1t is not necessary to enumerate all
ths places in Wyoming, Utah and 9TH
Ter Territories where coal has been
discovered. |; is enough to say that
it is being found from time to time in
different localities. And iron orc of

especially tie case in Colorado and
Wyoming It's impossible to es,i-
mate the Importance not only to the
Western people. but to the CONNER
cial and manufacturing interests of
