1884.


Edited and Compiled by ROBERT W. SLOAN.


CONTAINING


A HISTORY OF UTAH, HER RESOURCES, ATTRACTIONS. STATISTICS, ETC .. WITH BUSINESS DIRECTORY OF THE TERRITORY AND GENERAL DIRECTORIES OF THE FOUR PRINCIPAL CITIES.


PRINTED FOR SLOAN & DUNBAR, BY THE HERALD PRINTING AND PUBLISHING COMPANY, Salt Lake City, Utah.


1884.


25353


To the business men of Utah ; to those interested in the development of her resources and the establishment of a foundation that will insure her permanent prosperity, and to all her inhabitants, this work is respectfully dedicated by the publishers,


R. W. SLOAN, D. C. DUNBAR.


PREFACE.


It is with mingled fear and confidence that this work is sent forth-fear that it may not meet the standard of excellence which a commonwealth of such vast and varied resource merits; confidence that it will, nevertheless, give a broader view of the Territory and its capacity for development; and convince those who have now made permanent homes here, or who may hereafter determine to do so, that there awaits for Utah a glorious and imper- ishable future. This work was begun by the author and the publishers with the hope that the undertaking would be profitable; but not with this idea alone. The disposition manifested by many to belittle the capacity of Utah, and the indifference shown by many within her borders, and especially among her own offspring, those of young blood, active and restless temper- ament, to ignore the inducements Utah offers all willing to make an honest effort to secure material prosperity, largely influenced the determination to publish such a work as this, and had a greater influence on its character while in course of preparation than will, in all probability, ever be known. The idea has ever been uppermost that no more favored country, the same area considered, is to be found on the globe; that true prosperity is not to be found in the circulating wealth of a nation, but in the abundance of resource that will justify the establishment and operation of industries suffi- cient to keep its population employed, and upon the industry and the thrift of that population, and that, while the development of Utah may have been retarded by the abuse of moneyed power, whether in railroads or in other forms, it is impossible that injury of this kind can be permanent. The abiding and unshaken faith in the future of Utah, felt at the commencement of this work, has grown to a certain and immovable conviction. With these views it was impossible that interest should not be felt in showing to all, with all truth and candor, and with as much ability as those interested possessed, the basis first for the faith and later for the conviction which a greater acquaintance with the subject brought; and, vain thoughi it may seem, we cannot avoid the expression of an opinion that any right-minded, level-headed young man, who will casually glance at the wealth of resource shown even briefly and crudely in this volume, must admit that no place can offer greater inducements to him if he desires permanently to live in any country, if he is but willing that his position in life shall be that which honest effort and perseverance merit as a reward. Nor does the showing appeal with less force to men who have already won success in life's battle. It is impossible that any man of means, patriotic and public-spirited at heart, who calmly


and intelligently investigates the resources of this Territory, can fail to reach the conclusion that a world of opportunity is here and yet awaits the investment of means that will certainly bring profit; that industries and man- ufactures are yet to be founded that will win for Utah a permanent prosperity that monopolies and adventurous speculators will find immovable, a rock upon which they must split should they sail against it. It is because of such thoughts, because Utah can never enjoy anything like certain prosperity until the utilization of her manifold resources places her in a position of inde- pendence, that such a work as this has become necessary, and of equal value to the laborer, the mechanic and the capitalist. All alike-though views as to the methods best calculated to bring about general prosperity are at variance-are equally interested in the future of Utah.


Social questions have been avoided. Material and historical Utah have only been treated. The conviction is that, all circumstances considered, the progress made by Utah since 1847, is a marvel, an eternal monument that will ever point to the unyielding industry of its people and tell a story full of the efficacy of labor and the certain reward of honest toil that can be pon- dered over with benefit to future as well as present generations.


It is not held the work is without errors. Such a claim would be pre- posterous. It is simply stated that in comparison with the endless subjects discussed and given, there are practically no errors; and that there are no errors whatever in spirit, no misrepresentations, and nothing as to material facts that existing intelligence and the knowledge now possessed could wish to be changed. The most notable errors discovered so far are corrected in the Errata. There will no doubt be mistakes as to names, and as to dates, and as to other things. It is impossible that such could be avoided, as many whose names are published have passed away, and those who furnished the information themselves were imperfectly informed and gave only the best knowledge at their command. If such a work is undertaken by another in later years, the basis here given will materially assist in securing better and more accurate information as regards the names of those associated with past events and the dates on which these events transpired.


I am under lasting obligation to President Wilford Woodruff, Mr. John Jaques, Col. O. J. Hollister, Professor J. E. Clayton and Dr. Wm. Brede- meyer and others-presidents of stakes and bishops-throughout the whole Territory, without whose valuable and timely assistance many subjects must have been omitted or imperfectly given. With whatever success this work may meet, much of that success will be due to their kindly and valuable assistance.

HIS DELIGHTFUL RESORT COMPRISES 600 ACRES, ON which are innumerable Hot Springs, which cover about 400 acres. The place is watered by these springs and the farm thoroughly irrigated. The springs are thus named because of the remarkable similarity between them and the famous waters of Saratoga. The place was formally opened on the 24th of July, in the presence of fully 1,000 people, and since then it has been and is now


Inferior to No Place in the est as a leasure Resort.


The Springs are not over 100 yards from that beautiful sheet of water, Utah Lake, where there is excellent accommodation for bathers, with all incidental accommodations -- 100 bath houses, bathing suits. Plunge baths in the water from the Springs are also provided; row and sail boats are fur- nished, and a steamer will ply the lake next season, together with a railroad track connecting with the Utah Central will be laid down. It is also situ- ated near the mouth of the Jordan, and thus affords delightful hunting and fishing both in the lake and the Jordan River. There is a race track, base- ball grounds, shooting galleries, and everything to make life pleasant and agreeable. The Tintic mines are in the vicinity, while the site of the SARATOGA OF UTAH has long been noted as strikingly picturesque.


It is open to all. Health and happiness at trifling expense await all who visit us.
