The last trip the Salt Lake Com

add much to the present friendship
existing between Utah and Idaho bust |

The Salt Lake Boosters will have
nothing to sell but Salt Lake, and
they will come to our city well equip |
ped with souviners and novelties
with which to advertise Salt Lake and |
their individual business.

Of the excursion is to advertise Inter. |
