It places the smaller merchant, who does not own the store he occupies, at a great disadvantage as compared with the real estate owner; and he is constantly in a state of fear lest his profits should not cover his expenses.

It prevents him from opening legitimate branches of business which the public need, but which return only small profits, and tends generally to the centralization of trade in the hands of large firms. Surely there was never a city more cursed with high rents and heavy taxation than Salt Lake City. Main Street is the only street as yet of much account, and if an effort is made to extend the area of trade to adjoining streets, the curse of high rent follows and frustrates the design, for the men are broken and dispirited by their losses before the results are gained, and the public invited by combinations of businessmen to the new locations. In Main Street there is a small place about five feet in width, not worthy to be dignified by the name of a store, which rents at sixty dollars per month, and the place, too, is worth it, for the reason that the business carried on there cannot afford to be taken elsewhere. This matter of high rents is of general application.

One can scarcely find a house to rent at all in any convenient part of the city; and for a very ordinary tenement twenty dollars per month is asked. A workingman, earning perhaps, twelve to fifteen dollars per week, is by a considerate landlord, charged five dollars per week for a common dwelling house. ea.
