4 BUILDING BOOM
Remarkable Activity in the
Waterloo Additions.
NUMEROUS FINE RESIDENCES
Sidewalks Being Laid, Streets Graded, Shade
Trees Planted and Scores of Elegant Resi-
dences in Course of Construction.

1t is very generally conceded that Salt
Lake has entered upon a new season of I'M
wonted prosperity. Evidences of it are
seen on al Sides not the least of which is
the activity in the building Of new bust
ness blocks and new and elegant resi-
dences. The list Of new buildings for
which permits were taken out which THE
HERALD published few days ago, does not
by any means givea full idea of the amount
of building operations which Is going on in
our midst. Permits are taken out
only by parties who erect structures
within the city limits, but there
is vast amount Of building operations 60
ing on io the subdivisions just outside the
corporate limits which are never reported
TO the city building inspector. A HERALD
reporter having occasion TO pay visit to
the south eastern part Of the city yester-
day, was peculiarly struck with the
changes which have taken place there
within the past few weeks, particularly in
the Waterloo additions. The old race
track now known as East Waterloo pre-
sents quite scene of activity. Men are
busily engaged in grading streets and lay
ing sidewalks and regular army of build
ers are at work on fine new
residences many of them very large, CON-
modious and handsome structures. The
East boulevard is graded and is one of the
incest drives anywhere around the city.
The shade trees are looking very fine and
others are being planted.
The reporter was amazed at the change
which the whole neighborhood had under
gone within only very short time. 1t is
only five weeks since East Waterloo was
opened up and put. on the market, and from
present appearances there will be fifty or
sixty fine new residences completed before
| fall.
OF all the surrounding neighborhood
| East Waterloo seems to be the most
favored spot. Some Of the best and most
substantial citizens have purchased lots
and are building elegant homes there, ali
of which goes TO indicate that this is going
| TO be the favorite residence portion of the
future. General j. S. Witcher bought
fourteen lots in that addition last Friday
with the intention of building there and
making it his future home. e. L. Ray
bould has very nice home just lately
built. Secretary Sears of the cham
Der of commerce also acquired
fifty six lots in close proxim-
unity, and is about to build.
The streets being made are all fine and
wide. The sidewalks are being laid with
cement and are five or six feet wide. The
neighborhood is abundantly supplied with
ar .esian water, and at this season of the
year, when all nature is smiling, East
Waterloo looks very tempting for those
4, who wish an elegant site for home. The
car facilities are good, the electric cars
! going and coming every twenty minutes.
There is good deal of building going OF
in the other additions, but Waterloo seem;
to lead them all and in very short time
will be the mos fashionable residence por-
/ tion of the city

GRAND JURY REPORT.
A Rather Light s-Condition Of the
Penitentary and Jail

Following is the grand iury's report
Hon. Charles S. Zane. Judge District Court
of the Third Judicial District:
Having completed our labors, your grand
jury submit the following report:
Since being empsnelled on April 11th,
1895, we have diligently investigated all
cases brought before US, having considered
sixty three, finding true bills under the
United States Statutes in four, and under
the Territorial laws in forty-slx, and hav e
ignored four brought under the United
States and nine under the Territorial laws
examined one hundred and eighty-seven
witnesses.
We examined the public institutions in
the district, and in regard thereto, have
the following suggestions to make:
That the bathing and closet accommoda-
lions at the penitentiary be enlarged, aud
the sewer system improved and enlarged
to correspond; this should be done before
the summers heat.
The city jail of Salt Lake is not suitable
for the confinement Of the petty offenders
usually ipcarcerated therein, lacking all
modern conveniences ard being too small
we cannot too strongly urge that it be re-
placed by nav one at as early a date as
possible.
Respectfully submitted this 21st day OF
May, 1892.

lows:
SALT LAKE CITY, May 81, 1892
'fMr. W. R. Kelly, South Schenectady, Ny.
"DEAR SIR-Your favor of the 10th inst.
to our enterprising citizen, Mr. w. E. Hub
bard, has been handed to me for reply. We
have sent you by this mail some pamphlets
which will answer most of your questions
and any point which is not fully covered
by the printed matter and this communica-
ton, if you will drop us line we will be
pleased to give you more definite informa-
ton. Many eastern people are turning
their attention to Salt Lake city aud the
reason many others do not do so is because
they, in all probability, do not dream of the
many advantages Of this much favored
locality. Here nature has been most lavish
with her gifts. The combination is such
that those who are dissatisfied here would
be hard, indeed, to please anywhere.
Our mountains are rich in precious
metals, as well as coal and iron, and
all in such close proximity to each
greatest advantage. Our extensive ranges
furnish fine nutritious grass for the graz
ing of cattle and sheep. so that our local
markets constantly supply the very finest
class of meats, still leaving q large surplus
for export to the trade centers CT the east
and west. From our mountain streams we
obtain the finest trout and at prices which
are not excessive even to being within the
reach of the mechanic and laborer, while
our orchards and vineyards produce fine
fruit IN as great variety as can be found in
this latitude anywhere In the extreme
southern portion of Utah some tropical and
semi-tropical fruits are successfully grown.
We are in the very midst of raw material
for the manufacture of almost everything
required for the necessaries and many of
the comforts of life. Capital is needed
for more fuller development
of our industries. Many millions
could be prohtaly employed in
this direction and it is gradually coming
The next few years this city must make
some rapid strides in material develop
ment. One reason for capitalists holding
back previously has been very general
but erroneous impression that society was
not upon proper basis here that our chill
dren and schools were not as good as thew
are in the east that our citizens lacked the
culture and refinement possessed else
where. Another reason has been that cap
lUausbs III the lar east nave thought that
nothing was good security for their invest
ments which lay west of the Missouri
river, aud Salt Lake was associated in
their minds with Australia, Japan or
China, but this impression has been re-
moved to q great extent and will soon be
obliterated entirely, bringing in q new era
for Utah, and it is safe prediction that it
will not be many years before invest
ments IN state possessing
all the advantages enjoyed by
Utah will be at q premium over less
favored localities whichmay occupy a more
caste rly position on themap. Our climate

day asking for the dissolution of the in

cept that EN- braced in the side lines of the

The court was inclined to the latter view
of the case and an order will be entered in

Lincoln's Death.

Twenty-six years ago yesterday,
the writer stood on one of the hills
about Chattanooga, Tennessee. All
around were camps, cannon and
soldiers. The camps were gay with
flags, the cannon were firing salutes,
the soldiers were shouting for Joy.
Lee had surrendered, the end of the
war had come, and home was in
sight. The next morning the flags
were at half-mast, the cannon were
firing minute-guns, the soldiers were
silent and sad. It was an abrupt
transition from widespread Joy to
universal mourning. Our beloved
war President, "Old Abe," had been
murdered the evening before by a
fanatical assassin. Then it seemed
as if a new breach had been made
between North and South that never
would be healed. Today the whole
country is united and loyal, and
it's people, visiting from one section
to another, travelling by the Bur-
lingtOn lines of railroad, are one
family again. For rates, routes and

TIE SINGLE TAX.

Levied Upon Valuable Laad In Cities It

Consumption.
There IS perhaps no body Of voters in
the United States more thoroughly or
gained or so active, earnest and persis-
tent IN educational propaganda as are
the disciples of Henry George, known
as single takers Indeed, so dogmatic
are they in their authoritative assump-
ton of infallibilty for their arguments,
that it would seem to be hopeless task
to attempt to combat their arguments
or dispute the conclusions they have ar
rived at
have noticed in one or two single
tax journals, disposition to deplore
the fact that the st. Louis conference
missed the golden opportunity afforded
it, of indorsing and advocating per-
feet system of economies and an ideal
system of taxation, l. e., ~ single tax.
Men will differ however, and /, for my
part, think that the only taxes that
could never be shifted, would be those
levied upon unused and unoccupied land
and upon incomes estates, inheritances
and requests.
Our single tax friends formulate GER
tain basic or fundamental propositions,
which, they assert, are incontrovertible,
and yet 1, in my denseness of ignorance,
can neither understand nor subscribe to
them. For instance, they assert that a
single tax upon land values could not be
shifted claim that, with one or two
exceptions, the single tax would be the
easiest tax of any to shift. Single tax
ers assert that under the operation Of

WE MUST BE A UNIT.

President Folks Paper Gives Alliance
Members Good Advice.
At the last meeting of the National
Farmers Alliance and Industrial union,
resolutions were passed calling upon
all the organizations of farmers, labor
ers and producers in the United States
to send delegates to St. Louis, February
%, 1892, for the purpose of formulatin
platform upon which all could con-
sistently stand and thus bring all our
combined strength into harmonious CO
operation. The great conference has
been held, held at our suggestion; at
our invitation. Harmony prevailed, a
platform was adopted embodying more
of our demands than of the demands OF
any other order there represented.
Some little compromises were expected,
but our order virtually shaped the plat
form. And all the organizations there
represented, without dissenting voice,
voted for it. By voting for it they
pledged the honor of their organization
as well as their individual honor to it's
support. Now, brethren, to fail to
stand for, speak for, contend earnestly
for, and by all means vote for the car
rying the principles Of the St. Louis
platform into the laws of the land
would be reproach and disgrace
upon us. We called the conference, we
framed the platform; to desert it, or
even to lag now in supporting it would
cause our confederates and friends to
lose confidence in us and respect for Us.
If we do our duty we wiz vote ior no
man or party which in any degree
shows disposition to check our prog
ress in this direction. We declare: ''In
things essential, unity and it is evil
dent that unity upon this platform
is essential to the success of our
cause. If there be any little chickering's
or strife, or personal preferences,
or any political party affiliations, or any
other thing in the way, let it not once
be named among us; let us as one man,
with one mind, bury the whole past,
and as we value liberty for ourselves
and wish to leave it to our offspring,
let us accept the st. Louis platform,
plant ourselves squarely upon it and
show to the world that this is not a
matter of mere child's play with us, but
a principle from which nothing can
drive us. In so far as we deviate from
this course, either to the right hand or
to the left, we weaken our cause and
strengthen the cause of the opposition.
We must stand together, work together
if we would succeed, or even hope to
see our demands respected. If we will
do this we will show our power and
gain the respect of our enemies and
those who continually prophesy evil Of
us.-Raleigh IN. c. Progressive
Farmer.
