No admission will be charged for the

tire length At the conclusion Of the
shown the sign will he removed 70 the
Vermont building, where it VIII be
placed permanently over the Chamber
Of Commerce Offices.
fp speaking of the show yesterday
Orson Hewlett OF the Hewlett Brothers
company, said;
The Utah Products show should
be regarded by every citizen Of the
state as one Of the most enterpris-
ing and progressive things the state
has ever done. From present lndi'
cations ii will far outstrip Callfor-
MIA s show held in California for
three weeks last year. For the coast
show admission was charged and
on the opening night between 1000
and 5000 visitors readily paid
nominal admission price to witness
the exhibits.
1t is because manufacturers of
the state OF Utah are desirous OF
acouanting the citizens and others
of the vast resources and posslblh.
ties of the state that the show
which begins Thursday is being put
on with no admission charge. The
California show was not as good as
I EXPECT the Utah show will be,
and from standpoint of location
it was far from being in position
to appeal to visitors as our show
in the David Keith building will
be.

SO many wounded II is believed here
that General Villa Will remain In the

has revived the belief that, should the
Huerta forces drive him north. something
in the nature Of a northern republic
embracing the states bordering on the
United States, Will be established. The
plan OF separating the north from the
the south OF Mexico has long been con-
templated by some of tie rebel leaders
