Company Negotiating Al Deal.

Alberta Land and Colonization
Company Negotiating IL Deal.
Some months ago the Alberta Land
and Colonization company was incor-
porated in this city and the promoters
of the great enterprise at once got
down to work with the end in view Of
settling up a great stretch of country
lying between and around the towns of
Alberta and Cardston, Canada, there
being in the neighborhood of 100000
acres of this choice land controlled by
the company. European capitalists
were interested in the properties of the
company and an English company has
practically determined to invest some
of its surplus in a colonization PROPOSE
ton. and the probabilities are that
half a million acres of the land held
by the Alberta people will be sold to
the foreigners. James A. Cunningham,
A. E. Hyde and John w. Taylor, mem
bers of the company, will sail for Lon
don next week for the purpose of he
gotiating the deal in person. Messrs.
Hyde and Taylor have been in Chicago
for some time past and there they will
be Joined by Mr.. Cunningham, who
left for the east yesterday morning.
Details of this prospective sale to the
European capitalists are not available
at this time, on account of the secrecy
which has been maintained by the
members of the company, but it is
known that the outlook is very favor
able and the indications are that the
Utah people will gain every point.

NEBRASKA coLoNIsrs COMING.
People of kencsav Have Sent Out
Investigating Agent.

James r. Currier, of Kenesaw, Ne
braska, arrived in the city yesterday,
and during the next week or two he
will visit and inspect all of the irri-
cation propositions which are within
reasonable distance of Salt Lake. He
comes to Utah as the agent OF a col
ony of South Central Nebraska farm
erS who have tired of the conditions
which surround them in the state
named and are DESTROYS of coming out
to Utah where they may put to prac-
teal use their knowledge of the art
of farming with the advantages gained
through irrigation. Mr.. Currier was a
delegate to the National Education
convention at Denver this week and in
coming to Utah carried out the wishes
of quite a number of his neighbors
and friends. In the event of his report
of the conditions here being favorable,
the colony will organize into a develop
ment company and come direct to this
territory, to locate on the lands Sc
lected by their agent now in the field.
1t is the intention of Mr. Currier to
make a visit to the lands under the
Bear River early in the coming week
and then will follow inspections of the
other propositions which have been
brought to his attention since his ar
rival in the territory. He stated yes
terday that if the colony from the vi
cinity of Kenesaw decides to come to
Utah. which is most probable, it viii
prove a beneficial factor in the set
ting up of this territory. All of the
prospective members are fairly we'll
TODD people, and they are honest and
Industrious. Speaking of the condi-
ton of the crops in his section of Ne
braska, Mr.. Currier stated that the in
dications are that the crop of all
classes of grains will be about three
quarters.

All of the contracts for construction
having been let. active operations have
commenced down a the works OF the
Utah Portland Cement company, re-
Gently sold at trustees sale to J. H.
Norman, and it is anticipated that
within the next two weeks the new
kiln will be completed and ready for
real work. When he purchased the
plant, MI. Norman, who is the presi-
dent OF the Cement company, announ-
ced that it was the intention of him
self and associates to effect a re-organ-
ization of the company and carry out
the original plans of the enterprise IL
a somewhat different manner from
that at first outlined. He has since
decided, however. that it will be bet
ter policy to make some extensive
changes in the works and then get
them into actual operation before any
attempt is made to interest outside
people in the project. With this end in
view, it has been decided to put in a
new kiln and discard the old, besides
making some other alterations and re-
pairs. This kiln will not be as large
as the other but it will embody ideas
which are not experiments and the
success is, therefore, assured.
Early in the week the grinding of
the natural cement obtained from the
deposits in Parley's canyon, now owned
by Mr. Moorman and associates, will
commence and by the date of the COM
pletion of the new kiln, which should
not be more than two weeks away,
everything will be in readiness for the
loading in of the ground raw materials.
All is now activity down at the works,
and again is Prof. Cairns in charge Of
the industry. Mr.. Norman has gone
back to his home in the east.
