called on the different merchants and
business men OF Ogden this morning
and secured interviews with refer.
ence TO the reductions In the freight
rates made by the Interstate Com.
merce commission and found all OF
the interviewed of an optimistic
frame OF mind on account OF the re-
ductions. They agree that it will
bring many thousands more into the
lnscrmountain country each year and
the public VIII derive innumerablc
benefits therefrom
Will Wright. OF Wrights, stated that
while their discounts offset their
freight charges to certain extent. 1t
would help them more around the
holiday season than at any other
time. but Notwithstanding this fact
1t would mean decided reduction In
the annual expenses and would be
taken Into consideration when they
marked their goods and the public
would derive the benefit of the reduc-
tions.
Messrs. Douglas and Plngree. OF the
Boyle Furniture company and Ogden
Furniture company. respectively,
spoke on the same lines. each saying
that the reductions meant saving
20 the people of this community and
the surrounding country. and wher-
ever their territory extends. Neither
attempted TO say whether their ter.
rltory would be extended on account
of the reductions. hut both said 1t

LAST TRIBUTES TO MISS
SMITH.

"She is not dead-she is just
away" was the pretty sentiment ut
tered by DR.. Doremus Scudder,
pastor of Central Union church,
during the services held yesterday
afternoon over the remains of the
late Miss Harriet D. Smith, the
young woman who lost her life in
Wednesday nights auto accident.
1t was line taken from the beauti-
full verses of James Whitcomb
Riley, with the gender of the per-
sonal pronoun changed. DIR. Scud-
der read the verses through and
not only to the bereaved girl COM
panions of the deceased, but to the
company of friends gathered to pay
a last tribute of affection did the
verses seem singularly appropriate:

storms, and then the calm. Some
one has said that "the greatest
pleasure is the sudden relief from
pain" And you will likely say that
you know something of that pleas
tire" if you ever take trip from
Honolulu to Hawaii and succeed in
getting your feet safe on shore, and
that part of it is pretty tolerably
certain, for there is rarely an acct
dent of any sort in this inter-island
travel.

Jesus only, Creator and King,
To Triune God all praise we must
bring;
Out with it boldly, let the words

Other than that, this whole world
