MERCUR's ADVANCE.
Camp Had Great Prosperity During
the Past Year.
Especial Correspondence.)

(opeCldl COTIeSpOIUeQCe-J
Mercur, Jan. Alt is estimated that at
least $4,000 has been spent during the
past year in building residences and bust
ness houses in Mercur, during the same
period the population has more than
doubled. with every indication that be-
fore the end of The year it will again
double its present population. During the
year the school house was enlarged to
twice its former capacity, and is still too
small to accommodate the little folks.
1t is proposed to put in a special tele-
phone line between Mercur and Salt Lake,
as the business has become so heavy and
is increasing so rapidly that it is impOssi-
BILE to give a good service on the wire
common to points south of Salt Lake.
The pOstofice reports the sale of $3,4S1. 81
worth of postage stamps, and the sending
through the money order department of
$4,000 during the year 1898. When to this
is added the amount sent out by drafts
checks, etc. it W.T. be seen that the camp
is scattering a great deal of money
around the country.
The Jordan NarrowS company has COM
pleted their line 10 within half mile Of
the power house, and are only awaiting
the arrival of more inSulatOrS to enable
them to make connections.
