Building Which Has Served for
Score of Years Now Being
Hauled Away.
CHANGES IN THREE DECADES.
within a Week the Old Structure VIII
BE Gone and Work OF Great
Promise Begun.

"Just "a years ago today l arrived
in Salt Lake" said Jim" Forsythe
as he stood in front of the oregon
Short Line depot this morning. "Thir-
ty-four years ago and what change
has come over the old place. These
yards were not what they are now.
remember we got in here at night
and the trainmen and yardmen were
running around with lanterns in their
hands. They had the yards lighted
with lanterns, TOO A little old shack
served as depot in those days. The
freight sheds which were built after
are now gone; the fine new freight
shed reaching clear through the block;
the viaduct and the two dozen tracks
are all big improvements and yet the
work is just beginning. The terminals
here present mighty changed APP
rearance. The only building still
standing which l remember seeing
then Is that little watch-house there"
He had reference to a little two-by-
four shed standing at the foot of South
Temple street used by the flag-man
who regulates the passage OF tfaulc
over the tracks. Old man Kelley was
Waterman then; he is dead now. He
didn't have the traffic to watch there
is now: nor as many tracks and trains
to watch but he never let an accident
occur.
1.-TWO years after / came John w.
Young started building a road out 10
Garfield. The rails were commenced
on the ground just south of the pas
senger station they are now hauling
away The tracks went west on South
Temple street. A few years later the
need for more room and facilities than
the the old shack could afford became
so great II was decided to build more
up-to-date depot. My brother-in-law,
Peter Reid was boss carpenter for the
U, p. here then and after the plans and
specifications were drawn UP and the
lumber piled up in the yards, the work
of erection began. The building has
served since until a few days ago when
the other Improvements were complet-
ed and it was the next in line to go;
to make room for bigger and better
things as the other old landmarks have
done 1t was considered an elegant
structure after being completed and for
years was large enough for all needs,
Now it is going. so splendid depot

HORTICULTURAL REPORT.
County Inspector Sorenson and Dep
uties Visit St7 Salt Lake Orchards,

The report of County Horticultural
Inspector John p. Sorenson for the
month of July was filed with the coun-
ty commissioners today and follows in
full:
I'm the month OF July the deputy in
spectors worked about half time, max
ing total of 1903 days work. There
were visited and inspected SIT places
where trees are grown, 1913 of which
was the first visit of the inspector for
this year. There were cut down 274
trees, 60 per cent of which was for
pear blight, the balance for other dis
oned by the smelter smoke. There
were 427 trees condemned to be cut
down hereafter. and 65 new notices
served to clean up. There were 1903
orchards sprayed the second and third
time. There were 225 orchards found
to be cultivated and los ochards az
fected by pear blight. The raspberry
crop has been from fair to good and is
now mostly picked and sold.
81 have visited the leading orchards
in district and along with the dep
uty. also inspected about 30 acres of
nursery stock, containing about 100000
young trees and plants investigated
several cases of gross neglect and re-
ported two cases for the action of the
county attorney and the court as the
law required. All of which is respect
fully submitted as my report for the
month of July, 1907"

BANQUET AT THE CULLEN.
Il. d. Haywood Gives Dinner TO the
Local Newspaper Men.

3. b. Haywood. proprietor of the new
Cullen hotel, was the host at distinct
ly recherche dinner last evening. Eff
teen local newspapermen were the
gusts and during the three hours the
menu was discussed toasts, stories and
elevating small talk were the features.
The banquet was served in the or
binary of the hotel--a room lavishly fit
, ted UP In mission style along the lines
commensurate with the palatial APP
pointments of the reconstructed hostel
ry.
Ben Haywood opened the ball by
making one of the longest speeches Of
his public career. He said
81 don't like to speak of commercial
things at this banquet, but / can't help
telling yop that l have made good
trade tonight When invited you boys
here knew l would have so much bet
ter company than you would, that L
felt had made the best OF the trade. +"
He was followed by Judge c.. c..
Goodwin and from that time on all
present We're subject to call and took
for their themes light subjects that
ran the gamut from nature takers to
the phenomena of telepathy. Between
installments of journalistic oratory the
following menu was discussed:

Filet of Striped Bass a la Normandie

The Live Oak Democrat, in answer
to paragraph in the Ocala Banner
relative to the gift of s2,500 by Capt.
w. j. Hillman, of Live Oak, to the
Salvation Army, of Jacksonville, says:
The amount recently subscribed by
Capt. Hillman to aid the Salvation
Army in their work is only a drop
in the bucket as compared with the
amounts ehhas given them hereto
fore. For years he has been a regu-
lar contributor to the Salvation Army
fund. Not only that, but he has
given thousands of dollars to the
Methodist, Baptist. Presbyterian and
other churches, and to ministers of
the gospe. His gifts to young men
and young ladies in Florida of money
to enable them to attend college
and finish their education, has been
enough (and the amount grows
larger every year, to build for the
SSAi any odITdchS IN JACK
sonville without any get busy quick
contribution from Jennings or Gil
christ. The good part of Capt. Hill
mans giving is that he never tells of
it or brags of it, If it gains publicity,
it does so through some other sour
&c" The Democrat resents the in
ference that Capt Hillman gives
with any thought Of benefit to his
own personal interests, political or
commercial. He asplres to no Office.

Today we-and farmers growing IN
wealth beyond anything they could
ever have dreamed of a few Years
ago; we find mechanics and day lab
orers in such demand as never before,
with wages almost double what they
were ten years ago; we find the ad-
vance in values of city and country
property, in minerals and timber
lands. making millions fairly rich;
we find that in six years the wealth
of farmers has grown from $50. AGO.

of 1900, 100000, which is more than
one-half as much as the total capital

ten times as much as the entire ma

States. Instead of wealth being con-
centrated in few hands. it is being

At Auditorium Tonight.

Tonight is the night of all nights
for theatre goers in Live Oak. The
Wills Company, in all its entirely,
viii present in the Auditorium, "a
Trip to Atlantic City" a musical
comedy show that is. rightly termed
musical and fun show. The COM
pany arrfyed in the city over the Sea-
board yesterday afternoon from the
east, and the scenery and effects are
now all in position for the perform
ance tonight.
From all indications il seems a
large house will greet this popular
company on their initial night, and
they are certainly deserving of it.
The Ocala Banner speaking of one
of the performances in that city re-
Gently. said in part:
The Wills Musical Comedy Com
pany, which is new to the theatre
goers of Ocala, appeared in the
ArmoryS last might to a we'll filled
house, and if the outburst of hearty
laughs andsapplause is to be taken
as any criterion as to the merits of
the performance. it must be said
without hesitation that they more
than made good. Every one of the
company has talent, so it would be
hard indeed to criticize, if such were
possible each individual member of
the company. We can say to those
who desire to go to a theatre for
amusement, that the Willis Company
is far above the average company
playing these small cities, and should
be greeted nightly with packed
houses"
Seats for tOnight's performance,
which are now on sale are in reach
of all, 25c, 35c and so cents.

The interesting point about the

COTTON EXPORTS HIGH RECORD

Cotton growers and cotton manu-
facturers have a right to feel some
citation over the figures which have
just been tabulated by the bureau of
statistics at Washington. The ex-
ports of raw cotton, cotton manufac-
lures and cotton by-products amount
ed to $264.0O0,O00 in 1896, and
reached s4S9, 100000 in 1906. In
every important item in our cotton
foreign trade there was a large gain
in the ten years. The cotton growers
as we'll as the cotton manufacturers
can see much. in those figures to
please them.
There was a decline, however, in
1906 as compared with 1905 in cot
ton manufactures, the total exporta-
ton of cotton fabrics of all sorts be-
ing $50, 200, 900 in 1905 and s43, 900
900 in 1906. The heaviest part of
this decline was in Asia This was
particularly severe in China and ia
pan. A large part of the shrinkage
in thise two countries was due 20 the
cessation of the Manchurian war in
1905. The war sent the American
sales of cotton goods up to high fig
ures in those two countries. But
when peace came their purchases fell
of, and for 1906 the drop was par
ticularly acute. Japan is not only
using less cotton fabrics than it did
during the destruction caused by the
war, but she is making for herself
many things which she was compell-
ed in war times to buy in the outside
world.
Yet the general tendency of our eX-
ports of cotton manufactures is like
ly to continue to be upward for many
years to come. The calendar year
1907 will show a gain over 1906. A
day will come when, owing to the
big increase in population, our mills
may not be able to do much more
than supply the home demand, but
that time is far distant. The output
of our factories in all sorts of tex
tile and metals is increasing at a
much higher ratio than the growth
in inhabitants. This imposes upon
us the necessity to steadily increase
our markets abroad. And, except in
the temporary rapid increase and
rapid decrease in Asia's purchases
from us, We have been fairly success
ful in getting new outlets for our sur
plus. For cotton growers as well as
for cotton manufacturers the outlook
is particularly bright.
