without consulting anyone outside the

Such Action Would Be of Great
Help to Salt Lake
City.

Conferences are being held of the
passenger associations west Of Chicago
with view to arranging for ten,day
stopoyer privileges at Denver, Colorado
Springs and Pueblo, Salt Lake City and
Ogden, on all tickets reading through
those points. In case this is put
through, which seems very probable ac-
cording TO the best information OBJ
tainable in this city, all of the lines

is designed to grant the ten.day stop
over privileges on both first and second
class tickets, as well as all roundtrip
tickets.
If the stopoyer privileges are al
lowed, 1t will mean big thing to Salt
Lake, in that it will give tourists en-
route to the coast and the northwest an
ample opportunity to visit the places
of interest in this city. It will prove
of much benefit to travelling men and

as the time approaches when the new
Western Pacific railroad will be com
pleted and opened up for traffic. the
interest in the location of the general
offices of the road is growing more in
tense. Ii is generally recognized that
the fight for the general offices lies
between two cities-Salt Lake City. the
metropolis Of the intermountain re-
gion, and San Francisco 1t has been
suggested that the general offices might
be located at Denver, but this seems

Why remarked a prominent rail

''the Commercial club ought to lose no

One unacqualnted with the affairs Of
the management of one of the large
railroads can little realize what big
thing the general offices means to a
city, For instance, in case the treas
urer's office of the Western Pacific
is established, it would mean that the
money taken in at the various agen.
cies throughout the entire country
would be forwarded to this city, and,
of course. handled by local banks This

large number of men. and the estab.

would bring 500 employees along with
