What she now needs is a s'.ructure worthy of her position. The citizens have been doing their share to bring Provo to the front,butthe railroads rail-roads haye not even shown a disposition, disposi-tion, to say nothing of effort, to help in the good work. In consequence of this, considerable of this work on the part of tLe community has "been checkmated, for the visitor to our city, and the toui ist passing through en route to the East or to the West, have formed bad impressions of Provo, on account of the unsightly structures dubbed depots which first meet the eye on entering the city. We see no good reason why the U. P. and the R. G. W. cannot join hands and give Provo a Union depot. This would be much better than each of the roads puting their means in separate separ-ate structures. Of course we realize that there is not sufficent ground wherethe depots are at present situated situat-ed to do this, but we persume there would be no difficulty in getting the West Square, ai this ground was proffered prof-fered some time back to the Midland Railway Go. The Chamber of Commerce committee commit-tee on railroad is doing silent, yet potent work in this depot question and we have no doubt but that their report at Friday night,s meeting of the Chamber will be most interesting. |
