M iliii ms ofdullars are backing these wealthy eapit;ili.-t,and that ourgas prospeets will lie thoroughly tested before I they get through with them, is a certainty. 1 Skill and enterprise arc now at the helm and the result of their con 1 hi ned labor will be awaited with great interest by every citizen of this city. Of course the chief object, if quantities of gas ar struck, will he to put in large conduits to conduct the gas to this city for lighting and heating purposes. Then large ! manufactories well inevitably fall in line and be established on the gas iields, on the western outskirts of town. The Salt Bake Improvement and Natural (las Co. are the pushers. They, this week, perfected arrangements arrange-ments with C B. (iraeld, J r., for the development of over GOO acres and with Elias Jensen for -100 acres of the. best laud on the gas belt west of town. The leases will be void unless work is commenced within three and four months from date of contract. This means that before June l()th, great natural gas boring machines will be in active operation at our doors. And who can foretell fore-tell the result? |
