ROBE VALUE OF HILL ROADS
Government Experts Examining Conn
panies' Books.

Though little is permitted to leak
out there are those who say that
the expert examination now being
made at st. Paul by the interstate
commerce commission covering the
valuation of terminals and properties
of the Great Northern and Northern
Pacific roads will be revelation when
it is completed.
Eleven experts in all, under the di-
rection of Dwight C. Morgan, are at
work on the books and nothing is be-
ing neglected. Every voucher is, ex-
amined and, when these fail to give
the information desired, the vaults
and book shelves of the two concerns
are further invaded.
Where a value of nearly $80,000,O0O
was given the big st. Paul and West
ern terminals of the roads the figures
compiled, it is asserted, do not show
valuation greater than $12,0O0,OOO.
The same is the case with the vari-
Gus branches. Testimony was offered
in the rate cases by the roads to show
cost of many millions, but the books
in the majority of cases give, it is
said, a mere fraction of the figures
claimed.
The examination now being made
is in connection with the Pacific coast
lumber rate cases and its success may
cause inquiry into the value of other
lines. The state railway and ware
house commission is interesting itself
in the examination in the belief that
the figures secured may be useful in
the state freight rate injunction suits
now before the federal court.

bill was in violation of the article in
the states constitution which forbids

Chief Justice Start wrote the opinion.
The attack on the appropriation of
100000 for roads and bridges, made
by the last legislature and divided
among the different counties of the
state, was made by Senator L. O..
Cooke of Wabasha.

reached.
At the time the bill was passed he
objected to it and stated that he
thought it unconstitutional. After the

MAKES 667 PER CENT PROFIT
Charges Filed Against Great Northern
Express Company.

The Great Northern Express COM
pany is making SGT per cent net
profit on its investment and it's rates
should be cut in half, according to
James Manahan and States Senator
B. E. Sundberg, who filed with the
state railroad commission at St.
Paul a complaint asking that the
rates be reduced. The complaint
names as defendants the Great North
ern Express company, the Lake Su-
perior company, limited, and the Great
Northern Railway company.
1t is alleged that the Lake Superior
company owns S997,50O of the $1,000
900 stock of the express company and
that the Great Northern. in turn owns
the Lake Superior company; that the
general officers draw large salaries
from each of the three companies
simultaneously and the result is an
unnecessary and unreasonable operat-
ing expense placed ultimately on the
shippers.

MEAT INSPECTOR RULES
Farmers Killing Hogs for City Mar
ket Must Bring Carcasses for
Examination.

Continued telephone requests to visit
local meat markets to inspect hogs
which had been killed in the country
and brought here for sale, brought out
the positive statement from ]. W. Ire
man. city veterinarian, yesterday that
he would not inspect a single hog at
a meat market. The veterinarian said
farmers had the right to kill hogs
themselves but that they would have
slaughter houses to be examined and
passed upon by one of the city meat
inspectors before placed on sale in
the city. The inspection viii cost moth
ing. All of this, he said must be
done at the slaughter houses where
city inspectors are working,
Dr. fireman also issued positive or
ders that the farmers must leave heart,
liver, lungs, head and tongue on the
hog, held by natural attachments, or
the whole carcass Will be kept off the
local market.

NitrOglyceTine Is Left on Safe Found

Two more robberies were committed
in salt Lake early yesterday morning
Of a character which indicates beyond
doubt that the city is filled with yegg-
men.
Fuse, caps and nitro-glycerine were
found on the safe Of HendersOn's Com
mission company, Sixth South and
State streets, yesterday morning.
Thieves secured valuable papers from
drawers in the strong box, which the
proprietor, J. B. Anderson, had left
open, not desiring to have the door of
his safe cracked. The other burglary
was in Harry COOmbs drug store,
State and Fourth South streets. where
burglars broke open the safe, taking
$50 in pOstoffice funds and $50 in cur
rency belonging to the store, and two
checks, one drawn on d. II. Christen-
sen for $3.50 and the other in favor
of Harry COombs for $50 on Walker

from the Henderson Commission COM
pany it was also found that five So

A SALTLAKE BOOSTER

Speaking of boosters, it occurs to many
people that there are several different
people boost by investments others boost
by exploitation Of one product or another;
again, some people prOmulgate glowing
preachments in print-and countless others
boost in their one particular way with
one ultimate END in view
Yet the cause of Salt Lake and Utah
has never found q more ardent champion
than Joseph L. Eldredge, jr., assayer in
charge of the United States assay office
in Salt Lake. He may not have heraided
himself from the hOusetOps as a booster,
and perhaps his observations on Salt
Lake have not been thunderous intOna-
tons that reverberated throughout the
land, but he boosts in an effectual way
among effective people.
Il believe IN Salt Lake" said Mr..
Eldredge, "and ] believe in Utah. / don't
think that the story of the city or the
state has been half told to the nation.
TIE narrative has hardly been started.
And I don't mean to reflect upon the
unceasing energy Of those who have been
spreading the gospel of Utah, either. /
merely wish to emphasize the fact that
the present is such a marvellous trans
formation of the past and that the fu-
ture holds so much Of brimming prom
Use that not even we who have lived
through the growth and development can
realize the magnitude Of it.
= wish to call attention to one fact
exploitation of Utah resources. 1 was
talking to a prominent dry farmer who
told me that a million dollars worth Of
wheat had been grown on dry farms OF
Utah during the past season. Consider
ing the infancy of the dry farm move
ment in this state and the wide areas
that are yet untouched or untitled think
dry farming will produce a great por-
ton of the states wealth within the next
few years. Back of all our progress, of
course, is the wealth of resources. Every
time 1 have discussed Utah as a coming
state with men from the east or west
the first question they ask is:

"One can look past the big buildings
in Salt Lake, the new railroads and the
expansion Of the old, the growth in pOpu-
latiOn and the increased prosperity, to the
cause of it ALL For, if there were not
some fundamental reason for the growth
there would be no growth. No one will
dispute that When you show an east
ern man that irrigation and dry farming
are being pushed to the limit and find
ing ready investors; when you point to
the output of mines, the resources that
are being developed and the reserves still
in the hills untOuChed-yOu make an ar
gument for the state that sticks. And
when you show that Salt Lake is the
