fourteen flaming electric arc lamps to

With the lamps placed at uniform

that older people are taking long trips
| This is made possible by the through
sleeper accommodations and the "per-
sonally conducted service. On all
through car lines there are frequent
excursions in charge OF a conductor
whose sole business is TO look after the
comforts and interests of his charges.
lu this way it has become possible for
an elderly person, or even q child, to
make trans-cOutinental trip with but
little, if any. Inconvenience.
The longest through ear route in the
United States today is that from Wash
ington, d. c., TO San Francisco, via u
southern route. Railroad men express
the belief that as soon as the terminal
conditions in Chicago are worked out
to satisfactory transfer basis there
will be through car service from eastern
points on all lines.
The lowest estimate of local passen-
ger men on the number OF tourists who
will be here in 1915, exposition year, is
between 100000 and 100000. This is
not the estimate OF the number that
will pass through Salt Lake. but the
number who will stop off one, two,
three or more days.
Salt Lake has a peculiar advantage
over most western cities. II IS one OF
the eight cities in the United States
where stopover is allowed on sleep
ing car tickets. A Pullman ticket is
good for a ten-day stopover in Salt
Lake. so that the tourist holding a
through sleeping car ticket can stop
over without invalidating his ticket.
Not even Denver or Colorado Springs
enjoy this privilege Recently this
stopovcr privilege has been given added
value by the addition of Salt Lake
slccpers to and from the east and
west.

During 1915; City Has
Many Advantages.

When former Mayor Bookwalter of
Indianapolis spoke at the banquet to
the Midland trail party recently he de-
clared that Utah was neglecting one Of
her greatest and richest assets-the
tourist He said there were thousands
of fasteners that wanted to come west
and thousands that would come west
If they knew what the west had TO of
fer IN scenic attractions and invest
ment possibilities. But he explained
that many OF them never heard Of the
wonders that the west had to offer and
that consequently they confined their
vacation trips TO eastern resorts that
had little or nothing to offer In com
parison to the grandeurs of the Rockies.
That there is a growing sentiment in
Salt Lake TO make the visit OF the
tourist to Salt Lake more attractive, to
furnish him with more information,
has indicated itself lately. The
Salt Lake City Passenger associa-
ton and the Salt Lake City Hotel
Mems association are concrete out
growths Of this movement. The pas
5enger association has already distri-
5uted 125,000 Salt Lake CITY folders,
giving descriptions of trips here and
nearby that, should the tourist decide
TO make them all. would keep him in
Utah n least ten days. On the other
hand be has the data before him in this
folder and he can select whatever of
the trips he wishes 20 make if his time
and possibly his finances. are limited
The hotel men have organized to give
out this information, too. Both are I'M
questionably valuable factors in the
city = welfare.

$4,000 Autoists Expected.

1t is estimated that between $4,000
and $4,000 auto tourists Will come from
the east TO the coast exposltions IN
1915. Those manufacturers promised
that II they got the cooperation OF the
counties and states along the route the
Lincoln Memorial highway, q sixteen.
foot concrete road from New York TO
San Francisco and passing through Salt
Lake. would be completed for that
year.
Mayor Bookwalter called attention to
the value of this traffic. The average
automobile tourist will spend more
money than the man who rides on a
train, He has more to spend, usually,
or he wouldn t be able to travel in an
automobile. He also has time to stop
along the way. &c, on when he pleases,
of interest. If the roads are there,
and there is little question but that the
west that lies along the Midland trail
has awakened TO the Importance of
good roads, the tourists will come by
the thousands. Among them Will be
the most solid citizenship of the land,
financially able to invest in and help
build up the vast resources of the
west.
Each of these tourists has an ad-
vertising value, too When he goes
home he talks about what he has seen.
He is bound to be the source of infor
nation by which some fellow.towns"
man will arrange a trip west. Will
the tourist tell his townsman tn come
to Salt Lakel That depends on what
the tourist has seen here. Will he
tell him he can see the temple. hear
the organ, swim in the lake and get
out of town in one day9 If he does
ii Will be because that is what the
tourist did If the tourist had stayed
several days and found many inter
esting trips he would have told his
friends about them. He can never learn
of these trips until Salt Lakers tell
him about them, This is point the
passenger association is attempting TO
put before the tourist. and they ask
the cooperation of every resident Of
Salt Lake and Utah,
The work has been started by the
Salt Lake City Passenger association
1t has been taken up by the hotel men.
But the passenger men and the hotel
men are not going to get all of the dol
lars these tourists spend. There is
hardly business, an industry or a
project that will not be
affected by the rapidly increasing tour
st traffic by rail and by road. Other
,itics of the west have reduced the ad"
rertising of attractions, often wholly
inferior to those Salt Lake and Utah
nave to offer, to a science, Who should
Salt Lake City be behind in the pro-
cession7

tourist traffic, in my mind said n.
II. Hunkins, chairman Of the excursions
committee OF the Commercial club and
travelling passenger agent of the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & ST. Paul railway, po-
sitions which brought him in contact
with hundreds of tourists annually" is
one we are overlooking We are inclined
10 regard the tourist as n passerby, one
who comes in here, spend 10 cents or
so or possibly more, and then leaves,
never TO return.
"As matter of fact nearly every
easterner of the desirable type who
comes west comes the first time on a
tourist or round trip ticket. Often he
is making the trip because he wants
TO move into the west and is looking
around for desirable place to locate
The place that impresses him the most
is the one he will probably decide upon.
For that reason ] believe that the tour
ist should be given attention and
shown what we have to offer II may
mean future citizen for Utah.
1t is conservatively estimated that
there were 100000 tourists who stopped
OF in Salt Lake during 1912 This es-
innate is made from the average Of
several prominent railroad passenger
agents, the bureau of information in
the temple grounds and from others
who are in position to note the tour
ist traffic.
