BANKS OF OGDEN AS STRONG
AS GIBRALTAR.

Friday this paper published six
bank statements, covering all the
banks OF the city, in which the figures
prove that there is no city in the west
the size of Ogden with banks SO strong
and prosperous.
The First National and the Pingree
show big increases, mention of which
was made yesterday To those in
creases should be added the resources
of the following:
Ogden State Bank. S1,717,599.9S.
Ogden Savings Ban, $1.1S4,S0O 81
Utah National Bank, $3.50, ,26S.52.
Commercial National, $3.50. $500.
The total resources of the six banks.
less than a year ago, were 81, ,33S ,9SS. 90
and on last Wednesday they were
1886, ,2SS,S5, OF an increase of 81
294.S6, which is over 80 per cent
The banks now hold a reserve found
double that required by law and are
SO fortified with cash as cause ont
siders to pronounce the local banks
among the strongest in the west.
IL the bank statements foreshadow
the city's growth. then Ogden is at the
beginning of great building and in
du6trial awakening.

a RAILROAD FROM OGDEN
To NORTHWEST.

surveyors are running lines north
from Promontory Point and persist
emf rumor has 1t that the Oregon
Short Line IS to build road into Ida
bo and Oregon which will be shorter
,,ne 10 the northwest than the present
route from Granger to Pocatello and
OH west.
This news, IL confirmed, would do
much 10 stimulate the growth OF Og-
den. as the building of a cut-on IRON
Promontory Point would be equivalent
N building the road out OF Ogden.
The surveying gangs have been in
the field for some time and one line
has bcen staked UP the west side OF
Promontory Point, sklrting the lake.
Those who have investigated the
movements of the surveyors have been
informed that pre1lrninary survey
shows that line OF low
gradients, With no mountain
ranges to cross, can be con-
structed which will reduce the distance
over the Hartman lines to Portland,
Seattle and the Northwest sixty miles
as compared with the Granger route,
The present Oregon Short Line,
starting at Granger, goesl through
desert region whore heavy grades are
encountered in crossing the mountains
to MONTPELIER. Idaho. With cutoff
out of Ogden 10 the northwest passen-
ger travel coming this way would
avoid the desert and slow mountain
climbing and make better time than
is now made on the Granger route.
II a railroad is built out of Promon-
tory Point, the Ogden -Lucin cutoff
will be double tracked from Ogden and
trains for the Northwest will be di-
verted at this point,
The Hartman officials apparently
see enough merit in this proposed cut
off to warrant the keeping Of large
surveying party in the field.
With the building Of such a cutoff.
Pocatello would be reduced in activity
as railroad terminal and shop cen
ter and Ogden would be correspond
ingly made more important
a road to the Northwest from t1e
edge Of Great Salt Lake would help
develop a vast empire of rich land
awaiting the coming of transportation
facilities and the line would help to
keep out road which already has
been surveyed by the Goulds.

THE BOY WHO KILLED
HIS BROTHER.
Nolning Examiner.)


That Is a distressing story which
comes from California of boy Of
twelve years old, who shot his brother
six years of age and buried the little
fellow alive In a pig pen.
Crimes of that kind have no pre-
ventive other than the prccepts
taught In the nursery. Murderouy
thoughts seldom manifest themselves
In very young children. and when
they do, the child's mind almost IN
yariably is found to be weak or early
misguided bv wrong teaching and ex-
ample.
There is nothing of the hardened
criminal in a child and the prompt
lngs of a murderous act can come
from only one of two sources-a fail.
ure to understand the consequences
coupled with impuIslveness. or a de-
ranged mentality caused by a de-
formity which has unbalanced the
mind.
The parents in the case of the liv.
ing and dead children are certainly
afflicted to the extreme Of human en-
durance.
