had watched the big combine with its
81 horses cut, thresh and sack the
wheat for awhile Mrs. Millican got up
on the seat of the harvester and took
the ribbons, and the way she drove the
big team of 81 horses around the ranch
would put the average teamster to

Economic Handling Of Me-

OMAHA, Neb., Oct. 12.-In carry
ing out Mr.. Hariman's ideas as to
economical shop operation, the Union
Pacific Railroad company has almost
finished the complete rebuilding of it's
various plants here. The new black
smith shop, on the basis of output and
cost to the size of the establishment,
has already made a remarkable record
for economy.
The arrangement and equipment of
the shops was determined by the idea
of reducing waste of time and labor to
the minimum. Work which will go
through the new Union Pacific shops
will be routed" so as to save every
possible minute and avoid unnecessary
handling. The principle underlying
the construction of these shops is that
they shall be run on exactly the same
basis as that of any manufacturing
concern engaged in competitive bust
ness. Eighteen thousand men, on a
payroll of some 100000 a year are
employed here.

THE NEEDED SPANKING.
Hughes Administered It In His Two
Cent Fare Veto.

Hughes Administered It In His Two
Cent Fare Veto,
It seems not improbable that Gov
ernor Hughes veto of the two cent
rate bill may mark the beginning Of
the end of what may be fairly termed
predatory legislation. The judicial
words of the governor are in marked
contrast to the attitude Of those legts-
lators and city politicians who, with
demagogic short sightedness, have as
snmed that the best way to win votes
Is to badger corporations.
The reckSessness Of these men has
brought the country to the verge Of a
business depression that is the natural
result of the sudden check 10 industrial
development. for men with brains
enough to make money are not likely
to risk 1t in new enterprises or extern
sions of old ones when all prospect OF
profit may be cut away by an act Of a
state legislature or a city council.
II is great fun for the baby to poke
sticks into the works Of a watch, and
the infantile intelligence Of certain
statesmen" probably derives equal de-
light from their attempts to regulate
industries of whose workings they
know no more than the baby does
about the watch. Governor Hughes

tremely delicate operation, probably
the first of its kind in this country
for the dread and horrible affiiction
known as water on the BRAIN" it Is
believed that the life of little Marie
Bryner, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. AL
bert Bryner, of Price has been saved,
and that the child has also probably
been freed from the danger of long
years of hopeless, bed-rdden agony.
The operation was performed at the
Latter-day Saints hospital Tuesday
morning by DIR. S. H. Allen, assisted
by DR.. George w. Middleton. DR.. E.
Van Colt administered the ether, while
the operation was witnessed by other
physicians who had heard of the case.
water on the brain" say physicians,
is caused by an excessive flow of blood
to the head. The carotid arteries are
the main sources of supply to the brain,
which is supposed to use the white
corpuscles of the blood thus furnished.
The supply becoming excessive, the
matter gathers in the head, producing
| the affection.
The operation of Tuesday was the
| second of two that have been per-
| formed by the physicians. It consist
ed of cutting into the soft part of the
neck of the child, and tying up the
carotid artery so that the blood would
cease to flow through it. The artery
on the right side was tied up eight
days ago, and that on the left Tuesday
thus completing the operation. Hence
! forth Marie's brain will be furnished
with the necessary nourishment
through other arteries, of minor i'm
portance in most people, which also
conduct blood to the brain.
Test Is Successful.
| The operation is declared to be en-
tirely successful, and there were two
happy parents at the hospital Tuesday
night, who were confident that they
would be able to take their babe home
to Price within week.
This treatment for water on the
brain is quite recent in the practice OF
surgery. DR.. Allen stated Tuesday thai
!
ticed in this country at all. DR.. AL
lens notice had been called to little
Marie about one year ago, when heI
parents brought her to Salt Lake the
first time, in the hope that something
might be done for their child. Mr.. AND
Mrs. Bryner were at that time inform.
ed that all the skill of surgery had 81
far been practically hopeless in thu
treatment of this ailment.
Then DR.. Allen took trip to Eu
rope, and while in Edinburgh. Scot
land, he studied under DR.. H. J. Stiles
recognized universally as an authorit!
on this subject. r.'Allen remember
ed the case of little Marie Bryner, an
watched DIR. stiles perform one opera
ton. Dr. stiles is said to have prac
ticed this method successfully for f1v
years.
AS triumph in the surgical art,
this operation proves successful, it wi
be heard of wherever medical journal
are published.
