Eastern Utah Advocate, Price: The
tempo arr closing down Of the ellison
Asphaltum company's mines on the res
ervation Is an actual blessing to most Of
the freighters, There are conditions al
Price which could not exist anywhere
else in the civilized world. With hardly
an exception the freight contractors re-
fuse to pay dollar in cash to those who
haul In the mineral. They issue instead
store coupons which entitle the holder
70 merchandise at about three times II,
real yalue-'Take this or nothing. u
The result is that many ireighter would
be a great deal better of to turn his
horses on the range, put his outfit under
shed and 20 to work somewhere for q
few penniesa day in cash. There are
hundreds OF men in Cache valley who
have tried both, It's to be hoped that
by the time the mines start up again the
ireighters will insist ON u deal at least
as square as that given to the seris Of
Russia by their masters.
