the lobby. 1t was deemed best then
to find new quarters. A room under
the Atlas block was secured, and bus
mess began to pick UP. The following
year was one of remarkable activity
and interest, and from this time on
there has been no need or desire for
a vacation. The record for the past 10
years is sufficient evidence of the In
terest taken in our mining invest
ments.
IMPORTANCE MANIFEST.
THE Importance of the exchange was
now clearly manifest and it was
deemed best that 1t should lie incor-
porated. Therefore in March the
Incorporation was effected with J. T..
jackson, president; William H. Tibbals,
ihlst Vice president; T. Egan, second
vice president; Herman Bamberger,
third vice president; E. H. Airis, d.
II. Peery, Jr., r. l.. Colhurn, NJ. S.
Penderga-st among the incorporators,
with Chas. e. Hudson as secretary and
Frank e. McGurrin as treasurer. The.
business OF the exchange was carried
forward under the Incorporation un-
til the beginning of the present year,
when the association was formed to
take over. the business of the exchange.
1t Is under this new association that
the organization has reached its present

ment of its property. It has brought
to the attention of the world the ex-
cellent opportunities offered by the
mining and smelling industry Of this
state. The reputation of the exchange
is, therefore, not limited to this local
ity. The members OF the exchange
collectively and severally have made
worthy standing in the community.
THE NEW BUILDINGS.
"Inasmuch az the association Is now
planning to build a home of it's own,
every member of the exchange feels the
greater responsibility resting upon
him, and every member is manifesting
greater interest In the work before
the exchange. Early in the new year
we shall undoubtedly see the beginning
OF a fine structure, which is TO be-
come the home Of the exchange. This

IN many respects the present year
has been one of the most remark
\ able in the history or tho exchange,
AS already stated, there have been
this year as chief In the history OF the
exchange. At present, however, we are
to deal more particularly with the
transactions for the present year.
The records of the local exchange
show many striking features which
have not before been so manifest Nine
teen hundred and eight opened with
the stock market in a very much de-
pressed condition, following the severe
panic of the close of last year. On
the 3rd of January the writer pub
lished this statement: There are many
things which point to very steady and
marked Improvement in our mining
stock Investments. We feel like recon-
mending, or even urging, our clients to
buy Utah stocks at the present timo
and hold them for at least 100 per cent
profit, which should come. IN many
cases, in less than six months" These
predictions have been verified and If
anyone Will examine the record of the
transactions of our exchange he will
discover that an investment OF 500 In
each of the Utah stocks that sold dur
ing tho first week of January last.
would have resulted within six months
in profit of nearly. IL not quite, 200
per cent on the investment and he.
would also discover the remarkable feu-
ture that no loss need have been sus-
tanned on any one of the investments.
MARKED IMPROVEMENT SHOWN.
The above facts show the marked an
steady improvement in the Salt Lake
mining stock market from the first OF
the year. There have been many fuc-
tuations but the business has been as
good as anyone could have expected
and the years record will show prob
ably much greater business than that
of last year. which was regarded as
most remarka BILE.
The following table will show the
business for the year to the middle of
Deseret evening news. [volume] (Great Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1867-1920, 1908-12-19

1t will be observed from the foregoing
table that the number of shares sold
during the first ten aud one-haIi
months OF the present year exceed the
sales OF the corresponding period of last
year by almost 1o,5oo.oOo. The value
OF the sales for the corresponding period
is a little more than s2Ooo,ooo above the
value OF the shares sold last year
While the market this year has been
very much more active, the average
prices for the stocks have been some-
what lower.
THO following table shows the sales
and values as published from the year
1897 down to tho present. The totals.
of course. for the year 1908 include only
the totals for ten and one-half months.
This year will probably show the great
est record in the history of the OK
change:

and reflect the standing OF the ex-
change, and do honor to him who has
so generously contributed the lot and
made it possible for the exchange to
have its own handsome building. With
in the next year we shall see the mem
berships Of this exchange worth prob
ably sveral thousand dollars.
No little credit is due to the press
OF this city for tho help rendered TO tho
exchange. Tho press has given to the
world the record of the business done
and brought to the notice of investors
the opportunities offered in our state
and through our exchange. We be-
speak continued confidence i'll our as

notwithstanding the period of depres-
sion following the panic of last fall the
year 1908 will be one long to be re-
menbered, on account OF the great
sales and also on account of tho con-
siderable advance In nearly ali of the
stocks listed on the exchange. From
all Indications we may look forward
to the year 1909 as promising one of the
best In the history of the mining stock

high standing. The memberships of
the exchange are worth more than ever
before, and the standing of the ex-
change is higher than 1t has ever been
before. 1t is the purpose OF the mem
bers to maintain the present high
standing.
IMPORTANCE OF EXCHANGE.
THE standing and Importance OF the
Salt Lake Stock & Mining exchange
are beyond question. The benefits
which have resulted in the general
business in Salt Lake City and to the
mining industry of the state are in a
great measure due to the influence of
the exchange. No organization can
transact business amounting to many
millions of dollars in a year without
resulting In great benefits to the com
nunity in which such an organization
exists and operates. The influence Of
the transactions of our exchange is
very plainly shown in the bank clear
ings of this city.
The exchange has given an oppor
tunity to many a person with small
means of increasing the income. 1t has
also given an opportunity to many a
prospecting company to place its Sc
'curities before the public in such a.
way as to secure the funds for develop
