Dressed IN Raglan oyercoat, with
brown trowsere shoes q little thicker IN
sole and broader In cut than those In
the show windows, and hat that was
not Of the dimensions that are sold In
stores Ebert Hubbard, editor Of the
phIistma magazine, and chief Of the
Roycroftcr settlement at East Aurora,
arrived IN salt Lake this morning.
He spent the time until noon looking
over the city, and then he said to a
reporter who met his at the Snutsford,
that salt Lake was great place, and
was the one place I'm America outside
OF East Aurora where he observed the
principles working eScelltntly, whhh he
tries to put into operation at East Au-
roro
you zee It is this way he went on,
Corporation Of effort makes a mighty
intelligence Observe tho bee which
has no Intelligence away from the hive,
and without It's companions IN power
less, but with them AL together YOU
get the mighty intelligence Of the hive.
Going q little farther you can carry tina
logic Of the argument 20 our theory that
% man by himself is not intelligent, but
united with his fellows reaches heights
of intelligence and success"
TRIBUTE TO "MoRMoNIsM"
THE people who settled Utah were
that kind. Now ] am not a religious
man, not even a Christian, but / will
say that IN 'Momonlsm' there are basic
principles Of correct living, correct
thinking and that unity of effort which
brings great results, This city has re-
sponded greatly To- that kind OF effort
since ! was here last Il is growing
and the class of buildings you are put
ting up rs more substantial, Of a better
kind generally
now HE GOT STARTED
Whom asked as to his plans for the
future. and the way In which he came
to get started I'm the work which he has
made SO distinctvely successful Mr.
Hubbard said that he first got started
Hs a printers devil and before me got
his education he was reporter on the
Peoria Transcript the Bloomington
Pantergaph, and the Chicago Times.
Then he "braCed into Harvard twice
Just 10 convince himself OF how little
value college education really ls and
spent two years there. Every man.
No. said Ought TO go 10 college, or no
. viii torNnr3he wanting % go therc for
feat he hns missed Something
ROYCRoFTERs GROWING.
Concerning the Philistine. he said that
10 years ago he had % few flying ideas
about lifa and its purposes, that weren't
acceptable 10 the magazines so he
started one OF his own, as an outlet for
U... 10. "a
was Il mere flyer" he said, but now &c
~ pretty well established. At Portland
the other day the Roycrofters had
ROycroft day. and there were hundreds
OF them present Here IN Salt Lake,
we have about 300 subscribers
HUBBARD's RELIGION.
If one passed Ebert Hubbard on the
street ne could be pardoned for think
Ink him something Of u freak and
yet as one sizes up his variations from
standards Of the mode, he sees that the
man measures his extremes only by
inches. He is said to be entirely out
OF Joint with the times, and yet he has
caught the ear OF the world as few men
out OF Joint with his era ever did, IN
our work we find our religion" is his
creed and "our Joy Is 10 do II we'll" IS
his statement of his source OF happl-
ness II one wishes TO class him with
the notorious instead of the famous
men, he must stop a minute 10 recall
that all the while Edgar Allan Poe was
writing the poems America is now
gradually moving up to the highest POI
sIti0n IN American letters, the county
tecmcl with critics who declared ne
was threc-f0urths buncombe and fake.
II Is even said that he was criticized TO
death, and after his critics died he be-
gan TO live first in France, and then in
his own country, where his work is
gradually acquiring the place to which
the French elevated It decade ago.
HAS MANY FOLLOWERS.
The measure OF Mr.. Hubbard cannot
be taken by any Of the known stand
ards, but ne seems to be one Of those
men who know a good deal more OF
their generation than the generation
knows OF them. He has established n
gallery OF immurtals' for those who
believe IN his principles, and It ls get
ting TO be "a rather long list, What place
he win take is still uhfOrccasted by the
regulation critics who try TO place the
literary men OF today In relation to
those OF yesterday Certain Il Is that
since his Phllsune began, book max
| ing ana printing nave been altered
greatly, and styles IN furniture have
| changed
