ments 10 accommodate the crowds
which Il Is expected will flock 10 the
beach tomorrow afternoon In order TO
hear Governor Roosevelt speak. From
inquiry at the Rio Grande Western and
oregon Short Line passenger depart
ments this morning the information
was forthcoming that the excursions
to this city from the various points In
this state would be well patronlzed, and
that people Of either political party
were avaning themselves Of the cheap
rates In order to pay a visit to Salt
Lake. The train from sanpete and So
yler valleys, due 10 arrive this evening,
Is said to be a heavy one.
A special time table Is to be put on
for saltair tomorrow, ana trains Will

SUCCESSFUL SEASON.
Manager Batcman stated this morn
ing that the most successful season on
record for Saltair would positively close
on Saturday night, after which date,
but one train would be run every day
at 2:l5 p. m, returning from Saltair at
4,45 The fare for the round trip viii
be placed at one dollar
The season now drawing 10 a close
has been IN every respect banner one.
There has been deal OF speculation
INDUCED IN In regard 10 the amount
OF business transacted by this CONF
pany during the past summer and sew
eral guesses, which were wide OF the
mark, hazarded IN the public press.
Contrary 10 the general belief, the c los
ing OF Garfield Beach this season has
not materially affected the returns, as
a glance at this years business VIII
demonstrate In every case the eXcur-
sions heretofore secured by Garfield
Beach went to Lagoon; despite this
fact. however a splendid business has
marked the summer Of 1900 at Saltair.
aud II is estimated that the number Of
bought tickets on the trains averaged
1000 day during the FIRST ninety days
Of the season. Since the first week OF
this month the receipts OF the road
have naturally fallen on although last
Saturday over 1000 people visited the
lake. Taken all IN all the manage
ment OF the railroad and the beach are
TO be congratulated upon the splendid
record nd showing made this year.
