that we should not only be nearly seif self sus ta ining but that all the necessaries of life be cheap and e easily access accessible that is in profusion there are three classes of industry indispensable to this 1 end the farmer the miner and the manu mauu fac all these avocations are mutually dependent their harmonious development ensures the success and weal of all the farmer produces food the miner raw products the tho tools machinery and the appendages pen dakes dages of civilized life A lack jack of farmers renders food scarce and dear A lack of raw products precludes

all the social body but cut butlers lers these unequal conditions exist among us today to day nationally and extensively locally how shall we remedy his prostration is ls is 19 the anxious inquiry of the time even among us in utah thousands of young men and young women and persons are seeking employment f it is imperative on us to supply it our social condition demands the the earnest endeavors of

many staples aro arc prosperous eo so far as developed gold and silver are being produce produced a in plenty but these are only valuable to fco far as they tend to develop and equalize other industries their too great production without the others ultimately tends rather to deteriorate or destroy mexico nna ana spain are most fearful examples to this point our manufactures ah ab theres the rub there has been no determined systematic matic effort wisely ap plied for their general introduction or only in a solitary instance or two they are far from prosperous we are today to day in the condition of a man constantly bleeding at an artery not beeking seeking to staunch the blood and having little food to produce more of the life fluid how long jong shall these monstrous and anomalous conditions continue how long shall we vye be blinded to our folly foll millions of dollars are being drained from us for imports of all kinds when our true interests require only to be imported those things we have not the means or raw products to produce at home the manufactures designated in our heading headings next to food and clothing are among the most important and most necessary ili in every department of life and the materials are perhaps as abundant and accessible and good as elsewhere we all want glass for windows and nd many other indispensable uses we have an au abunda abundance bice fice of the purest silica occurring in veins called granular quartz this is almost glass to begin with we have also fine sands these sands and quart zitea are about ninety per cent pure pare the other components being mostly lime and and therefore not detri detrimental menta our smelters shelters sm elters produce unlimited supplies of oxides of lead we vve have also abundance of theal the al kalies kalles iad potashes pot ashes can be obtained as elsewhere from vegetable combustion the other wants for glass making are few thus we ha ba the necessary raw products for this manufacture we have every facility to rival pittsburg at our dors doors our imports of glass foot root up some annually and we are in a centre to tap the trade of this mountain region and even to encroach on the east and west in rn the matter of labor all know its cheapness and abundance behave we have no long transportation to pay that cost costa lune alone being a handsome business profit here is a chance to tc realize for moderate capital an immense fortune considering our favorable position and resources our own and the wants of all the neighboring territories here is an
