Gentlemen-The year Just closed
has been u prosperous one for Utah
and Salt Lake city. Our merchants
have enjoyed an active and profitable
trade. Our city has grown largely ia
population, rs Is Witnessed by the fact
that upwards OF 1900 new houses have
been built and occupied during the
year besides ut least 600 apartments
and offices In the upper stories OF
business blocks. This shows u healthy
gain In the population OF the city,
which Is now estimated by every test
short OF actual census to be nearly
$4,000.
The volume Of business OF the city
a. shown by operations OF the clearing
house, amounted TO sgi 900, 900, which
was gam over the previous year OF
Sl2,0OO,00O. The only business that
languiahed during the year WAS tho
dealing In real estate, and yet the sales
Tor the year amounted 10 nearly 49,.
100000.
Many Hno business structures have
been erected. Nine elegant modern
school houses, with all OF the latest APP
pliances for heating and ventilation,
have been built, ut u cost OF about

the handsome compliment of being
chosen first vice-president with no OPP
posiii'n, and Mr.. GillespIe's proxies
carried the day for Mr.. Cameron az
second vlce.president against George
A. Lowe. When the making up OF
the board was called, Messrs. Gillespie
and Rowe went Into combination, anu
throwing their proxies together, elected
the board named below. Mr.. Rowe
stated that Mr.. Wells would prefer not
to serve ON the directory this year.
