spirit seems to be stronger as shown by the offer of the manufacturers association at los angeles to rent floor with the utah exhibit for a month to boost log angeles governor spry who spoke on loyalty to utah said that there was only one thing lacking a the banquet and that was the absence of the sv and wives of the members he urged presence at future banquets because of advertising value because said the governor they buy your goods at ter all alicy arc the real patrons of home products not long ago he said there was talk of abandoning tho manufacturers rs association because of the lack of interest in utah products and industries there seemed to be y a lack of work on behalf of utah 1 but a spirit has been injected into the work and alie result 19 apparent here tonight is no

been a butali we have every reason to bo proud of our state in looking over tins banquet tonight I 1 might say that utah can be sustaining it the people will only go about it in the ight wy governor spry praised washington county of which he said little 13 known in tins state the climate is better than that of los angeles the soil produces two crops of grain and six or seven crops of alfalfa a year and the pastures are always green it is the most productive section of the entire state said governor spry and I 1 am indeed surprised that railroads have not ago entered that country to haul forth its valuable freight washington coun tj can give a more elaborate in your new building than all of the counties in the state combined then there is iron county with a mountain of coal on one side and i mountain of iron on the other side of the valley there is enough iron to supply all of the for our buildings all of the steel for rails and enough more to supply the west coast and the northwest with all the otcel required in building no state in the union un boast of the natural resources of which utah can boast and no avo states in the w hole union can boast of the variety that we have here this banquet is not a new thing in utah that is not to the farmer for he has such things as tace on his table three times a day and every day in the year he produces them when I 1 was on the farm we had cows that produced pure milk we had cream on it in those days alie farmers of the state are working for utah and I 1 say to you manufacture erff that if bour factories dont pay if ou are not able to compete with your bi others in the same line take it from mo and go back to the farm in the first class hotels of the cast the menu advertise utah asparagus if utah were properly advertised we would go forward by leaps and bounds the line of demarcation between the people of this state lias as distinct as the imps between the states and one class is aligned upon the one side while another 13 arrayed upon the opposite bide what wo need is organizations that will bring men together regardless of creed and have them boost utah cease this quarreling and make utah what by rights it aught to bo the leading state in all he union herald republican |
