the road from Denver to Holyoke, through

ton Yet Mr.. Allen and his commission
have no power TO establish a road In our

THE cities and every other city along

recommended by the Colorado state high
way commission passes through. must get
together and form a state Organization.
This matter is urgent and demands i'm
mediate attention. Each city along this
route will be allowed only two accredited
delegates. No favoritism will be shown.
We need officers who will push our state
road.
An organization of these towns can prop
erly advertise our route, publish an official
tourists guide and generally add to the
keeping Of our route before the various
automobile associations of the United
States.
Il will be grateful TO you for any sug-
gestions that will make this good road

Records of Land Office for March Set
New Mark-Fruit of the

OGDEN, Utah. May 4-(Special)-As a
consequence Of the exploitation in the east
OF the land possibilities in Utah. the United
states land office business for March broke
all records, according to the monthly report
made by e. D. r. Thompson, register.
The business eclipsed that OF any preceding
month by about forty-eight entries, or
1900 acres OF land, and by nearly 81, 900 in
fees and commissions. decidedly notice
able feature OF the records at the office
is the number of eastern people who have
taken up land.
Represented in the entry lists are people
from Indiana, Ohio. Nebraska, Kansas
Missouri. Iowa, Nevada and California.
which speaks volumes in favor of the
Commercial club publicity bureau and for
the land shows In which Utah participated
The state secured more than 100 newcom-
ers from the east during the month Be
sides this number. there were close to 100
more residents OF the state who filed on
land and intend to make improvements
Most of these entries are on land which f.
considered semi-arid and from which, I'M
doubtedly, big crops will be taken in due
time.
The report of the land office shows some
interesting figures which are deeadedlv
complimentary to the state. During the
month there was a total Of 1877 entries OF all
classes. OF these 1871 were homestead en-
tries and they took up total of $500 acres
OF land, which amounts to very close tn
ninety square miles. OF the entries a GOOD
deal over one-half were eastern people

OF GRAND COUNCIL
EXPLANATION REGARDING THE
ELEGANT SOUVENIR BOOK TO
BE PUT OUT BY FARGO COUNCIL
FOR GRAND COUNCIL MEETING
NEXT JUNE.

The executive committee in charge
Of the publishing of the souvenir book
which Is to be gotten out by the Fargo
council has written letter to every
member of the council explaining in
detail what the book will be like. The
scheme which has been hit upon is
very unique and win itself appeal to
the average person.
A portion of the letter and explana-
ton and solicitation is as follows:
This book is not to be an advertis-
ing pamphlet, such as you have been
accustomed to seeing on occasions of
this kind, but is to be picture book
of the towns and cities Of our state,
high class in workmanship and design,
and one that we feel sure you will be
proud of. Our solicitors are meeting
with very good success in the work Of
getting the subscriptions and pictures
Of the towns and we feel sure that
with hard, conscientious work on our
part and the backing and support Of
the members Of our council. we shall
make. the book grand success.
Our plan Is to sell to the various
towns one or more pages of the book,
which page will cntain birdseye view
Of the town or it's principal street, CIV
ing a short writeup Of the town, to
the order Of our council. and agree to
deliver one or more copies (not ex-
ceeding five) of the books to be placed
in the hotels, Libraries or other public
places. The money is to be sent to us
by the bank on receipt of the books.
Now, brother, your committee have
a big Job on their hands, but we need
the money and are willing to work, but
we want your help as follows:
Whether you have signified your APP
prevail heretofore or not send In your
photo, to reach us not later than
March Is, 1911. We must decide at
that time whether we will include this
feature in the book and will not adopt
it unless we have the photo and money
of a majority of the members. Do it
now. Yours respectfully,
Executive Committee,

ferences held with markers in the east,
as we'll as prominent financiers
throughout the country, the plan has
been considered very plausible from all
standpoints.
Special attention was called to the
good effect an institution Of this kind
would have on the young men just
entering the business OF travelling
statesmen. 1t was suggested that in
connection with the regular banking
business, which should be run along
the latest and most improved lines fol-
lowed by the most successful institu-
tions in the country, a special realty
and trust department should be Great
ed. In this way the young men. as
well as the old, who saved a certain
amount of their salaries, could invest
their savings in homesteads
The speaker also reminded the trav
cling men present of the great need
among followers of this profession for
a financial institution of this character.
He called attention to the fact, that in
the east men were paid high salaries
to travel about the country and create
an interest in banking institutions by
association with prominent merchants
throughout the various sections of the
country. He then emphasized the fact
that the active commercial travellers
could also speak a word for their bank
and trust company in travelling their
regular territory. and in this way at
tract the attention and interest of the
most prominent merchants throughout
the south to their bank.
The Journal further states that the
matter was taken hold of at once and
nominating committee appointed to
consider a directorate and report at a
future meeting when it is thought
the matter will be pushed through to-
successful issue.

commercial travellers may retain mem
