The Movement In
augurated by the Salt
Lake Commercial Club,
which has already as
sumed semi-national i'm
pertance.

~T-> HE widespread interest excited by
the announcement that the Salt
Lake Commercial club had inau-
gurated a movement looking to
combination Of Transmlsslsslpp inter-
ests, having Tor It's ultimate object the
diversion into western ways Of portion
OF the great sum Of money expended
IN foreign countries by American sight
seers, indicates that the thought was
at least timely Indeed 1t may safely
be said that the idea which found ex-
preston IN the clubs action. existed
IN the mind Of every patriotic American
who, being acquainted with the marvel
Gus scenic beauties, superb climatic
conditions and unsurpassed Industrial
opportunities OF his own country, OBJ
served with a feeling closely akin TO
disgust, the growing intensity Of the
European vacation fad.

Scenery as an Asset.

Aside, however from the sentiment OF
patriotism herein suggested there Ia
involved also the large question Of
self interest. Attractive scenery, as I
shall endeayor to prove later on, Is the
most valuable asset a community can
have, surprising in continuous and per-
manent returns the product Of fields and
mines. Assuming for the present pur-
poses Of this article, that this statement
is true. It follows that western rail-
roads, commercial organizations and
state governments are and should be
directly Interested In any movement
having FOR It's object the exploitation
Of that asset in which the west is so
surprisingly rich.
There is, however yet broader
point Of view from which to consider
this question. No great permanent
good can come to the west that docs
not benefit all the nation, and, there
fore, the effort to induce Americans 20
see their own country first, whatever
they may do afterwards, Is entitled
10 the support Of all America.

Two months ago Bert Bradley OF Find

old girl. while he was working on her
fathers lease. It was a case OF love at
first sight. but the father OF the young
girl objected to the match and ordered his
daughter to give up young Bradley. The
girl refused and the couple determined TO
elope.
over a week ago they set out for Find
lay. Neither had any money and so they
were compelled to walk all the way. The
father OF the girl telegraphed to Ffndlay
and the police finally located the girl. At
the station she talked freely.

rier. that seems to have been foreordained
to travel in q postal car and sit on piles
of mail bags. His name is Ownie-prob-
ably because nobody owns him-and his
home is on the mail trains and in the post

ton & Albany and the New London North
ern railroad
He keeps watch OF the mail bags. and
at whichever OF the great termini OF the
roads he happens to be, he rides with the
boys from the cars to the ONCE and from
the ONCE TO the cars. This Is his business;
during his four years OF life he has never
done any other. An idea OF the kind of
dog Ownie Is may be gathered from this
specimen lncident:
One night in Albany, after the unloading
of the mail car. he started to ride, as usual,
on the bags In the wagon, but when the
postoffice was reached he was not on board.
This was strange, for no temptation had
ever been strong enough 20 lure him from
his post.
The sacks were delivered. and as the men
called them over, one was found to be mis-
sins. The wagon driver hurried back TO
look along the streets. After searching
over good part OF his route he caught
sight Of Ownle in the gutter, wagging his
tail and sneezing in his queer way to be
recognized. The lost mail bag was there,
and he was sitting on 1t.

Busy Bees Turn Briganda.

Almost every variety OF crime COM
mitted by human beings is common with
insects. Even the honey bee, that pat
tern of honest toll" often yields to tempta-
ton. The distinguishing quality OF this
model insect, one that II shares with men,
is natural acquisitiveness. Without modi-
flying traits of character. either in men or
bees, IL is not strange that they sometimes
seek to acquire that which does not be-
long to them.
Without this love OF acquiring and OF
storing up what they possess, bees would,
of course. be of no more service to man
than are any other of the myriad swarms
Of winged insects. But bees are not fond
OF work for works sake, nor are they
ever restrained by moral considerations
from taking what they want wherever they
can find 1t.
They will frequently attack well-stocked
hives in masses. kill the sentinels and the
inhabitants, rob the hives and carry off
the provisions, After repeated enterprises
OF this description they acquire a taste
for robbery and violence, recruit whole
companies which become more and more
numerous and finally form regular colonies
Of brigand bees.
A stiil more curious fact regarding these
insects is that brigand bees can be pro-
duced artihcially by giving working bees
a mixture Of brandy and honey TO imbibe
The bees soon take a special delight in
this beverage, which has something the
same effect upon them as upon men; they
become ill-disposed. and instantly lose all

to attack and plumber well-filled hives.
