Show I ' THE SALT LAKE TIMES. TTTTTRSn AY TTTI.T 1? I.QOfl 3 TRUTH IN H!GH"PLACE3. "" A CcmgreMnn Deal. In Cold ract. That Kelate to the Labor Question. The following excerpts are selected from a recent speech delivered by Con-gressman Turner in the house of repre-sentatives: "If the American operative gets more than he did twenty-fiv- e years ago, ha produces more and he gets more for the very simple reason that he earns more." "There is still another and, in my judgment, more potent factor in the ad-vance which labor has made, and that is the workingmen's organizations. It is not labor, but organized labor, that has commanded the attention and won the respect of the capitalists of the country. Every advance that labor has made, every step further in the march of civili-sation, every added dollar to the wages of the day's toil, every minute stricken from the hours of toil, have been the re-sults of hard fought battles, won by or-ganized labor , against capital, often against organized capital." "To the bravo and fearless men who have sacrificed time and money and po-sition in organizing labor, in defending its interests, in claiming for the labor man at least a small share of all the blessings of advancing civilization to these men and to the workingmen them-selves is due the credit of every victory that labor has ever won, and there are small thanks duo to the capitalist.wheth-e- r individual or corporation, who has yielded only as little as he could, and that when absolutely compelled to." "But the very fact that labor organi-zation is necessary in this country shows the onward strides of the money power. Thirty years ago labor was fairly com-pensated, with little or no friction be-tween the employer and the employed. Labor that formerly rested in peace, secure in the thought that in tliis land of the free a day's toil commanded a day's pay, now sleeps upon its arms, a vast, an organized, a disciplined and a watchful army, seeking, not undue ad-vantage, but maintaining itself as best it can against the encroachments of the money power of this land." "In every manufacturing town, in all our great cities, upon every railroad in this great laud, by the looms of every mill, beside the forge of every workshop stand today thousands of wage workers who are wage workers only; who have no hope or ambition of being other than they are; who cannot earn enough to educate their children; who are without the sympathy of their employers, and who have no hope of any change in their condition unless it be a change of degree and not of kind that is, they may hope for shorter hours or better pay, but they cannot and do not expect to be anything other than they are." -- When You Can Buy 4 Lots in Davis, Sharp & Stringer's CORNER OF SECOND WEST AND TENTH SOUTH, On small Cash Payment, and within 30 days after Electric Car Line, already commenced, on Second West, is completed, sell 3 Lots for Profit sufficient to build on remaining Lot.

A GUIDE TO THE TOURIST. Useful Information for the Investor, th Home-Seek- er and the Visitor. Salt LakVi Location, Attraction and Climate. Garfield Beach and Other Summer Beiorta, Th city of Salt Lake has a fame whic reaches around the world. The population Is about 55.000, and Is Increasing at a rapid rato. It Is situated at the base of the Wasatch mountains in a lovely valloy, rich in agricul-tural resources and 1b eighteen miles distant fram Great Salt Lake. Its elevation above sea level is 4,350 feet. There are many points of interest to visitors in the city and near It. Here are some of them: The Temple. This magnificent cream-whit- e granite struc-ture was begun April 0, 1853. It is 100x200 feet, the walls are 100 feet high, and the towers.when completed, will be 200 feet in height. Over $8,500,000 have been expended on the Temple, and it is now nearing completion. In the same Bquare with the temple is the spa- - clous building called The Tabernacle. Here are held the services of the Mormon chnrch, and these are attended every Sunday hy immense congregations of people. both Mormon and Gentile. The structure is oval in shape, seventy-liv- o feet high and 50x150 feet in length and breadth. It has a seating capa-city of ia.000 people, and hire may be heard what Is claimed to be the finest organ in th world. Puttl once Rang in the tabernacle, and demonstrated that its acoustic powers are very tine. The Gardo House, or Amelia Palace, wad bnllt by Brighara Young who willed that it should be the residence of his favorite wile, Amelia FolBom Young, but since his death it ha been used as the official residence of dignitaries of the church. ltrigham Young's Residences, known as the e and the Lion House are structures, curious from as-sociations. These are situated in what was once Urlghani Young's domain, all of which has passed into other hands, save the largo lot in which is Brig-ha- Young's Grave. This can be reached by passing through the Eagle Gate, an archway in the old mud wall, which atonetlmeencompassod Brigham's pri- - vate property. One or two of the prophet's wives repose beshle his last resting place, A slab of granite covers the grave and there Is space left nearby for the graves of his other wives. lleseret Museum This Institution Is situated on Smith Tempie street, directly opposite Temple sqnare.

Some of the best talent in the coun-try is constantly passing between the Atlantic and the Pacific, and Salt Lake City is always made a stopping place for performances, either the opera house or the Salt Lake Theater being selected. This latter place of amuse-ment was built by Brlgham Young oyer thirty years ago. It Is a large and beautiful temple and is comfortably arranged. j Assembly Hal, near the temple, is used in winter for worship bv the Mormons, the tabernacle being too large to admit of proper heating. Assembly hall is laUxilS feet, and cost H15O.00O. The celling Is d with church pictures, among them the Angel Moroni disclosing the hiding place ct the goloen plates to Joseph Smith. The Matatorium is a large circular bathing house, the center of which under a glass roof, is a swimming pool. The water is brought in pipes from Beck's Hot Springs.

Special Correspondence. There is a split off from the Order of Railway Conductors in New England. It is occasioned by the repeal of the anti-strik- e clause at the recent annual con-vention and the friendly disposition dis-played toward the railway federation scheme. Not infrequently the railway conductor is a fawning sycophant a bully who lords it over the traveling public, but Nvho cringes before the most insignificant whipper Bnapper of the man-ager. He flatters himself that he is "above" the ordinary railway employe, and to call him a working man is to in-sult his royal highness of the nickel plated punch. It is probable that of such is this new organization. Never mind, boys, the time is coming when these bloated gentlemen will see themselves as others see them the most abject of wago slaves, who are not trusted even by the bosses, upon whom they fawn. There are many honorable men among the conductors, however, and they are those who voted with the majority at tho recent convention, or who will back up their delegates in that action, An Hartford, Conn. Comprehensive Partnership. The recent visit of the Society of Me-chanical Engineers to Ivorydale, to in-spect a large soap factory there, has drawn attention to the profit sharing system on which the factory is conduct-ed. At the end of each six months the net receipts above the cost of operating the works are determined. From thorn is first taken a dividend of 6 per cent, on the capital invested; then a salary to each member of the firm who has given his time to the management of the busi-ness, then a certain percentage of profit on the capital invested. The remainder i3 divided among all in the employ of the firm in proportion to their wages. At the last dividend day the amount dis-tributed was 15 per cent, on the. wages paid. To impress on the employes as much as possible the importance of the saving they are making, dividend day is made a gieat holiday, with games, pic-nics, etc-N- ew York Commercial Ad-vertiser.
