growth.

There are twenty-one different committees
of the Cache Commercial Club just suppose,
for instance. that each of these committees
decided TO accomplish one single thing in
year, Then suppose again, the decision was
actually carried out-that would mean twenty
one different advantageous things accomplish
ed for the valley in year. That would mean
almost as much as has been accomplished in
ten or twenty years past, and coming at this
time the value would be almost Unreasonable.
Is it unreasonable to expect each and every
committee to carry through in year some
actual definite idea? Surely not, especially
when it is considered that the committee is
not supposed TO do the work alone. These
committees are supposed TO suggest and be the
motive power in presenting propositions bear
ing along their particular line The commit
tee meets occasionally, goes over some propos-
ed development some desired change some
improvement, and fathers plan TO secure the
desired end. 1t presents the matter TO the
club aud through thick and thin, in the face
Of opposition from Others with plans Of their
own, fights and In the end wins out The club
then takes up the matter, and the enthusiasm,
the persistence the energy of the committee
keeps the club at work until the plan is carried
to success Is there single committee in
that club composed of such poor material that
1t can not In year do single thing for Cache
Valley? Let us hope not. The REPUBLICAN
believes that each committee is a power, a
latent power up-to-date It's true but never
thecss power for great good once aroused to
action,
Why not get active now? What's the mat
ter with the Committee on Manufactures
and New Industries getting in touch with the
necessities OF the valley the industries that
could be supported here and the nducement
that could be offered for some needed industry
seeking location?
Look at the wonderful scope Of that COM
mittee on Lands-lrrigation, Agriculture,
Horticulture and their Products What If
that committee should take up that water
dnculty and advance ways and means of stor-
ing water in the proper season, thus cutting
oil the costly law suits of the future?
That Mines and Mining Committee might
be able to formulatea successful plan of dem
onstrating the mineral value OF our mountains.
II there is ore there, the quicker we find il the
better. II there isn't any there, the sooner II
is demonstrated the better.
Statistcs-theres committee for this yet
| If accurate, definite information in regard to
the valleys production its soil, the climatic
condition, power in streams available for fact
DRY use, its manufactures, pay rolls land
values, water privileges, mining prospects,
horticultural and agricultural posSibn,uies,
taxes for various purposes miles OF pavement,
graded Streets were desired, how could IL be
obtained? Occasionally stranger drops into
the city and asks for literature of the valley,
but the statistics have never been gathered
Public improvements aud Parks--thnR of
what that committee might suggest and " ork
for. There's absolutely no limit to IL.
Advertising and Promotion, Good Roads,
Sanitation and Public Welfare, and dozen
more committees are named, any one Of which
thoroughly in earnest could accomplish thai
which would work TO the everlasting welfare
