cREMAToRY IN SIGHT.

4 T LAST A DEFINITE STEP has been taken
4 toward the erection of a sadly needed crematory
for Salt Lake The site has been selected, and 1t
is now in order % prepare the plans and rush the
building 10 completion at the earliest possible mo
1nenr The council is entitled to congratulations
for giving an impetus to the work. The crematory
should have been in operation long since. The people
are to be congratulated the indication that dilatOTy
tactics have now been abandoned aud that their money
viii be put to the use for which 1t intended
And in this connection it may not be mreason-
able TO inquire how soon we may expect to have
iail and police court room. The jail which Is being
used now would be disgrace to a city one-hfth the
size of Salt Lake. 1T IS vermin-haIHted, filthy hole
devoid of proper sanitary arrangements and containing
not half the accommodations would expect to ind
in a dog kennel.
Money with which TO pay for the new jail is lying
