MARSH QUITS SALT LAKE
Owner of Wagon Road into Goldfield
Will Try to Interest Los
Angeles Merchants.

G l. Marsh Of Goldheld, New. start
ed yesterday afternoon for Los Angeles.
and it was reported after his departure
that he has undertaken the journey for
the express purpose of interesting mer-
chants i'm that city in his scheme of
freight wagon road from Caliente into
Goldfeld.
In other words. it was stated that in
asmuch as Salt Lal1ers. by not subscrib-
ing the $500 necessary to pay the eN-
penSeS of a committee to examine Mr.
Marsh property. thereby showed
disposition not to engage i'm GOldfeId
trade, Mr. Marsh had decided to confer
with Los Angeles merchants. many Of
whom had offered to make individual
contracts with him in the event of the
failure of Salt Lake business men and
Jobbers entering into the scheme.
G. Z. Cleayeland. of the business
mems committee. i'm speaking of this
matter, said the Marsh project was dis
caUded because the route was not con-
sideTed feasible. 1t was impossible TO
demonstrate to the business men of
Salt Lake that the route could be made
feasible with any reasonable outlay Of
money. and that it could be made prof
liable 10 shin goods into the GoIdfieId
country. MI CleaVeland seemed to eX-
press the thought of the business men
of this city when he said that the Salt
Lake route would soon be running
trains. and that then much better
routes would be Opened into the min
ing camps. II is by no means the in
tentiOn Of the Salt Lake merchants to
abandon this trade They are convinced
that a profitable business can be
opened up i'm southern Nevada. and
they are determined TO have their full
share of it.

they are prone to magnify the diff
cultieS and minimize their resources at
the slightest hint of failure Quality
of faith. the speaker emphasized. and
not quantity, is what is to be most de-
sired. He urged all to get away from

The chief end of man. he said is
to please God" without faith he
thought il impossible to fulfill this end,
impossible to please God, or to get any
real, near, tender relations with any
