Eat Scoheld the unanimous grievance
of my countrymen was that they de-
sired % have control Of the weight Of
the coal Some stated that their grieN-
ances were presented TO the Utah Fuel
company through the miners union.
Others informed me that no complaints
were ever made 10 the company Some
stated that the company, II Is true, in
creased The wages, but II tllches tho
miners on the weight Of the coal, One
OF tn committees stated that their
grievances were presented TO the SUI
perintendont and to the boss OF the
company II Is the unanimous desire or
the Italian miners TO join the union
and for the union to control their Ia
terests. They complain that the COM
pany violates the laws Of the state colt
corning individual liberty, because at
the different mining camps the officers
will not ALLOW them to hold meetings,
and n they do they are arrested, ana
that they can 60 nowhere unless they
are maltreated, insulted and arrested. y

FAR REACHING.
What the Coal Strike is Doing for
Carbon County and Farmers.

The coal strike is seriously affecting
business In the state, For one thing, II
has been the intention Of the Utah Fuel
company to build 1000 coke ovens ut

there Uut various obstacles have arisen.
and now the strike has proven the cap
sheag. and only 400 have been built.
The company was short OF water to be.

so. 600 for his water rights close by
But Mr. " hitmore refused, and as the
company subsequently found all the
water they wanted IN their mines, they
saved S200c0 Mr.. Kramer says It Is
difficult with the labor troubles so LA
lle to occur, to raise money I'm the east
The addition a. $50 ovens TO the sunny
side plant would prove the means of
distributing more money In the county.
In The past five years the road
company and the coal company have
had payroll IN Carbon county OF al
most 100000 monthly, exclusive OF what
the miners In the fCur coal camps Of
the county have drawn each month
from the company stores. The coa,
product Of this county at this season Of
the year Is almost 10 per cent OF the
t0nnag, of the Rio Grande Western
railway. and during The summer
months about 60 per cent The conl
company. Wasatch Store company ana
Utah Tuol company pay about 20 per
cent of the taxes ~ Carbon county.
The Carbon county commissioners
had on hand $4,000 when the strike
came. that they were intending 10 eN-
pend m the spring mostly on road bet.

money 10 pay expenses incurred by the
strike: the heavy income from saloon

ed that Mr. Kramer had personally
been in conference with his dissatisfied
miners, and to the list of ~ grievances
submitted had in he main consented
to allow them. the principal exception
being an acknowledgment OF the Min

He states now his ability to supply coal

ing work are guaranteed protection,
and that they are prepared to close
down their works rather than recognize
