DEVELOPMENT of our western country.
The two are SO closely interviewer that
the story of one means the story of
both. Even the most Indifferent Will
admit that The Herald has led the
way in the onward march of this com
munity in all material lines: and there
are but few who viii not freely grant
that on this. its thirtieth anniversary,
it is better equipped than ever before
to blaze the way Of all true progress
Starting of The Herald
Going back to the beginning; though
there was poverty of material in the
office, and though the issuance of the
first number Of the paper was accom-
panied by the gravest difficulties, there
is evidence everywhere in those early
issues Of The Herald of brains. grit.
independence. At the head of
the editorial column stands the
name % Edward L. Sloan. a
man who long since passed to
his rest. but man who while living
made his influence deeply felt upon the

The character of the men and their de-
termination were clearly shown in their
brief Introduction in the first issue.
We beg leave. to roll up our sleeves
and commence work is their only re-
quest.
At the time the paper was estab-
lished John T. Game was in Washing
ton assisting William H. Hooper in his
congressional duties and incidentally
learning the ropes himself. After his re-
turn from the cast he became inter-
ested in The Herald and on the Isl of
September he purchased a one-third
interest in the plant Mr.. Game then
became managing editor; MIR. Sloan
remained as editor and Mr. Dunbar was
known as general agent. There was
never a day from the time the first is
sue appeared when the success of the
enterprise was in doubt. There was a
demand for the paper. As Mr.. Game
says, it was "snappy and saucy and in
dependent" Tt was an organ of no
party and no church, but gave the

ger, carrying the history of the world
for the day into the remotest parts of
Utah. Nevada, Idaho, Montana, Wyo-
ming, Arizona and Colorado, end even
out beyond till it meets the messengers
from other cities. At the start and for
Ion gafterWard there were few outside
Of Salt alike who knew the Herald: now
there are few within reach in al this
region who do not read its pages aT%S
get therefrom their impressions of what
is going on in the world
There was no politics in The Herald
at the start and as a consequence its
influence was small in moulding public
opinion except as TO local affairs. Now
the DaDer is looked upon as the best
exponent in all the region in which it
circulates Of the true interests Of the
people and the principles Of a great
and growing party. To tell the complete
story of the growth Of The Herald in
strength and influence from its most
humble beginning to the present would
be TO tell the story Of the growth and

news of the day with such independent
comment as its editors thought wise
and right Mr.. Game was instrumental
in interesting Delegate Hooper and
other public spirited men in the paper
in a financial way and it was not long
before substantial improvements began
to crop out. especially in the matter of
Geographic news.
Those Old Advertisements.
The changes that have taken place
IN this city in the past thirty years
are strongly impressed on the mind by
a glance through the advertising col
umns of The Herald, Many who were
prominent IN the business circles OF the
city then now sleeD in the cemetery
on the hill; others have scattered off
into other channels Of life. others still
have retired after honorable careers
and are succeeded by sons many of
whom were not yet born when The
Herald first saw the light of day. A
few. a very few who were prominent
in business thirty years ago are still

community in which he lived. The very
nerve Of the man in helping to start
daily paper in this unpromising soil
at that early day crops out in every
line that he wrote The business man
ager who assisted in the launching of
the little paper, whose name was print
ed in bold type at the head of the
business department of the first page,
was William c. Dunbar. who still lives
and continues to rejoice in the progress
of The Herald. Mr.. Dunbar has read
the paper regularly from the appear
anoe of the first issue. and still tells
with evident relish of the struggles Of
the infant thirty years ago. -
To these two men named above must
be given all the credit for the estab-
hshment Of The Herald and its guild
ance through its earlier and more try
ing days They had but one reporter
at the start, but were themselves ready
for any kind of work, from hiking the
rollers up to writing doubIe-leaded edi-
torisls on the -Prussian war.
