Utah reports a production of nearly
100000 pounds Of copper this last
year. This yield is solely incidental
to our other mining opera tons, as no

OTHER RESOURCES.

We have valuable deposits Of native
sulphur, beds of onyx that are almost
precious stones, Quarries of the finest
building and paving stones; asphalt for
paving purposes, and the finer qualities
Of asphalt are now being hauled long
distances in wagons and shipped to
the seaboard and to Europe, for the
manufacture of the finest va-nishes.
Our salt companies are now supplying
almost the entire inter-mounta.n coun-
try.
We have one of the most successful
beet sugar factories in America 1t has
produced the past year nearly seven
and half million pounds of dry gran
ulated sugar, and l am pleased TO mite
that It has commenced paying 7and-
some dividends. There should be at
least a dozen such factories in these
mountain valleys that seem so vel
adapted to the growth OF the sugar
beet.
Iron in quantity and quality equal to
the Lake Superior ranges exists in Iron
county and numerous other localities
in the state. but their utilization must
be deferred until better transportation
facilities are secured.
Anthracite coal has recently heen
found about fifty miles from this CITY.
and it is now being hauled in wagons
and sold in the Provo market.
Our city Is now lighted with natural
gas, but its price should be reduced
so that it would become available for
fuel. Utah is the largest producer. of
lead of any state in the Union, but
as large portion of our silver-lead
ores are sold to the Colorado smelt IS.
our modest neighbors in that great
and enterprising ste tie take the credit
of producing all the lead they buy
from us.

In the great Mercur gold district.
the similarity OF the formation to that
OF the Rand district in South Africa
is most marked. In both cases the
gold occurs in the non-metallic form.
or if it is in metallic form it is an i'm
palpable powder, and the Rand, as
well as the AIercur owe their existence
as productive mining districts to the
discovery Of the cyanide process.

No FEB. 70 IN 1000.

The following explanation is given why
the year 1900 will not be counted among
leap years: The year Is 365 days, 5 hours
and minutes long; II minutes are taken
every year to make the year 1851, days
long and every fourth year we have an
extra day. This was JUIIUs CAESARS
arrangement. Where do these u minutes
come from9 They come from the foturc
and are paid by emitting leap year every
hundred years. But 10 leap year Is omit

be a leap year after all. So we borrow
II minutes each year, more than paying
our borrowings back by omitti ~
three leap years in there centurial years,
and square matters by having n leap year
in the fourth centurial year. Pope
GREooRY's arrangement is so exact, and
the borrowing and the paying back ball
ance SO closely, that we borrow more than
we pay to the extent of only one day in
1856 years.

THE CRIME OF THE CENTURY.

The year now closed will have very
good claim TO have witnessed what will
rank as the crime OF the century.
Nothing up TO this period, since the
birth OF the Nineteenth Century, can be
recalled with more OF horror than the
crushing OF Armenia. To be considered
as the crime of the century this awful
episode has few rivals.
1t is an awful thing that has been done
In Armenia, that is being done in Arme-
MIA today. while the civilized world views
the spectacle with almost the stolidity Of
a Roman audience witnessing the
slaughter OF Christians in the public
arena. Armenia is itself a slaughter
pen. The two million inhabitants,
thrifty, enterprising people, are
uOOneu 10 VI thot
their religion may be wiped out OF Turkey.
More than one hundred thousand OF them
have been butchered outright. The Turk
whose religion, politics and daily life are
In accord pretends to see no crime in the
act OF determination, and Christianity and
civilization outside the Ottoman borders
appear to have no means OF enforcing a
different view.
There are only five more years left to
the century and it Is to be hoped that no
crime that can blot them will parallel the
Armenian hideousness.

THERE is politics even in poetry. Over
in England the appointment OF .he new
laureate is commented upon much as
partizans in this country would view the
selec ction of a Democratic poet by Dem
ocratic President when there were lots
OF Republican poets who could make
much better rhymes.

1866 years.

IT is announced that one OF the Com
moners who enjoyed New Years peerase
appointment at the gracious behest OF her
majesty, the Queen, has been large
donor TO the purse of the Conservative
party. His elevation looks very much OF
the nature OF ordinary Yankee political
spoils.

IL may he unnecessary 10 remark tnet
this is Eighteen Hundred and Nirety-six,
but a few observations on this auspicious
occasion may not be out OF place. There
is much TO be hoped for from the new
year, principally because the old year
ought 10 have been done and saw so
many things done that did not seem to
bring any blessings on earth. Eighteen
Hundred and Ninety-fve was an odd sort
OF year, anyway. There were some un-
usually horrible chapters written In
history, there was sn imposing war,
thers were bond issues, a VANDERBILT
wedding, five eciIpses, two full moons in
one month, and amid the crash of things
generally we witnessed the birth OF a
Goo-Goo here II Providence, right
among us. We would not be misunder-
stood as feeling that the year now gone
was particularly conspicuous for calamity
or that it did not furnish us a fair share
OF Joy. Not at all. Olly, as we now
look back upon il for the last time be-
fore facing the bright sun o, '96, it
strikes us that many OF the happenings
OF the old year, the desirable as well as
the undesirable, were OF a peculiar
kind, frequently extravagant. freaky,
abnormal, and so are likely TO live long
in memory.
The New Year is leap year and there
will be no other leap year until 1904.
That in itself may signify many things
to the lovers OF signs and oddities.
We shall have no leap year in 1900 simply
because the calendar makers so provided,
and though they did their work long
while ago, and planned it for centuries
yet ahead OF us, we abide by il because it
is a very good arrangement. In view Of
this circumstance and Of the recent de-
velopment OF womanhood in a new
and master ul way we shall watch with
interest what may come out OF the leap
year that Is now opened.
We are accustomed TO bite off life in
yearly chunks, to shake OF ne old and
put on the new with each successive
January first, to make our good resolu-
tions and take a new brace on the thres-
hold of q new year.
There is an indefinable inspiration
about this birth OF year with all the
vague promises Of TO-DAY displacing the
hard facts OF yesterday. The stroke OF
midnight on December 81 sounds different
from any other clock striking of the year.
Instinctively we look forward instead OF
backward IL only for moment.
And there is happiness and whole
sonIeness in looking forward Peace.
contentment, happiness could be
guaranteed to us all IL We could look
forward every day-the year through
forward, outward, upward, instead OF
backward, inward and downward. 1t is
a glorious habit to cultivate, this look
ing forward. We suggest practice at il
for 1896. II persisted In, the dusk that
closes each day will be as full OF hope
and cheerfnlness as the dawn that brings
the day. and when 1897 comes in we
shall enjoy looking backward-just once
at the delightful year OF '96
