Of the republicans, nothing but To the Chairman of tlie Davis county PEOPLES' FORUM The history of salt manufacture from the wateis of Gnat Salt Lake begins with the arrival of the Mormons in Utah in 1847. The only salt harvested at first was tliat obtained from the evaporation, during summer, of the water contained in little lagoons or natural basins along the shore ol the lake. Aliout the year i860 dams were built to hold large quantities of water in low places for evaporation. These ponds were flooded in the spring and the salt deposited during the summer by solar evaporation was gathered into piles along the banka and carried over from one year to another. About this time the clilorinatiou process for the reduction of siWtr oir was discovered, and the demand for milling salt increased very rapidly. The output for all purpose reached a toial of 50.000 tons in 1890, whereas nut ovei 500 to I coo pounds were gathered in 1848. At present Utah ranks sixth among the states as a salt producer, ao lar as quantity is concerned and fifth if the value of the product is considered. The production has increased from 96,760 barrels in 188010417,501 barrels in 1903. The process of evanoratiug and milling salt carried on at the best equipped California plants cloi1y resemble those in Utah, but a few important difference of practice have arisen because of the difference in the strength of the brine. In evaporating the weaker brine of San Francisco bay, it is necessary to provide for the precipitation ni the iron oxide, lime carbonide, aud gypsum. Interesting Archeological Find.

Davla I CONGRESS: FO W. Powera of Salt Lake City A RAILROAD EXTENSION. We are prepared to promise that Davis county is to have better Inter-rba- n facilities ; for the Salt Lake and Ogdcfa road is to be what its Jams implies. Surveyors are now in tlie flHld and it is promised that tin town of Kaysvillo, Layton, aud iltopcr are to be in immediate connection with Salt Lake ; that is, this winter! As soon as the surrey is completed, construction is to begin immediately ; in fact the work is already begun, for the bridge over Haights creek is now ready for the graders and tracklayers. We have information that we can vourh for; to the effect that as soon as spring opens next year, wofk 011 the exten-lo- n to Ogden will Iks vigorom-lpushed, and that Ogden will be in a position to contribute to our resort, the Lagoon; furthermore, thnt tho line will be equipped with the electric ears, etc., and hourly service given. This will indeed be gratifying news to the citizens of our commonwealth, not only aa another contribution to the public purse, but aa a decided convenience; a relief from the noiae, dust, and cinders now attendant to the present facilities. W'e no or officials hope will city county throw a straw in tlie way of Mr. Bamberger in hia laudable efforts to build up the county. If anyone has a right to expect franchises, rights of way or similar courtesies, eertaiuly Mr. Bamberger is culiUed to them. Ho haa shown his faith by hia works, and In every way demonstrated a williuguesa to spend hia money to the upbuilding of our county. We understand that hq has ao far carried the financial burden alone aud that the extension now promised ia without outside help. When the road ! completed to Ogdeu, then he will be ready to accept outside help to place it on an electrical equipment bais, including modern cars and all that constitutes a well appointed system. Utah'e Salt Induatry. bulletin from the U. S. geological survey describes a visit made by Mr. Kdwin C. Eckel, during the field action of 1903, and hia study of the salt industry of Utah. The bulletin says: Great Salt Lake ia but the remnant of an Immense greater body of water, catted take Bonneville, which was reduced by evaporation to its present size, while at the same time it became a highly concentrated solution The water of Great Salt lake has varied considerably in its degree of concentration even during the comparatively short period that has elap-et- l since the settlement of Utah. If the records can be relied upon, it was at its point of maximum concentration in 1S20. From that date, until sometime in the seventies the lake gradually became fresher, reaching its least recorded concentration in 1S73. A reverse process then set in, and the lake haa now almost reached the concentration point of 1820. LAGOON IMPROVEMENTS.

Although I have not read the funeral notices of any dead supervisors, yet the dangerous wires are still there and this is sufficient grounds for supposing that the Hoad supervisors are either actually dead, or dead to their duties; and in cither case, I think that you as the chW guardian of the interests of the county should immediately take the necessary steps to have the dangerous obstructions removed.
