-tainable. Conl can be purchased at from $2.50 to $5.50 per ton. Tho cost of living is lower than in any other city west of Pittsburg, Pa. It is the greatest resort on earth, be-ing situate on the shores of the Dead Sea of America, 100 miles long by sixty wido, which is dotted with innumerable islands of rare and pictuiesque beauty. It is adjacent to tho richest silver min-ing district in the United States. It hns seven railroads leading to nil parts of the country. It has four daily newspapers. It has good schools. It has a well organized police force. Electrio cars run to all parts of the city, and are being extended daily. Salt Lake City is a hummer, and more money is being made hero than in any other town of its size in tho union. Salt Lake City has a live board of trade, a real ostato exchange, and Vill soon have a mining exchange. It hns numerous banks. It has two fine theaters. It has magnificent residences. It is one of the greatostsummer resorts in Amoricn. Then why not come to Salt Lake, make money, and be happy? village to a metropolitan city, in so Bhort a time. Where but a few short years ago the common one-stor- y adobes or the dingy frnme dwellings were tho only structures thnt greoted the eye, today largo business blocks, elegantly con-structed, nre seon. The dirt paths along the street are supplanted by wide walks, and the patient horse which, a decade ago, wilh dilliculty hauled a littlo dingy omnibus from place to place, now con-tentedly munchos oats whilo tho electric motor dashes across the oity with its loads of humanity. And the end is not yet for thebooin, if such bo the proper .term, is not yet be-- to these two, a INow 1 orlt syndicate is negotiating for the piece ot ground near the Union Pacific depot where they will erect a y brick hoBtelry. Those interested in the scheme are very quite concerning their plans and evidently don't want to "give the details of the snnp away" just at present. DWELLINGS. As regards dwellings, the time is not far distant when they will be as plenti-ful as desired. A local syndicate which controls nearly $500,000 ef inside aud north and east bench property is ne-gotiating for the erection of one hun-dred houses at a cost of $1000 each. These when completed will do much to relieve the present pressure. Another firm hrs decided to eroct a lot of houses gun. True, immenBO quantities or real estate have changed hand, nnd in the near future it is not at all unlikely thnt many millions of dollars worth will be bought and sold, yet there are other things to follow which will go far toward making Salt Lake a business center, for not only Utah, but western Tyoming and Colorado, Idaho and Nevada. "We are going to make things fairly 'purr,' in the next few weeks," remarked a dealer to a Timer man, and if one may be permitted to judge by past results his prediction will not be far out of the way. During last week the nctnal trans-fers filed for record with the county re-corder amounted to $1,300,275; Tho transfers this week will exceed $800,000, Think of it you who used to wonder nt a real estate business of $2000 or so a week! Over a million ef dollars worth of pro-perty changing hands in six days! It's astonishing, isn't it? But these figures are bound to increase according to the statements of the thoroughly posted class, and that is still more astonishing. The constant rush of purchaser to the mnrket demands thnt something be pro-vided them. To meet the great demand NEW ADDITIONS are being platted as rapidly as possible. A party of surveyors is now actively en-gaged in laying out a tract on the west side, which when platted will be dropped on the mnrket nt figures which will sur-prise some bedy when they nre quoted in The Times. A similar party is actively engaged on the south side, and the own-ers also promise nn innovation iu priecs when the corpa of engineer has com-pleted its labors. Agaordinn tJ tho ttatcnjenl m the on the south side at a oost of $1200 ench, which with the price of the lot will smount to $1500. These will be sold for one-thir- d cash, the balance on time. ThiBplnnit is thought will be looked upon with great favor and others will likely pattern after the scheme. Pros-pective builders, that is to say men who will build, say that one reason the build-ing ot cottages hns been delayed is of the imperfect street car facili-ties. They contend thnt it will not pay to erect houses on outside property when there is no transit facilities and assert that if the powers that be would wake np and build up a few grades to the benohe instead ef stooping at the foot of the slope, it would be bat a short time ere the clamor for houses would be hushed. The railway companies, however, assert that Rome wasn't built in a day, and that as soon is they can get to it they Will construct to the desired points. AMONG THE ARCHITECTS. George Fisher, a leading Omaha archi-tect, who has a real deal of business here, said yesterday: "Don't give your-self any uneasiness, my boy, about build-ing, fhy ar coming all right. I have great faith in thi city and am a sort of busy man myself just at present." Other architects manifest the snme opinion and are quite sanguine. A lend-ing contractor was met this morning going up Main street looking for some-thing. "I am hunting carpenters," said be, "and I want a bricklayer or two. What am I doing? Building houses of oouree. I have two on my band now. and hm having plant drafted for it halt tn mre, whleh will b put up In dlfi short time ho will be coin money, nnd his expectations will no doubt be real-ized. The news of tho erection of the new union depot, published exclusively in yesterday's Times, is a gratifying piece of information and the fact thnt it will be begun nt once goes to show that the managers ot tho various railways fully realize the importance of the wondorf nl growth of this city and nre eager to pro-vide the ample accommodations required. The expenditure of $500,000 in the de-pot, $250,000 in the government build-ing, $100,000 for the Bank of Utah, nt loBBt $,2000,000 in hotelsandan national $2,000,000 on business blocks makes a grand total of nearly $5,000,000, in round numbers, to be invested in structures outside the amount to be spent in con-structing houses which will' probably not fall Bhort of a round million. And when the croaker for there are a few in the city, talk about the business of Salt Lake being on a foundation of sand, the quotation of the above figures, whicn aro reliable, may tend to silence their doleful waitings. A city that ex-pends over $5,000,000 in ono season in buildings alone is not likely to fall be-hind to nny alarming extent. PAVING. Last, but not least by any monnp, is the paving question. By the ides of No-vember, the principal streets of Zion will be, beyond doubt, iu good condition. As is Usual in matters pertaining to public improvement, Tub Times is found in the front rank, and Commercial street which tn time will be the Chetipaidu of tho pity, ftpd oa which tbo headquarter ot Tun TMM enmpsnv hm Iponted, wjlf h To Tourists and Visitors to Salt Lake.
