absurd beyond measure. such private
development does not look to real
utilization Of our power resources but
rather to retarding such development
so that the supply will remain limited
and exorbitant prices may be
charged. As a consequence of the mis-
taken policy in vogue in this coun-
try the northwest suffers heavily.
There are sufficient power resources
in the northwest that If they were
developed upon a sane basis by the
public and not left to the tender
clutches of private monopoly there
would be enough electricity developed
to light and heat every home in these
states, run the machinery. do the
cooking and thresh the grain. BY
the policy pursued We allow most Of
this power to go TO waste year after
year and for what electricity there is
developed the public pays prices many
times greater than the rates charged
in other nations where power re-
sources are handled with more SAN
ity.

MAKES SECOND TRIP ACROSS
COUNTRY AFTER SIN YEARS

Enjoying the unique distinction of
bringing the first machine across the
country that was piloted entirely by
women, Mrs. W. Atwood and Mrs. w
ID. Lewis six years ago stopped over
in Ely last Wednesday night on their
way to San Francisco. where they
will visit the exposition. They were
accompanied by their husbands, Har-
old Leonard. the chauffeur. and Mrs.
Martha Ramsay. They are travelling
from Hackensack, New Jersey.
The pathfinder discussed largely
on the increased Accommodations that
are afforded tourists now in COM
parison with the hardships they en-
countered on their initial venture.
Lack of suitable sleeping quarters
and proper food were the principal
difficulties the ladies experienced
when they went from coast to coast
the first time. They report that ac-
comodations can be obtained any
where along the Lincoln Highway in
case of necessity.

LINCOLN HIGHWAY o. h.

X. H. Canning. a famous mining
engineer and w. p. Joy of Salt Lake,
broke all speed records between Salt
Lake and Ely last Wednesday, when
they made the trip between the two
cities in eleven hours.
Mr. Channing's Packard car was
utilized in making the run of 290
miles. Not an accident of any ma
ture occurred to mar the pleasure of
the journey.
Mr.. Charming declared that the
time occupied in making the trip
might have been reduced at least an
hour. for he felt inclined to turn the
machine loose. having heard false re-
ports as to the condition of the Lin
coin Highway.
"All this talk about the Lincoln
Highway being almost impassable is
false" said Mr.. Charming
"The road from Salt Lake to Ely
could be made one of the best in the
country with the expenditure of sew
eral thousand dollars by the state Of
Utah. The thoroughfare is this
country is all that could be desired"
