ears has been the best investment that the people of Salt Lake have ever for themselves and for the state at nt local issue and it ha hay brought home to us the realization of great potential

we now enjoy than has our na national advertising It has brought hundreds hundreds hund- hund reds of dollars to the people of the state in dividends to those who have ha subscribed and those Who Nho ho have not but even if it had hadnot hadnot hadnot not brought a single tourist to our state it still would have paid many fold told b by virtue of ot the fact tact that It has bas furnished a common platform upon which every citizen can stand For twenty years ears people of ever every breed and var varying ing faiths in this state have bae worked work work- rk- rk ed that we ma may become a united people and in m my mind it Is the best investment the people of ot Utah have ever made in this thi state for any purpose In the tho vernacular Mr Armstrong said a mouthful and according to big business Interests touring agencies railroads manufacturers farmers real estate dealers livestock men and genial hostelry throughout through through- out the state Utah Is In the public public public pub pub- lic eye as never before and from all parts of ot the nation interested Interested in investigators investigators in- in come to look us over apparently astonished at the tho things they thai have read and heard and the things they see It Is gratifying to note that many remain to make their homes homE's and fortunes here or orto orto orto to leave their money here for in in- in Ye vestment Through his bank Mr Armstrong Armstrong Arm Arm- strong has hns sent out many thousands thousands ands of ot bulletins on the welfare of or I Utah Ho He thinks that livestock I agriculture mining
