It is 'the fit· t fi i~g ~t up nil the modern improvements the terri~ry, and it is safe to say that the exam le o~ m~:i~Jt! us1.ness ~lock to be completed iu has had its effect on the plans not"only of the rp· . I o P so imposing nnd lofty a structua·o ·, atJOmmg property owners, but of nearly all who luwo . \ •. since begun to plan and erect . store buildin!!S all over the city I .B:o~hers themselves, A. E. Culmer beinc, th~ su1)ervisin('/ arch1·tec·t t was planned by the Culmer 0 orwi.nal d t 'th t' d' • In its interior arranc,ement it is o, 'an no WI S an mg the fact that it is entirely surrounded by brick walls except,o of course, the frnnt, eve1·y one of tho ap,irtu'J.ents, including the ba,;emeut, is well lightetl. It was scu.rcely completed befoa·o nearly every room in the building was occupied. The Oulmer Brothers have been in business here fot· ove1· twenty years, and during all that time have been ambitious to own a piece of business property on which they could erect a building according to their own ideas; but thefr incessant activities in the inauguration of industrial and other enterprises, many of which have been conducted during dull times under adverse circumstances, have prevented thefr realizing this particular ambition. .Less than two years ngo they bought the fiftyfour feet on which the Culmer block is now built, and it was the first transfer of real estate that bad been made in the neighborhood fo1· many years. To-clay the ground alone could be solJ fo1· $40,000 more than they paid for it. . On this they erected the building at a cost of nearly $70,000. The Culmer block contains ninety-two offices above the ground floor. The whole of.the building is fitted up with water, gas and electl'ic light, steam heat, patent ventilators, etc., and is brilliantly lighted throughout by a well-arranged system of skylights. Although it is as near fire-proof as any western building, ample precautions .have been taken against fi.l'e, hose and pipes being on every floor, fire-escapes at the rear, and an electric ala1·m by which a fire may be ·detected and located in its -incipiency. A handsome clock, Ho1vard movement, surmounts the top, its sweet-toned bell proclaiming the hour to every inhabitant. . Altogether, the Culmer block is one of the most imposing buildings in the city, and marks the rapid stl'ides that are being made on Fit-st South street, for, besides the improvements that have already beJn made in its vicinity, exea.vations are going on directly opposite for another fi. ve-story structure almost as large; Another important enterprise in which G. F. Culmer & Brothers are the principal owners, are the RudJystone quarries. These fine deposits of building-stone are located within a mile of the Union Pacific main tl'll.ct on the outskirts of the town of Morgan in Weber Valley, Utah. The At the request rnddysto 1e is finely beJded and crops out in malls from the mountain at the edge. of the rock company, the Union Pacific have made sul'veys and estimates for a spur, a mile and a thit-d in length, to connect the deposits with their main overland line at Weber station. Meanwhile, shipments will be made to Ogden and Salt Lake by teaming the t·ock to the station. In the several places that have been opened up, the stone proves to be of great variety and beauty, ranging from a. soft stone extremely easy to work, "kind" to the tool, yet compact and strong, to dense hard stone suitable for coping, door sills, etc., though more difficult to tool. In color, it ranges through deep . - chocolate to Qlazing red, through colors that·g,ive the name of "ruddystone" to the quarries. There are also some beautiful warm grays suitable for trimming, and which will harmonize well with the red in relief lines on a sto·ne front. These depo3its attracted the favorable notice of Prof. Clarence King in his geological explomtion of the 40th parallel, and he thus refers to 1- them in his report: "They (the chocolate and olive permo-carbonif'erous shales) are· directly overlaid by the reu triassic sandstones, estimated here to be from 800 to 1,000 feet in thickness. A specimen of this rock gave 94 per cent. of silica, alumina being the principal impurity, and scarcely a trace of lime, while the specimen that was analyzed from the Utah range contained 27 per cent. of carbonate of lime. The / beJding of these sandstones·is often extremely fine, especfa.lly in that portion which is quarried; some of the heavy beds are made of a finely striped sandstone of brick red and venetian-red color, banded with pale cream color and white stripes. The average dip of these beds is 70° to 75° eahtward. Dit·ectly over the triassic occur lime beus." The distance from Ogden to these quarries i., about 23 mile~, and from Salt Lake City about 60 miles.

An accurate en picture of a hotel often decides the tourist in choosing ·s st.OH ing places, and theJengtn of his stay. The Continental is one of the first-class l.ouses of Salt Lake, an in some espects the most desirable. It occupies .about two ,and three-fourths acres of roun , and dur1 0 e summer season the fountains, shrubs, flowers and ornaments in the g.rouncls cannot be duplicated in t I cit.rc and it becomes the favorite hotel to stop at..

This paper is regularly roail1::d to the Boar<ls of Trade find fiuaucial institutious throu~hout the United States, and bas accOmplisbed a wonderful pown of good in showing the advantages possessed hy this great rrerritory. 1'be brothers are the owners ot the handsome Culmer Block on 1st South street which is recog nized asaoarchitectnra.l beauty of the finest variety. It is a massive and eh1.borate structure five stories in hei~ht, and huilt of brick and stone. The eJegaot store room of this building is oc. cupied by the great dry izoods honse or R. K.

TbA brothers ha,.·esneot a.great deal of time and money in develop· ing the possibilites for the manufacture of Carbonate of Soda, from the snJphates of sod~ deposited in large quantities every winter on the shores of the great Salt Lake. The results of these experiments hav'=' proven the entire feasibility of tbe enterprise, but the magnitude of the nnclertaking is such that it will require the iuvestment of several hundred thousand dollars, and they are not y.-t prepared to devote their time ancl means to the development of this one of Utah's most important resources. The Calmer Bros. are gentlemen of llDUsual busineAs ability, possessed of characteristics of unquestionable honor and liber ality, which conpled with their well known enterprise have gainecl for them the respect of the community and confidence of the trade.

'l'b.e growth of aoy city depends in a large de,gree upon the character and extent of her business honses, and the quality aud amonnt of energy and vitality of the men .:iontrolling the same. No city in the world ever rose to a position of commercial superiority that did not owe the credit of a110h position to the men within her limits. A broad and liberal use of the talent that God h!LS so generously vouchsafed to man is the • Photo by Shiplo,r, on, comparatively in the dark, without one r11y of light to illuminate the semi-darkness of commercial poverty; yet to men who have the pluck nnll pert.inacity to hold on, there will come ere long, the bright golden sunshine of prosperity aml they will gather a harrest of shining dollara and better still, perpetuatea monument of honorable enterprise and grat.itude iu tbe hearts of mankind. TherP. are some grand enterprises in Salt J.nke. Enterprises that reft0{:t credit upon the city, and that redound to the honor of the origine.tora and projectors. There are bri~ht intelligent bnsinese. men within her territory that have, with a full faith in her fature, not only investt!<l their money in commercial pursuits, hut in addition, have erected costly and magnificent blocks which stand as a substantial guarant% of their confluence in the community which they have selected as a home. Such men ne these, are the ones who build np a city. They exemplify the old iulage that "actions 11pe11k lomler than worils" to its fullest extent and. are the most influential factors, iu all combinations that go to make up a great city. 'fhe gentlemen composing the firm, which heads this artfole, are men that Salt Lnke City may well be proud of. nn<l are types of the or<ler th Rt we have deecribed above.
