a mistake to Kill that part of the bill.
If it should have developed that the
provision gave the roads too much
power, it could have been amended
two years from now. 1 believe it would
have done much good. 1 think the rail-
roads are better able to handle the coal
supply than is any individual, and l
do not believe the power sought to be
given by the bill would have been
abused to the extent of gripping or
running independent operators. We are
not like some of the older communities
that the railroads seek to overpower
and control absolutely. l concede that
the railroads have made unfair dis
ordinations against some points in
Utah in the past, particularly i'll the
matter of rates, and l admit that rail-
roads can make or ruin a community.
But do not believe our railroads have
any designs against this state now. On
the contrary, I believe thew want 20
build I'D all the Industries of this re-
gion. Self-interest would suggest this
to the railroad managers. / know Mr..
Harriman's policy is to build w this
region. because he told me as much.
Regarding the outlook for next sea-
son. l can only say that l believe it will
be better. l think the railroads will
make every effort to give good service
and with the lessons we have learned
in the past we ought to be able TO be-
gin the winter with much coal in stor-
age"
More Mines Needed.
Prospects, so far as the coal situa-
ton is CONSERVED, depend on the peo-
pie and the action they take between
now and next winter" said Governor
John c. Cutler. 1T is my opinion thai
the situation is due almost entirely tC
a lack of railroads. There is no doub
that the coal is plentiful and of com
parative1y easy access. Within ra'
dius of few hundred miles from thi:
/ city there is enough coal to supply thG
state for centuries. But it appears L
me that the great advance in prosperi
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1907-03-31

ty, and the corresponding increase of
freight transportation, have been more
rapid than the increase of facilities.
There is only one thing TO do: Build
railroads to the coal mines and develop
new fields. Capital and labor should
get together Immediately, and men
with money should set men with muscle
to work developing the great coal
fields and building and equipping new
roads.
L do not know that it was within
the power of the recent legislature to
do much to relieve the situation. One
important step was taken which viii
probably result in determining the legal
status of the coal lands in Utah and
the possibility of their being taken up
and developed. But beyond this | do
not suppose the legislature could have
gone. The remedy, however, is not in
legislation, but in. the increase of coal
mines and carrying facilities"
Advice to Consumer.
Il believe the solution of the coal
problem next season, as far as domestic
use is concerned, lies almost wholly in
the hands of the consumers them
selves" said w. J. HallOran, president
Of the Commercial club. The citizens
should begin to fill their coal bins in
September and October, and dealers
should begin to lay in all they can
store right now. l am satisfied the sit
uation will be better this wear than
last. The railroads undoubtedly will be
in better shape to handle the coal. New
mines are to be opened this year SO
that. with the warning the roads have

FORCES 1T WORK TO
AVERT. COIL FAMINE
IN UTAH THIS TER
Increased Storage Improved Railroad Facilities and En-
arged Development Of Coal Fields Promised
Views of Prominent Men,

Varying opinions regarding the out
look for ample coal supply in Utah and
salt Lake next winter are expressed
by coal operators, railroad men ana
others who have studied the situation
Although men interviewed on the mat
Ter differ as TO the effect of the defeat
of senate bill No. %, which provided
that railroads might own and operate
coal mines, well-informed business men
of salt Lake are almost unanimous in
the belief that the situation will be bet
ter this year than last.
EXPRESSIONS of coal operators show
that local consumers are preparing to
baein the winter with large supplies of
coal in storage, a policy that is in
dOrsed by many citizens who have
given careful consideration to the out
look for the season. The belief is gen
eral that transportation facilities will
be better. This belief is put in definite
and positive form as far as the Harri-
man lines are concerned by w h
Bancroft, vice president and general
manager of the oregon Short Line.
Ample Transportation.
TRANSFORMATION facilities this year
VIII he ample for all the coal that can
be mined and l am informed that the
coal production in Wyoming will be
greatly increased" said Mr.. Bancroft
The Kemmerer Coal company is to
open two new mines about eight miles
north of its present mines, and eX-
poets 40 have them in operation by
July The railroad will be extended to
the new mines, so that their output
Will be availa bic for use this season. "
Our company hopes to be able TO
supply more coal this year than last" -
said H. C. Williams, general manager
Of the Utah Fuel company. Already
We are working TO increase our output
and We have every reason to believe
transportation facilities will be better
this year. our transportation difficult
ties came late last fall and early in the
winter. During the last part of the
winter our situa ton was good in this
respect. and we hope it will be even
better next season.
Greater Demand.
of course. we must take into con-
sideration the probability of an in
creased demand this year. There is
sure to be d natural increase in con-
sequence of increased population, and
IN addition TO that we already have
proof that early demands for coal for
storage viii come. This storage coal
Is requested for industrial use as well
as domestic. We now have heavy or
ders from Industrial concerns for coal
for storage. In some instances the or
ders run as high as 10000 tons. This

tempting TO forecast the probable stu
alton this year, but, on the whole, l
believe I am safe in saying our compa-
ny will be able TO give the home mar
kets more coal than last year.

Z TURNS DOWN BISHOP.
Mayor Vetoes Application to Erect
Temporary Church Ruildina.

Mayor Thompson yesterday vetoed the
that permission be accorded Bishop Law
renee Scanlen to erect temporary church
edifice on the north side of Fourth South
street west of the corner of Fourth West
Bishop Scanlen wrote the council for
such permission two weeks ago, giving as
reason the fact that he had received
notice that the premises known as St
Mary's Catholic church would have to be
vacated, owing to the ground having been
purchased by the Western Pacific rail-
road The matter was referred to the fire
committee and recommended by that
committee. Such a structure would be a
violation of the existing statutes with
regard to fire proof buildings, however. SO

Labor as Big Factor.

I'm our case, the difficulty of secur-
ing labor is the chief factor liable to
cause embarrassment next winter"
said F. p. Gridley, manager of the Cen
trail Coal & Coke company I'VE could
use 200 mere men right now, but we
can't get them. II is hard TO get the
American-born to work underground in
coal mine. and we have been forced
10 use JaDs. The new attitude of the
administration on japanese immigra-
ton promises to cause US trouble.
When not enough white labor can be
supplied, I think it is unjust to indus
tries to keep out Japanese. If we did
not use Japs we should not be able to
get out more than so per cent of the
coal we are now producing. We are
short on common laborers as well as on
miners. We would open new mines
right now if we could get the labor ne
cessary to operate them. but, of course,
we will not so to the expense of open
ing and developing mines until we are
assured that we can get enough men
to take out and handle the coal.
But, on the whole, l think the situa-
ton next winter will be better than
last. We shall have more coal, but still
not as much as we could use. I do not
question that the railroads will be in
better shape to handle the output of
operated with us in trying to get the
coal where it was most needed. We
turned down orders from Industrial
concerns right along last winter in or
der to avert suffering in homes. and
the railroads helped us. I could tell
YOU of specific instances where rail-
road officers directed that engine coal
be turned over for domestic use in
emergencies. In many cases Industries
have been made to suffer through lack
of coal that had been diverted for do
nestle use 1 think it is a mistake for
Salt Lake people to object to the prices
charged for coal. l have figures to
prove that coal sells in Salt Lake from
81 to 81 cheaper than in any other city
west of the Missouri.

Utah The figures will show that about
42j per cent of raw coal and about 40
per cent of coal in coke, or about i
per cent in all of our entire output is
shipped outside Utah. This includes
coal for all uses. The remaining IS per
cent is used in the state. More coal Is
shipped into Utah than out of it. We
could have sold almost any amount of
coal at additional prices of 81 to 50
outside the state last winter, but We
did not consider the opportunity for a
moment as we preferred to serve our
steady markets at home rather than
TO throw down the home consumer for
a temporary advantage to us through
