WEBER CANYON CUTOFF
NOT PROFITABLE.

The building of the cutoff from
DEVILS Gate. at the mouth OF Weber
canyon, to Pennington does not ap-
peal to those outside railroad circles
as a profitable undertaking. At best
only few miles of road could be
eliminated, and the number of trains
which could make use of the cutoff
would be few The Los Angeles Linn
tied might go over the cutoff, and
still there is enough Ogden travel on
that train to cause the management to
desire to accommodate Ogden people
II the cutoff is to be built regard
less of expense. then no argument such
as influences other business enter
prises will prevail against the pro-
ject, but If 1t Is a question of dollars

estimated, the road Is doomed to fail

HOW MoDJESKA WON HER
FAME.

How Helena Modjeska, the famous
actress of Polish birth. triumphed over
all obstacles, including that of Ian
guage strange to her. and gradually
rose TO the pinnacle of fame in this
country. is related by Charles Phillips
of San Francisco,
Thirty years ago. Helena Modjeska,
having permanently retired from the
stage after brilliant career in Europe,
arrived in America. 1t was In 1876. at
the time of the Centennial exposition,
and In company with her party-a ver-
table colony of geniuses, exlles and
patriots (Sienkiewicz among them)-
she visited our first worlds fair.
Thence to California the altrulstic lit
tie colony betook itself and settled
down In delightful ease at Anaheim.
A second Brook Farm was launched.
AS long as their funds lasted they
lived perfectly delightful life. The
dream was soon rudely broken and the
happy colonists had to get out Of their
hammocks and go to work, some of
them at least. Necessity brought
Modjeska back TO the stage to which
| she had bidden farewell.
The first thing TO do 10 carry out
her resolve TO again turn to the stage
was TO learn English, and in 1877 the
Chlapowskis left the farm and went
up to San Francisco. 1t was there
they met Miss Tucholsky. the young
woman with whom almost at once ar
rangements were made for ModJeska
to study English and TO whom she
owes much of her start in America
Then began a struggle which often
lasted nights as well as days for her.
Modjeska found English stubborn and
difficult and progress was discouras-
lngly slow at first. altogether too slow
for her eager ambition. Finally. when
she saw that it would take months to
master the language sufficiently to use
1t fluently, she decided that for the
time being she would learn only the
| English of those parts in which She
wished to first appear. She had un-
bounded confidence in her we'll train
ed memory. SO the study OF ''Cleopa-
ira" was begun. role she had never
done in Europe.
} The trust she had put in her memory
had not been misplaced. At the end
OF less than four months she had COM
pletely memorized in English the parts
OF Adrienne Lecouvreur. Cleopatra, Ju-
liet and Ophelia, remarkable feat.
All this time she was watching for
an opening on the stage. John Nc

the president of great railroad sys-
tenn or other large corporation, had
not vet come up on the field with
wealth OF original ideas and a reputa-
tion to sustain.
The most striking influence on the
publicity of the times was the method
employed by an immortal circus man
who modestly claimed to have "the
greatest show on earth.' and adopted
as his motto the dictum that "thc
American people love to be humbug
ged" The English language was ram
sacked and exhausted In the search
for 1amboyant adjectives to describe
tho Circassian lady and the wild man
from Borneo, the Cardiff giant and the
Slamese twins. Everything was cloud
compelling. stunning and stupendous-
Unfortunately. the influence OF this
kind Of publicity permeated the whole
country and every man who undertook
to set forth the merit OF his wares
adopted this cheap gorgeousness, this
catch-penny abuse of superlauvcs.
The growth of competition and the
scientific development of advertising
gradually changed all this. 1t was
soon discovered that the merchant
who misled his customers forfeited
their confidence and esteem and that
in advertising, as in SO many other de-
partments Of endeavor, honesty was
the best policy.
The professional ad. writer recog-
| nized this almost instinctiyely and side
by side with the search for originality
and attractiveness in type and Illus
trations went the policy of honesty
and candor.
This tendency has been growing and
expanding until today the advertising
columns of a newspaper are recogniz-
ed as the great clearing house for COM
mercial information. The daily adver-
tisement Is the bureau OF information
as to new styles, new fabrics, and all
| the novelties put out by the ingenuity
of the world. The up-to-date advertis-
er has no disposition whatever TO mis-
represent the goods he has to sell. 1t
would cost him his reputation, and the
competition is so keen that he cannot
afford TO impair this valuable asset
He seeks rather to present the fullest
and most accurate information he can
furnish his customers, and the adver-
tising columns OF modern newspaper
are as interesting as any other depart
ment Of the paper

REED SHOOTS HIGH
POSITION.

That Senator Reed Smoot Is credit
TO the State of Utah is set forth In
statement in the New York Herald.
Senator Smoots place on the senate
finance committee is a most enyiable
one and has drawn attention to the
Utah man. all the great papers OF the
country having seen ft to make com
mcnt on the Senator's rapid rise. The
New York Herald says;
1T Is the long stride from fighting
against big odds to retain a seat in
the United States Senate to a place
in It's highest councils, but it is one
which has been taken by Senator
Reed Smoot. of Utah, in one term.
Even before Senator Smoot had taken
his seat the storm of protest against
his retaining 1t had begun TO swell In
Eastern states, and when he took the
oath OF office its clouds hung so
threateningly that they would have
frightened less daring fighter,
1T was three sessions before the
storm of criticism OF the new Utah
senator had subsidized and the Senate
committee on privileges and elections
reported in favor of permitting him to
retain his seat Then, as if he had
been storing up energy during the two
previous years, Mr. 'Smoot launched
into his work as a senator like a
dynamo Those who worked with him
and tried to maintain his pace soon
dropped by the wayside, and left this
tall. quiet man of few words and much
energy ploddiDg steadily onward
During all the time that his right
to sit In the Senate had been ques-
toned. Senator Smoot had not lifted
his voice except to vote Now the Sen

MT Smoot prof1ted by his silence, and

him we'll located upon the Republican
side and active.
"On March 4, 1909, Senator Smoot
began his second term. Opposition to
him because of his close connection
with the Mormon church had disap-
peared Those who had taken a care.
full look into his life found that his
beliefs did not intrude themselves up
on the daily lives of others, and came
to know him as an ordinary American
citizen with plenty of Western snap
and energy.
To-day Senator Smoot is bearing, as
a member of the committee on finance,
heavy burden, being one of the nine
Republican senators who framed the
tariff bill just about to be reported to
the Senate. Membership in this com
mittee is the most sought appointment
In the United States Senate 1t is i'm
Dortant from financial standpoint
and gives a senator power which is
not refused The honor went to Sena-
| tor Smoot unsought, but was earned
| by hard, persistent, careful work upon
less important committees.
His work was watched and marked
by Senate leaders. When the new com
| nittees were chosen at the beginning
of the extraordinary session. Mr..
Smoot rose to the top of the heap. On
this committee he is associated with
Senator Aldrich, of Rhode Island. its
chairman, and Senator Hale, of Maine.
These two men are the leaders of the
Senate They were the ones who
chose Reed Smoot to help them in the
tariff work. which is watched by the
whole business world"
