POINTS UPWARD
SUCCESSFUL RAILROAD MAN
Is HE
PROMOTIONS COME RAPIDLY
His Friends Predict That He Will
Some Day Be at the Head
of the Southern
Pacific
PROMOTIONS COME RAPIDLY

When Robert H. Ingram tomorrow
morning enters upon the duties Of the
newly created position of general super
intendent Of the southern district of the
Southern Pacific, with supervision over
1000 miles of road, his friends are
hoping that it is only another step to-
ward that Of the railroads presi-
dency.
Old in the service, but not in years,
Robert Ingram once resolved that
there was not ahead of him the career
of a successful railroad man. He went
into business. After two years, like the
call Of the sea to the sailors ears, and
which the mariner finds irresistible,
railroading had him back in the harness
again.
Men who have worked under him say
Robert Ingram is a railroad man from
the ground up. BY the promotions
coming to him, it would seem that his
superiors realize the fact.
A Rapid Rise
There are few men who have spent
as few years in railroad life as Mr. In
grams twenty-nine years of service,
and gone higher than he has gone;
there are 100000 others who have
worked quite as long and are not SO
far advanced.
Superintendent Ingram, by birth a
Kentuckian, saw his first railroad SER
vice in the south when, in 1875, he be-
came a clerk in the general superin-
tendent's office of the Pullman COM
pany in Louisville.
He afterward became cashier for the
same company, serving in that capacity
for seven years. with headquarters in
st. Louis.
Following this, he became assistant
comptroller of the Louisville & Nash
vile railroad, and followed from this
position to that of assistant to the
roads president, Milton Fl. Smith.
Then in 1896 he resigned to go into
business for himself.
Goes With Hays
Two years later his friends smiled
when one day they heard that Ingram
was going with Charles M. Hays, pres
ident of the Grand Trunk railway of
Canada, and who afterward succeeded
c. p. Huntington as president of the
Southern Pacific. "It was only a ques-
ton Of time. anyway" they said,
Mr.. Ingram followed his chief to San
Francisco, where he spent year. aud
then was given the position of general
superintendent of the Los Angeles di-
vision of the Southern Pacific, to sue
ceed John A. Muir who resigned to
accept the presidency of the Los An
geles railway company.
That was In April, 1902. The an
nouncement a week ago, Of his appoint
ment to the general superintendency of
the southern district of the same road,
came as no surprise to the few who
knew changes were about to be made.
Mr.. Ingram has a wife and flve chill
dren. "a handful OF them." he says.

COUNCILMAN SMITH BACK
FROM BULLFROG DISTRICT
Says That GoldfieId and Vicinity Has
Wonderful Future as a
Mining Center

Councilman Smith of the Fifth ward
returned home from an extended trip
through the Goldfeld and Bullfrog min
ing district yesterday morning.
A month ago Mr.. Smith went into the
recently opened mining section to look
over various properties there in which
he is interested. He had to cover con-
siderable territory and for that reason
the trip was hard one.
Mr.. Smith declares that the district
he visited, in his estimation, will some
day be the greatest mining center of
the world, He also believes that the
development will be of great benefit to

 The St. Paul line k controlled by Rockefeller and is hostile to James j.. Hill, who tried to buy it before he took over the Burlington, The North western is the only great American railroad controlled by foreign stock holders. A majority of its stock is held abroad, mainly in England.
 The extension of these two roads to the Sound is considered to foreshadow an entire readjustment of traffic ar rangements in the Northwest when the lines are completed.

A Corn Festival.

1t is proposed that the glory of be celebrated in
festival at Chicago.
There is nothing the people of the great empire of the
middle west could celebrate with greater fitness.
To is due the credit for the prosperity, general wei
fare and happiness that bless fine region the
anywhere shines upon.
The far had It's gold later the other minerals and
cattle the north had its timber the south cotton the east
manufactures, but the middle has its corn and it is
enough for content.
Better than wealth Of mines timber, of any gift
that nature may bestow land has yielded to the
states where it grows riches almost beyond belief and
except where the righteousness of has reached
itself it has taken but little from the land where it has
grown.
Since the beginning it has been the foundation upon
which the empire of the middle west has been built and
it will continue to be the foundation the empire stead
lily grows in greatness of prosperity and plenty
In this vast, rich empire Corn is indeed king, and his
dominons extending.
His rule is of exact justice, melting out rewards in
proportion to intelligent labor.
To the ider and the bunger King Corn accords hunger
poveryt and discomfort but to the industrious and thrifty
he grants plenty and happiness.
No human monarch ruled with such memorable
law and exact justice and brought to his subjects such
riches and such development of all the virtues of industry
aspiration and providence has King Corn in his great
empire of the middle west.
Let be celebrated in great annual festival at the

He Invented an Alphabet of &c
Characters for the Cherokee
Tribe and It's the Most Perfect
System of Phonetics in the World

MUSCOGEE, l. T., Sept. 13.-Se-
quoyah will be the new state if In
dian Territory is admitted. This
appeals particularly to the Chero-
KEGS, for he was one of the great
est men of that race.
Sequoyah invented the Cherokee
alphabet. 1t comprises Sc charac-
tiers and is said to be the most per-
feet system of phonetics in the
world. 1t is claimed that a person
able to speak the Cherokee Ian
guage could in "a hours learn to
read anything printed in these
characters.
Sequoyah was born in Wills Val
ley, Ga, in 1868. In early life he
was a silversmith. He was self
taught. He began work on the
alphabet in 1909 and completed it
in 1921. He afterwards Joined the
Cherokees in this country The
first use made of his alphabet,
which was put in type form in
1925, was to print the laws of the
CherOkees and the new testament.
A paper published for many years
by the tribal government, and still
in existence, is printed half in En-
glish and half in Cherokee.
Sequoyah represented his tribe
on many important missions to
Washington. Congress gave him
