COST Of CONSUMING
GARBAGE Of ZION
Eastern Prices Are Discounted
in the Crematory in Salt
Lake City.
43 CENTS PER TON Is
THE SUM NOW PAID
Criticism of Manner in Which
CrematOry Is Run Not
Based on Facts.

a morning contemporary that exhibits
symptoms OF bydrophobia whenever II
mentions anything connected with the
American party. has had ono OF its GUS
tomary fits over the manner in which
the city crematory Is being operated. 1t
endcavors to show that the cost of con-
suming garbage is II cents n ton, as
against 50 cents ton for tho same ser
Sice In Eastern cities.
Does Not Cost II Cents.
1t does not cost Il cents TO consume
The garbage In Salt Lake. although the
crematory erected by formor admins
trotion is defective In draft and In
adequate In size to the amount Of ma
terial that Is furnished 1t for consump-
tion.
What Was Cremated in May.
Samuel Batos, one Of tho furnace men,
states that last month 250 loads OF
garbage was consumed. and that each
load averages about 300 pounds, This
estimate Is made. he says, on tho ex-
has been I'm the business several years,
and has weighed hundreds OF loads. This
amount OF garbage would. on that basis.
weigh al2 tons, to which should be added
tho weight OF the carcasses Of forty-three
horses, six cows and numerous smaller
animals. with an aggregate weight OF
thirty tons. making the entire weight Of
material consumed Az tons.
Beats Eastern fIlCeS.
Tho cost Of reducing this stun to ashes
Is measured by the wages OF three men,
at SD month and about $50 worth OF
fuel. making tho total operating expenses
for the month $40. This brings down the
cost OF consumption to about Is cents
ton, discounts the Eastern prices for
similar services, and shows the spasm
OF the morning anti-American common
scold to have been a useless EFFORT.
Invited to Visit Plant.
Mr.. Bates states that the afternoon re-
ceipts Of the crematory are a pulp-like
stuff, composed largely of decayed vege-
tation and meats, and is difficult to
burn. He claims for himself and his fell
low employees, John Blower and John
Mckee, that they are giving good Ameri-
can service, which anyone can readily
see and fully understand by visiting the
plant which the people generally, and
newspaper men in particular, arc cor
daily invited to do.
