} HOW IT Is BEING ADVERTISED.
A. B. Johnson impaired to THE HERALD
their scheme of advertising Ogden through
/ the carnival:
''Written invitations signed and with
the seal of the king have been issued to
every municipal officer, including mayor,
and court officials throughout the entire
west. from Chicago to New Orleans and
) San Diego to Tacoma. Every military or
5 ganization throughout this country has
received a special order directing the
/ troops to assemble at Ogden, and
the mayors have read their orders
4 before their councils and the governors to
$ their stats. The presiding officers of every
e civic order in every town have been pre-
r sented with these orders of Rex ii to re-
/ port here during carnival week and most
: of these orders have been read in open
meetings of these bodies ard their secre-
v taries ordered to indict reply. One of the
2 characteristic features of these letters was
i neatly worded paragraph thrown in, as
if by chance, setting forth the marvellous
resources of Utah and the rapid develop
ment of the same, together with the happy
u prediction of what may reasonably be ex-
~ pected for the future. Both Utah and
u ogden has received wonderful amount OF
u what might be termed as free advertising
through the agency of the Rex carnival ~
