sidewalks are among the improvements

''They may hold Salt Lake, but they
can't stop it'' was the terse way that Mr.
Van Buskirk, of the Van Buskirk Invest
ment company, put the situation in a nut
shell. Though some men come here and
go away dissatisfied with the situation,
they belong to the speculative class who
ask what is this piece of acreage worth and
what will it bring tomorrow. The other
class who ask anxiously into the building
enterprises with a view to permanent in
vestment are the men we want. While at
present we cannot show them much but
foundations that are being dug, when the
bricks aud mortar L1gin to raise above the
ground and tower into the air it will leave
much better impression. Nothing would
suit me better than to hold the market as it
is for few months so that we can do bust
ness on what will then be in sight"
