Tho Problem That Seriously Conironts
The People Is Lack OF Proper
transportation.

While the entire western country lis
grooming in the thrGes of a fuel famine,
it is interesting and copsoling to note
that there is at least one county in
Utah which Is not subject TO the gem
eral complaint. Emery county. situated
1863 miles southeasterly from this city.
Is the favored section, and. according
TO Representative c. e, Larsen. who

TO speak, the inhabitants OF the valleys

AT EVERYBODY'S DOOR.
Every town in Emery county, said
Representative Larsen to News re-
porter today, has a coal mine at its
very door. A splendid quality OF do
nestle coal is to be had nj the mines
for dollar a ton. and a man with
a team can get all he wants at this
price. The mines deliver the coal to
any part OF the county for SO per tor,
and some of the people think this is a
high price TO pay. Coal formation seems
10 undorlie the whole country. In any
of the canyons it is possible to dig to,
depth OF eight or ten feet and secure
a good merchantable quality OF coal.
but OF course the quality increases aa
depth ID attained, There are any num-
Der of veins 10 feet thick by 20 feet
wide at Il very nominal depth, being
worked, and yet the country haE hardly
been touched IN the way OF mining, and
the possibilities are practically unit
less.
LACK OF TRANSPORTING
THE chief reason that the coal is
not obtainable In this part of the coun-
try is the lack of transportation tacili-
ties. VIC are situated 30 miles from thu
nearest railway and while we haya

ILLINOIS JUDGE.

d. II. Heimlich is judging the poul-
try. He comes from Jackson, H., where
he is famous breeder OF White Rocks.
and he declared this morning that state
appropriation in the middle western
states is In no small way responsible
for their leadership in the matter of
poultry raising. Most of the chick
ems of the United States" he says, ARE
raised in five states, Illinois. Missouri.
Indiana, Iowa, and Ohio. with oklaho-
ma and Kansas rapidly coming TO the
front. Here in Utah you have every
advantage. There is plenty of good
ranch land, and chicken raising has
long ceased to be a matter OF having
a flock in the back yard, for the house
wife to attend to, The large ranch is
one of the surest paying propositions
possible, when plenty OF care is exer-
cised.
.'If your Legislature viii take q hand
In the matter. and help the good work

not soon increase her output in poul-
try and eggs, until at least the Rocky

FLOOD OF BILLS
IN LEGISLATURE
Senator Hulaniski Proposes to
Cut Down Automobile
Speed Bursts.
IN THE INTEREST OF LIFE.
Several Measures Come to House In
Early Afternoon With Indica
lions of More.

The deluge of bills promised for tha
opening of the second legislative week,
started early in both houses this after
noon. and It now seems that the five
days of this week on which the two
bodies meet will tablish the record for
the session
Senators and house members both are
anxious to secure an early hearing TO
clear the decks for the big railroad
commission, and the consolidation
fights.
In the senate this afternoon, Hulanl-
ski started the bail rolling with four
new bills.
The first goes after automobile driv-
crs, but tho horror OF a slow speed
law is spared them, for the bill does
not designate how fast they may go in
miles per hour, but merely says they
must never go fast enough 10 en-
danger life or bodily safety or to cause
destruction OF property
This means" said Senator Hulani-
Ski, that when a motor car gets a
free road, it can go as fast as it's driver
wishes so long as he doesn't endanger
anybodys neck but his own. When
however. he is in the city and In d
crowd, he must slow over crossings and
such places, TO q reasonable speed.
Violations OF the law are classed as
misdemeanors.
The bill Is numbered a. and went TO
tho committee on county and municipal
corporations OF which b. y. Smith is
chairman.
OTHER BILLS.
s. II. No. 10. by Hulaniski. also adds
a section to the law on the official bal
lot in elections. Tho new clause allows
one party to designate the order IN

Made for Americans,

Hon. Ricard Bartholdt, in an
address to Republicans in ST.
Louis, pointed out the great
reason why the Republican party
will cling to the Protective
Tariff. while in Europe last
summer, says Mr.. Bartholdt,
81 found that the people were
unanimously opposed to the
American policy of Protection.
1t is a bad thing for the Euro
peans, but a splendid thing for
Americans. The American
laborer is to-day receiving wages
three times greater than is paid
to his German brother, and twice
as much as the laborer of Eng
land"
That is the reason why the
republican party, which created
the Tariff, will defend it.
Europe does not like the Ameri-
can Tariff. But the American
people prosper through it, and
will retain it. The fact that the
American laborer gets twice as
much wages as the British work.
er in the same field, and three
times as much as the German
laborer, furnishes a complete
vindication of the Republican
Protective policy. The Tariff is
largely responsible for the
American workers pre-eminence
among his fellows all over the
world, Over 100000 imml-
grants come to the United States
every year to share in the pros
perity which the Republican
party's Tariff policy has won for
the country.
The Tariff which the Republic
can party has devised, and which
it will maintain, is for the United
States only. No effort was made
by the trainers of the Tariff tc
please England, France, Ger
many, or any other old-world
country. The interests of the
American worker were the sole
CONCERN of the Republican party
in creating the Tariff. By the
American worker is meant the
entire body of the population,
consumers as we'll as producers.

NARROW ESCAPE FRoMDRowNINc
Hon. F. M. Cutrie's Horses and Buggy
Swept Down a Creek and He
Barely Escapes


The thawing of snow last
week caused all creek banks to
become filled with swiftly flow
ing water and the usual places
for fording became unsafe. Last
Saturday. Hon f. M. Currie, ac-
companied by J. Ulrich, of Trad
shaw, left the Currie ranch for
this city. A drive of four miles
bought them to a fording place
on Deer creek Which was terribly
swollen, but they finally decided
to attempt crossing.
The swift current .floated and
overturned the buggy and the
horses were unable TO swim while
hitched to it, consequently the
whole rig was swepts down
stream. 1t was with difficulty
the occupants managed to get
ashore, and they wonder now
how they succeeded in 'oing so.
The bodies of the horses and a
part of the buggy were found tue
next day three miles from where
the accident occurred.

A Dairy Commission Law.

A bill has been introduced into
the Legislature of the state
House Roll No. 1876; Senate File
No. 199-which provides for
Dairy Inspectors whose duty it
shall be to inspect dairy products
and to prevent the sale of milk,
cream or butter that is unfit for
human food. The enforcement
of this law will prevent the dairy
men from selling milk or cream
that is unsanitary surroundings
or conditions; it will prevent the
creameries which buy cream from
keeping cream IN undesirable
places such as the storeroom of
some grocery store surrounded by
onions, fish, oil or rotten vege-
tables and then making into but
ter to be sold at a low price.
The two principal objects aimed
at in this measure are a square
deal for both dairyman and
creameryman in the testing of
cream and an improvement in the
quality of dairy products, causing
them to bring a better price in
the market; and if by these
means it is possible to improve
the quality of cream and butter
so that the butter fat which the
dairyman produces and sells
would bring one cent per pound
more than was received last year,
the increased price would pay ten
times over, the annual expense
necessary to establish and main
tain the Dairy Commission.

The old "be good and you'll be
happy" formula contained an
element of truth-but only an
element. In life the virtuous do
not always triumph, nor do the
wicked invaribly come to grief.
1t is far better that the receptive,
credulous mind of youth should
early arrive at practical under
standing at the wholesome effects
of right living, from every day
example, than that the hunger
ing intellect be nourished with
platitudes and left to grope its
uncertain way by ala of the dim
light of half truths Only to be
thrust at last into glare of real
ism so far removed from even
the possibility of expectation as
to induce timidity aud beget
