new COAL CAMP
FOR WYOMING
----------------
A Model Town TO Be Built With
Lid Placed on Intern
peranCe.
A RAILROAD is PLANNED.
Elk Coal Company Ready for Vlgor-
GUS Campaign OF Development
And Production.

A model coal mining town is to be
built in the near future on the property
of the Elk Coal company, which was
organized In this city few months
ago The location Is TO be in Uinta
county Wyo.. and 1t is to be connected
with the outside world by five'mile
spur to be built from the Cumberland
branch of the oregon Short Line.
From General Manager T.. II. South
1t has been learned that the company
owns $500 acres of territory, and the
new town viii be so situated that to
step on the ground of a neighbor II
would be necessary to go distance
Of at least two miles. 1t Is the pur-
pose Of the company, Mr. South states,
TO keep the townsite under the controi
OF the company in so far as the sale
OF liquor Is concerned No saloons will
be allowed to exist within the limits OF
the townsite, nor on any portion OF
the companys domains
with these restrictions imposed, Il
is hoped to build up prosperous
community free from the tempting
vices and demoralizing influences of
irtemperance. 1t Is to be a place
where u high standard of morals Is ex-
peeted TO prevail: with the advantages
of good schools and churches. 1t Will
be very much different than the ordi-
nary run of coal mining camps.
The Elk Coal company has among its
officers a number of we'll known Utah
people who became interested in the
enterprise in the latter part of 1907 and
who were Instrumental In forming the
present organization. Shortly after
this event steps were taken 10 develop
the property along systematic lines and
with the view of making big pro
ducing proposition out of 1t. Mr. South
says there Is no question about tins
being done. that five veins have been
opened which can be traced along the
company's properties for distance oe
five miles; that In width they vary
from few feet to Is feet. Although the
property Is yet In the early stage of de-
velopment II Will become a regular
shipper on Feb. l, when an output of
$50 tons a day Will be maintained In
definately. Until the railroad is com
pleted to camp, the product will be
hauled to the nearest railroad poin-
for shipment to consumers. The quar-
ity of the coal from the Elk mines.
Mr.. South says. is the very best and
In this respect is much like the Rock
Springs Goals.
Preparations are being made to
equip for an output OF 5000 tons
day and this will probably be accom-
plished during the present year The
company has arranged 10 dispose of
one-haIf of this tonnage TO customers
east OF Cheyenne and west OF Pendle-
ton. Or The balance viii come to
Utah or be diverted TO Idaho and
Montana points.
One of the engineers OF the com
pany has reported that the Elk prop
critics contain enough coal TO insure
an output OF 5000 tons per day kor
many years to come that they cannot
be worked out in a generation.
