This was great outrage in the eyes of
those who had put in their money for
stock, and who were liable for the bonds,
and they interviewed, and got a Receiver
appointed. What the Receiver will
recommend no one but himself knows
but the prayer of the petitioners for inter
ventlon has been answered bv stoppino
that part of the Utah Eastern which was
running from Coalville to the mines of
the Home Coal Company, and thereby
compelling the Home Company to shut
down their mines, and discharge from
work one hundred men. This was the
work OF the intervenors, the friends of
the people, and not that horrid Union
Pacific Company. Why do not the in
terVenors ask leave to amend and CHARGE
tins against those who merely asked for
their money? 1t would be consistent
with their course heretofore. Perhaps
they could get the miners who were dis
charged to join with them.
