Drake of the Seaside Water company
has assured officials of the chamber
of commerce that, so far as the Sea-
side company is concerned, the local
civic organization can erect permanent
headquarters on the park plat just east
of the Salt Lake depot.
The land in question was decided to
the city for park purposes and cannot

others he slips beneath doors of of
