PLAN TO EXTEND
ELECTRIC LINES

That the Utah Light 20 Railway COM
pany is planning extensions of it's lines
throughout Salt Lake and Utah val
leys, and as far south as Provo, is
shown by the anxiety of that concern to
secure an extension of its franchise
from the county commissioners.

along county roads expires in 1910, and
overtures to the commissioners for ex-
tending the time to 1855, when the city
franchise of the company expires, were
made yesterday by President Bancroft
In addition, officials of the company
have intimated that in time they may
desire to reach Sandy, Bingham juno
ton and even Bingham, and that it
might be Well to give il a franchise
over all roads leading to these places

LOOK INTO OLD CASE.
Construction of Light House ir
Alaska Is Involved.

Clark McKetcher of the department
of justice of Washington, d. c., is in
the city looking into matters pertaining
to a suit being brought in the federal
court by the Karkin Construction COM
pany against the government in the
matter of the construction of a light
house on the coast of Alaska several
years ago. F. NJ. Brooke of Salt Lake
was at the time the superintendent of
construction for the government. and
it is principally to take the deposition
of Mr.. Br9oke that Mr.. McKetcher is in
the city.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1908-08-15
unanimously in favor of the companys

unanimously in favor of the companys
scheme.
The principal object in securing the
new franchise. il seems, is to secure
new rights of way. The company seems
especially anxious to extend in the di-
rection of Sandy. and this is accounted
for by the desire ultimately to condemn
a right of way through the Narrows
and through Utah valley TO Provo. This
country is exceptionally rich and pros
porous. and the officials of the company
believe that a profitable local freight
business could be soon worked up, as
well as heavy passenger traffic.
When the Utah Light e. Railway
company first asked the city for
franchise in 1907 a provision was in
corporated in the original draft giving
the company the right to haul freight
over the city streets during certain
hours of the night. On account of the
trouble encountered in passing any
franchise, this section was dropped, but
Farley l.. Williams, general counsel for
the company, suggested that it would
be revived at a future time.
In Need of Feeders.
Without lines reaching into the sur
rounding country by which freight can
be brought to the heart of the city the
privilege of hauling freight over the
tracks within the city limits would be
of little or no use to the street car peo-
pie. But with lines to Bingham, Sandy
and Provo, tapping a rich agricultural
and mineral company. such a privilege
would be absolutely necessary and of
incalculable value to the company.
The members of the board of county
commissioners are disposed to treat the
company fairly and give it every
chance to make improvements, but it
is probable that something more than
the mere improvement of the Murray
line will be demanded in return.
In support of the contention that
several extensions are planned, it is
pointed out that by this means most of
the agricultural products of the sur
rounding country could be brought to
Salt Lake cheaply by the Hartman
Utah Light & Railway company, and
such as was to be sent out could be
taken by the Hartman Oregon Short
Line. This would cut the Rio Grande
out of a large local traffic also and
cripple the earning power of that road
in this vicinity
