We are glad to learu by telegraph that the directors of the San Francisco & Salt Lake railroad feel encouraged.

In Greenwich, England, where the most accurate accur-ate observations are made and kept, the variation var-iation is but a fraction of a degree in one hundred years, and that is probably due to instrumental error. The protracted hot 6pell from which we have been suffering is therefore an effort of nature to make up for the protracted cool spell we had in the early summer, and the chances are that the coming com-ing winter will be a mild one. Still, we 6hould have preferred a more equal distribution distribu-tion of temperature over the whole year. At the same time, if the theory of the meteorologists meteor-ologists be true, what becomes of the other theory that the earth is getting gradually colder? In the course of time, in Utah, under the benign influence of protection, and when the cessation of disturbing local influences in-fluences attract -capital hither, we shall build up Buch industries as, in their diversity, are not known anywhere on the continent. We have line and clear silicious glass with which, to manufacture gla?j; kukoliu to make white porcelain; white 6tatuary marble, magnesia and limestone to produce the best Portland cement; white load and all the different ochre for paints; whole mountains moun-tains of iron, coal and coke with which to keep innumerablq factories busy. Instead of exporting hides, we shall run tanneries and shoe shops; increase from native yield our woolen mills; manufacture tin cans of home tin and fill theiu with the produce of home orchards. Only keep out free trade. |
