UTAH POWER AND
LIGHT co. USING
ALL POWER PLANTS

Word received here this week by
local representatives of the Utah Pow
err Il Light Co, indicates that early
completion of the work of rebuilding
the transmission pole lines running
from Park City through the Wasatch
mountains into the Salt Lake valley
via. the company's power plants on
Mill Creek In Mil Creek canyon south
east OF Salt Lake
The transmission line extends from
Park City to Eureka, Utah. and a large
force OF men are at work changing
the cross arm construction on the
poles and rcstringing the wires. II
is one Of the most important improve
.meDts In service. undertaken by the
Utah Power a. Light Co. throughout
the portion of its territory served by
this transmission line
Every power plant In Utah owned
by the company is being utilized to
furnish power for the company's
transmission aud distribution lines.
With the completion of the big pow
or houses OH Bear river some of the
smaller Utah Plants have been reliev-
ed of n portion of the work they have
been doing and the greater part of the
load oil the Company's lines Is as
sumcd by the new power houses.
This resulted only In a curtailment
OF the hours of operation of some of
the smaller plants IN Utah. None of
the latter power houses have been
shut down, however. nor Is this likely
to occur at any time In the immediate
future
On the contrary. word from the gen.
eral Offices OF the Utah Power a. Light
Co. indicates that with future de-
velopmcnt of the market OF electric
service throughout this section cor

velopment of the market during the
past eighteen months. II will be neccs-
s1ry TO operate every power plant to
capacity within a very short time.
rhc improvements and extentions to
these power plants during the past
year have amounted to hundreds of
thousands of dollars and in addition
to the regular work they are now do
ing, they form power generation re-
serve for the Utah Power a. Light Co.
that will make II possible for the COM
pany 10 handle a steady increase In
the extention of It's service without
trouble.

GERMAN MlliTARISM

We do not exactly demand that position, but living in a military state, undoubtedly in the enjoyment of it. It is well that are, not for insignificant selves, for do count, but the state is the supreme thing and there be preferential treatment for those who it's livery and do it's service Do imagine that the life of German officer is round of autOcratic dolce far mente He rises at dawn and works twelve hours day salary a shop assistant would scOrn. A lieutenant receives lbs. 10 lbs. month. A colonel ceives up to 800 lbs year.

The Presidents Circumspection

President Wilson unbosomed himself before sev- eral newspaper of the National Press Club on Friday night complaining that he had been un- derstood and that his motives had been miscon- strued. If he seemed circumspect he said it was in order that he might avoid blunders
 But many do accuse the president of too great circumspection To be circumspect following the word back to it's Latin origin is look around" There some who think that the pres- dent has not looked around but that he has looked too steadily in direction; that if he had looked around this country and less continuously, along single line, he would have changed his Mexican policy
 The president, though has had the good for tune to be able to do big scale what almost anyone do on little scae-to attract the gaze of others in the direction in which looks steadily We have all seen stop the street and gaze heavenward, apparently at some object. In a short time he would be joined by another and another craning their necks, each wondering what the rest looking at
 So, the presidents steady gaze the Mexican situation has caused many his fellow citizens mostly members of his own party. to look along that marrow lane. But the throng of gazers is falling away. What is is less and less worth looking at The crowd wanting to another kind of Mex ican policy is increasing

DueIs of Two Nations

We print this morning the story of Austrian duel in which army officer who had been forced into it against his wish by his brother officers killed. His antagonist brother in law equally to the combat. Both agreed that they without grievances warranting such encounter. In this instance the duel at it's worst, for though duel in circumstances is justified by any grievance on the part of either antagonist, duel without grievance is particularly cold blooded affair.
 The dispatches lately carried story of a French duel. and French dues are supremely rid- cuous, worse so far the nation is concerned than the bloody Austrian duel In this case the son of an Academician for slight upon his wife challenged playwright The duel was fought the wives of both looking distance from an automobile. They had been denied the privilege of appearing directly upon the field of honor One of the principals received slight puncture on the forearm That serious a casualty as was expected
 If there must be duels they should be the real thing. The French may have idea these absurd meetings fanced dishonor but they have a deleterious effect upon the national honor.
