Goodwin House,lehi, Utah County, UT Narrative Description The Samuel and Olena Goodwin house lies on a corner lot in one of the oldest developed sections of Lehi. It is surrounded by homes of similar age, though the Goodwin house is one of the largest houses in the area. Built in 1896, the house was originally a one-:story, cross-wing, Victorian Eclectic style house, as evidenced by a 1898 Sanborn Map of Lehi. It stood west of a house built by Samuel Goodwin's grandfather. Original windows topped with leaded glass transoms remain in the oldest portion of the house. By 1907 the house was expanded with a large addition to the west. Part of this addition was a prominent one-story circular turret on the southwest corner of the house. The roof of the house was replaced by a hipped roof with flared, overhanging eaves. One-over-one double-hung windows probably replaced the original windows on the house at the time of the addition. The 1922 Sanborn Map of Lehi shows that the Goodwin house had by then achieved its present form, with a rear kitchen ell added to the north side of the house. A large porch, added between 1907 and 1922, stretches across the front and north sides of the house.1 The porch is supported by paired Tuscan-style columns, one of many Classical details the Goodwins added to the house and are commonly used in the Victorian Eclectic style. Another is the circular vent in the pedimented gablet above the main entrance to the house, on the south facade. The gablet projects through the roof, as do several other dormer windows. Two brick chimneys crown the ridges of the asphalt-shingled roof. A small brick kitchen addition on the north side of the house was constructed in the 1920s. A shed roofed porch projects from the addition's east side. The house remains in the hands of its second owners, who bought it from the Goodwin family in 1946. They have maintained the exterior in its historic form. The interior of the house, with its six bedrooms, has also been similarly maintained. Historic outbuildings on the property no longer remain, however. The home of Goodwin's grandfather, located east of the house, was demolished by 1922. A wood frame stable found northeast of the house and built between 1898 and 1907 was demolished at some time after the historic period. In the place of these buildings are mature gardens.

Goodwin House, Lehi, Utah County, UT Narrative Statement of Significance The Samuel I. and Olena J. Goodwin House, built in 1896, is significant for its association with the "Coming of the Railroad and Economic Expansion, 1871.,1899" and "Modernization, Steady Growth, and the War Years, 1900-1940s" categories of the Historic and Architectural Resources of Lehi, Utah, Multiple Property Submission. It is a historically significant example of the houses associated with the growing prosperity of Lehi in the late 19th and early 20th century. The arrival of the railroad in Lehi in 1872 gave access to wider markets for Lehi's goods and produce, leading, in part, to a period of explosive growth in Lehi around the turn of the twentieth century. Merchants such as Samuel Goodwin, the builder of this house, benefitted from this expansion and could build larger, more stylish houses. In contrast to Lehi:s early homes, which were simple, vernacular buildings most often constructed of locally produced materials, the Goodwin house was constructed of fired brick, and was expanded in c.1906 after becoming involved with the lucrative cooperative movement in Lehi. The 1890s were an expansive decade in Lehi. The leading development of the decade, and perhaps the most important industry in Lehi's history, was the Utah Sugar Company Factory, the first of several such structures built by the company throughout Utah and Idaho. Started in 1890 at Mulliner's Pond, the factory employed many local people and continued to do so until its close in 1924. 2 Due to the factory, together with the statewide boom of mining, transportation and agricultural industries, Lehi experienced great prosperity in the 1890s. The construction of many fine commercial, industrial, governmental, educational, religious and residential buildings during the Victorian Era attests to its healthy urban nature. In this phase of Lehi's development, larger, more elaborate houses were more prevalent. These buildings reflect the growing prosperity and sophistication that links to outside communities brought to Utah towns such as Lehi. Not only did Lehi's citizens have the financial means to build larger, more stylish homes, they were more aware of the popular architectural styles through contact with the rest of the nation. The Samuel and Olena Goodwin House is a Significant example of this trend. The Goodwin house was built in 1896 on a lot once part of Samuel Goodwin's grandfather's (Ozias Goodwin) pioneer property. Several additions and alterations were made to the house until it reached its present form in the early 1920s. Samuel I. Goodwin was a native of Lehi, born in 1869 to Edwin A. and Anna Harwood Goodwin.3 His wife, Olena J. Anderson, was born in Salt Lake City in 1872 to 2\Jan Wagoner, 238-247. 3Biographical infonnation for Samuel and Olena Goodwin is taken from Thomas F. Kirkham,ed., Lehi Centennial History 18501950 (including reprint of Hamilton Gardner's History of Lehi [Salt Lake City: Deseret News, 1913])(Lehi, Utah: Lehi Free Press Publishing Co., 1950),758-759.

Goodwin House, Lehi , Utah County, UT Andrew R. and Mariane Pederson Anderson. Samuel and Olena were married in 1891 in Manti. In 1903, Samuel Goodwin became manager and superintendent of the Lehi People's Co-operative Mercantile Institution; he remained in the position for twenty-three years . The cooperative mercantile system, an integral part of the economic history of Utah, was first put into practice in Lehi. Israel Evans, son of Lehi Bishop David Evans, visited a co-operative mercantile in England while on a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS or Mormon church) from 1853-57. Upon his return, he advocated for such a mercantile in Lehi. The outgrowth of this, the Lehi Union Exchange opened in 1868. 4 Within the larger framework of the LDS church, Lorenzo Snow, then a member of the church's governing body, the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, was advocating a similar cooperative system. The co-op system was significantly expanded during 1868. In that year, Zion's Cooperative Mercantile Institution (Z.C.M.I.) was organized at Salt Lake City. Lehi's Union Exchange become a branch of the Z.C.M.1. organization. The early success of Lehi's cooperative system was destined to be short-lived, however. As happened in other Utah communities, the cooperative ideal fell victim to increasing competition from private concerns. Completion of the transcontinental railroad in 1869 was an event that undoubtedly contributed to the demise of the cooperative system (which had been formally launched less than one year earlier). It also exerted strong influences upon the subsequent course of Lehi's history. The ' coast-to-coast transportation system ended Utah's geographic isolation. It made goods from the outside more readily available, created new markets for Utah-produced commodities, stimulated commerce and the development of new industries, and brought in more settlers and more outside influences. In 1871, the Lehi People's Cooperative Mercantile Institution (People's Co-op) was organized to take advantage of the railroad's arrival in Lehi, and to compete with the established Lehi Union Exchange. 5 Located on North State Street near the new railroad depot, the People's Co-op flourished, and indeed soon drove the Union Exchange out of business in 1880. By the time of Samuel Goodwin's arrival as manager of the Co-op in 1903, the company was Lehi's largest merchant. Two branches, the "uptown" and the "downtown" locations, were supplemented by clothing, furniture, farming implements, livery, lumber, coal, shoes and harness departments. In 1904 the People's Co-op sold their downtown branch and concentrated their resources into their uptown location, at 151 East State Street. In 1912, the Co-op bought the adjacent Union Hotel, which the company remodeled into a movie theater in 1914. -Van Wagoner, 123-124. 5Van Wagoner, 127.

Samuel I. and Olena J. Goodwin House, Lehi, Utah County, UT The Goodwin family was among those who directly benefitted from the prosperity in Lehi during this period. During Goodwin's tenure as manager, the People's Co-op thrived. Numerous additions and alterations made to his house up until the early 1920s reflect Goodwin's success. A major addition to the house c.1906, reflects Goodwin's prosperity in his co-op job. The average size cross-wing was expanded into a larger and more elaborate structure with a hip roof and turret. The new configuration was more fitting to his position within the community. Another piece of evidence of his (and Olena's) increasing prominence in the community was their civic and religious positions. Samuel was the Bishop of the LOS Lehi Second Ward from 1917 until 1937. From 1938, he served as High Councilor in the Lehi Stake. He also was a member of the Lehi City Council (1906-1909), president of the Alpine School Board, and vice:-president of the State Bank of Lehi. Olena was a member of the LOS Alpine Stake Relief Society Board from 1917-1928. When the Lehi Stake was organized in 1928, Olena became the first counselor of the Lehi Stake Relief Society. She served in this position until 1938. This group of Relief Society leaders remained close after their terms in office, and held a semiannual social which Olena attended regularly up until her death. In 1926, Samuel Goodwin left the People's Co-op to start his own mercantile, Goodwin's Golden Rule. The store was in the west half of the former downtown location of the People's Co-op and was associated (like all Golden Rule stores) with the J.C. Penney Company. Goodwin ran the store until his retirement in 1946. At that time the Goodwins moved to Inglewood, California. Olena Goodwin died in California in 1950; Samuel Goodwin died in 1963. The family sold the house to LeRoy and Edna Gammon. Mrs. Gammon continues to reside in the house. .x See continuation sheet NPS Fonn 1()-9()(}a OMB No. 1002..ao18 U1aI1 WordPerlect 5.1 Format (Revtsed Feb. 1993) United States Department of the Interior National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Continuation Sheet Section No. JL Page...5..

Samuel I. and Olena J . Goodwin House, Lehi, Utah County, UT Narrative Description The Samuel and Olena Goodwin house lies on a corner lot in one of the oldest developed sections of Lehi. It is surrounded by homes of similar age, though the Goodwin house is one of the largest houses in the area. Built in 1896, the house was originally a one-story, cross-wing, Victorian Eclectic style house, as evidenced by a 1898 Sanborn Map of Lehi. It stood west of a house built by Samuel Goodwin's grandfather. Original windows topped with leaded glass transoms remain in the oldest portion of the house. By 1907 the house was expanded with a large addition to the west. Part of this addition was a prominent one-story circular turret on the southwest corner of the house. The roof of the house was replaced by a hipped roof with flared, overhanging eaves. One-over-one double-hung windows probably replaced the original windows on the house at the time of the addition. The 1922 Sanborn Map of Lehi shows that the Goodwin house had by then achieved its present form, with a rear kitchen ell added to the north side of the house. A large porch, added between 1907 and 1922, stretches across the front and north sides of the house. 1 The porch is supported by paired Tuscan-style columns, one of many Classical details the Goodwins added to the house and are commonly used in the Victorian Eclectic style. Another is the circular vent in the pedimented gablet above the main entrance to the house, on the south facade. The gablet projects through the roof, as do several other dormer windows. Two brick chimneys crown the ridges of the asphalt-shingled roof. A small brick kitchen addition on the north side of the house was constructed in the 1920s. A shed roofed porch projects from the addition's east side. The house remains in the hands of its second owners, who bought it from the Goodwin family in 1946. They have maintained the exterior in its historic form. The interior of the house, with its six bedrooms, has also been similarly maintained. Historic outbuildings on the property no longer remain, however. The home of Goodwin's grandfather, located east of the house, was demolished by 1922. A wood frame stable found northeast of the house and built between 1898 and 1907 was demolished at some time after the historic period. In the place of these buildings are mature gardens.

Goodwin House. Lehi. Utah County, UT Narrative Statement of Significance The Samuel I. and Olena J. Goodwin House, built in 1896, is significant for its association with the "Coming of the Railroad and Economic Expansion, 1871-1899" and "Modernization, Steady Growth, and the War Years, 1900-1940s" categories of the Historic and Architectural Resources of Lehi, Utah, Multiple Property Submission. It is a historically significant example of the houses associated with the growing prosperity of Lehi in the late 19th and early 20th century. The arrival of the railroad in Lehi in 1872 gave access to wider markets for Lehi's goods and produce, leading, in part, to a period of explosive growth in Lehi around the turn of the twentieth century. Merchants such as Samuel Goodwin, the builder of this house, benefitted from this expansion and could build larger, more stylish houses. In contrast to Lehi's early homes, which were simple, vernacular buildings most often constructed of locally produced materials, the Goodwin house was constructed of fired brick, and was expanded in c.1906 after becoming involved with the lucrative cooperative movement in Lehi. The 1890s were an expansive decade in Lehi. The leading development of the decade, and perhaps the most important industry in Lehi's history, was the Utah Sugar Company Factory, the first of several such structures built by the company throughout Utah and Idaho. Started in 1890 at Mulliners Pond; the factory employed many local people and continued to do so until its close in 1924.2 Due to the factory, together with the statewide boom of mining, transportation and agricultural industries, Lehi experienced great prosperity in the 1890s. The construction of many fine commercial, industrial, governmental, educational, religious and residential buildings during the Victorian Era attests to its healthy urban nature. In this phase of Lehi's development, larger, more elaborate houses were more prevalent. These buildings reflect the growing prosperity and sophistication that links to outside communities brought to Utah towns such as Lehi. Not only did Lehi's citizens have the financial means to build larger, more stylish homes, they were more aware of the popular architectural styles through contact with the rest of the nation. The Samuel and Olena Goodwin House is a significant example of this trend. The Goodwin house was built in 1896 on a lot once part of Samuel Goodwin's grandfather's (Ozias Goodwin) pioneer property. Several additions and alterations were made to the house until it reached its present form in the early 1920s. Samuel I. Goodwin was a native of Lehi, born in 1869 to Edwin A. and Anna Harwood Goodwin.3 His wife, Olena J. Anderson, was born in Salt Lake City in 1872 to 2\Jan Wagoner. 238-247. 3Biographical infonnation for Samuel and Olena Goodwin is taken from Thomas F.

Goodwin House, Lehi, Utah County, UT Andrew R. and Mariane Pederson Anderson . Samuel and Olena were married in 1891 in Manti. In 1903, Samuel Goodwin became manager and superintendent of the Lehi People's Co-operative Mercantile Institution; he remained in the position for twenty-three years. The cooperative mercantile system, an integral part of the economic history of Utah, was first put into practice in Lehi. Israel Evans, son of Lehi Bishop David Evans, visited a co-operative mercantile in England while on a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LOS or Mormon church) from 1853-57. Upon his return, he advocated for such a mercantile in Lehi. The outgrowth of this, the Lehi Union Exchange opened in 1868. 4 Within the larger framework of the LOS church, Lorenzo Snow, then a member of the church's governing body, the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, was advocating a similar cooperative system. The co-op system was significantly expanded during 1868. In that year, Zion's Cooperative Mercantile Institution (Z.C.M.I.) was organized at Salt Lake City. Lehi's Union Exchange become a branch of the Z.C.M.1. organization. The early success of Lehi's cooperative system was destined to be short-lived, however. As happened in other Utah communities, the cooperative ideal fell victim to increasing competition from private concerns. Completion of the transcontinental railroad in 1869 was an event that undoubtedly contributed to the demise of the cooperative system (which had been formally launched less than one year earlier). It also exerted strong influences upon the subsequent course of Lehi's history. The · coast-to-coast transportation system ended Utah's geographic isolation. It made goods from the outside more readily available, created new markets for Utah-produced commodities, stimulated commerce and the development of new industries, and brought in more settlers and more outside influences. In 1871, the Lehi People's Cooperative Mercantile Institution (People's Co-op) was organized to take advantage of the railroad's arrival in Lehi, and to compete with the established Lehi Union Exchange. 5 Located on North State Street near the new railroad depot, the People's Co-op flourished , and indeed soon drove the Union Exchange out of business in 1880. By the time of Samuel Goodwin's arrival as manager of the Co-op in 1903, the company was Lehi's largest merchant. Two branches, the "uptown" and the "downtown" locations, were supplemented by clothing, furniture, farming implements, livery, lumber, coal, shoes and harness departments. In 1904 the People's Co-op sold their downtown branch and concentrated their resources into their uptown location, at 151 East State Street. In 1912, the Co-op bought the adjacent Union Hotel, which the company remodeled into a movie theater in 1914. 'Van Wagoner, 123-124. 5Van Wagoner, 127. X See continuation sheet NPS Form 10-900-.

Page A.. Samuel!. and Olena J . Goodwin House, Lehi, Utah County, UT The Goodwin family was among those who directly benefitted from the prosperity in Lehi during this period. During Goodwin's tenure as manager, the People's Co-op thrived. Numerous additions and alterations made to his house up until the early 1920s reflect Goodwin's success. A major addition to the house c.1906, reflects Goodwin's prosperity in his co-op job. The average size cross-wing was expanded into a larger and more elaborate structure with a hip roof and turret. The new configuration was more fitting to his position within the community. Another piece of evidence of his (and Olena's) increasing prominence in the community was their civic and religious positions. Samuel was the Bishop of the LOS Lehi Second Ward from 1917 until 1937. From 1938, he served as High Councilor in the Lehi Stake. He also was a member of the Lehi City Council (1906-1909), president of the Alpine School Board, and vice-president of the State Bank of Lehi. Olena was a member of the LOS Alpine Stake Relief Society Board from 1917-1928. When the Lehi Stake was organized in 1928, Olena became the first counselor of the Lehi Stake Relief Society. She served in this position until 1938. This group of Relief Society leaders remained close after their terms in office, and held a semiannual social which Olena attended regularly up until her death. In 1926, Samuel Goodwin left the People's Co-op to start his own mercantile, Goodwin's Golden Rule. The store was in the west half of the former downtown location of the People's Co-op and was associated (like all Golden Rule stores) with the J.C. Penney Company. Goodwin ran the store until his retirement in 1946. At that time the Goodwins moved to Inglewood, California. Olena Goodwin died in California in 1950; Samuel Goodwin died in 1963. The family sold the house to LeRoy and Edna Gammon. Mrs. Gammon continues to reside in the house.

The cooperative mercantile system, an integral part of the economic history of Utah, was first put into practice in Lehi. Israel Evans, son of Lehi Bishop David Evans, visited a co-operative mercantile in England while on a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LOS or Mormon church) from 1853-57. Upon his return, he advocated for such a mercantile in Lehi. The outgrowth of this, the Lehi Union Exchange opened in .1868. 4 Within the larger framework of the LOS church, Lorenzo Snow, then a member of the church's governing body, the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, was advocating a similar cooperative system. The co-op system was significantly expanded during 1868. In that year, Zion's Cooperative Mercantile Institution (Z.C.M.I.) was organized at Salt Lake City. Lehi's Union Exchange become a branch of the Z.C.M.1. organization. The early success of Lehi's cooperative system was destined to be short-lived, however. As happened in other Utah communities, the cooperative ideal fell victim to increasing competition from private concerns. Completion of the transcontinental railroad in 1869 was an event that undoubtedly contributed to the demise of the cooperative system (which had been formally launched less than one year earlier). It also exerted strong influences upon the subsequent course of Lehi's history. The coast-to-coast transportation system ended Utah's geographic isolation. It made goods from the outside more readily available, created new markets for Utah-produced commodities, stimulated commerce and the development of new industries, and brought in more settlers and more outside influences. In 1871, the Lehi People's Cooperative Mercantile Institution (People's Co-op) was organized to take advantage of the railroad's arrival in Lehi, and to compete with the established Lehi Union Exchange. 5 Located on North State Street near the new railroad depot, the People's Co-op flourished , and indeed soon drove the Union Exchange out of business in 1880. By the time of Samuel Goodwin's arrival as manager of the Co-op in 1903, the company was Lehi's largest merchant. Two branches, the "uptown" and the "downtown" locations, were supplemented by clothing, furniture, farming implements, livery, lumber, coal, shoes and harness departments. In 1904 the People's Co-op sold their downtown branch and concentrated their resources into their uptown location, at 151 East State Street. In 1912, the Co-op bought the adjacent Union Hotel, which the company remodeled into a movie theater in 1914. 'Van Wagoner, 123-124. SVan Wagoner, 127. X See continuation sheet OMS NPS Form 1~~.

Goodwin House, Lehi, Utah County, UT The Goodwin family was among those who directly benefitted from the prosperity in Lehi during this period. During Goodwin's tenure as manager, the People's Co-op thrived. Numerous additions and alterations made to his house up until the early 1920s reflect Goodwin's success. A major addition to the house c.1906, reflects Goodwin's prosperity in his co-op job. The average size cross-wing was expanded into a larger and more elaborate structure with a hip roof and turret. The new configuration was more fitting to his position within the community. Another piece of evidence of his (and Olena's) increasing prominence in the community was their civic and religious positions. Samuel was the Bishop of the LDS Lehi Second Ward from 1917 until 1937. From 1938, he served as High Councilor in the Lehi Stake. He also was a member of the Lehi City Council (1906-1909), president of the Alpine School Board, and vice~president of the State Bank of Lehi. Olena was a member of the LDS Alpine Stake Relief Society Board from 1917-1928. When the Lehi Stake was organized in 1928, Olena became the first counselor of the Lehi Stake Relief Society. She served in this position until 1938. This group of Relief Society leaders remained close after their terms in office, and held a semiannual social which Olena attended regularly up until her death. In 1926, Samuel Goodwin left the People's Co-op to start his own mercantile, Goodwin's Golden Rule. The store was in the west half of the former downtown location of the People's Co-op and was associated (like all Golden Rule stores) with the J.C. Penney Company. Goodwin ran the store until his retirement in 1946. At that time the Goodwins moved to Inglewood, California. Olena Goodwin died in California in 1950; Samuel Goodwin died in 1963. The family sold the house to LeRoy and Edna Gammon. Mrs. Gammon continues to reside in the house.

Van Wagoner Foreword by Max Evans LEHI CITY CORPORATION, 1990 --, MAKING OF A CITY raphy, and the Lehi Post. Office - was completed in early 1902. This same year J. A. Robinson opened Corner Grocery in the Yearance Building at 102 West Main, E. A. Beers started a millinery shop, Frank Fagan opened a restaurant, and the People's Co-op constructed their spacious building at 151 East State. Gus Slade opened his new Senate Saloon in the Ball Building, 155 West Main, on 3 December 1903. Two weeks later J. E. Cotter purchased the Corner GrO'cery at 102 West Main. In June 1904 a group of Lehi investors purchased the Provo Knitting Mill, moved the plant to Lehi, and established the Standard Knitting Factory Company in the Kirkham & Sons Building on Sixth North at First East. One month later the Lehi Cash Store opened at 86 West Main, and the People's Co-op sold their entire downtown branch to William Racker, who established Racker Mercantile. Roberts and Brems opened a meat market at 217 East State in 1905. Their business quickly failed and was assummed by Peter Larsen. During 1906 druggist T. J. Wadsworth opened his store at 101 West Main, the Bank of Lehi was established in the Ross Building, and Hammer Brother's Livery expanded their business by constructing a new thirtysix-by-fifty-six-foot stable. To promote Lehi interests a group of local men organized the Lehi Commercial Club on 22 May 1905. Charter members of this association were George Austin, Parley Austin, Joseph Broadbent, J. E. Cotter, John F. Cutler, A. J. Evans, Morgan Evans, W. S. Evans, Andrew Fjeld, Charles Friel, James Fyffe, James H. Gardner, S. I. Goodwin, Mr. Green, George Hammer, Robert Howard, M. W. Ingalls, Edward Karren, Homer Kendall, James M. Kirkham, William Knight, Henry Lewis, J. H. Manderfield, A. C. Pearson, Alex Piper, W. E. Racker, John Roberts, Nate Rockhill, S. W. Ross, O. A. Slade, John Y. Smith, J. E. Standring, Dr. Robert Steele, Dr. W. M. Stookey, S. J. Taylor, T. J. Wadsworth, Dr. Westphal, J. H. Wootton, George Webb, Thomas Webb, and S. G. Wells. As set forth in the organization's preamble, the purpose of the club was to foster the business interests of Lehi, encourage new industry, and furnish social diversion. This active organization first established a fiveroom suite in the Lehi Commercial Bank and Savings Building, meeting there until 1911 when new rooms were established on the second floor of the Ross Building. The group's efforts were beneficial to several Lehi projects, and were directly responsible for initiating the Lehi Mill and Elevator Company (1906), Mount Pickle Factory (1906), the Central Experimental Farm (1906), and the Lehi Waterworks (1907-09). While the Commercial Club was anxious to see Lehi move forward, another group of men were looking backward into the past. In 1905 the last remaining section of the mud wall of Lehi's old fort was demolished. Bishop Andrew Fjeld initiated the formation of a committee to erect a monument commemorating the his- 17 toric structure. "Let it be of the rugged unpolished granite," Fjeld wrote in a 9 April 1908 letter to the Lehi Banner, "with suitable inscriptions, planted on the line of the old wall on the grounds of the Primary School, where it will stand as a memorial and a witness to the patriotism, zeal and courage of the pioneers of Lehi and builders of the old Fort Wall." A mass meeting was called on 21 April 1908 and not a single dissenting voice opposed the plans. The Lehi Pioneer Committee, consisting of Andrew Fjeld, George N. Child, Hamilton Gardner, W. S. Evans, A. B. Anderson, and Martin Bushman, offered a prize for the monument's design. The Elias Morris Company of Salt Lake City submitted the winning proposal, and the contract for the stone work was given to local stonemason Arthur Bradder. The base was made of Utah granite, and the shaft of Vermont granite. The sixteenfoot-high completed work had two polished surfaces, one containing a map of the fort wall and the other inscribing a brief history of the settlement. Dedicatory services for the $650 Pioneer Monument were held on Thanksgiving Day, 26 November 1908. After a program in the Tabernacle, the monument was unveiled by Azubia Cox Hardwick, first baby born in Lehi. The dedicatory prayer was offered by Apostle J. H. Smith. Three days before the dedication, a fifteenby-fifteen-by-six-inch copper box was placed in a cavity in the base of the monument.

He will simply turn in his old book and obtain a new book containing coupons equal to the number of coupons in the old book or books. Aside from rationing, Lehi citizen's lives were affected by the war in a multitude of ways. Initially there was fear of Japanese attack; as part of civil defense preparations, air raids and "blackouts" were practiced. Outside Christmas lighting was forbidden during the war years. Lehi civilian defense groups were organized under the direction of Mayor Dean Prior. Utah county Public Health Nurse Mabel Jones was general chairperson of the groups with the following subchairpeople: Planning Committee- L. B. Adamson (registering, morale, and publicity). Necessities Committee-So I. Goodwin (clothing and food). Protective Committee-Marshal Rex Gardner (police and fire fighting) . Communications Committee- W. A. Ford (telephone and telegraph). Utilities Committee-Jay K. Haws (fuel and power). Sea fling Committee-E. B. Garrett (clearing debris from bombed buildings). Rescue/ First Aid Committee - Basil Dorton. Nursing - Cleora Lewis Radebaugh. In addition to these assignments each of the town's five LDS wards appointed a captain: Chester Peterson (First), W. W. Dickerson (Second), Rodney Dickerson (Third), Oscar Hunter (Fourth), and Wane Christensen (Fifth). Even before Pearl Harbor, President Roosevelt, in a meeting with Utah Governor Maw and Utah's congressional delegation, mentioned that Utah was being considered for a pig iron plant and steel mill.IOO The 24 july 1941 Lehi Free Press speculated that Lehi was a favored site for this new industry. But after months of deliberations, the Office of Production Management announced the plant would be built by Columbia Steel near the old Geneva Resort. The 30 April 1942 Free Press announced that a huge half-mile-long and 450-feet wide plate, slab, and bloom mill would be built at the new site. Nearly ten thousand 2S workers were involved in the construction of this facility and of a structural steel and plate mill, coke ovens, three blast furnaces, nine open hearth furnaces, and numerous other support facilities. When steel production first began in February 1944, fifteen hundred workers were employed. This number reached forty-two hundred by the following January. During the war the plant produced 634,000 tons of plate steel and 144,280 tons of structural shapes, most of which was used in building warships and cargo carriers. At the end of the war the federal government sold the plant to United States Steel for $47 .5 million. Scores of Lehi workers at the plant contributed their efforts to rebuilding the post-war U.S. merchant fleet. While war raged in Europe and in the Pacific, a Western Air Lines plane with several military men aboard crashed on the sagebrush flats near Fairfield, some sixteen miles west of Lehi. Only two of the nineteen passengers survived, and the Wing Mortuary served as a temporary morgue for the casualties. Throughout the war years, housing shortages existed across America, particularly in areas near defense plants. Because of the great number of military personnel stationed at Camp Williams and the huge work force at the Geneva Steel Plant, Lehi was especially hard hit by the housing shortage. The National Housing Agency, in business to lease homes and buildings and remodel them into living quarters for war workers and their families, succeeded in increasing the available rental units in town. By the fall of 1943 the old Smuin Dancing Academy had been remodeled into twenty apartments, the top story of the Bank of Lehi and Ross Buildings had become six more units, and three additional apartments were built in the large Knudsen home at First South and Center. This home had served as a relocation center for four Japanese families during the early days of the war. 101 In the spring of 1943 plans were announced for constructing two new subdivisions in Lehi. William Kirkham sold six and one-half acres of land in the Fourth Ward area on which thirty-two-to-thirty-four single-family dwellings were planned. The second tract of land was four acres of the old Henry Lewis property in the Third Ward area between Second and Third West. The main street through this subdivision, then called Victory Road, is now Seventh North. "Victory" was the catchword on everyone's lips. Lehi had a Victory Road, and the town's miniature parade became "The Victory Parade." Citizens planted victory gardens, raised victory pigs and calves, and participated in the nationwide "Victory Horn Toot" - three short blasts followed by a long one, to warn less conscientious drivers exceeding the nation-wide thirty-five-milean-hour speed limit. Lehi's "Salvage for Victory" campaign director, Cecil L. Ash, asked Lehi people to donate: 80 THE MUNICIPALITY would be great readers," the newspaper further suggested, "if they only knew where they could secure standard books, books of today, books that are interesting and inspiring." The solution, according to the paper, was to pursue the free public library and gymnasium option outlined by the previous state legislature. This law provided that: Upon petition to the City Council of ten per cent of the taxpayers of any city, for the establishment and maintenance of a Public Library and a Gymnasium, the city Council shall immediately call an election of the taxpayers of said city, to determine if they wish to establish said Library, or said Library and in connection therewith a Gymnasium; and if so, what tax shall be levied to maintain said Library and Gymnasium; if a Library only, then the tax shall not exceed 3 mills if a Library and gymnasium, then the tax shall not exceed four mills. 7 Despite the interest of the Banner and others, the library-gymnasium option was not pursued and the library remained in the Senate Building for the time being. When the city had initially leased this space from Samuel J. Taylor, the monthly rental was $10. In 1914 Taylor advised the city that he was increasing the rent to $12.50. Though this seems a bargain rate by today's monetary standards, it was viewed as excessive by city officials, who decided to relocate the library. Former Mayor Edward Southwick offered to sell his real estate office-the 1873-built Gudmund Gudmundsen jewelry store at 172 West Main. Though Southwick's terms of $10 per month were the same as the Senate Building's rental, city officials felt the asking price of $750 plus interest on deferred payments, was too high. 8 A real bargain came in the fall of 1915 when the Alpine School Board offered the Samuel J. Taylor home to the city with one year rent free. This house, built on the northwest corner of First North and Center Streets in 1898, served as the Lehi Public Library for six years. In 1930 when construction of the high school athletic field necessitated permanent closure of First North between Center and First West, the Taylor home was demolished . Tennis courts were later built on the site. In 1917, two years after the library moved into its temporary quarters in the Taylor home, city officials again sought a new facility. The obvious solution to an impoverished Lehi was to seek a grant from the Andrew Carnegie Corporation. Carnegie, who had amassed a huge fortune in the steel industry, chose to share some of his wealth for the public good. In 1881 he provided the first of thousands of library endowments. Prior to his death in 1919, he had funded 2507 public libraries in the English-speaking world including 1700 in the United States. On 13 February 1917 Samuel Goodwin and Karl Hopkins met with the Lehi city council and proposed that the town pursue a Carnegie grant. A petition from approximately 10 percent of Lehi's taxpayers was also presented to the council. This petition supported a new library and requested a special election to authorize a tax levy of less than one mill to maintain and support the facility. This tax increase won support in the 26 June 1917 election. Later that summer Mayor William F. Gurney appointed the town's first public library committee consisting of Samuel!. Goodwin, Abel J. Evans, Heber Bennion, Jr., Sidney Gilchrist, J . E. Cotter, and Joseph A. Anderson. Meanwhile the city awaited a reply from the Carnegie Corporation. An affirmative response came in a 7 November 1917 letter from James Bertram, secretary of the organization. Lehi was promised a $10,000 endowment on condition the city council agree by resolution to provide maintainence costs of $1,000 per year. During a 20 May 1918 library committee meeting, the old Lehi Tithing Lot on the southeast corner of Center and Second North was selected for a library site. Bishop Andrew Fjeld, chairman of Lehi's four ward bishops, was asked to seek donation of the surplus property from the Presiding Bishopric's office. Three weeks later the city council received a petition from townspeople which requested that the new building contain not only a library but also a new city hall. 9 At a meeting held on 14 February 1919 library committee members heard disappointing news. Bishop Fjeld read a letter explaining that the church would not donate the tithing lot. The Carnegie Corporation also informed the city that they would not support a jointly used building. Mayor Sidney Gilchrist immediately proposed that the group approach the city council about building the library on the west side of Wines Park on Center Street. The library minutes of 9 June 1919 note the council's rejection of this idea. Eventually city and library officials concurred enough to build the library on the southwest corner of Center and First North. But World War I, with its material and manpower shortages, halted construction plans. The 26 August 1920 Lehi Banner announced that Carnegie officials had accepted Lehi's plans for building the library in connection with the Memorial Building provided the library section was set off from the rest of the building. On 23 November 1920 foundation work began. The 22 December 1921 Banner proudly announced that the Spanish-style building, designed by the architectual firm of Ware and Traganza, would be dedicated the following week. "All of our new public buildings," the Banner exclaimed, "are located within one block of each other making a neat, accessable group near the center of town. School houses, grammar, primary, and high school, auditorium [The Tabernacle], City conjoint building and [Smuin] dancing academy are all within a block of each other. The new $10,377.45 Carnegie Library was dedicated by Andrew B. Anderson on 30 December and presented to the city by Mayor James H. Gardner. Because the library shared facilities with the city offices, maintenance and utility costs were split. For example, the MEETING HOUSES Lehi Second Ward James H. Gardner and his counselors William F. Gurney and J. William Wing were the first bishopric when the Second Ward began functioning on 1 January 1904. For the first four years the ward shared space with the First Ward in the Meeting House. From 1908 until 1920 the ward met in the assembly rooms in the Tabernacle's basement. When that building was sold to the Alpine School District the old Central School at Sixth North and Center became the new Second Ward meetinghouse. During a special meeting on Sunday, 31 July 1927, ward leaders decided to build a new building. The following week a twenty-five-member finance committee, chaired by Rodney C. Allred, and a twelve-member building committee, under the direction of A. B. Anderson, were appointed by the bishopric. Three months later the congregation voted to purchase the Margaret Cox property on the southwest corner of Fifth North and Center Street. At the conclusion of a Fast Meeting on 4 December 1927, the crowd walked one block south to the building site and sang "Come, Come Ye Saints." Brief talks were given by Bishop Samuel Goodwin and Alpine Stake Presidency members Stephen L. Chipman and James H. Clarke. The grounds were then dedicated by President Abel J. Evans. Appropriately, considering the task ahead, the group then sang, "Put Your Shoulder to the Wheel." During the next six months enough work was completed so that the cornerstone could be laid on 13 May 1928. As with the Tabernacle, a cavity in the stone was created to hold a box filled with relics, books, magazines, photographs, and other memorabilia. On Friday evening, 30 August 1929, a "grand social and banquet" was held in the amusement hall of the newly completed $55,000 building. The following Sunday the first meeting was held in the chapel, which seated 450 persons. In addition to the assembly hall, which had a large mural of the Hill Cumorah painted on the north wall, the U-shaped building (designed by the architectural firm of Young and Young) had a recreation hall with a stage on the west end. The bishopric's office filled the space between these two areas. The basement included a Relief Society room, kitchen and banquet hall, Boy Scout room, nine classrooms, two rest rooms, and a furnace area. Upstairs above the bishop's office was the prayer circle room where special priesthood functions were held, as had been done in the Meeting House. During the spring of 1932 the grounds were landscaped and a sprinkling system installed. Later that fall a caretaker's cottage was built to the west of the building. This rustic home was constructed of logs from the old Isaac Goodwin barn which had stood on the property since 1875. The twenty-two-foot-wide and thirty- 107 three-foot-long cabin became the home of caretaker William Osborne. 82 The Depression delayed the ward from paying off its building. On 14 March 1931 ward leaders secured a $5,000 loan from Zions Saving and Trust Company, bearing an interest rate of 7 percent. "The Last Roundup" committee finally liquidated this debt in early September 1936. To celebrate the occasion 25-27 September was set aside as a reunion and dedication weekend. On Friday evening the MIA presented a "Scintillating Four-Act Comedy Drama" entitled "Oh Susan" starring a host of Webb kids (Karl, Zada, Ila, and Vern), Hazel Allred, Karma Evans, Max Wilson, Paul Jones, Lucile Winterton, and Emma Lott. The following day an entertainment was held for the Primary children. Later that night a "Special Grand Finale Program DeLuxe" was presented for adults only. The principal address and dedicatory prayer the following afternoon were by church president Heber J. Grant. 83 One of the most interesting programs undertaken by the Second Ward was the 1960 construction of a large steel granary west of the church. Mormon leaders had admonished all members to establish a food storage plan. Under the direction of Bishop Eugene Hilton, 3,300 bushels of wheat were cooperatively purchased and stored in the granary to be withdrawn only in time of general emergency. The wheat was rotated every two years and fumigated without charge. 84 For nearly fifty years the purple-brick church on Center Street served the religious, cultural, and social needs of thousands of Second Warders. But in 1977 Lehi Stake officials announced that a new multi-ward building, to house the Lehi Second, Fifth, and Ninth Wards, would be built at the northwest corner of Third North and Fifth East (Pioneer Drive). Sunday, 2 March 1980, Second Warders began attending church in the new building. A farewell party was held in the old ward on the following Tuesday and then the building was vacated and later sold as a residence. 85 The building proved to be too costly to maintain for a home, though the former cultural hall made a wonderful roller skating rink. During most of the next eight years it remained vacant. The once well-cultivated grounds became weedfilled and overgrown. In 1986 Dr. Blake Evans, who owned the property, sold the building to Mike and Sandee Schanderl for demolition. For a few weeks their crews could be seen removing window frames, dormers, and other salvagable materials. In early August bulldozers began their destructive work and the old building came down in a cloud of dust and rubble. On Saturday, 9 August, the cornerstone was removed and opened. The repository box included four wellpreserved books wrapped in wax paper: A Pearl of Great Price, inscribed by Keith Davis and Della Giles Davis; a copy of The History oj Lehi, by Hamilton Gardner; a Doctrine and Covenants; and a Book of Mormon. MERCANTILES Co-op scrip. But as the sugar industry boomed, cash began to flow more freely into town. On 16 July 1891 the Lehi Commercial & Savings Bank, under president Thomas Cutler, was temporarily established in the People's Co-op while a new bank building was being built on the site of the original People's Co-op store (206 East State). The following month, for the first time in the firm's history, the quarterly dividends of the Coop (3 percent) were paid in cash rather than scrip. Much of this was likely deposited in the new bank, which was paying 5 percent interest. 21 Manager Cutler, who lived across the street from the uptown Co-op, did not ignore the interests of the downtown store. The Branch, though with a smaller inventory than the main store, also had a shoe shop and a butcher shop. During the fall of 1889 the old shoe shop on the east of the main building was demolished and a new general merchandise store built. On 29 April 1893, Cutler (who was also general manager of the Utah Sugar Company) resigned as superintendent of the People's Co-op. William E. Racker, who had been serving as assistant superintendent at the Co-op for some time, was selected to be Cutler's successor. Prosperity continued under Racker's management. The 28 December 1893 Lehi Banner extensively detailed the business of the uptown Co-op at the end of Racker's first year of management. The firm was stocked with $75,000 worth of goods. Twenty clerks were employed and the previous Saturday's sales were reported as $1,500. By 1896 the 1878-built store had become the grocery and hardware department. The 1882-built stone addition housed the shoe and dry goods concerns, where cloth sold for 2¢ to $2 per yard. The 1890-built brick building to the west was stocked with clothing and furnishings. The building farther west was the furniture and stove department, where "everything is kept from the common kitchen chair to the fine upholstered parlor suit." The stove line included selections from the "one burner coal oil stove to the latest improved steel ranges." To the rear of the furniture and stove building in 1896 was a large assortment of farming implements, barbed wire, heavy hardware and iron, and pipe of all sizes and descriptions, as well as a full line of oils and paints. The lumberyard in 1896 offered customized "field and fancy fencing" in addition to a large stock of fir lumber from Oregon and redwood from California. The harness and shoe factory at this point was employing four men full time. The entire uptown Co-op then had a staff of twenty-five men and girls.22 In 1899 the People's Co-op capitalization was increased to $100,000, of which $60,000 was fully paid. In the first two years of the new century Racker Supervised dramatic expansions of both the uptown and downtown stores. In the spring of 1900 the original downtown building (T. & W. Taylor ILehi Union 127 Exchange) was demolished and a large two-story brick facility started. This building (presently the west half of the Colonial House) at 189 West Main was completed in early 1901. The 1889-built portion of the store then became the hardware department. In 1902 the Co-op management initiated construction of a 22,000-square-foot building at the uptown site (161 East State). This structure (Christensen's in 1989) was completed in the spring of 1903. It was one of the first stores in Lehi to be wired for electricity. The 4 June 1903 Lehi Banner commented that it was a pleasure to do business there because there were "no dark corners." The building was also the first in Lehi · to have cement sidewalks. "This is something new in our city," commented the 9 April 1903 Lehi Banner, "and we hope to see our merchants on main street soon do likewise and help make our city look more metropolitan." W. E. Racker was called on a mission to Denmark in early 1903. A festive retirement party was held on his behalf in the Union Hotel. After dinner Co-op president Thomas Cutler presented Racker with a $240 gold watch. Samuel!. Goodwin, who was succeeding Racker, gave a speech. Afterward the group moved to the dancing room in the Lehi Commercial and Savings Bank. 23 When Racker returned from his mission in the summer of 1904 he purchased the downtown Co-op branch. This $9,000 transaction included the lumberyard and all the buildings in the 108-foot frontage- but none of the store goods. Racker Mercantile opened for business on 6 August 1904. To advertise the consolidation of its business interests, the People's Co-op announced in the 4-August 1904 Lehi Banner that "The 'Branch is dead,' long live the MAIN STORE of People's Co-op on State Street." The following year the Co-op divested itself further by selling its livery business to George and Joseph Hammer. 24 In 1912 the People's Co-op, under manager G60awin's oireetion, purchased nearly an entire block of property immediately to the west of their large store. This included the Union Hotel, Peter Larsen's Butcher Shop, and the three Wines' Cottages on the west side of First East. The company then moved their lumber and coal yards from north of the railroad tracks to the northeast corner of State and First East (Peck Lumber Company in 1989). One of the most interesting features at the old lumberyard had been a pneumatic tube connection to the main store. This system, which carried cash and small packages, was also installed at the new lumberyard location in 1924. The Union Hotel, which had been only marginally successful under its previous ownership, was remodeled and refurbished by the Co-op management. But it never regained its former popularity and in 1914 was converted into a movie house - The Royal Theatre. The place achieved immense success unde~Sam:.Goodwin' management. Four years after the theater opened the 128 COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT Co-op expanded its entertainment interests by leasing the former downtown Lehi Opera House (154 West Main). They called their new business the National Theatre. Manager Goodwin not only secured the highest quality films and road shows, but also linked the theaters with the mercantile by issuing PCI tickets (for People's Co-operative Institute). For each $1 spent at the Co-op patrons were given a PCI ticket worth a 5¢ discount on a movie ticket (adults 20¢; children 10¢). The Co-op remained in the entertainment business until 1928. At that time it was necessary to divest itself of the theaters due to the weakening mercantile business. The loss of PCI business can be attributed to several factors. Although a gasoline pump and two six-hundredgallon tanks were installed in front of the store in 1916, the age of the automobile made it easy to shop in other communities. The Co-op remained Lehi's largest mercantile, but other local stores began to achieve success as well. Broadbent's (128 North First East), Larsen Brother's Market (155 West Main), Booth Brothers (2 West Main) Power's Shoe Store (415 North First East), M. S. Lott Plumbing & Electrical (24 West Main), Watson Mercantile (86 West Main), and Wagstaff Clothing Store (120 West Main) were all successful concerns in the mid-to-Iate 1920s. Sam Goodwin, former PCI manager, also joined competition in 1926 when he opened his Goodwin's Golden Rule in the eastern half of the Racker Building (181 West Main). In the single decade, 1926-36, the troubled PCI had at least six different managers - $am GQQdwin A. K. Chatfield, Ward Evans, Jr., C. E. Walker, Charles Robbins, and Armond Webb. In 1929 the store listed numerous departments: yard goods, grocery, butcher shop, furniture, hardware, ladies's and men's ready-to wear clothing (Michael Sterns shirts, Rothschilds hats, Morris dress shoes, Wolverine Cordova work shoes, Ault Williamson's shoes, Ault Shackford shoes, Durham and Rollins hosiery). Co-op directors took great pride in 1929 that they could purchase all local poultry, eggs, beef, pork, lamb, butter, hay, and grain. No exchange for trade was involved as in former years, but instead full value paid in cash. The 4 April 1929 Lehi Sun carried an interview with Co-op manager Kelsey Chatfield. "We are on the eve of a very prosperous period," he observed, "let us work together helping one another and in this manner, (for there is no other way) build a bigger and better Lehi." Unfortunately the stock market crashed six months later and the Great Depression fell like nightfall on many American businesses. Economic hardship struck ZCMI, parent company of the People's Co-op. In the fall of 1937 ZCMI management announced that it was abandoning twenty retail branches, including the Lehi business. "The change in policy was made," announced vice-president and general manager Richard W. Madsen, "because independent merchants in smaller communities preferred not to buy from us because we were competitors in retail lines."25 Many of the former ZCMI branches were quickly sold to local merchants. But the large Lehi property, with its numerous buildings, was sold piecemeal. In January 1937 Afton Giles purchased the feed department at 189 East State. After he moved one door east (193 East State) in 1939, Mr. and Mrs. Heber J. Webb opened a clothing store where Giles had formerly been. They soon sold out to Kirk Crabb in 1944. Lynn R. Webb remodeled the place into Webb's Furnishings, a family clothing store. LeRoy and Edna Gammon bought Webb out in January 1950 and renamed the store Edna's Shop. Freida Peterson and Ruby Southwick opened S and P Apparel there in 1959. After they vacated the building it was empty for a considerable time before Arnold Cardon established his insurance agency there. In 1979 Peck's Building Supply opened The Light Works which carried light fixtures. The Jerry Harris family later remodeled it into The Purple Pig Pizza Parlor which remains in business in 1989. In 1937 M. S. Lott established his plumbing business in the 1878-built store at 193 East State. Stan Giles moved his Giles Feed Store there in 1939. For the next twenty-eight years he carried a "complete line of Grain, Flour, Baled Hay, Cedar Post, Poultry Supplies, etc.''26 In 1967 Wallace and Arlene Olsen purchased the building and established Outpost Antiques there. In 1985 Adventureland Video became established in the place when the Olsens moved their business downtown. Shortly before Adventureland went out of business in 1988, the building was extensively remodeled by owner Ronald C. Peck. Attractive gray-and-white vinyl siding covered the wooden false front, though the original bluerock limestone is still visible on the east and north walls of the building. Lehi Barber Stylist is the tenant in 1989. . In February 1938 Armond Webb, Leland Price, and Lowell Brown, former PCI clerks, opened The People's Store in the former Co-op building at 173 East State. This establishment sold groceries, meat, dry goods, and general merchandise. In the summer of 1944 Webb purchased nearly all the former Co-op property from the ZCMI real estate department. Though he resold most of the buildings, he retained sole ownership of the People's Store (later Market). In 1947 the thirty-three foot wide building was lengthened to sixty-three feet. Five hundred frozen-food storage lockers were added for customer rental. The store was leased to Ralph Larsen in early 1959 and became Larsen's AG Market . . When Larsen moved from the store it was purchased by Christensen's and boarded up in the front in order , to use the facility primarily for storage. The largest Co-op building at 151 East State became a roller skating rink in February 1939. "The Niagara," with a new hardwood floor, advertised "Come to the : Niagara and watch the falls." But the Niagara fell and 136 COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT J. E. Racker Mercantile/Winchester Store When merchant W. E. Racker turned seventy years old on 23 January 1922, he retired from the mercantile business where he had labored for forty years. Under the ownership of his sons Jacob E. and Leonard D. Racker, Racker Mercantile was divided into two stores. The east building (181 West Main) became J. E. Racker Mercantile (dry goods, furnishings and shoe departments). Leonard Racker established the Winchester Store (grocery and hardware departments) in the west building. Jacob Racker took an unusual approach to advertising. In the 4 March 1924 Lehi Sun he listed ten "Good Reasons Why J. E. Racker Sells Better Goods For Less Money": 1. I have no expensive, large or extravagant family to keep. 2. I have no costly fraternal, social or religious obligations. 3. I have quality goods and I give honest measure. 4. I have sense enough to buy the cheapest. 5. I pay cash, thereby saving discounts, getting better prices, etc. 6. I have no delivery, no telephones, the expense is too great. 7. I pay small rent, and pay good wages to my clerks. 8. I sell for spot cash and keep my eyes on my business. 9. I know my customers buy where they get the most for their money, that is good business. 10. I know people who spend their money where they get the least for it, then raise h-ll because times are hard. They need a missionary to teach them that J. E. RACKER MERC. SELLS BETTER GOODS FOR LESS MONEY Goodwin's Golden Rule The 26 November 1925 Lehi Sun announced that both J. E. Racker Mercantile and the Winchester Store were going out of business. The following spring two long-term People's Co-op employees, Samuel!. Goodwin and Sydney Gilchrist, left that firm and established their ow . the~cker stores. Goodwin, who had spent hirty-six . years with the Co-op, opened Goodwin's Go en ~u e In the former J. E. Racker Mercantile on 13 May 1926. Gilchrist, who had worked alongside Goodwin for thirty years, established Gilchrist Hardware in the old Winchester Store during that same spring. "Golden Rule" stores of the period were basically J. C. Penney franchises carrying such items as dry goods, shoes, and clothing. The 6 March 1930 Lehi Sun reported that Goodwin's was moving to the portion of the Ross Block which most recently had been Paltridge Mercantile (86 West Main). In the 8 March 1945 Lehi Sun merchant Sam Goodwin -long-time bishop of the Lehi Second Ward, member of the Alpine School District Board of Education, and a director of the State Bank of Lehiannounced his retirement: "After fifty years of constant service to an appreciative Public and a host of friendly Patrons to whom we are deeply grateful, we announce our retirement from business and the sale of our entire stock of merchandise and fixtures including our good will to G. W. Leany." Though Sam Goodwin's store has been gone for nearly half a century, he unintentionally left a Lehi legacy painted on the north face of the two-story Ross Block. Though "Goodwin's Golden Rule" was his trade name, the still visible words have served for decades as a reminder for people to "treat others as they would like to be treated themselves." The original Racker building leased by Goodwin's Golden Rule (J. E. Racker Mercantile) was the Lehi National Guard Armory from 1930 until World War II. From 1947-51 Ralph Johnson operated a Western Auto store there featuring not only automotive prod. ucts but also clothing, sporting goods, tools, paint supplies, appliances, and furniture. In 1951 Johnson changed the name of his firm to Johnson's Furniture and Hardware. J. Milton Hearn managed the store, which in addition to furniture, sold and serviced Hotpoint, Admiral, ABC, Dexter, Spartan, and Sylvania appliances. 52 Jim and Phyllis Davis operated Davis' Market in the building from 1952 to 1956 after which it became Larsen's AG Market. In 1961 grocer Steve Straw merged the two former Racker Mercantile buildings into a single business - The Silver Dollar Market. When Straw moved to new and larger quarters in 1971, the Greenwood family purchased both buildings. They established Greenwood Carpets & Furniture in the east section and the LaFeria reception center in the west half. In 1978 the two buildings again became one business - the Colonial House-which is owned by Gary Nelson in 1989. The west half of Racker Mercantile has a long history of its own. A dental compartment in the place was the office of Dr. W. L. Worlton (1930-38) and Dr. James Kenning (1949-1953). Gilchrist Hardware moved elsewhere in 1933 and for a time Wallace Banks operated Banks' Appliances on the premises (1944-48). His wife Ruth, editor and publisher of the Lehi Sun, also established the newspaper office there (1947-48). Howard Dettmar for a brief period in 1946 had his radio repair shop in the dental compartment. In 1948 Banks' Appliance became Baker Appliance. One year later the place became Davis' Market (1949-51). Hugh and Barbara Otterson opened the Gateway Furniture Store in 1953. During 1955-61 Harold and Marie Hutchings maintained Hutch's Lone Eagle Trading Post there. When Hutch's moved elsewhere, both Racker buildings were recombined into the Silver Dollar Market. In 1971 it became the LaFeria and in 1978 the Colonial House. MERCANTILES Leany's (Laney's) After George W. Leany purchased Goodwin's Golden Rule in 1945, he maintained the same line of goods carried by the previous owner. He also added household appliances. When Leany's son, Cleon (Clin), returned from World War II service, the two men established a partnership to operate the mercantile and the Utah Theatre (see chapter 42). Clin Leany had received excellent radio/communications training in the military and put these skills to use performing repairs on appliances and radios. For many years the Ross Block (which Laney's eventually completely occupied) was divided into three separate compartments. Since 1901 the west portion (86 West Main) has been continuously occupied by six mercantiles: Ross & Ross, Lehi Cash Store, Watson Mercantile, Paltridge Mercantile, Goodwin's Golden Rule, and Leany's. From 1901 to 1949 the east cubicle (80 West Main) was the Lehi Post Office. The middle section (82 West Main) has seen the greatest variety of tenants including Wadsworth's Drug Store (190 1-06) and the State Bank of Lehi (1906-19). In the 1920s it was converted into a dentist office for Dr. Harold Christensen. It was then successively occupied by two other dentists, Dr. J. G. Jones and Dr. Will Worlton. Sam Goodwin converted the suite into a ladies department in 1938. Then in 1944 Alex Jameson established the Lehi Bakery there. When Jameson built his own bakery building at 35 West Main in 1946 (The Bridal Shop in 1989), Leany's expanded into the area vacated by the bakery. For a six-month period in 1952 Leany's became Allred's. Leslie Allred purchased the mercantile from George W. Leany in January. The 24 July 1952 Lehi Free Press announced that Leany had repurchased it from Allred. Clin Leany took over management of the store in late 1953 and built up a large appliance business (featuring Frigidaire) while managing the Utah Theatre at night. In January 1963 Clin and Relva Leany purchased the Ross Block (which had been leased from the Hewitt Strong family) and initiated an extensive renovation and modernization project under the direction of local contractor Alma Peterson. A new exterior on the south facing was built of white etruscan brick and blue and silver plate glass panels. The interior partition that had divided the two west compartments was removed, making one large, open salon. While the construction project was taking place, Leany's temporarily moved to 189 West Main, which had recently been vacated by Hutch's. Saturday, 13 July 1963, was the Grand Opening of Leany's new store. In addition to the appliance business (television, vacuums, sewing machines), Clin and his wife, Relva offered men's, women's, and children's clothing, and an extensive line of shoes. Dry goods were still offered as well as many other sundry items. In addi- 137 tion to a wide variety of promotional gifts, the store awarded a free pair of "Hush Puppies" to the patron who could most closely guess the melting time of a block of ice containing a single shoe. The mercantile world is a constantly changing, dynamic environment. Merchants must make adjustments to retain business. In the late 1970s Clin Leany went so far as to give his store a new name by changing the spelling of his surname to Laney. He also discontinued his appliance, dry goods, and shoe departments. Emphasis was then placed on electronic entertainment including stereos and televisions. Women's and young ladies' fashions expanded into the former men's wear and shoe departments. An extensive video casette rental department featuring hundreds of movies, was later added, and in 1988 a drop-off station for dry-cleaning needs was offered by the store. In mid-May 1989 Clin and Relva Laney announced that after nearly forty-three years in business they were going to retire, "relax and enjoy life to its fullest." Until July they regularly slashed prices until virtually all their clothing items were sold. The video and Nintendo business was sold to Tom and Clayton Kearl of Sandy who opened Fun Fever in the Laney building. The Kearl's business was not successful, however, and in October 1989 Clin Laney reopened for business under the new name Laney's Circus Video. Johnson's General Store Lehi Junction in the early 1880s was a vibrant focal point of railroad, industrial, and commercial activities. The Salt Lake & Western and the Utah Central Railways spawned numerous business pursuits along historic Railroad Street. Heber Comer established the first mercantile in the area shortly after the Lehi Junction depot was completed in 1881 at the intersection of Railroad Street and 2100 North. Not much is known about Comer's store except that it was burglarized on 25 J anuary 1883 by engine tender William H. Colton. The pickings were slim. All the thief received from his efforts was some loose change and a pouch of tobacco. 53 Comer sold the store in 1890, purchased a piece of property from Joseph Dorton at 116 West Main, and erected a large twenty-four-by-fifty-foot brick building. While his sons John and Alma fitted the new place up for a saloon, the elder Comer devoted his energies to other enterprises - including an ice business, several ice cream parlors, a shoe shop, and a threshing business. The 19 October 1905 Lehi Banner reported that Charles L. Johnson purchased the junction store on Railroad Street from William Melanthay. Johnson moved his family into a three-room house attached to the south side of the mercantile. "Much of the store business," wrote his daughter Lucile (White), "was filling orders to be sent out to the mining towns of Sun- 160 COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT on a rawhide boot. Block and Tackle made a man walk a block and tackle anything. Tongue Oil induced a man to talk his head off. Corpse Reviver made the dead rise. Lamp Oil kept a man well lit, and White Mule had a mighty kick. Other colorful terms for booze included the designations Tangle Leg, Tarantula Juice, Nockum Stiff, Widow-Maker, Wolf Whiskey, Pine Top, Stump-Puller, Gut Warmer, Phlegm Cutter, Neck Oil, Popskull, Red Eye, Scamper Juice, Sheepherder's Delight, Nose Paint, Tonsil Varnish, Tornado Juice, Stagger Soup, Kickapoo, Jubilee Juice, Gas Remover, Fool Water, Moral 'Suasion, Diddle Liquor, Coffin Varnish, and Snakebite Medicine. On these concoctions a man got drunked up or pickled, blossom-nosed or struck with bottle fever. He might have gone on a high and lonesome, painted his nose, rusted his boiler, suffered an attack of the prevailing epidemic, or got the jimjams. In belting the grape or imbibing his forty drops he may have become boozeblind or as drunk as a boiled owl or skunk. Worse still he may have awoke feeling as though a cat had "kittened" in his mouth, or as if he had breakfasted with a coyote. At that point he unceremoniously "aired his paunch" - that is, vomited. 21 The color of saloon language masks the underlying tragedy of lost dreams, broken homes, ruined health, and other human misery caused by drunkenness - alcoholism as it is now called. Much of the opposition to saloons in Lehi centered on their corrupting influence on young fellows~ High licensing fees required the sale of considerable liquor to stay afloat. In 1908, for example, A. O. Slade and Nate Rockhill each paid $890 for their city license. By comparison Darling's Hotel paid $10 during the same period, while the People's Co-op, the largest mercantile in town, paid only $125. Owning a saloon was a dog-eat-dog business. In order to survive proprietors often resorted to illegal tactics. They remained open after specified closing hours or on Sundays. Patrons were encouraged to drink to the limits of their purses and constitutions. But the infraction that caused the greatest uproar was selling to minors. For example Al Rockhill, a notorious offender, was fined $95 for selling Arthur Lewis (age sixteen) and Sylvester Wilcox (age seventeen) "glass after glass of liquor on [5 July 1897] irrespective of their tender age." This case was a major factor resulting in the passage of Prohibition in 1898. 22 During the summer of 1905, when Prohibition was again gathering a head of steam, Lehi City officials drew up for the marshal a list of forty underage young men known to frequent saloons. The boys and the saloon proprietors were then warned that if these wayward youths were caught carousing in saloons they would be prosecuted. 23 The following week in an editorial the 31 August Banner strongly supported the city's action. Many of the forty offenders had lied about their age. "This law has been provided for the welfare of our young men," the paper argued: It is to be regretted that there are some who do not realize it but persist in doing those things that tear down body and soul. The drinking habit is easily formed, step by step until the individual is bound by iron bands, which sear his conscience and blight the prospects of an otherwise prosperous life. A young man who drinks usually smokes and uses profane language, his thoughts and tastes degenerate until revolting crimes are committed-the fruits of former habits of thought and action. The paper followed up with a strong 12 October 1905 editorial arguing that it was "criminal negligence" for communities to permit boys to "blight their lives by forming evil habits." Parents were advised to co-operate with city officials in enforcing the laws and "otherwise surrounding our boys and girls with environments that may aid in establishing righteous habits of thought and action." National Prohibition Temperance advocates in the eastern U. S. formed in 1893 the Anti-Saloon League, which became one of the most formidable pressure groups in the country. It enlisted a number of pastors, especially among the evangelical Protestants, who could mobilize their congregations to elect or defeat a candidate. From the same source the league raised large sums of money, some of which went into political contributions and some into propaganda. Between 1909 and 1923 its publishing house printed more than one hundred million pamphlets. By 1906 the LDS Church was moving toward a policy of requiring abstinence from alcohol for full fellowship, and several Mormon leaders-especially Heber J. Grant, Anthony W. Ivins, Francis M. Lyman, and George Albert Smith of the Council of the Twelvefavored statewide Prohibition. As the campaign to effect this goal began, Utah sentiment divided into several camps. Republicans aligned with Governor William Spry, Senator Reed Smoot, and Church President Joseph F. Smith generally opposed statewide Prohibition, favoring local controls instead. Most Democrats, including Heber J. Grant, favored a statewide measure. On 11 August 1909 representatives from all Utah County cities met and approved a county-wide Prohibition law to take effect on 1 January 1910. "LEHI HAS COME IN LINE," reported the 16 September 1909 Lehi Banner, "City Council Passes a Liquor Ordinance." But the vote was close. After Gus Slade and Judge Rydalch made an impassioned plea for the liquor men, Councilmen Sam Goodwin, Joseph Goates, and Henry Lewis voted aye for Prohibition while Jonas Holdsworth and LeRoy Lott voted nay. Mayor Thomas FLOUR AND GRIST MILLS and a friend John Hansen had been fishing most of the day as Mr. Turner herded sheep nearby. Towards evening the two boys got into a rowboat without oars and drifted out onto the pond. A high wind began to blow and the boys tried to paddle ashore with their hands. When they were unable to make headway, Ted, a strong swimmer, jumped into the water and began to swim to shore. The water was too choppy, however, and he quickly disappeared while his friend looked on helplessly. The wind soon blew the boat ashore and young Hansen sought help from a nearby fisherman. A search team was assembled and the body was recovered three hours later. 7 Thirteen-year-old Bobby Wagner met death in the Mill Pond on 15 April 1964. The Pleasant Grove boy and his friend had swam out to Grass Island, but on their return to shore young Wagner was stricken with cramps and sank. His companion swam to the shore and ran to the nearby Utah-Idaho Sugar Company warehouse, where he told manager Morris Clark what had happened. Clark quickly summoned his work crew, Gary Clark, Lewis Stewart, Dale Colledge, Guy Edwards, and Val Roberts, and they repeatedly dove into the murky water attempting to find the boy. Their efforts were futile; his body was not recovered until the following day. Lehi Roller Mills For nearly fifteen years after the Spring Creek Flour Mill ceased operation, Lehi farmers had to haul their grain to American Fork for milling. After considerable effort by the Lehi Commercial Club, the 22 June 1905 Lehi Banner announced that Lehi was to have "a new flour mill with modern pattern and equipment." Stockholders of the Lehi Mill & Elevator Company, who invested $20,000 in the new venture, included the People's Co-op, Lehi Mercantile, Racker Mercantile, Thomas R. Cutler. G. N. Child, John Y. Smith, James H. Gardner, Henry Lewis, John Roberts, David Smith, Thomas Webb, Thaddeus Powell, George Webb, and Mathias Knudsen. During a stockholders meeting in early July 1905 Thomas Webb was appointed chairman and S. I. Goodwin secretary of the new company. Committeemen were Parley Austin, S. I. Goodwin, Thad Powell (Location); James H. Gardner, G. N. Child, W. E. Racker (Power); Mr. Perry, David Smith, John Y. Smith, Abel J. Evans (Machinery). The site for the mill was selected on East Main Street on the sugar factory spur of the Union Pacific Railroad. The 27 July Banner reported that rock was being hauled for the structure's foundation. The contract for the mill's machinery was let to the Wolf Company of Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, the largest suppliers of mill machinery in the United States. This equipment included four sets of double rollers, one washer, two purifiers, two reels, one cleaner, one dust roller, one gyrator, one separator, and one bran duster. 8 229 The three-story-high building, with its multitude of cables, belts, and whirring machinery, was initially powered by a fifty-horsepower motor. Under the management of Parry and Franck, the first sack of flour was produced on 2 April 1906. Full daily capacity of sixty to seventy bushels was soon achieved. The immediate success of the mill required that an addition be built in May 1906. And when the directors met later that summer on 30 July they decided to immediately erect an elevator with a capacity of 10,000 bushels. The long-term prosperity of the mill has largely been linked to the success of the dry farm wheat raised in Cedar Valley. The first local interest in dry farming was raised in 1905 when Dr. John A. Widtsoe gave a lecture on the topic. In 1906 Congress passed a bill opening the Fort Crittenden (Camp Floyd) Military Reserve to private ownership. On 30 July 1906 a large number of Lehi men met in the Primary School building to discuss "arid farming." Bishop Andrew Fjeld acted as chairman of the group. After discussing how to obtain land parcels, the price of planting and fencing, a vote was taken to organize a co-op to dry farm on a large scale. A land-selection committee was appointed which consisted of A. J. Evans, G. L. Stookey, Henry Lewis, Peter Schow, and G. N. Child. Their objective was to travel to Cedar Valley and select 5,000-6,000 acres of land for the co-op. The committee for soliciting acreage consisted of Ed Southwick, James M. Kirkham, Dr. E. C. Merrihew, R. John Whipple, and John Roberts. During the 6 August 1906 dry farm meeting the committee reported that while there was ample land in Cedar Valley it could only be registered to homesteaders willing to file on a quarter section. This discouraged most of the group and the idea of forming a co-op was abandoned. Although a land co-op was not formed, many Lehi men filed on Smoot Homesteads, as the land parcels were called. Successful dry farmers in the area have included Albert Sprately, Lyman Losee, Roy Lott, Mendenhall Brothers, John and Harry Stoker, Isaac Hardman, John Beveridge and Sons, John Devey and Sons, C. E. Wade, James H. Gardner, Aaron Allred, Ed Southwick, Arthur Hawkins, Clark and Hall, Hyrum and Earl Smith, A. D. Rhodes, Peter C. Adamson, Lazelle Mulliner, A. W. Davis, John R. and Ernest Hindley, A. A. Johnson, Freeman Brothers, Holbrook Farms (Dr. Horace, Gam, Stephen, and Scott Holbrook), Rodney C. Allred, Douglas Smith, Roosevelt Smith, Grant and Jim Smith, and Howard and Brent Ault. In the earliest days of Lehi Roller Mills operation (name changed in 1907), the plant had to regularly advertize for grain. "WANTED - 5000 bushels of wheat at 75<1: per bushel and any amount of barley at 85<1: per cwt." was a typical ad of the day in the 14 November 1907 Lehi Banner. On 25 August 1909 Giles & Giles 250 INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT near the mine, a massive avalanche slid down the mountain and engulfed the building. Another worker escaped unhurt and walked down the canyon to summon help from American Fork. But it was too late for Tyng. A group of his friends, working in a fierce blizzard, found him dead, a nail driven into his brain. After considerable effort Tyng's body was taken to American Fork where a reading of his will stated in part that "If I should be killed in the canyon, make my grave and bury my body on the knoll in front of my cabin on Kalamazoo Flat." The request was honored, but not without difficulty. The body was strapped on skies, pulled back up the canyon and laid to rest in a grave from which several feet of snow had been scraped. 2 The 22 August 1914 Lehi Banner reported eight mines still in operation in the American Fork District, including the Bay State, Bog, Live Yankee, Miller, North Star, Old Dutchman, Pacific, and Water Fall. By the following summer one hundred men were working in ten mines. The 10 June 1916 American Fork Citizen headlined that "Twenty Three Properties Doing Development WorkGreatest Activity in Canyon's History - Over Forty Companies Will Soon Be Actively At Work In American Fork Canyon And Not One Of Them Wild Catting." Despite the optimism most of the mines were closed by 1918. But the Bog, Live Yankee, Old Dutchman, Pacific, Silver Bell, and Silver Dipper were re-opened in the early 1930s and produced 75,000 tons of ore before closing again in the mid-1950s. The picturesque tram which moved ore to Deer Creek closed in 1952 and was removed by the forest service in 1956. The district remained quiet for nearly thirty years. As gold and silver prices began to rise rapidly in late 1979, new interest in American Fork Canyon mining was seen. Under the direction of Lloyd Strong the Live Yankee was opened but soon closed again. W. Dan Proctor, however, re-opened the Silver Bell and in 1983 mined nearly two thousand tons of ore before shutting down. Although the American Fork Mining District has remained inactive since 1983, the total wealth recovered from its many mining properties has been estimated at $50 million in today's dollars. This ore contained 46,000 ounces of gold, 2.5 million ounces of silver, 2.8 million pounds of copper, 35 million pounds of lead and 1 million pounds of zinc. 3 Lehi Mining District In mid-March 1894 Eli Kendall, prospecting four miles west of Lehi, stumbled across an interesting rock seam. Collecting a few samples from what he termed the "Red Mason Vein," Kendall's assay results, received back on March 24, showed $18.40 gold per ton. Word quickly spread; by nightfall twenty-five prospectors had arrived in the area. Four days later after another claim assayed high, three hundred men, delirious with gold fever, were scouring the hills. "The precious metal was found under most every sagebrush over the river," reported a local assayer, and the Lehi Mining District Was created to handle the claim filing. Within a week one thousand claims were located and 125 recorded. Unfortunately the assays were erroneous. There was no gold in those hills. One of the few to achieve much financial benefit from the affair was S. W. Ross, the Lehi Mining District recorder, who earned enough money to get a good start on his mission to England. 4 Another major figure during the 1894 gold rush was William Sunderland, the local assaysist at Lehi Junction. His 5 July 1894 ad in the Lehi Banner noted, "Gold and Silver Ore Sampled and Tested by the various Processes of Leaching. General Mining Business Done." Although it is not known if the faulty assays which set off the stampede were Sunderland's, there are no other similiar advertisements in the local paper. Mining activities in and about Lehi generated such interest that the Lehi Banner began front-page coverage of such items. "Lehi Mining Notes," and "Mercur Mining Notes," were read with interest by most local men. The 23 April 1896 Banner announced the formation of the Big-Four Mining Company, the first mining firm to establish headquarters in Lehi. The company's board of directors included W. E. Racker (president), E. A. Goodwin (vice-president), S. I. Goodwin (secretary and treasurer), Mosiah Evans, and Robert Fox. The article also discussed the mining interests of other Lehi men, including John Beck (Bullion Beck and Champion mines in Tintic), Thomas R. Cutler, Ira D. Wines, and W. E. Racker (Utah Consolidated and Sioux mines in Tintic), and Frank and Newburn Butt (discoverers of the Sunshine Mine in Camp Floyd Mining District). Another Lehi mining organization, the Wanlass Mining Company, was incorporated in the spring of 1909 to develop properties in the Chimney Rock area south of Pelican Point. The 1 April 1909 Lehi Banner reported the company's officials as John Roundy (president), F. B. Fuller (vice-president), W. E. Evans (secretary), and F. Rasell (treasurer). Oliver Cedarstrom and Nate Rockhill were directors. Pelican Point In the early years the road west of Utah Lake was often used for wagon traffic to the southern settlements. Not far from the roadway near Pelican Point was a large outcropping of limestone. In 1856 lime production began at this site. Burned with cedar wood, the first load of lime was pulled across Utah Lake on a raft and from there by ox team to Salt Lake City, where it was used in construction of Brigham Young's Lion House. Limestone production at Pelican Point increased dramatically after the leases were bought by the Utah Sugar ---~-----:.-."": Racker Mercantile in 1912 is Colonial House in 1989.

Goodwin's Golden Rule was next door to Lehi State Bank in this 1932 photograph. (Courtesy Lillie Ann Bradshaw.) CELEBRATIONS of war, they began with enthusiasm in 1941. The following were the group's first committee chairmen: S. 1. Goodwin. Dr. 1. G . lones Dean Prior . . . Clelllackson . Stanley M . Taylor Daryl Fowler. A . C. Schow . . . Rodeo Parade Advertising and Publicity Dances Concessions Finance Program The 1941 celebration held 3-5 July was an overwhelming success and the CIA was able to repay the city the $500 it had borrowed for the event. Since 1941 the CIA has either sponsored or contributed to a wide spectrum of community activities other than the annual celebration. A 1987 history of the organization lists contributions to the Lehi Recreation Committee, contributing to the F.F.A., prize money in their stock shows; sponsoring one or more (as many as 5) boys to attend Boys' State; buying baseball uniforms and sponsoring teams; adding shower facilities for American Legion amateur sports; helping merchants purchase flags and pennants for Main Street and Christmas decorations; inviting handicapped Scouts to a rodeo performance and continuing the practice, now including other handicapped guests from the Training School; contributing to the Hutchings Museum fund, providing ribbons for flower shows, purchasing a dishwasher for the Lehi Hospital; supporting the Veterans in securing ground for a permanent ball park . IS Other projects the group has participated in include actively encouraging the government to build the General Refractories plant in Lehi during World War II, and assisting with purchase of floodlights for the High School Athletic Field (also used in rodeo lighting). CIA funds have been used to purchase high school band uniforms, city street markers, a hospital sterilizer, a portable public address system for civic functions, and an organ for the Lehi Tabernacle. Donations have been given to flower shows, county fairs, school plays, Christmas parties, the Boy Scouts of America, and other worthwhile community activities. Though the Lehi Civic Improvement Association has existed for forty-eight years, it has had only nine presidents: Alva H. Wing (1941-47), Daryl Fowler (1947-48), George Lewis (1948-65), Dean Prior (1965-71), B. J. Lott (1971-72), Lynn Lewis (1972-81), Morris Clark (1981-86), LaVere Downs (1986-89), and VaNile "Mike" Southwick (1989- ). Lehi Roundup Shortly after the CIA was formed in 1941, a "Name the Celebration" contest was held which was won by Ethel Hunger with her entry, "The Lehi Roundup." The name stuck and the CIA has worked continuously since then to provide Lehi with an outstanding summer cele- 271 bration centered around three nights of professional rodeo . But the Lehi Roundup is more than rodeo. The week long celebration now kicks off with a Monday night family picnic and entertainment at Bandwagon Park. High school and family reunions are traditionally held during this week, as are sidewalk sales by local businesses. The city sponsors a no-fee swim in the Lehi pool, while the Lehi Arts Council sponsors a free display of the works of local talent. A Main Street barbeque and western dance are part of the festivities, as is the Western Stock Parade, a long-time favorite of townspeople. The miniature parade is held on Friday evening and Saturday morning. Saturday events also include a chuckwagon breakfast, a 5-kilometer run, a bike race, and a Fun-day carnival on the old Athletic Field. Some interesting events are no longer part of the Lehi Roundup. In the late 1940s and early 1950s, an annual "beard growing contest" was initiated in early May by the Jaycees. On the final night of the rodeo prizes were awarded for the longest, funniest, and thickest beard, as well as the one displaying the most character. A special prize was also awarded to the "man who extends the most effort with the least accomplishment." For those who refused to grow a beard, one of the city's old iron jail cells was set up downtown. Many a smooth-cheeked Lehi man spent a few hours there as punishment for lack of whiskers. For many years Monte Young Rides and Shows came to town during Roundup week and set up on either First West and Main or on Center Street near the High School. The carnival turned darkness into a wonderful dreamland. Raspy-throated barkers, hurdy gurdy music, and the excitement of the midway remain enchanting memories. And who can forget the pungent aroma of a melt-in-your-mouth cotton candy or the ruby-like sheen of a red-candied apple? In the 1960s it became increasingly difficult for Lehi to attract a carnival. Both Monte Young and his wife died, and the company disbanded. For a time the town sponsored a community carnival in Wines Park. This was primarily to raise funds for the new Hutchings Museum. In the late 1970s and early 1980s Lou Melendez's "City of Fun" set up a few times on the old high school Athletic Field and the new high school parking lot. But because of lack of sufficient revenue, and the fact that Lehi's celebration is one week before Provo City'S Freedom Celebration, Lehi has had no professional carnival since then. In 1987 the community commemorated the fiftieth anniversary of professional rodeo in Lehi with a spectacular celebration which included the publication of a souvenir Fiftieth Anniversary Roundup History by the Lehi Civic Improvement Association. Though Lehi Roundup activities now occupy the entire final week of June, the three nights of bronc bustin', calf ropin', and bull ridin' are what bring in the crowds. AMUSEMENT HALLS film was rewound and the projector turned off. A few diehards lingered in reverie though the doors were closed - forever. The building remained vacant and void of the laughter and tears of memorable evenings. In 1962 druggist Abe Ekins purchased the property and razed the historic old structure. In March 1963 he began construction of the new Lehi Drug Store. Isis Theatre When Prohibition became law in Utah County on 1 January 1910 Nate Rockhill's New Log Cabin Saloon (155 West Main) faded into history. In October of the following year the spacious building was converted into another palace of leisure, though not quite as frolicsome as the first. The Isis Theatre (a name inspired by the Egyptian goddess of fertility) was first leased by Lester Park and managed by Alver Ahlquist. It was later operated by a Mr. Goates and the Openshaw brothers. Apparently the theatre remained in business for only a few months in 1911. The few Isis ads in the Lehi Banner were similiar to those for the Lehi Opera House located across the street north. As usual, the 23 September 1911 newspaper predicted "record-breaking crowds," at 10<1: per person, to see the following short subjects: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Renunciation Hearts and Politics Under Both Flags Barrel Jumpers Wild West, Wild West Comedy From the Arctics to the Tropics Bumptious as Fireman The 4 November 1911 Banner noted that the Isis management had received a number of calls requesting "drama of western life." Accordingly the program of that evening was as follows: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Willie Romany's Wife Wilful Peggy The Way of the Redman A Cruise to the Mediterranean Buying a Bear Order That was the last Isis advertisement. The 10 August 1912 Lehi Banner reported a fire in the building. In February 1913 May Comer and her sons leased the place for a restaurant, ice cream parlor, and confectionery business. From 1914 to 1921 Garff Brother's Sanitary Market was the occupant. Many Lehi citizens, however, best remember Larsen's Market as being there from 1921-56. After housing a number of businesses since that time the building is Hair Cuts West in 1989. Royal Theatre With the Isis Theatre out of business and the Lehi Opera House teetering on the brink in 1914, superin- 281 tendent S. 1. Goodwin of the People's Co-op (Lehi's largest mercantile) recognized a void in the entertainment business. He accordingly instituted the remodeling of the company's Union Hotel (at 121 East State) into a new opera house. The forty-by-eighty-seven-foot historic building (built in 1891) was completely gutted and renovated to accommodate seven hundred seats - including 286 in the balcony. Though management's primary intent was to create a movie house, a large stage and orchestra pit (built of one hundred thousand bricks) was constructed on the north end of the structure. This stage, designed to accommodate the scenery sets of the largest traveling troups, was fifty-five feet wide, thirty-one feet deep, and forty feet high. Cornelius Salsbury painted a summer scene of the Rio Virgin River on the curtain and subsequently completed several stage sets.27 As the new theater neared completion in August 1914, management advertised one hundred free movie tickets to the person submitting the best name and most appropriate slogan for the new place. After considering such names as "Ideal," "Empress," "Weneedit," "Peopin," "Upton," and "SIG" (in honor of S. 1. Goodwin), the committee chose the "Royal Theatre." The winning name was submitted by four people: Sarah Austin, Linden Fowler, Jesse Russon, and Mrs. Joseph Kirkham. The slogan became, "Meet Me at the Royal."28 Though "get acquainted" movies had been shown the weekend before, the Royal was opened to the public on 23 September 1914. Patrons were awed by the building's acoustics, lavish lighting system, and up-todate exit doors which could be opened by pushing a cross bar. Movies were not the only event at the Royal. Many high school plays, beginning with the 10 March 1915 production of A Nautical Knot, thrilled parents and townspeople alike. Big political rallies were held there. Some rather high class vaudeville troups, such as the "The Inland Empire Vaudeville Circuit," performed on the stage. A memorable road show in 1915 was "Richards' & Pringle's Famous Georgia Minstrels," a group of "talented colored boys." On 4 March, the day of the production in the Royal Theatre, the company paraded about Lehi's principal streets to the accompaniment of Simpson's Challenge Band. 29 A "world famous magician," the Great Marquis, entertained credulous fans at the Royal in 1938. The program promised, and delivered, "many strange and unusual things." Beautiful girls were changed into rabbits and the live bunnies were then given away to lucky children in the audience. Ghosts walked the aisles and skeletons swooped down to sit among the spectators in a show filled with "wonderland and fantasy."3o Wrestling and boxing matches-often promoted by the Lehi Fire Department - stirred betting men to a frenzy in the Royal. While the town lacked a Mohammad Ali, Hulk Hogan, or Andre the Giant, it did have 302 CIVIC SERVICE units statewide, was abolished by the Utah Legislature. On 30 June 1915, the Lehi school system along with those from Alpine, Cedar Fort, Fairfield, American Fork, Pleasant Grove, and Lincoln (Orem) became the new Alpine School District. 26 The last session of the Lehi District school board was held on 1 July 1915 . The final statistical report for the 1914-15 school year counted 887 students (468 male, 419 female). The board had employed six male teachers, whose average monthly salary was $81.67, and sixteen female teachers who, earning one-third less than their male peers, averaged $61.40. 27 Alpine School District's first board, appointed by state commissioners, consisted of the following men: S. E. Bunnell (Lincoln-Orem), Charles G. Johnson (Pleasant Grove), Eli J. Clayson (American Fork), S. I. Goodwin (Lehi), and Alfred Anderson (Alpine, Highland, Fairfield, Cedar Fort). The first public election in the district was held 6 December 1916. 28 As a result of consolidation the property title of each Lehi school was transferred to the Alpine School District. The Central School continued to be used as the high school until 1921, when a new building on the southeast corner of Center and Second North was completed. The Lehi Second Ward, which had been meeting in the Lehi Tabernacle, then moved into the Central School. It was used as a Mormon chapel until 1928, when a new Second Ward building was completed. The Central School bell, which hung in the belfry for forty years, was rung every morning-first at 8:30 and then again at 9:00. The bell could be heard anywhere in the community and its early morning ringing meant the customary setting of clocks throughout the community. On Armistice Day, 11 November 1918, the Central bell joined the chorus of bells rung throughout our nation signaling the end of World War I. When the school was sold for salvage the bell would have been discarded had not Blanche Larsen, a member of the graduating class of 1913, obtained the relic. It is now in the John Hutchings Museum collection, though not on public display.29 Left unoccupied, the old Central School was frequently vandalized. The 13 October 1932 Lehi Sun announced that bids were being accepted for the Central School property. Dr. G. S. Richards purchased the site and the building was demolished in 1933 by local contractor Chase Featherstone. In August 1935 Mrs. Josephine Cooper built a home on the 7 East Sixth North site (which is still standing in 1989). Sego Lily Responding to the state legislature's 1896 mandate that all school children between the ages of eight and fourteen attend school at least twenty weeks per year, the Lehi School Board decided to build a new elementary school at 723 East Ninth North. The Sego Lily School, named after Utah's state flower, was built by Lehi builder John Willes. Building design showed special attention to proper light. Ventilation transoms were built over each window and several ventilating flues were constructed in the main walls. The front door of the twenty-four-by-twenty-eight foot schoolhouse with its fourteen-foot-ceiling opened into an eight-by-twentyfour foot cloakroom. The one-room Sego Lily was designed to accommodate fifty children. Blackboards extended on all sides of the room and it was supplied with "automatic desks" according to the 14 September 1897 Lehi Banner. Cliff Austin, ninety-seven-year-old Lehi native, remembered starting school in the Sego Lily when he was five years old. On cold winter days the potbellied stove in the high-ceilinged room was inadequate for heating purposes. "Whoever was at one side of the room," Austin remembers, "they were sweating, and at the other side, they were cold."30 Cliff Austin, like other Lehi students at the turn of the century, was "full of the devil," as he put it. The Lehi School District in 1900 printed "Rules for School Pupils" for keeping mischievous students under control and school buildings intact: Pupils are required in case of absence or tardiness to furnish an excuse from a parent or other person satisfactory to the teacher. 2. Pupils are not allowed to leave the school playgrounds at recess or any other time during session of school, except by permission of the teacher. 3. Pupils should keep their books and utensils neat and in order. 4. A pupil who shall in any way injure or deface any school house or school furniture, or other property, or who shall use any profane or vulgar language, or make any obscene pictures, shall be liable to suspension or expulsion. 5. All damages done to school property shall be repaired at the expense of the parent or guardian of the pupil doing the same. 6. The use of tobacco by pupils will not be allowed on school grounds, and the reading of light, trashy lit" erature is also forbidden . 7. No pupil will be accepted to a grade in the school until he gives satisfactory evidence of his fitness for that grade, nor will anyone be permitted to leave off any study belonging to his grade except by special permission of the board. 8. A seat will be assigned each pupil which he shall keep neat and in order and make no change unless approved by the teacher. 9. Pupils are required to be neat and clean, both in dress and in person. When unfit to appear in school they may be sent home to be properly prepared. 10. Repeated violation of any of the rules or regulations of the school by any pupil, or continued disobedience to the teacher shall be considered cause for expulsion. 31 1. In 1903, when Lehi was divided into four Mormon wards, the Sego Lily school was used for a time as the 304 CIVIC SERVICE students (including a freshman class of 102). Plans for a new building were drawn up and submitted to Alpine School Board President Samuel I. Goodwin. These plans, which included remodeling the Lehi Tabernacle (1989 site of Lehi Stake Center) and building an additional structure to the east, never materialized. Fear struck the hearts of Lehi citizens in the late 1920s when State Superintendent of Schools I. J. Muir announced he was in favor of a consolidated Alpine District High School in American Fork (Lehi's chief rival). "It isn't hard to foretell how the local people will feel about this question," responded the 16 December 1920 Lehi Sun: "it is well that we awake to the move and keep in touch with anything that might come up." But high school consolidation was not to be. Each community in the district was allowed to maintain its own identity. In the spring of 1921 new Alpine School Board President F. D. Worlton announced that a Lehi High School would be built on the Lehi Tithing Office site on the southeast corner of Center and Second North. Plans for this new school were identical to the nearly completed $95,000 Lincoln High School in Orem. A general contract bid of $72,874 was awarded to W. G. Reed, a Salt Lake contractor. Coupled with Lehi plumber M. S. Lott's $19,950 plumbing and heating bid, the Lehi High School's cost, excluding property, was $92,834. When school opened on 19 September 1921 the building was not ready for occupancy. But the 170 students and faculty members-Principal David Mitchell, Junius Banks, Margaret Thurman, Leander Tamminen, Robert Pixton, Merel Chipman, Louise Hyatt, and Mary A. Anderson, were immensely proud of their new quarters when they moved there the last week of October. 36 The ground floor of the two-story building contained four class rooms, a study room and library, office space for the principal, a girl's locker and rest room, and a sixty-by-one-hundred-eight-foot gymnasium. On the second floor were four additional classrooms, a library, physics and chemistry laboratories, lecture room, and boys' lockers and toilets. On the lower floor at the entrance to the gymnasium a collapsible iron gate was installed which allowed the rest of the school to be closed off from the gym during the hundreds of basketball games and dances that were held there. Across the street north of the new school building and immediately east of the Lehi Tabernacle a seminary building was built in 1922 for Mormon religious instruction - referred to in educational parlance as "released time." Lehi students from grades seven to twelve were invited to participate in this Seminary program. From 1908-16 the Lehi Pavilion (1989 site of the Rodeo Grounds) had been used for high school gymnasium activities. After this building was demolished, the Smuin Dancing Academy (now the Victorian Apart- ments on the northwest corner of Center and Second North) was used for these functions. From the earliest days of Lehi High, the school had used the Lehi Tabernacle for an auditorium. In June 1930 the school board purchased $7,500 worth of property south of the high school from Sidney Gilchrist, Joshua and Christie Whitman, and George and Lucy Whitman. Bids on a fifty-by-ninety-foot auditorium were let to contractor W. W. Dickerson ($16,672.72), and plumber George Nuttall ($4,490). This new addition, completed in December 1930, had a well-designed stage on the east end. The auditorium with a seating capacity of 481 hosted hundreds of school functions, stage productions, and public assemblies. Prior to 1930 First North Street intersected the present athletic field south of the Primary and Grammar Schools. At this time Block 40 between First North and the business district on the south contained, in addition to the Memorial Building and Carnegie Library, the city jail, pioneer adobe homes of William Clark, Paulinus H. Allred, and Joseph Andreason, and property of Jane S. Lewis, Christopher Hackett, and Charles and Julia Gurney. The 1 August 1929 Lehi Sun announced that the combined efforts of Lehi City officials, Lions Club members, and Dr. F. D. WorltonLehi's representative on the Alpine School Boardhad resulted in the purchase of the property to be used as an athletic field. In addition to the $3,125 authorized by the school board for property purchase, $750 was alloted for materials. City and school officials agreed at this time to close First North between Center and First West so the athletic field could contain a football field surrounded by an oval track. The city also decided to demolish its old jail and build a new facility on the south end of the Memorial Building. Wednesday, 7 May 1930, was declared a city holiday for clearing off the new athletic field site in preparation for the Black Hawk Encampment scheduled to coincide with Lehi's "Utah Beet Sugar Days" (12-15 August). More than a hundred businessmen, Lions Club members, national guardsmen, and high school students joined city crews in removing the old houses, jail, and two large rows of historic poplar trees which had beeQ planted in 1882. In 1931 the first of two lighted tennis courts on the school property was constructed by the school distriC$ from funds donated by students, the Lions Club, the city, and the school board. The second court was coJIl'r pleted during the summer of 1934 through joint effortl of the school board, Federal Emergency Relief AdmiJta istration (F.E.R.A.), and Lions Club. These courts, addition to hosting many exciting tennis matches, wedS also used for roller skating activities by hundreds 01 children. Numerous memorable dances under summCfl time stars have also graced these courts. m BANDS AND ORCHESTRAS On the evening of 4 February 1882 the Brass Band organized Lehi's first torch-light parade. Despite the frigid weather and cold mouthpieces of the instruments, citizens warmed to the incessant barrage of brass and the thunder of the bass drum. The affair was a prelude to a benefit concert in the Music Hall for their respected leader Alfred Fox. s Minutes of the band, which at one time were in the possession of James M. Kirkham, noted that on the Twenty-fourth of July 1882 the group provided patriotic cadenzas for the Pioneer Day celebration at the Robert Gilchrist Grove on State Street. On 25 November the band's lively renditions made the Lehi MIA Fair a red-letter day. Minutes for 1883 indicate that practice sessions were moved to the Northeast [Ross] Schoolhouse-a building used for a variety of community functions. Minutes for 15 August 1884 outline the group's sponsorship of an excursion to Black Rock on the south shore of Great Salt Lake. The revenue from the trip was shared with co-host Utah Central Railroad. The turnover of the Brass Band was surprisingly low. Of the twelve 1871 members eight were still tooting their horns in 1880. In addition, Prime Evans, Robert Fox, James B. Gaddie, George Goates, Hyrum Kirkham, James M. Kirkham, Henry Lewis, William Racker, Samuel Southwick, S. J. Taylor, Thomas Taylor, and M. T. Vaughan later joined the organization. John Hasenfratz served the band as long-term color bearer and Joseph Goates and James Kirkham were the organization's teamsters. 6 Besides the enthusiasm of Brass Band members, regular practice was essential to producing melodious sound. An 1887 reference to the group which reported it was "very much improving both in selections and the execution of their music" leads one to believe that a few sour notes must have been produced on previous occasions. After a record of the band's excursion to Garfield Beach on 11 May 1889 the minutes stopped. It is quite likely that the Lehi Brass Band became history at this point, as the Silver Band seems to be the only group mentioned in public records. 7 Lebi Silver Band In March 1887 the YMMIA Silver Band, under the leadership of Joseph Kirkham, was formed in the Lehi City Hall. Charter members of the group were Andrew B. Anderson, Thomas Clark, Andrew Fjeld, Daniel Fowler, David Jones, Jack Jones, George Goates, William Goates, Samuel I. Goodwin, Charles Gray, James M. Kirkham, Joseph Kirkham, Joseph H. Kirkham, Franz Salzner, George A. Smith, John Y. Smith, Isaac Taylor, Samuel Taylor, Thomas A. Taylor, William T. Taylor, and Walter Webb. Though the band was motivated by a Mormon Church youth group, it was intended initially as a polit- 309 ical organization - to promote the cause of "bimetallism." From 1792 the United States Treasury issued both gold and silver coins. In 1834 silver was fixed at one-sixteenth the value of gold. But from 1834 until 1873 the world prices of silver were higher than this Treasury ratio. Consequently silver bullion had ready commercial value and considerable coinage was melted for resale. To prevent this Congress disallowed the coinage of silver dollars from the beginning of 1873. In the late 1870s huge quantities of silver began to originate from western mines, including Utah's, and the price of the metal dropped well below the old sixteento-one ratio. The silver market plummeted, and brokers howled in anger. Bimetallism became the rallying cry of the inflationists. They argued that if the government coined all U.S. silver at sixteen to one "the amount of money in circulation would be increased, prices would go up, the yoke of debt would be less galling and there would be a sure market at fixed prices for silver." This proposal made good political sense as well, since it would attract votes in mining areas. 8 Besides tooting their horns for bimetallism, during the 1888 "Sagebrush Democracy" fervor the Lehi Silver Band traveled to every city in Utah County drumming up support for ambitious young politicians such as Samuel R. Thurman and J. L. Rawlings who wished to make names for themselves. The band also participated in other politicking. The 7 July 1892 Lehi Banner reported that on the previous Saturday the Democrats were out in full force cheering for U.S. presidential candidate Grover Cleveland. They began to gather at the 0.& R. G. depot on Main and Fourth West at sunset. The Silver Band struck up one lively tune after another to attract a crowd. As soon as darkness fell, the largest torch-light procession in Lehi's history paraded about town behind the Silver Bandwagon and its exuberant musicians. The boys in the band originally purchased their own instruments from the William Grant Music Store in American Fork. Practices were held weekly under the leadership of Alfred Fox, director of the Brass Band. Band member A. B. Anderson later recalled that some of the budding musicians were "routed to the cow barns" until they worked out the frightful squeaks, wheezes, and caterwauls of their instruments. 9 It was not long, however, until the band members were marching the streets of Lehi making pleasantsounding music. One of their first chances to perform publicly was when polygamists Jim and George Kirkham came home from a six-month stint in the territorial prison. George wrote in his 22 August 1887 diary that upon arriving at the train depot the Silver Band, led by his younger b'rother Joseph, "played in honor of our faithfulness." The following month a newspaper reference to the eighteen-piece band noted that it was making rapid strides. "We expect to see them rank 316 CIVIC SERVICE nature in its work but never to disturb it. If thus properly educated, let her be commissioned of the Priesthood of the Most High. This way only beloved Sisters undertake ~he dutiful and responsible work, and I can promise you, In the name of God that his divine blessing will rest down u~on . you and your sure reward will await you, not only in this life but through all eternities. 6 signed the petition opposing compulsory innoculation. "The ~eople of Le?i," the paper exclaimed, "are very much m accord WIth George W. Winterburn Ph.D., M.D. who says in a work entitled 'The Value of Vaccination' ": Vaccinia permanently impairs the integrity of the body.... A man once ill is more vulnerable for every other ill, and Physicians Though the dawn of scientific advancement was beginning to break in the East the health of Western communities like Lehi was perpetually threatened by poor s~nitation. Potable water was obtained from irrigation dItches and surface wells - both common mediums of dangerous microbes. Outhouses were often situated near water sources. Slops and decaying vegetable matter were o~ten thrown into the streets where, along with the droppmgs of wandering animals, they drew clouds of flies and other vermin. Few houses had screens to keep out mosquitoes and other insects. And nearly everybody suffered chronically from malaria - called the ague or mountain ail. In the absence of public health precautions, epidemics were inevitable. Time after time Lehi was plagued by childhood illnesses such as measles, scarlet fever, chicken pox, and mumps. Less frequently, though more ~larmingly, the town was beset by diphtheria, whoopmg cough, typhoid fever, and smallpox. The coming of the railroad in 1869 improved communication with the East and lessened Utah's isolation. Prejudice against doctors slowly faded as primary dependence on faithhealing gave way to improved scientific methods. Despite the proven value of smallpox vaccination, an incident in Lehi history demonstrated that the town had not yet fully come of age medically. During one week in late 1900 nineteen cases of the dreaded disease were reported in the community. The State Board of Health issued an order, implemented by the local Board of Health, that all children must be vaccinated or prevented from attending school. The Lehi School Board (W. S. Evans, S. I. Goodwin, and J. B. Gaddie) initially refused to honor the decree, but relented under threat of prosecution . A mass meeting was held on 17 January 1901 to protest the Board of Health's intimidation. A petition to the state legislature was drafted which read: We the people of Lehi ... [are] opposed to compulsory vaccination as not being a sure preventive to smallpox and believing it to be an infringement of our rights and personal liberty and also believing vaccination to be a propagator of many diseases and suffering and often death .... We therefore petition your honorable body to take such action by appropriate legislation that will secure us against compulsory vaccination. The Lehi Banner was unashamedly anti-vaccination. In a 24 January 1901 editorial the newspaper proudly reported that more than a thousand Lehi citizens had no man nor any assemblage of men, no matter by what name called, nor with power vested, have the right to violate by force the physical integrity of another human being .... The question is not closed . .. and we who h.ave patiently studied its history and results, will never be Silenced until every compulsory vaccination law is swept away and sanitation recognized as the only scientific protective. 7 Though the McMillan Bill defeated compulsory vaccination, much damage resulted from people's sceptical views on mass innoculation. Lehi physicians were still fighting that position two decades later when two cases of smallpox were discovered in the schools. Discussing the importance of quarantine, Dr. Fred Worlton pleaded that "if the people will forget the old fear about vaccination and realize that vaccination for Small Pox is a sure and safe means of preventing the disease we can rid the city of Small Pox in a very short time." Within two years virtually every citizen in Lehi had been vaccinated and today the disease has been essentially eradicated from the face of the earth.8 Lehi native Frederick Daniel Worlton, a 1912 graduate of Chicago's Rush Medical College, was not the town's first physician. Early written references list several doctors who made periodic trips to pioneer Lehi, including Dr. Joseph Smith Wing (Springville), Dr. Roberts (Provo), and Dr. Pike (Provo). Isaac W. Fox, listed as a physician in the 1879-80 Utah Gazetteer, is Lehi's first doctor of record. Dr. Thomas S. Wadsworth maintained a practice here from 1881-89. Dr. Calvin L. Seabright, "physician, surgeon, and druggist," operated a saloon in connection with his Lehi Drug Store before selling the business to David Ellingson in the mid-1890s. The doctor then concentrated solely on his medical practice and with satchel in hand could be seen on the go day and night to the homes of the sick. In addition to dispensing medication, Dr. Seabright delivered hundreds of babies with the help of competent midwives. He was also appointed Lehi's first Quarantine Physician in 1896. Along with Mayor Mosiah Evans and Hyrum L. Baker, Seabright served on the town's first Board of Health. Whenever the outbreak of a contagious disease occurred in a home a scarlet quarantine flag was raised on the premises. The specific city ordinance ruled that "It shall be unlawful for any person or persons suffering from measles, whooping cough, chicken pox, or small pox to leave such premises after the discovery of such disease, until fullY' recovered, and until quarantine thereon has been laW" fully removed."9 330 CIVIL SERVICE provide companionship and pleasure for its members, or it may be set up to furnish clubmen with such benefits as life, accident, and health insurance. The Ancient Order of United Workmen (A.O.U.W.), founded by John Upchurch in 1868, was the first fraternal society in the United States to pay substantial insurance death benefits to a deceased member's family. Many fraternal organizations are secret lodges with unusual names, passwords, ceremonies, and initiation rites. Lehi has had at least three such groups. An A.O.U.W. lodge was established in the Lehi Commercial and Savings Bank (206 East State) as early as 1895. The following year when Louis Garff built a two-story frame building at 162 West Main, the upper part became a lodge room for the Independent Order of Odd Fellows (I.O.O.F.) and the Knights of Pythias. The Odd Fellows remained there only briefly before moving to the former A.O.U.W. lodge rooms in the Commercial Bank building. When Bert Merrihew completed his large two-story drug store building (98 West Main) in 1901 the second floor became the new quarters for both the Odd Fellows and Modern Woodmen of the World . The last reference to a fraternal order in Lehi was in the fall of 1903, when the local newspaper announced that the Odd Fellows were fixing up a hall in the second story of the Ross Block (80 West Main).5 Black Hawk Indian War Veterans "Forced by [the] starvation of his people," as he put it, Chief Black Hawk led numerous Ute tribesmen on a series of raids on Mormon settlements in 1865-67. The Black Hawk War resulted in the loss of 5,000 head of cattle, ninety settlers and militiamen, and untold numbers of Indians. Of the more than 2,500 Utah militiamen called to active duty, thirty-six were from Lehi. 6 On 22 August 1894 the first annual encampment of Black Hawk veterans, attended by 2,000 people, was held at Holdaway's Grove in Provo. 7 Although more than a dozen Lehi men and their wives attended the Provo function, the Lehi Post of the State Encampment of Utah was not organized until 31 January 1903, when a group met in the Lehi City Hall. Charter officers of the organization included Captain D. W. Thomas, Lieutenant T. F. Trane, Adjutant James Kirkham, Quartermaster William Bone, and Chaplain John Worlton. The group remained inactive from 1909 until 1 August 1929, when a reorganization took place. The new name became the "Sons and Daughters of Pioneers and Indian War Veterans of the State of Utah." New officers of Lehi's Post 13 were Captain Joseph Anderson, First Lieutenant James H . Gardner, Second Lieutenant Sadie Trinnaman, and Secretary and Treasurer Blanche Roberts. This group was responsible for coordinating the 12-15 August 1930 state Black Hawk Encampment (on the site of the new city athletic field west of the Memorial Building) held in connection with Lehi's Sugar Day cele- bration. Since then several state Black Hawk Encampments have been held in Lehi, usually at Wines Park in connection with the Lehi Roundup . The Lehi post again became inactive in the 1960s. Lehi Commercial Club Whenever businessmen have been reasonably free to carryon trade, they have formed commercial and industrial organizations for various purposes. On 22 May 1905 Abel J. Evans, Andrew Fjeld, Charles Friel, James Fyffe, S. I. Goodwin, M. W. Ingalls, James M. Kirkham, Henry Lewis, Alex Piper, W. E. Racker, John Roberts, S. W. Ross, Dr. Robert Steele, Dr. W. M. Stookey, and George Webb met in the Lehi Commercial and Savings Bank and organized the Lehi Commercial Club. The purpose of the club was to foster the business interests of Lehi, encourage new industry, advertise local products, and furnish social diversion. By the time the group incorporated, additional club members included Parley Austin, Joseph S. Broadbent, J. E. Cotter, John F. Cutler, Morgan Evans, W. S. Evans, James H. Gardner, Mr. Green, George Hammer, Robert Howard, Edward Karren, Homer Kendall, William Knight, J. H. Manderfield, A. C. Pearson, Nate Rockhill, O. A. Slade, John Y. Smith, J. E. Standring, S. J. Taylor, T. J. Wadsworth, Dr. Westphal, J. H. Wootton, Thomas Webb, and S. G. Wells. The first order of business for the Commercial Club was appointing a committee to meet with the Denver, Rio Grande Railway to encourage the construction of a spur near the depot. During the second meeting a secret ballot was held for electing a board of governors, and George Austin (president), John Y. Smith, and W. M. Ingalls were selected to serve one-year terms. A. J. Evans, S. I. Goodwin, James H. Gardner and W. M. Stookey were elected to two-year terms. During the 19 June 1905 meeting nine committees were formed: Admission and Grievances, Finance and Auditing, House and Property, Reception, Rules, Manufacture and Industry, Ways and Means, Laws and Legislation, and Good Roads (Irrigation and Entertainments were added later). The group was successful in bringing several important industries to Lehi, including the Agricultural College Central Experimental Farm (1906), Mount Pickle Factory (1906), and the Lehi Mill and Elevator Company (1906). Club members also sent a train car of supplies to earthquake-devastated San Francisco in 1906. Perhaps the most important undertaking of the Commercial Club, however, was the groundwork it laid for establishing the Lehi Waterworks (1907-1909). Additional interests and involvements of the group over the years included the pumping station at the mouth of the Jordan River, extending Lehi School District boundary lines to Pelican Point (to include the proposed town of Bostonia - "the town that never was"), an interurban railroad, Redpath Lyceum Bureau Lec- 392 TRANSPORTATION Eighty Lehi citizens rode two cars to the Salt Lake Temple on 12 March. Those who made that historic round trip included Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Evans, Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Gardner, Dr. and Mrs. W. T. Hasler, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Lewis, Mr. and Mrs. E. H. Davis, Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Peterson, Mr. and Mrs. Victor Mason, Mr. and Mrs. Elisha Peck, Jr., Mr. and Mrs. Levi Phillips, Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Bushman, Mr. and Mrs. Eli Kendall, Mr. and Mrs. W. W. Clark, Mr. and Mrs. S. I. Goodwin, Mr. and Mrs. L. A. Olmstead, Mr. and Mrs. Parley Austin, Mr. and Mrs. Enos Jackson, Mr. and Mrs. Jone Bone, Mr. and Mrs. J. N. Butt, Mr. and Mrs. James Kirkham, Mr. and Mrs. Walter Woffinden, Mr. and Mrs. M. B. Bushman, Mr. and Mrs. William E. Evans, Mr. and Mrs. Enoch Russon, Mr. and Mrs. John Bone, Mr. and Mrs. Heber C. Webb, Mrs. Andrew Fjeld, Mrs. Annie Mayberry, Mrs. Heber Allred, Mrs. Thomas Russon, Mrs. Emma Briggs, Mrs. Annie Bone, Miss Rachel Gurney, Miss Sybyl Winn, Mrs. John Heldquist, Mrs. Sarah Kirkham, Mrs. Mary Kirkham, Mrs. Richard Richey, Mrs. Joseph Wanlass, Mrs. George Russon, Mrs. T. F. Kirkham, Mrs. Arthur Bradder, Mrs. J. J. Gill, Mrs. John Street, Mrs. John Stoker, Mrs. Mary Winn, Mrs. Jennie St. Joer, Mrs. Suel Zimmerman, Mr. W. F. Gurney, Mrs. B. W. Brown, Mr. Fred Merrill, and Mr. Ad Hunger.26 On 23 March regular daily service began between Salt Lake and American Fork with intermediate stops at Adams, Taylorsville, Granger, Bennion, West Jordan, South Jordan, Riverton, Bluffdale, Jordan Narrows, Kirkham (Jordan River), and Lehi. Until the line was completed to Provo the cars were gasoline operated. In April crews began installing electric poles along each side of the track in Lehi. The 25 July 1914 Lehi Banner noted that on the first run of the electric service passenger cars could go no farther than American Fork on the "juice from the Granger substation." Later in the day electricity from the Lindon substation powered a car to Provo. "The Big Red Cars," with gilt trimmings, were sixtytwo feet long and nine feet wide. Decorated with mahogany interior trimmings and leather upholstered seats, each unit had a smoking compartment, drinking fountain, steam heat, electric lights, overhead racks for storage, and a Pullman-type rear vestibule with folding gate. Each unit was equipped with multiple control systems whereby a car could supply its own power or be coupled into a train. The crew, normally consisting of a motorman, conductor, and brakeman, transported Lehi passengers to downtown Salt Lake City in seventythree minutes. 27 The Lehi depot for the Salt Lake & Utah Railroad, erected in July 1914 on the southwest corner of Third North and First West, was an exact duplication of the Pleasant Grove station. The pre-fabricated cement building, thirty-two feet wide and fifty feet long, was built in Salt Lake City and shipped to Lehi in sections. The cement slabs, weighing as much as five tons, were lifted in place by a crane that a local newspaper reporter thought worked "almost as intelligent as a human being."28 The northeast corner of the completed depot housed an eighteen-by-eighteen-foot waiting room with double doors opening both to the north and east. The baggage and express room were in a fourteen-by-eighteen-foot room in the northwest corner. The ticket office, between the waiting room and the baggage room, projected six feet farther north than the rest of the building. On each side of the ticket office and in front of the waiting and baggage rooms were two porches six feet wide. The first agent, Arthur Kirkham, lived with his family in three rooms south of the baggage area, and men's and women's toilet facilities were south of the waiting room. The entire west end of the building was a wide cement platform and porch for unloading and receiving freight. Living in the Interurban station proved to be a problem for Agent Kirkham. In a 26 February 1916 letter "To The Public" he described what it was like to dwell in a "hang out" for rowdy youth. "In several cases," he noted, the officers have been called on to break up "drunken concerts" and clean the place out. On some occasions ... I find the ashes allover the floor, litter scattered around, the walls marred, tobacco juice spit everywhere, cigarette stumps, and in some instances, even worse. Besides this, my family's sleep is disturbed with their unseemly noises and filthy stories, and I am sorry to say that young girls are often mixed up with young men in the trouble, and spend most of the night in the waiting room. Despite the unruly youth, the Orem Line was immensely popular both as a passenger and freighting road. Editor Will Ross claimed in the 25 July 1914 Lehi Banner, a day after passenger service was initiated, that "the interurban cars are getting 98 per cent of the traffic between here and Salt Lake City, and will get the other 2 per cent when the road is electrified." Though passengers could purchase tickets for each trip, frequent riders of the line were given financial incentive to purchase "mileage books." In 1914 a five-hundredmile book sold for $11.25 (2.25<1: per mile) while a thousand-mile book sold for $20.00 (2<1: per mile). Mileage books for school children in 1933 noted the low rate of 1.25<1: per mile. A table of "passenger revenue increases" published by the Salt Lake & Utah Railroad in the 11 November 1920 Lehi Sun was impressive: 1914 •...••....... 100070 1915 ............. 275% 1916 ............. 383% 1917 ............ .459% 1918 ............ .496% 1919 ............. 573% C.

Goodwin House, Lehi, Utah County, UT Narrative Description The Samuel and Olena Goodwin house lies on a corner lot in one of the oldest developed sections of Lehi. It is surrounded by homes of similar age, ~though the Goodwin house is .one of the largest houses in the area. ~Built in 1896, the house was originally a one story, cross-wing, Victorian eclectic style house, as evidenc ~ by an 1898 Sanborn Map of Lehi . It stood west of a house built by Samuel Goodwin's grandfather. Original windows topped with leaded glass transoms remain in the original portion of the house . By 1907 the house was expanded with a large addition to the west. Part of this addition was a prominent one story circular turret on the southwest corner of the house. The roof of the house was replaced by a hipped roof with flared, overhanging eaves. One -over-one double hung windows probably replaced the original windows on the house at the time of the addition. The 1922 Sanborn Map of Lehi shows that the Goodwin house had by then achieved its present form, with a rear kitchen el added to the north side of the house. A large porch stretches across the front and north sides of the house. The porch is supported by paired Tuscan-style columns , one of many classical details the Goodwins added to the house. Another is the circular vent in the pedimented gablet above the main entrance to the house, on the south facade. The gablet projects through the roof, as do several other dormer windows. Two brick chimneys crown the ridges of the asphalt-shingled roof . A small brick kitchen addition on the north side of the house was constructed in the 1920s. A shed roofed porch projects from the addition ' s east side. The house remains in the hands of its second owners, who bought it from the Goodwin family in 1946. They have maintained the exterior in its historic form . The interior of the house, with its six bedrooms, has also been similarly maintained. Historic outbuildings on the property no longer remain , however. The home of Goodwin ' s grandfather, located east of the house, was demolished by 1922 . A wood frame stable located northeast of the house and built between 1898 and 1907 was demolished at some time after the historic period. In the place of these buildings are mature gardens. -X- See continuation sheet CtIIl No. 10024-0018 NPS Form 10-900- . utah WOrdPerfect 5.1 Format (Revised Feb. 1993) United States Department of the Interior National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Continuation Sheet Samuel I. and Olena J. Goodwin House, Lehi, Utah County, UT Narrative Statement of Significance '~'f\\51'O ') The Samuel I. and Olena J . Goodwin House at 80 West 400 North in Lehi is nominated as part of the "Historic and Architectural Resources of Lehi, Utah" Multiple Property Submittal. As outlined in the Multiple Property Submittal, it is a historically significant example of the houses associated with the growing prosperity of Lehi in the late 19th and early 20th-6entury. These buildings reflect the growing prosperity and sophistication that the arrival of the railroad (in 1872) ~t~ and other links to communities outside Utah brought to Lehi. The arrival of the ~J Q0 rail road in Lehi gave access to wi der markets for Lehi' s goods and produce, 1eadi ng, ~.l~J\ in part, to a period of explosive growth in Lehi around the turn of the twentieth ~(> c\- , ~ 'J1" 0 century . Industri es such as the Utah Sugar Company Factory, and commerci a1 ~~ ~~-.enterprises such as The People's Cooperative Mercanti ~Institution expanded and prospered. Easy access to the railroad in Leh~~a ;major factor in this growing ~\ prosperity, especially for merchants such as ~amuel Goodw~, the builder of this house. In contrast to Lehi 's early homes, wh ~c~ere-~ple, utilitarian buildings most often constructed of locally produced materials, the Goodwin house was constructed of fired brick . Contact with the outside world brought awareness of popular architectural styles to Lehi. Buildings such as the Goodwin House, with their incorporation of current nationally popular architectural styles, were the result of such awareness. The 1890s were an expansive decade in Lehi. The leading development of the decade, and perhaps the most important industry in Lehi 's history, was the Utah Sugar Company Factory, the first of several such structures built by the company throughout Utah and Idaho. Started in 1890 at Mulliner's Pond, the factory employed many local people and continued to do so until its close in 1924.1 Due to the factory, together with the statewide boom of mining, transportation and agricultural industries, Lehi experienced great prosperity in the 1890s. The construction of many fine commercial, industrial, governmental, educational, religious and residential buildings during the Victorian Era attests to its healthy urban nature. In this phase of Lehi 's development, larger, more elaborate houses were more prevalent. These buildings reflect the growing prosperity and sophistication that the arrival of the transcontinental railroad and other links to outside communities brought to Utah towns such as Lehi. Not only did Lehi 's citizens have the financial 1Van Wagoner, 238-247. means to build larger, more stylish homes, they were more aware of the popular architectural styles through contact with the outside world. The Samuel and Glena Goodwin House i s a significant example of this trend . 1 ,I, o 7- \ ....,Cl.. ? / 0 so '" D r" ,001\ CUl.A-" iI ~vV ' V1 +- J'\k I'l~ ~ ~ r vJOO Ol The GooOW1 n house was built in~6 on a lot once part of Samuel Goodwin's grandf(ther's pioneer propeGtY. Several additions and alterations were made to the house until it reached its ~ resent form in the early 1920s. Samuel I. Goodwin was a native of Lehi, born in 186~is future wife, Glena J. Anderson, was born in Salt Lake City in 1872. Samuel and Glena , were married in 1891 in Manti. In 1903, Samuel Goodwin became manager, secretary and treasur:er of the Lehi People's Co-operative Mercantile Institution; he 'l e-.m .aTne(f 'irl ~ posJ1i on for ,~ years. ~_ LSL~tM v{M.' l clc:.A '1.-.-'? '---- - ~ The cooperative mercantile system, an integral part of the economic history of Utah, was first put into practice in Lehi. Israel Evans, son of Mormon Bishop David Evans, visited a co-operative mercantile in England while on a mission for the Mormon Church from 1853-57. Upon his return, he advocated for such a mercantile in Lehi. The outgrowth of this, the Lehi Union Exchange opened in 1868. 3 Within the larger framework of the LOS Church, Lorenzo Snow, then a member of the Church's governing body; the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, was advocating a similar cooperative system. The co-op system was significantly expanded during 1868. In that year, Zion 's Cooperative Mercantile Institution (Z.C.M.I.) was organized at Sa ~ Lake City. Lehi 's Union Exchange become a branch of the Z.C .M.I. organization ·. ~The early success of Lehi 's cooperative system was destined to be short-lived, however . As was the case in other Utah communities, the cooperative ideal fell victim to increasing competition from private concerns . Completion of the transcontinental railroad in 1869 was an event which undoubtedly contributed to the demise of the cooperative system (which had been formally launched less than one year earlier). It also exerted strong influences upon the subsequent course of Lehi 's history. The coast-to-coast transportation system ended Utah's geographic isolation. It made goods from the outside more readily available, created new markets for Utah-produced commodities, stimulated commerce and the development of~ ew industries, and brought in more settlers together with more outside influences.Y.\ In 1871, the Lehi People's Cooperative Mercantile Institution (People's Co-op) was organized to take advantage of the railroad's arrival in Lehi, and to compete with the established Lehi Union Exchange .4 Located on North State Street near the new railroad depot, the People's Co-op flourished, and indeed soon drove the Union Exchange out of business in 1880. By the time of Samuel Goodwin's arrival as manager of the Co-op in 1903, the company was Lehi's largest merchant. Two branches, the "uptown" and the "downtown" locations, were supplemented by clothing, furniture, farming implements, livery , lumber, coal, shoes and harness departments. In 1904 the People's Co-op sold their downtown branch and concentrated their resources into their uptown location, at 151 East State Street. In 1912, the Co-op bought the adjacent Union Hotel, which the company remodeled into a movie theater in 1914. 2Biographical information for Samuel and Olena Goodwin is taken from Thomas F. Kirkham, ed., ~ Centennial History 1850-1950 (including reprint of Hamilton Gardner's History of Lehi [Salt Lake City: Deseret News, 1913])(Lehi, Utah: Lehi Free Press Publishing Co., 1950), 758-759. 3Van Wagoner, 123-124. 4Van Wagoner, 127. ~ /7 The Goodwin family was among those who directly benefitted from the prosperity in Lehi U~ thiS period. During Goodwin ' s tenure as manager , the People ' s Co-op thrived. Numerous additions and alterations made to ~~hbuse up until the early 1920s reflect Goodwin ' s success. Another piece of evidence of his (and Olena's) increasing prominence in the community were their civic and religious positions . Samuel was the Bishop of the LOS Lehi Second Ward from 1917 until 1937. From 1938, ~ he served as High Councilor in the Lehi Stake . He also was a member of the Lehi . kr~) City Council (1906-1909), president of the Alpine School Board, and vice-president lJlr~L of the State Bank of Lehi. Olena was a member of the LOS Alpine Stake Relief Society Board from 1917-1928. When the Lehi Stake was organized in 1928 , Olena became the first counselor of the Lehi Stake Relief Society . She served in this position until 1938 . This group of Relief Society leaders remained close after their terms in office , and held a semi-annual social which Olena attended regularly up unt i 1 her death ~ Sru0t<s SxLooe \ ~&t~ ) Co r I In 1926 , Samuel Goodwin left the People's Co-op to start his own mercantile, Goodwin ' s Golden Rule . The store was located in the west half of the former downtown location of the People's Co-op and was associated (like all Golden Rule stores) with the J.C. Penney Company. Goodwin ran the store until his retirement in 1946. At that time the Goodwins moved to Inglewood , California. Olena Goodwin died in California in 1950; Samuel Goodwin died in 1963. The family sold the house to LeRoy and Edna Gammon. Mrs . Gammon continues to reside in the house . -X- See continuation sheet ") h.

Martin Deputy State Historic Preservation Officer and Prograrr: Manager Preserving and Sharing Utah's Past for the Present and Future SUMMARY OF UTAH HISTORIC PRESERVATION TAX CREDIT The 1993 Utah State Legislature passed the Economic Incentivesfor Historic Preservation bill which created a tax credit for historic residential rehabilitations. The basic requirements of the historic preservation tax credit are explained below. What is the Utah Historic Preservation Tax Credit? A 20 percent non-refundable tax credit for the rehabilitation of historic buildings which are used as owner-occupied residences or residential rentals. Twenty percent of all qualified rehabilitation costs may be deducted from taxes owed on your Utah income or corporate franchise tax. Example: $22,000 in qualified rehabilitation costs = $4,400 state income tax credit Does My Building Qualify? Buildings listed in the National Register of Historic Places which, after rehabilitation, are used as a residence(s) qualify. The credit is not available for any property used for commercial purposes including hotels or B&Bs (bed and breakfasts). The building does not need to be listed in the National Register at the beginning of the project, but a complete National Register nomination must be submitted when the project is fmished. The property must be listed in the National Register within three years of the approval of the completed project. What Rehabilitation Work Qualifies? The work may include interior or exterior repair, rehabilitation or restoration, including historic, decorative, and structural elements as well as mechanical systems. All proposed work must meet the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation and be approved by the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) before the work begins. Depending on the historic conditions and features, some examples of eligible work items include: • • • • repairing or upgrading windows rep ointing masonry repairing or replacing roofs new floor and wall coverings • • • • painting walls, trim, etc. refmishing floors, handrails, etc. new furnace, Ale, boiler, etc. electrical upgrades • • • • plumbing repairs and fixtures reconstructing historic porches compatible new kitchens reversing incompatible remodellings Necessary architectural, engineering, and pennit fees may also be included. The purchase price of the building, site work (landscaping, sidewalks, fences, driveways, etc.), new additions, work on outbuildings, and the purchase and installation of moveable furnishings or equipment (e.g., refrigerators, dishwashers, etc.) do not qualify for the credit. All of the work must meet the Standards or the tax credit cannot be taken on any portion of the work. A completed application should be submitted to the SHPO at least 15-30 days before beginning the project, along with photographs showing all areas of work (both interior and exterior) and any drawings or other technical infonnation necessary to completely understand the proposed project. How Much Money Must I Spend to Qualify? Total rehabilitation expenditures must exceed $10,000. (The tax credit applies equally to this first $10,000.) The purchase price of the building and any donated labor cannot be included. The project must be completed within 36 months of the SHPO's approval of the proposed rehabilitation work. Utah State Historic Preservation Office (Utah Division of State History), 300 Rio Grande, SLC, UT 84101-1182 3562 Phone (801) 533- Utah Historic Preservation Tax Credit Summary -- Continued When Can I Claim the Credit? The credit may be taken for the tax year in which the entire project was completed and the rehabilitation work and a National Register nomination form have been approved by the SHPO. (A certification number will be issued to the owner at that time). Credit amounts greater than the amount of tax due in that year may be carried forward up to five years. Are There Any Restrictions Placed on My Buildin~? The only restriction is that all work done to the building during the rehabilitation project, and for three years following the certification of the project, must meet the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation. Please consult with the State Historic Preservation Office if you have any questions. How do I Take the Tax Credit? The original completed and signed form TC-40H, Historic Preservation Tax Credit, must be attached to your initial state income tax return. This form will be provided by the SHPO when the completed project is approved. If you carryforward this tax credit, you must attach a copy of the completed form, with the new carryforward amount, to your tax return. Note that carryforward amounts must be applied against tax due before the application of any historic preservation tax credits earned in the current year and on a first-earned, first-used basis. Please consult with the State Tax Commission if you have any questions. Original records supporting the credit claimed must be maintained for three years following the date the return was filed claiming the credit.

Revised 9115194 SUMMARY OF FEDERAL REHABILITATION TAX CREDITS What are the Rehabilitation Tax Credits? There is a 20% Investment Tax Credit (ITC) available for rehabilitating historic buildings and a 10% ITC for renovating nonhistoric buildings constructed before 1936. In both instances the ITC is based on a percentage of the rehabilitation costs and does not include the purchase price. The tax credit applies to the building owner's federal income tax for the year in which the project is completed and approved. If it is not all needed in that year the ITC may be carried back 3 years or forward up to 15 years. Note: this is a tax credit not just a deduction. Example: 20% of a $50,000 rehabilitation = $10,000 tax credit Which Buildings Qualify? The historic rehabilitation tax credit (20%) is available for buildings listed in the National Register of Historic Places which, after renovation, are used for commercial or residential rental use. The nonhistoric tax credit (10%) is available for any pre-1936 building being used for commercial but not residential rental purposes. The work does not have to be reviewed for the 10% credit. Neither ITC is available for the rehabilitation of a private residence. What Lehabilitation Work Qualifies? Any work on the interior or the exterior of the building qualifies for the tax credit. Landscaping or new additions to the building do not qualify. The work on a historic building must be certified by the National Park Service. This is done by completing an application and submitting it to the National Park Service along with "before" and "after" photographs showing all work areas (interior and exterior). How Much Money Must be Spent in Qrder to Qualify for the ITC? The rehabilitation expenditures must exceed the greater of either the "adjusted basis" of the building or $5,000. "Adjusted basis" is the purchase price minus the value of the land minus any depreciation already taken by the current owner of the building plus any capital improvements. Example (recent purchase): $60,000 (purchase price) - $7,000 (land) = $53,000 (adjusted basis); rehabilitation expenses must exceed $53,000 Example (long-time ownership): $60,000 (purchase price) - $40,000 (depreciation) - $7,000 (land) + $5,000 (capital improvement) = $18,000 (adjusted basis); rehabilitation expenses must exceed $18,000 When Can a Rehabilitated Building Be Sold? A building must be kept at least five years in order to avoid any recapture of the tax credit by the federal government. The recapture amount ranges from 100% of the tax credit it the building is sold within the first year to 20% of the credit if it is sold within the fifth year. More Information?

Goodwin House at 80 West 400 North, will be considered by the Utah Board of State History for nomination to the National Register of Historic Places. The National Register of Historic Places is the federal government's official list of historic properties worthy of preservation. Listing in the National Register provides recognition and assists in preserving our Nation's heritage. Listing of a property provides recognition of its historic significance and assures protective review of federal projects that might adversely affect the character of the historic property. If the property is listed in the National Register, certain federal investment tax credits for rehabilitation and other provisions may apply. Listing in the National Register does not place limitations on the property by the federal government. Public visitation rights are not required of owners. The federal government will not attach restrictive covenants to the property or seek to acquire them. Enclosed please find a notice that explains, in greater detail, the results of listing in the National Register. It also describes the rights and procedures by which an owner may comment on or object to listing in the National Register. You are invited to attend the Board of State History meeting at which the nomination will be considered. The Board will meet on July 31 , 1998 at 2:00 p.m., in the Board Room of the former Denver and Rio Grande Depot located at 300 South Rio Grande (440 West), Salt Lake City. Should you have any questions about this nomination before the meeting, please contact Roger Roper of the Historic Preservation Office at 533-3561. Wilson G. Martin Deputy State Historic Preservation Officer and Program Manager Enclosure Preserving and Sharing Utah's Past for the Present and Future RIGHTS OF OWNERS TO COMMENT AND/OR OBJECT TO LISTING IN THE NATIONAL REGISTER OF HISTORIC PLACES Owners of private properties nominated to the National Register have an opportunity to concur with or object to listing in accord with the National Historic Preservation Act and 36 CFR 60. Any owner or partial owner of private property who chooses to object to listing may submit, to the State Historic Preservation Officer, a notarized statement certifying that the party is the sole or partial owner of the private property and objects to the listing. Each owner or partial owner of private property has one vote regardless of the portion of the property that the party owns. If a majority of private property owners object, a property will not be listed. However, the State Historic Preservation Officer shall submit the nomination to the Keeper of the National Register of Historic Places for a determination of eligibility of the property for listing in the National Register. If the property is then determined eligible for listing, although not formally listed, Federal agencies will be required to allow for the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation to have an opportunity to comment before the agency may fund, license, or assist a project which will affect the property (see below). If you choose to object to the listing of your property, the notarized objection must be submitted to Wilson G. Martin, Deputy State Historic Preservation Officer, 300 Rio Grande, Salt Lake City, Utah, 84101, before the Utah Board of State History meets to consider the nomination. Other comments regarding the nomination of this property should also be directed to Mr. Martin prior to the meeting date. A copy of the nomination and information on the National Register and the Federal and State tax provisions are available from the above address upon request. RESULTS OF LISTING IN THE NATIONAL REGISTER Eligibility for Federal tax provisions: If a property is listed in the National Register, certain Federal tax provisions may apply. The Tax Reform Act of 1986 revised the historic preservation tax incentives authorized by Congress in the Tax Reform Act of 1976, the Revenue Act of 1978, the Tax Treatment Extension Act of 1980, the Economic Recovery Tax Act of 1981, and Tax Reform Act of 1984, and as of January 1, 1987, provides for a 20 percent investment tax credit with a full adjustment to basis for the "substantial rehabilitation" of historic commercial, industrial, and rental residential buildings. (The former 15 percent and 20 percent Investment Tax Credits (ITCs) for rehabilitations of older commercial buildings are combined into a single 10 percent ITC for commercial or industrial buildings built before 1936.) The Tax Treatment Extension Act of 1980 provides Federal tax deductions for charitable contributions for conservation purposes of partial interests in historically important land areas or structures.
