Site .72 DO YOU KNOW That we, Ifke nearly all other public utfl- ities, have to have a large investment in ma- chinery and other equipment just for what we term the peak load. That is the biggest consumption used in a day’s time or a week's or a month’s time, if there is a special demand for power for some special requirement; and the utility must be prepared for that service by having a proper and sufficient equipment to handle it. Hence, all this outlay for per- haps just a few hours’ demand which must be supplied, Did you ever think that even at the times when you are using less—or scarcely any Items and Articles About Men and Events Throughout the State Begin Track Work ROCK SPRINGS, Wyo., April -26.— Hundreds of men in all lines of labor started work of doubletracking at Granger and Carter, on the Union Pacific, Monday. Heads of depart- ments have arrived from Omaha and common later is arriving datly from the large cittes. Of the $40,000,000 to be expended this year by the Union Pacific, $5,000,000 will be used in double tracking, constructing new bridges, ete., between Granger and Leroy.

In 1919 70,229 gallons were shipped from the United Kingdom to Mexico and various West Indian| Islands. In 1920 the amount was 821,620 gallons. A rather poor year was 1921, with only 334,615 gallons to its credit. But in 1922 the record was run up to a matter of 609,500 gallons. Something ought about these Mexicans and West In- to be to make thirsting America jealous. Is there no Wililam H. Anderson in Mexico to save its people from becoming habitual drunkards? Has Nassau, Bimini and the other spots in the Bahama Islands no Wayne B. Wheeler and no William Jen- nings Bryan?

Here is a fertile field for thought; if our mental processes in this country are not so burned out with the fiery coco-cola we are con- suming as to prohibit thought. But whether thought is burned out or not matters little. It will be legis- lated out of existance during the process of passing the next eight or ten constitutional amendments which the reformers are planning, eB Lg There is plenty of talk of Henry Ford for president. Mr. Arthur Brisbane, who does not carry in his system quite all the deadly tox- ins and poisonous characteristic of the employer for whom he works, is greatly exer- cised about the matter. underwriting Mr. Harding’s mind at the present moment, and says in so many words that the Repub- hean party will go bankrupt if it does not follow his advice, He says that it is not a question of ‘‘Hard- ing or ® Democrat for President,” | but one of “Harding or Ford.” The Hearst antipathy to every save Americans is well kown the Hearst antipathy for a of Nations, a World Court, ing else which has in it a n” element.
