Il talked with one man who had just
returned from Cripple Creek, said Mr.
Holmes, He had expended $4,000 as an
investment while there and had looked
over the entire district. He told me tina;
ne never heard of Mercur and its mines
or he should have come here and looked
he asked me- What could / say. / have
done all in my power and can do nc
more. But if this city and state should
expend a hundred thousand or so in adj
vertising. the results would be far greater
than are anticipated
g @ @
colorado has hundreds of men all
tnfough the east telling the chances for
investment You find them at every
hotel you stop at. They never ceace
taking of Colorado. They talk Colorado
IN their sleep They are getting money
TOO, and plenty of it. They have invest
ments to offer and make good showings
on lar less foundation than we have"
j. w. Eddelson, of the Mining and
netatlurgical Journal, printed in Los
angeles, was in the city a short time ago.
While here he took a trip to Mercur and
spent several days in the camp, coming
away delighted. He declares it the best
camp on earth, none excepted, and says
that all that is needed is to have some
money invested there and all will be
well. Eddelson believes Utah men ought
to take advantage of the situation and
not permit foreign capitalists TO come in
and get away with the best portion OF
the dividends. Denver owes her great
ness to her citizens. When a strike is
made anywhere in the state, Denver men
run trains to it. Denver newspapers
boom it. Denver men invest in it and
Denver men make money on it. Then
Denver men spend the profits in Denver
and that is why Denver is greater than
Salt Lake. You have every thing here
in Utah to make a great state and the
only reason you are not farther advanced
IS because your capitalists are timid.
shall endeavor to do all that l can for
your state in my paper because / be-
lieve it is destined to be one of the great
est in the Union
Among the Christmas arrivals at the
Knutsford were Mr.. RI. Ritchie and wife.
Mr.. Richie being one of the two advance
representatives of the famous Ellen
to learn that his star was to sing in the
tabernacle here, as he says every Drima
donna who comes west is never content
till she has tested her voice in the grand
auditorium. Mr.. Richie has just received
dispatches from Seattle and Tacoma
stating that Yaw was storming the north
west, and that the enthusiasm over her
was of the most Drodigious sort.

Mr.. Best's mission is more particularly

survey of the work of the department
here.
