RAILROADS.
Railroad enterprises have been mac
tive during the major portion of the
year, but while this report is being
written, there are encouraging signs
of the construction of the Union Pacific
south and west of Milford. of the Rio
Grande Western from Salina to Rich
field, and the report is current that ar
rangements have beeen perfected for
the first 100 miles of the long prayed
for and much needed Deep Creek rail-
road. Let US hope there is truth in
these signs and rumors. and that soon
we shall be connected by iron parallels
with every rich region about us. Chief
among the the resources upon which
this city depends for its maintenance
and progress, Is the resource of mining.
Because silver has been Frustrated by
adverse legislation we have lately
looked I'm vain to tho silver fields for
the return Of their full tribute; but
during the past year the progress in
the development of our mining inter-

of stlver's proSt1ation, but as well TO
carry conviction to every one That Utah

CONCLUSION.

The writer 'begs to be permitted to
say. for he can say it without egotism.
that he has made the work of the
chamber during his incumbency para
mount to every other business consid-
GRAFTON: that he has taken deep inter
est in its affairs that he has met dis
couragements without encouragement,
and all the time has had an abiding
faith that, in this city of intelligent
men and vast property interests,
enough public spirit existed. though
dormant, if once awakened, to insure
to the people perpetuation of the life
of it's only chartered organization of
business men. but he has had before
him constantly the reminder that in
the midst of life the chamber was in
death. Let US hope that under the
inspiration of statehood and the re-
newal of activity in our great indus
tries, and in the thousand and one
other fortuitouS circumstances which
surround us, the people will yet shake
off their lethargy and contradict the
shameful accusation, made against us.
that we are without the energy and
enthusiasm deemed essential elsewhere
to the expansion of business and the
growth of the city. l appeal to you.
[ appeal to every citizen-to the one
with millions, as well as to the one
whose entire fortune is locked in a
single possession-to help drag the dis
abled car of progress from the mire
and send it forward; this done, it will
be but a few years until every hope
we have cherished for the city will
be realized, and until Salt Lake will
have become one of the great cities of
this republic. Respectfully submitted,
EDWARD T. COLBORN,
Secretary

RECOMMENDATIONS.
l respectfully offer the following re

I respectfully offer the following rec
concentrations:
THAT in the selection of directors
care be taken that men are selected
representative in character. and yet
whose business interests are not so
great as to make it impossible for them
to give the necessary time to the meet
ings of the board. In these respects
the outgoing board is a model of excel
lence
2-Either some new plan of organiza-
ton should be adopted. or the stock
holders should give hearty cooperation
to the new board in bringing recruits
to the membership under the present
plan, If each one of our present mem
bers would agree to secure one addf-
tional member, that alone would in a
measure guarantee the success of the
chamber
3-That at this meeting a committee
of at least twenty-five stockholders
whose loyalty and willingness to work
is beyond question, be appointed as a
standing committee of stockholders to
aid the board of directors in carrying
out the plan of increasing the mem
bership and of promoting the general
interest of the institution; the term of
the service of this committee to extend
for one year.
Al suggest that each stakeholder
place upon himself the obligation of
securing one or more additions to the
membership list. One great trouble we
have experienced is in the collection
of annual dues, about One-third of the
members promptly forward them upon
receipt of notice of their maturity. the
remainder respond only to the persist
ence of the collector. 1 do not know
what the effect would be of making
these dues payable annually in adj
vance; but l do know that if the board
could know at the opening of the year
with certainty the amount of the in
come of the chamber, it could so regu-
late the expenditure as to insure the
meeting of it's just obligations. The
deficiencies from year to year are not
attri butable to the extravaganza of the
board. but to the failure Of members to
pay dues which have been calculated
upon in advance of the creation of
obligations. Possibly a request for
dues in advance at this time might
produce such Panic among members
as to completely disrupt the institu-
ton, so 1 do not recommend any
change, but l do hope that in some
way more certainty in collections can
be brought about.

COMING CONVENTIONS.

I am pleased to report that the trans
Mississippi congress. the Ticket Brok-
ers' association and the association of
Fire Engineers. win hold conventions
in Salt Lake during the current year
These conventions viii bring money
and people to the city, and the money
expended by delegates for expenses will
find its way through every channel of
business. Some entertainment will
need to be provided for these delegates
if for no other reason, than to show
or appreciation of the compliment
paid US by the selection of this city as
meeting place. But l fear that I'M
less the chamber of commerce is more
Loyalty supported than it has been dur
ing the past year. the expenses will
have to be secured by personal sub
scriptiOn; or we viii be compelled to
sink our pride and let our visitors look
out for themselves. With a strong. well
paying membership in the chamber not
only these conventions could be cared
for but many others could be secured,
as the attractions of the city and its
geographical location always give to it
a strong standing as a candidate. Con-
ventions bring people, people bring
money. money brings trade, and the
wonder is that any argument should be
necessary TO convince our people of the
advantages to be derived from making
this convention city.

from tho clouds into the Sound. Tho water
splashed fifty feet high. and made report as
loud as that OF a cannon. Waves ten feet high

glare on the sky which resembled the northern
lights.

struck tho fire bell two taps and then ran dow n
