temptation by a number Of wealthy
eastern capitalists. This sanitarium
has been the dream of more than one

now many agree that nothing would
do more for Salt Lake than the Uti-

City of Many Homes.
But. outside of all these speculative
enterprises, contractors base all their
calculations for a successful season on
the number of homes in course Of con-
structlOn or planned for the immedi-
ate future The number and total cost
of these will make an astonishing show
ing at the close of the year. Among
the houses going up there are not MANY
that would be considered fine. but there
are many substantial brick and stone
structures many individual homes. and
many terraces erected for rent.
No part of the city is being neg
lected III the matter of home building.
A view from an elevated position on
the east OF north bench reveals new
buildings going up on all sides. from.
the University of Utah on the east TO
the Jordan river on the west. and
from the northern to the southern city
limits.
In discussing the situation contrac-
tors do not fail to cali attention to
the fact that there has been no labor
trouble of any kind anywhere in Utah
this year, but that all mechanics are
at work at good wages. They also note
the fact that there has been no trouble
in getting building materials this year,
except steel work from the far east
or fine wood for finishing from eastern
factories. Building stone. brick and
lumber have been on hand to meet
all demands from the opening Of the
season. and it is now thought that this
condition viii continue to the end.
Taken all in all. the season. from the
standpoint of the contractor, is con-
Sidered all right.

BUILDINGS ARISE
ON ALL SIDES
Local Contractors Assert That Pres
ent Season Will Break Records.
HOMES IN ALL DIRECTIONS
SEVERAL BIG ENTERPRISES ARE
PLANNED FOR NEAR FUTURE.

Persons who have not paid paTticU-
lar attention to the matter of build
ing in Salt Lake will be surprised TO
learn that contractors consider the
present season the best the city has
experienced since the recovery from the
boom about eight years ago.
OF course the contractors do not pro-
fess TO be able to tell how the sea
son viii measure up with previous
years when the totals are made up at
the close Of 1905. What they do as
SeTt Is that the season has opened bet
ter than any other and that the out
look is better at this time than it was
at the corresponding time in any recent
year.
The reason these statements will sur
prise most persons is that much less
building on large undertakings is go
ing forward now than has been the
case in several recent years. 1t is true
that work is still going forward on the
federal building, on the Catholic ca
thedraI, on the First PRESBYTERIAN
church, on the Exposition building at
the state Fair grounds and on the
Packard library building. but all of
these buildings are now so near COM
pletiOn that they cut but little figure
in the calculations of contractors.
More Importance Is attached to the
extensive building under way at Fort
Douglas to the new Masonic temple.
to the new First Methodist church. to
the new zinc works in North Salt
Lake to the new Smelter planned to
be erected west of the city. to the new

Local Stocks Too High
In the commercial stock market
there was little activity during the
week and what little there was was
confined largely to the sugar seCuTi-
ties. The reason for the inactivity was
that most of the stocks are being held
at too high a figure to insure a Ger
tain income over s per cent net for
any given time, and investors are not
anxious to get In under such circum-
stances. The quotations at the close

Business District Expands.

Significance is attached to the fact
That outside investors are reaching out
for property outside of the cOngested
business district The number Of sales
recorded on state street and Third
South have set many to thinking. The
location of the Masonic temple on the
corner Of First South and Second East
streets Is exerting strong pull in that
direction. The near approach of the
opening Of the federal building Is eN-
eTting steady pull in that direction
This is felt in the demand for Market
street property 1t is predicted that a
better class Of business houses Will be
opened in the vicinity of the federal
building as soon as it is opened to the
the corner of West Temple and Market
streets by P H Lannan and a silent
partner bears out this prophecy
4 good illustration of the trend Of
things in the business district is fur
niShed i'm the sale of the TgnaziO BertO-
lini block on West Second South street
opposite the Board of Trade building.
This property, 2S1z feet front by 165
feet deep with a tWO-stOTy brick build
ing, was sold 10 William F Armstrong
and Oscar W MOyIe for Sl25O0. With
in less than a week after the sale Mr.
Armstrong was offered bonus of 81 POO
for his half Of the purchase.
Demand for Residence Property.
While the demand of the outsiders
thus far has been for business property.
all real estate dealers report that their
best business thus far has been in resi-
dence property The activity in this
class of property is not confined to any
section of the city, or to any particular
class of property. Building lots on the
north bench are being sold as high up
as Thirt zenith. An entire block on
Ninth sold during the week for $4,000.
