The Post is very much interested and certainly in accord with the sentiment expressed in an advertisement which appeared in a Salt Lake daily paper over the signature of Leyson-Pearsa- ll company. In placing our stamp of approval on that type of publicity we desire to extend our congratulations to the author and the firm publishing it, and for the benefit of those who have not read it we quote as follows : Outside of the migration of 1847, all our citizens came to Utah in search, primarily, of money. That we have grown in population and individual wealth proves that Utah has been lavish in giving Jbf her treasures to those who have been worthy, meaning those wh owould work and save and believe in her greatness And yet in spite of natures generosity, we harbor all through our state disloyal citizens who grouch the hours away because, probably through their own fault, they have not prospered. We are about to spend $75,000.00 to tell our neighbors east and west, north and south, about the wares we have on Utahs shelves for sale to seekers of either pleasure or profit. Before Many Notables in spending this money, however, lets be honest merchants and believe in our state, even though we distrust our neighbors.
