THE GOVERNOR SPEAKS.
Utah's Manufacturing Re sources Must Be
Developed.

Utah's Manufacturing Re sources Must Be
Developed.
Governor Thomas was presented, and
he spoke eulogistic of the efforts which
the first settlers had made to establish
factories in this territory. The leaders of
the people taught them that their success
depended on home manufactures. This
wise policy has been taught from the
earliest history of the territory down to
the present time, and it is part of the ed
ucation of the people. By looking over
the statutes of the territory numerous
laws will be found giving bounties to fac
tories. The Union ironworks were eX-
empted from taxation.
The speaker referred to the organization
of board of trade, which included such
names as Moses Thatcher and John Tay
lor. The policy of home manufactures
has been in line with the purpose of the
people of Utah territory since 1S47.
Although the city is surrounded by a
soil that produces abundantly, yet
we do not enjoy all the benefits that ma
ture's God intended that we should pos
sess. Although Utah possesses a territory
as large as an empire, yet we cannot ex-
pect to ever cultivate more than "a per
cent. of the area. We must start manu-
featuring. We have iron enough to make
Utah the greatest manufacturing state in
the country Along with manufactures
other enterprises will follow in their
train. Every public spirited citizen
should lend his influence to make Salt
Lake city great manufacturing center >,
and we will march forward to prosperity
and power.

The old adage that everything comes to

The meeting called last evening to en-
dorse the copper plant called out the larg-
est and most enthusiastic assemblage of
public spirited citizens that ever congre-
gated in this city to consider business
proposition.
The meeting was significant in more
ways than one. 1t was the first meeting
participated in by citizens OF all classes,
tremendously united in one common
purpose. Heretofore there has been a
disposition to ''smash heads,' but no
such combat1ve spirit was even suggested.
1t was the first meeting ever called for the
purpose of raising local aid to the extent
of 500, 900 and 100 acres of land for the
purpose of establishing an important
manufacturing enterprise in this city.
The theatre was packed with bankers,
merchants, capitalists, shop people,
lawyers, doctors and laborers.
The women lent their presence to grace
the occasion and were among the most
enthusiastic supporters of the enterprise.
The boxes and procenium We're decor

He Endorses Railroads, Boulevards and
Copper Refineries.
Colonel Lett explained that he had been
admonished to make short speech. He
never knew of community endowed in
such way that it was not necessary for
its people to struggle. A panorama of
loveliness greets every stranger who
comes to this territory. There, however,
seems to be a gloom, a lethargy that hangs
over the people, buJ do not find it more
oppressive than it is In older states that l
have visited.
He urged the building of the Coalville
road instanter, SO that the poor people of
this city could have coal for $3.50 per
ton. He would also drive railroad
through the southern part of the terri
tory. The smelter would enable the
miners to have their ore smelted at
price that would leave them profit. The
men who are on the streets and who do
not work he would have turned over to
Chief Paul to build the boulevard.
He spoke of outstanding the water that
flows down from these mountains that
the farmer could raise more grain. He
cited that it would cost the people of this
city but 81 apiece to secure this copper
plant.

BIG KENNEL SHOW.
A Remarkable Exhibition Which Is
Now Open in Chicago.
Three Famous st. Bernard Beauties III,
Guided in the Exhibit-val-
liable Dogs.

CHICAGO, Feb. z. = Special. = The
most remarkable kennel club exhibit
ever given in the west is that which
opened today in battery d and will con-
tinue until the end of the week. Every
class has a magnificent set of entries and
the prizes are the largest ever given in the
west. Among these is the medal offered
by Colonel Jacob Rupert of New York
for the best kennel of st. Barnards. It is
safe to presume that the colonel's exhibit
will include his three famous St. Barnard
beauties, Kingstonian Count, Kingston
ian Beauty and Kingstonian Countess.
Kingstonian Count was bought in Eng
land for $1,000, and although only
eighteen months old stands thirty
four inches at the shoulder. The
Count has the beautiful mark
ings of his race-the white col
lar, breast. half hind legs, and tipped
tail. He has massive head, which meas
ures twenty inches around the skull
and eighteen inches around the muzzle.
He has been shown at a number OF bench
shows in England, and in every instance
has carried of first honors.
Kingstonian Beauty is considered one
of the most perfect formed specimens Of
her breed in existence. She has won first
prize at the kennel club show in London,
and also blue ribbons at the Gloucester
and Darlington shows. She cost 90, 600.
Kingstonian Countess, whose markings
are the same as Kingstonian Count and
Kingstonian Beauty, is the smallest of
the three. The following are the names
of the officers: W. E. Hagens, president;
Joseph A. Locke, vice-president: G. H.
Goodrich, secretary and treasurer; John
W. Munson, managing director.

AN EDITORS VIEWS.
Abram III. Cannon Speaks on the I'm
portance of Manufactures.


Abram H. Cannon, editor of the Deseret
Ne1S, was the next speaker. He said:
The territory has all the natural re-
sources of any country in the world. The
mountains are filed with metals. There
is no people on the face of the earth more
skilled in all the arts. No people can
grow wealthy as long as they import
more than they export. The prosperity
of the English isles comes from their fac
tories; the sails OF her ships Tighten up ali
the seas. I think we have it in our power
to make labor honorable and can in no
other way better express it than to give
500, 900 to this copper smelter. 1t will
not be long until we will have here iron
smelters. The truest charity is that
which furnishes employment to men and
gives them the opportunity to earn for
themselves. This factory means
a. better cultivation of cur soil.
Our soil is az rich as any in the world,
but we give the soil only superficial
tickling of the surface. With this shallow
cultivation the average of crops is larger
here than any place in this country.
When we secure the smelter we will not
find our farmers hawking -four abont the
streets for 81. 80 per hundred.
Napoleon said that impossible was
only q word found in the dictionary of
fools. [Applause.] There is nothing
impossible for us, and by securing such
enterprises as this we shall become ex-
porters instead of importer

The Meeting Adiourns.

The meeting adjourned little disap-
pointed at the amount of subscriptions
raised, but greatly encouraged over the
enthusiastic attendance and determined to
raise the necessary money to secure the
smelter.
The object of the meeting was not to
complete the copper bonus subscriptions,
but to stir up public interest in the vari-
Gus matters pertaining to the welfare of
the city, and this object was fully accom-
plished. The committees who are solicit
ing subscriptions to the fund were conf
dent yesterday that the bonus would be
raised, and the effect of last nights meet
ing will greatly facilitate their labor.
The committees refused to make public
the exact amount subscribed, but it is
known that there is one SO, 900 and sew
eral s., 600 subscriptions down, besides
many others in the thousands.

THE EARTHQUAKE AT zANrE.
Every Building in the City Was More or
Less Injured.

ATHENS. Feb, THE king and queen
of Greece have arrived at Zante. When
the royal couple landed there was some
cheering, followed by almost complete
quiet. After an exchange Of greetings
between the king and civil and military
authorities, the king and queen drove
through the ruined streets to ascertain the
extent Of the damage done by the earth
quake. Thousands of Inhabitants fol-
lowed IN silence the royal carriage Most
OF the churches for which the city was
celebrated are wholly or partially wrecked.
Hardly fine building on the main streets
is left uninjured and many must be recon-
structed from the foundation before they
can be occupied. No effort has been made
yet to repair the damage, as mechanics
fear to work in the city and owners are
apprehensiye that each day may bring
another violent shock
The city is shaken daily by slight shocks
and the inhabitants who fed from the city
fear to return for more than an hour or so
at a time. The royal party viii remain on
the island three days.

President NIcCaffrey's Appeal in Behalf of
Homo Industry.
P. w. McCaffrey was next introduced
as the president of the Federated trades
and he made one of his eloquent talks.
In the brewing business we have but
handful of men employed, and we have
the figures that there are sent out of the
territory $3.50, 600 every year. Years ago
home industry was advocated, as it was
a necessity. But as soon as railroads were
offered it adopted an eastern policy. 1t is
highly imperative that our people should
patronize home industries.
Let the banner be raised SO high that
even the Wasatch range shall not be OBJ
scured by it. With the wolf almost gnash-
ing his teeth at our door, we should strive
for home industry and employment for
the people.

spread OF new religious idea of which
John and David Deems, of this place, are
the chief expounders, the basis being
government of personal conduct accord
ing to the teachings of the new testament
as literally interpreted. Many have
adopted the new religion and
several whole families propose to
follow Deems. They claim to have
performed miraculous cures. Families
are disrupted until the authorities,
backed by the sentiment of orthodox PEG
pie, have determined to break up the
sect. Two OF the most fervent converts
have been adiudged insane by the pro-
bate court judge and sent to the insane
asylum. An attempt will be made in a
