SITE FOR THE SUGAR PLANT
SEVERAL TRACTS INSPECTED BY
THE COMMITTEE.
No Selection Has Yet Been Made
Four Places Are Under Considera-
tion-Work to Be Commenced
Soon.

David Eccles arrived yesterday morn
ing from Oregon, and was accompanied
by the Dyer brothers, who have the
contract Tor putting up the sugar fac
tory. A meeting of the committee to
select a site for the factory was imme
6iately held, and Mr.. Eccles. together
with the contractors, Joseph Clark, l..
W. Shurtliff, and d number of others,
rode out and visited the several locali-
ties where it is proposed to erect the
plant. In the afternoon delegations
representing the different interests of
the localities were in ogden, and urged
the claims of their respective sites be-
fore the committee. However, it was
positively announced last night that the
site had not yet been determined, but
that it will be settled in day or two.
There are four places under consider
alton. One is the old race track This
is regarded as an ideal site, except for
the difficulty of getting water on it, as
it is thought that the water would have
to be carried from Ogden river.
Another site which is favorably con-
sidered is in Wilson's precinct, and is
on the plateau just north of the race
track. One objection to this site seems
TO be the high price demanded for the
land by the owners.
The Flaterville site is near the Flater-
Vile creamery. and here the company
is offered 100 acres of land and 100000
brick, but the distance from the city
is urged against it. A fourth site is
on Broom's Bench, just outside the city
limits, and is reached by going about
two and a half miles down Twelfth
street. 1t is on land owned largely by
Mr.. Butler Here the company is Of
fered seven and a half acres of land
free, and cheap rate on other land.
One OF the points urged against this
site is that il is north of ogden river.
and would necessitate bridges if special
tracks were run by the factory.
There is great interest in knowing
just where the factory viii be located.
but according to authentic information,
the directors themselves have not yet
decided. One of the Dyer brothers will
remain in Ogden looking after their in
terests and experimenting the work OF
construction They viii employ about
100 hands as soon as the work is under
way. A contract with the company
provides that the wOrkmen shall be
Utah men, except in case of foremen
and skilled Workmen.

oGpEN,s PROsPECTs.

In closing, the mayor males some
general remarks on the prospects of
the city.
Our city never enjoyed a more sub
stantiGl prosperity than it is enjoying
today.
During the last five years of financial
distress that has prevailed over the
whole country, Ogden City has never
defaulted in the payment of the prin-
cipal and interest of its bonded in
debtedness, as it has become due
Every obligation of our city is as good
as gold. Our Indebtedness during the
last year has been materially reduced
without any additional burden of taxa
ton; in fact, the rate of taxation has
also been reduced.
Our natural advantages, combined
with the INCONSISTENCIES and integrity
of our people, have induced foreign
capital to invest among us. The PiO-
neer Electric Power company has just
been completed at an expenditure Of
81 500 900, and before another year rolls
around, the sugar factory will have
been erected in our midst, costing $780,
600, which will alone employ about 200
men.
The different railroads that center
here are contemplating an extension Of
their various shops.
Every day inquiries are being re-
ceived from eastern capitalists. looking
forward to the erection of foundries
and factories in our midst
Our business houses are solid and
prosperous No famine, sickness or
distress exists among our people. The
bitterness of religious strife has died
