PREACHERS, PAY.

A census report published only few
days ago shows that the average salary
paid to clergymen in .his country is
about $500 Two years ago the average
income OF Presbyterian preachers was
only 5000, so that the paw Of the clergy
seems to have increased at the rate oil
$50 per year since 1908, weekly raise
OF about 80 cents each year.
Wonder is often expressed that in
these days 80 few young men are going
into the ministrs. Union Theological
Seminary notes the falling away OF
students. SO do the Episcopal in
stitutions. The large universities have
very few prospective minister, on their
lists, the great proportion Of theological
students coming from the little colleges
in the west-colleges whose names are
rarely mentioned.
Almost any trade offers larger induce
ments, in the way OF earnings, thar
the ministry, and, besides, the clergy
man has to go through long years o
preparatory education. II there wer'
no other incentive than money for mel
to go into the ministry, very few woulC

BY FRED |. WATRous.

Wy THEN the government authorities,
w more than thirty years ago, told
the Ute tribe Of Indians to Sc
lect for itself tract Of land for a per
manent place of abode, the red man
might have chosen an almost unlimited
acreage in any OF several western states
where he had been wont to roam, follow
ing the dictates of his savage desires.
He selected a corner in the northwestern
part of Utah. geographically known as
the Untah basin
Here he dwelt in pIentitude, the native
products Of the country and the bounty
OF Uncle Sam supplying all his needs. No
doubt the tribe would have lived and
died on the Uintah Indian reservation
had not the curious and envious eyes of
oncoming civilization got occasional
glimpSes OF the Ute domain.
There they had one OF the fairest sec
tons lying between the two oceans. There
were thousands upon thousands of acres
growing luxuriant grasses; great water
courses full Of fish and carrying hun
dreds Of cubic feet Of water from the
snOw-capped mountains in the distant
ranges The country abOunded with game
and a delightful climate blessed this spot
of natures handiwork. No wonder the
Ute had chosen the Uintah basin for his
dwelling place.
Five years ago, on March 5. the Uintah
Indian reservation was thrown open for
settlement The Ute tribe has not as
much land today as in the years gone
by. but what he has been allotted was

estate Street Scene of Un-
preCedented Activity in
Dwelling Construction.

Real estate activity along State
street, between the city limits and
Murray. is noticeable. Several import
ant deals in real estate along this thor
oughfare have been successfully con-
summated the past winter. Tracts of
land which have been unusued have
been taken over and made into attract
i've residence additions, while many
dwellings have been built. Brick, frame
and concrete houses have been erected
along this street, and especially Is this
noticeable down around Thirteenth
South street.
More than seVenty-five houses have
been constructed on one tract of land.
The houses are not of the expensive
variety, but are good, substantial
homes. Between Twelfth South and
Thirteenth South streets a local real es-
tate firm has turned barren tracts OF
land into pleasant little plots. with
streets and sidewalks running through,
making the places most attractive. Sew
eral plots Of low ground have been
drained, sewerage systems Installed,
and the lots are now bringing good
prices.
This month a fifteen-minute service
will be permanently established on the
Murray car line, and still later, and
perhaps before the latter part Of June,
the line will be extended to Sandy and
Midvale, the work along the route Just
is progressing rapidly, with a large
force of men on the job. This change
is already showing it's effect on prop
erty values.
During the past winter number of
buildings have been erected at Four
teeenth South and State streets. This
particular street is the crossroads for
TsylOrsville, Mill Creek and Granite
On the corner just opposite the Granite
stake tabernacle is the new Eagle
block, completed. and a general store
established in one half and a meat
market in the other portion. About a
half a block north Ii the new building
of the Granite school board, while on
West Fourteenth South street is one Of
the handsomest church buildings ia

last year by the members in that vi
cinity.
The new high school building, erected
by the Granite board of education. is
a few feet farther on, and is also an
imposing structure School will be held
there the coming term. The new ele-
vator of the Intermountain Milling
company is now in operation, and on
a plot Of ground facing State street the
company has just finished the compile
ton of a building for the storing OF
-four and other provisions. State street
bids fair to be one of the most at
tractive thoroughfares in the county.
when all work of improvement has
been completed. With the installation
of the double track by the Utah Light.
and the macadamizing of the highway
by the p. J. Moran company, this par
ticular street is bound to come into it's
own before many more months pass by.

EIGHT APRIL PERMITS
Construction Amounting to $25, 800
Authorized by Inspector
A. B. Hirth.

For the first two days Of April Build
ing Inspector A. b. Hirth has issued
only eight permits, totaling $25,sOO but
from information in the hands of the
city official, it is believed that during
the next few weeks some large permits
will be issued. swelling the total for the
month to more than the record of $685.

four permits were issued yesterday, as

There We're only eight permits issued
for the two days, but il is believed that
with good weather for the next few
days there will be a large increase in
the number Of permits issued, and that
the month viii go steadily ahead of
April Of last year. It is almost certain
that the NewhCuse theatre will take out
a permit during the month, which will
be for $250.000, and other large build
ings will, it is believed, take out per-
mits during the month.
