WIDER DELIVERY
 OF WELLS FARGO
It Will Take in All the Corporate
 Limits

The anticipated order requiring the WtllS-Fargo Express company to make deliveries to the city limits will be issued by the corporation commis- sion within d few days This order will be a merely formal proceeding as the company has agreed to the re quirements of the commission.
 No formal hearing was held in this ease. The members of the commis- son made d tour of the city and in- fomed themselves regarding all the facts in the case and proceeded to formulate q finding from these facts. little later conference was held with some of the officers of the eX- press company and they agreed at that time to put the order of the commission into effect The order will become effective August l and from that time forward patrons Wlll re- ceive free delivery, no matter in what part of the city they reside.
 The Western Union Telegraph com pauy has already adopted the practice of delivering messages to all parts ol the city and no order was made with reference t0 that company.

GAN DO NJ HARM

Bibles in Evey Guest Room of the
 Hotel Adams

Travelling men don't custOmarily look for Bibles in their rooms at ho- tes; but those that stop at the Hotel Adams do find them there-there is copy of the sacred book in each room in the house The guest, of course, doesn't have to read the Bible, there is nothing in the hotel rules about making such practice compulsory. But the Bibles are there and as tray cling men are just like other indi- viduals it is inevitable that a good proportion of them are of a religious turn of mind and will thoroughly ap- preciate the thoughtfulness of the management.
 The Bibles will do no harm and maybe they do some good once in awhile" said Night Clerk Fox, 50 d copy has been placed each of the rooms. It was done on the same the ory that other conveniences are sup plied-some of the guests will want the Bibles and any that don't will simply pass them up"
 The practice of placing Bibles in hotel rooms is more common than you might suppose" one travelling man volunteered They have them now in the hotels in Denver and in fact they are found in a good many of the larger hotels throughout the country.
 Somebody says it is the little things that count and the little things have not been overlooked at the Adams. For instance, each guest will find in his room a supply of needles with thread of different colors. Every one who has done much travelling knows there are times when q needle and thread are longed for as the des- ert traveller longs for water, so this convenience is not so unimpOrtant as the stay-at-homes might think

In Concord, N. H. they tell of an old chap who made his wife keep a cash account. Each week he would go over it growing and grumbling. on one such occasion he delivered himself of the following:

Double Tracking Plans.

IN this connection arrangements are
being pushed for double tracking q
large portion OF our railroad In Utah
and al the same time reducing the
grade over Soldier summit from a
maximum Of ( per cent 10 maxi
mum NJ per cent. thus practically
doubling the transportation capacity
of the Denver & Rio Grande Utah
lines.
During the past year or two num-
Der OF very important local industries
have been established on our rail-
rosd, notably a large sugar plant at
Els!nore and a plant engaged in the
manufacture OF Keene cement. located
at Sigurl. and IT may be matter
OF interest TO state that the product
OF the latter plant Is being freely
moved to Atlantic seaboard points.

To this we may add that the winter

be the case n short time sgo. and all
our reports indicate unusually favor

gion, when our mining. livestock and
crop conditions are good. we know
everything else Is bond TO be good.
We feel sure that this year Will
bring much more business for us than
last year; In fact. we are so sure OF
II that We have already perfected

known that the oolitic stone quarries
on our Sanpete valley branch have
been moving large quantities OF their
product TO San Francisco and other
Pacific coast points. and in passing

used IN some OF tho moet imposing
structures erected In San Francisco
since the earthquake.
The products OF the larger plaster
mills located at Gypsum and Sigurd
are being marketed in tho northwest,

Bamberger Line Busy.

The Salt Lake & Ogden Railway com
pany. which is generally known as the
mbergcr road, has also had An I'm,
usually large increase in business Last
year this company operated two freight
trains each week, which were pulled
by steam engines. Now electric 1relgn'
trains pass over the road each night,
doing practically an express business
at freight prices. The freight bnsi.
ness on this road has more than doubled
within the last year.
There has also been a decided i'm.
provement in the express traffic and
the passenger business is improving
all of the time. The company does
not handle interstate freight. most OF
its trade being between Salt Lake City
and Ogden, Passenger trains run over
the road every hour, on the hour. IN
an hour, from 6 clock in the morning
till o'clock in the evening.

On October ], 1910, the Western
Union Telegraph company established
in salt Lake, district headquarters, with
U. G.. Life as superintendent in charge
The establishment of district with
besdouarters at Salt Lako was due
largely TO the fact that Salt Lake, from
