Show BOOSTERS BACK II HAPPY 100 AFTEPUOURNEY Business Men Pronounce Trade Excursion to Cities of Northern Utah and Idaho a Success. THOUSANDS WELCOME TRAVELERS' RETURN Gay Parade From Brigham Young Monument to Commercial Com-mercial Club Is Feature of Homecoming. "With- the big steam siren on the ba,'-sge ba,'-sge car playing "Home, Sweet ;Home, ' the special train that has carried car-ried the Commercial club boosters on an ISOO-niile trip over northern Utah and southern Idaho during the past week, pulled into Salt Lake yesterday afternoon after-noon at 5:25 o 'clock. The arrival brought to a conclusion one of the most successful trade excursions ever conducted con-ducted out of Salt Lake City. Thousands of cheering Salt Lakers lined Main street from the Brigham Youug monument and South Temple street and welcomed home the solid .ndred Salt Lake boosters. With military mili-tary precision the beribboned marchers tame down the street, following Held's band, whieh played march selections aloi the" route. The returning boosters were welcomed wel-comed at the depot by a fleet of automobiles auto-mobiles officered by members of the Sail Lake CommeTcial elub. They were brought by the automobiles to the Brigham Brig-ham Young monument and thence the march began to the Commercial club. Gravely marching at the head of the column was the Idaho goat, captured in the wilds of the Gem state and brought back to grace the-triumph. Behind the last marchers were many, many automobiles, auto-mobiles, with vigorously honking horns. Concert Is Free. The parade was preceded by a platoon of police under Captain Enril Johnson. At Exchange place the marchers executed exe-cuted a beautiful turn and continued to the Commercial club. There the band and the police halted, and the boosters countermarched between lines of saluting salut-ing policemen. Without extra charge the spectators who bad witnessed, the big parade, were permitted to listen to the boosters' song's. The same ballads that made such a wonderful hit in Parma, Weiser and Blackf oot were sung in the same soulful fashion and by the same talented vocalists that had previously appeared in the Montpelicr production. Billy, the knocker's goat, now belongs be-longs to bait Lake City. After the parade yesterday he was taken to Liberty Lib-erty park, where he will become, a part of the zoological garden. The goat has won the affections of all of the boosters boost-ers and seemed tole giving every evidence evi-dence of sadness when the boosters parted at the club yesterday afternoon. Next rear, however, he will be taken with tne excursionists as the mascot of the party. The arrival of the special train was heralded by the blowing: of many whistles on all Oregon Short Line engines in the yards and the big siren at the shops of the railroad. Yesterday afternoon more than threescore three-score members of the party said that no tiip ever made by the organization had been so successful. During the tour which began last Sunday tt midnight mid-night fifty cities of Utah, Idaho and Oregon Ore-gon were visited by the boosters and to them was extended the hand of good fellowship fel-lowship and the assurance of the Salt Lakers of support in any movement that made for a closer business relationship between the lntermountaln states. Brief, but Forcible. One of the shortest speeches made by any of the boosters during the week, and at the same time one of the most important im-portant as far as an expression of the Journey is concerned, was that of Frank F!si:er at Soda Springs, Idaho, yesterday afternoon on the last lap of the trip. Mr. Fisher said: We are building a great city at Salt Lake and we want to see all nf your Idaho towns grow as well. We look forward to the day when Boise and Pocatello will both be Salt Lakes and we will then be the Chi-cao Chi-cao of the west. We must build somewhere in the west a city so Important Im-portant that when a national administration admin-istration looks out from the capitol at Washington over the western prairies and fields, there will be at least one city so great that it will command their every respect, so that legislation for the development and protection of the west cannot be withheld. Final Hours Busy. Yesterday's trip of the boosters was started at Paris, Idaho, and included besides be-sides the Bear Lake vallev towns stops at Montpeiier. Soda Springs. Bancroft, McCammon and Downey. The Last portion por-tion of the trip, from Downey to Salt -Lake, was given to a business meeting of the boosters, held in one of the dining tare. To some extent tho meeting resembled re-sembled a love feast, aHirugn sonTe discussion dis-cussion was had on the prospects for the next tour of the Commercial club boosters. Nothing definite was decided upon, but It is expected that the movement move-ment for an excursion will receive an earlier start next year than it did this (Continued on Page Ten.) ii ILCQI IS i CHEN BOOSTERS I .

A number of resolutions expressive of the appreciation of the boosters for the treatment accorded them by the railroad officials, the newspapers and the telephone tele-phone company, and commending the efforts ef-forts of the executive committee of the excursion, the band and the quartette to make the trip a success, were passed. Another resolution embodied the formal for-mal receipt by the Commercial club of a series of interviews from the members mem-bers of the party as being expressive of the success of the tour. Each member of the boosters was asked to briefly but frankly write his opinion of the value of The excursion. With one accord the trip was pronounced a big success. This resolution read as follows: Whereas, the members of the booster excursion party have seen fit to express their individual opinions, and. Whereas, these individual opinions have been filed with the secretary of the Commercial club as representing . the feelings of all parties subscribing thereunto : Resolved.

Our interests are larger and I believe that the results of such excursions as tbis bring a better understanding between the people we serve. JOHN HELD, Held ?s band It is impossible im-possible to estimate the good this trip has done. It has cemented friendship that began last year and left indelibly stamped on the minds of the people we have visited that Salt Lake is the live town of the west, and that it has a club that can work for six days from 6 a. m. until midnight and put in the remainder of the time thinking of new stunts. Jensen Is Honored. At the conclu&ion of the speerhmaldng at the business meeting President W. F. Jensen of the Commercial club was called Into the sleeping car in which Held's band has been quartered during the trip and presented with an engraved testimonial testi-monial of the appreciation of the members mem-bers of the musical organization.
