all these advantages. good roads. He
illustrated the necessity of this from
the history OF Greece and Rome. The
latter city became mistress 81 The world
because all roads ted TO Rome Greece
could never attain TO national unity on
account OF the lack OF roads.
Our city. the speaker continued. IL
badly paved. We use the very worst
material FOR paving while We have
plenty ~ rock closr By thai could he

prisoners could be set 10 work ON road
building, to great advantage
Tho smoke nuisance ncXt received thc
attention Of the speaker. He declared
that We have the dearest sky here, and
the purest air, and yet We arc compcl-
ed % breathe this air contaminated
with SCOT. This should not BE-. smoke
consumers arc fact, and we should see
to It that the smoke 10 consumed.
Tho speaker further denounced. In
strOng terms. The fact chat we have. In
the very heart of the city, a casspnyl OF
iniquity. Let us. ne said, create q sem
tlmcut against this so strong that Conn
merc!li street be cleaned out and int
purity driven to some outside district,
where those who wan. It must go un-
protected by the prestige Of q business
until virtue IL protected,
Another point which the speaker very
much emphasized as necessary. II We
will build up a great city was harmony.
In vain. he said, are our efforts TO at
tract capital, unless harmony can be
established. We know, he continued,
thai unfortunate things have transpr.
ed IN Utah. but he expressed his belief
that there Is a general desire 90 do right
now. and II that is true, the past should
be past. You cannot advertise Utah rs
a pesthouse and expect to attract capt.
talists. You canno. send out maps, with
Utah marked black, as has been done,
and hope To attract good settlers In
conclusion. the speaker pleaded for tol-
erance and brotherly love. Wrongs. he
said, can only be rIghted by rights in
tolerance by tolerance, and vice BY vir-
tue. He hoped all church members
would become tolerant and charitable.
