What Utah Is Doing at the Worlds
Fair.
President w. z. Hubbard returned
from his eastern trip yesterday, full of
enthusiasm over Salt Lakes prospects.
GA trip to the Worlds fair" said Mr..
Hubbard to a HERALD reporter last night,
swill do anyone good, and if he is an
American and not already full of patriot
ism, he will soon become so after reach
ing Chicago. Chicago deserves great
credit for the manner in which her peo-
pie have conducted the fair and handled
the crowds of visitors. Think of over
zoo, 200 people per day. and OF all
nationalities, commingling together week
after week tremendously, and all ap-
parently happy. The fair has wonder
ful civilizing and educating effecG.''
As to Utah, people everywhere seem to
take & great interest in our territory and
seek information regarding our resources.
The Utah silk exhibit is excellent and
credit. Il attracts much attention. The
mining exhibit is fine and compares favor
ably with others. The agricultural ex-
hibit is good as far as it goes, but lacks
much of being complete. Utah's exhibits
do not do justice to our resources. This
territory has resources greater than any
of the middle. and not surpassed by any
of the states. Our population is larger
than the seven counties comprisin z
southern California, and to say our ex-
hibit does credit to Utah il an injustice.
California if spending S25 600 and
Southern California independent of
that, $1,000, in literature advertising
her resources. Montana, Idaho, Colorado,
and other states have finer literature on
their resources, while Utah is not spend
ing dollar in that direction. The rail-
way companies have kindly furnished
such matter. The Tabernacle choir de-
serves great credit, and helped Utah i'm
mensely. The singers did great deal to
advertise the city ana territory, and their
effects were appreciated by all. When
the young ladies of the choir q
think they were all young ladies'
came on the stage / heard a num-
Der of gentlemen say; "I'm going
to Utah.'' l told them Utah was
good enough for me. Still, we are losing
the opportunity of lifetime by not plac.
ing our resources before the people. AL
over the country, people are thinking OF
changing their locations, and lettering
their conditions. We know they would
do it in Utah, and it is our duty to lei
them know what our resources and
climate are, otherwise they will not know
where the best location is. People
eagerly take away literature descriptive
of Utah. The choir has drawn attention
to the territory, and we should follow il
up. A good advertisement Tor Utah i:
found in Machinery Hall. By the mode o.
the next largest engine there is the legend;
