SAILS Lake Tribune Advocates the
Erecsfoa OF One In That cay.
The strike in the Germans smelter at
Salt Lake City has renewed the agitation
Of the question Of erecting . new smelser
in that city. Some two or three weeks
ago the SENTINEL suggested the idea
that the most effective means Of dealing
with the Smelter Trust would be for the
ore producers themselves 10 erect smelt-
ers, and this lie the argument thai is now
being advanced as the most certain TO
solve the problem.
In an editorial article on The outcome
Of the Germauia strike the Tribune Of
that city says;
"The heavy mining men here should
bring around the remedy. A very
splendid smelling plant can be erected
for far less than il is pretended that such
plants cost. There is no expensive
machinery u bay and the work 81 cen
struesion is simple. There are plenty Of
skilled w~orkinsnsn ready 10 carry q
such work. This 10 . good TINE 10 eo1-

10 Another means Of bringing about tb

y while . State can not legally aids privat

y not engage in the smelling bushes

industry of Utah ii is urged that i
would be the proper thing for the Stat

producers.
: One large mining company Of that cit
y has for some time past been perfectip
70 plans for the erection Of ssmelting plant
J. and as it has ample capital behind !
,f there can be no doubt thai before th

perfected to overthrow the power Of th
Smelling Trust in Salt Lake City.
