Salt Lake Realty
AS AN INVESTMENT.

The Herald presents herewith the
first of a series of articles for the sun
day issue on the advantages of invest
ment in Salt Lake realty. Each of
the articles will be contributed by well
known real estate men, thoroughly in
formed and conservative in their views.
Notwithstanding the dull times of
the past five years, Salt Lake has been
reaching forward with good strides
and is on the eve of an era. of great
energy and activity We predict with
the utmost confidence that the next
three years win show the greatest ad-
vance in enterprises of tangible ad-
vantage and importance the city has
known in any five years Nof its exist
ence.-
Some complaints are made as to val
ueS of real estate, but our advice is to
get in at once, for prices will surely
advance; they are not unreasonable.
The greatest possibilities and certain
ty of advancement in any city of the
size or even much larger than Salt
Lake lies today right here in our midst,
easy to get, in our business property.
No Surer investment can be had than
in our Main and State street properties.
The suburbs and middle property offer
another good field for investment With
the growth of the city, the leading and
best resident portions of the city will

and stimulate, and at the same time

day, but it will be high tomorrow; its

But it is surely coming, for in some
mysterious, unknown way, wealthy

of our possibilities and they are after
some of the pudding.

to their possibilities. A strong organ

IN THE POLICE COURT.

China Joe, a dirty and dilapidated
looking Chinaman, was charged with
assault and battery in Judge Tim
mony's court yesterday. Joe was ar
rested on Commercial street by Officer
Johnson, who said that the Chinaman
had been hanging around without do
ing any work. While the officer was
taking his prisoner to the station the
latter suddenly pulled an ugly looking
razor from his pocket and made a pass
at the officer. The latter, however,
brought his club to play upon the
Chinaman's head and the latter sat
down rather abruptly. He made no
more trouble. Joe pleaded not guilty
to vagrancy, but the judge thought
otherwise and he told Joe that he would
have to labor in the canyon for the
next thirty days.
Charles McNIiIls. a 13-year-oId lad,
was charged with assault and battery
The plaintiff, Mrs. Dinney, alleged
that McMilS had thrown her son Ar
thur, a. 10 or 11-year-old boy, in the
river and held him under the water.
Arthur said that he and the defendant
and several other boys were at the
river to go in swimming, and that be
cause he would not let McMilIs see a
whistle which he had. the latter threw
him in the creek and held him under a
minute and then ran awav-
McMills said, however, that when he
asked to see the whistle, Dinney re-
fused and called him names. He said
he tried to make young Dinney take
back what he said. but he would not,
and he then took him down the stream
to a shallow place and pushed him in,
but didn't hold him under The judge,
after rejecting over the matter for
awhile. decided to give the boy a lee
turing ard let him go.
