MIXED AGAIN
BY ECCLES|ASTS
How Stockholders in ShOshOne
Power Company We're
BunkOed.
LYMAN FAMILY HAD
FINGER in THE PIE
Light Upon Another Church
Promotion Scheme Similar
to Parkinson Deal.

With its corporate existence oblit-
Grated by failure of its officers TO pay
the state corporation tax; its franchises
expired by limitation and failure to
perform any and all work looking to-
ward the completion Of the announced
development of power at any Of the six
locations claimed in the company pros
pectus; its assets in cash dissipated and
frittered away by its officers and board
of directors; its stockholders robbed of
their good money both in principal and
interest, the Shoshone Power COM
pany now lies dead before the people,
the victim Of the greed of its promot-
ers and another example of graft in
the high ecclesiastical circles of the
Mormon church. Who did ita Ask F.
NJ. Lyman, president Of the twelve
apostles; he was also president Of the
Shoshone Power company.
Originally incorporated under the
laws of Idaho for FIVE million shares of
a par value Of 81 each, largely placed
through the bishops of the various
wards of the Mormon church at par
where possible, still some sold as a spe-
cial favor as low as so cents, today it
is worth nothing.
What Was Claimed.
Claiming TO have appropriated Sho-
shone falls for water power TO tho ex
tent of 100 second feet with net eff
fective head of 2l0 feet; Augnr falls.
$500 second feet under 130 feet of head.
Twin falls, 1000 second feet and 120
feet of head, making a total net horse
power of 46,131, which were TO be in
stalled upon the different sites at an
estimated cost of $2,4S7 ,645, with 200
| miles of transmission line TO cost $780,
600. making the total cost Of the three
Snake river plants So, ,2S7 .645. The three
appropriations on the Duchesne river
call for 10000 net horsepower, with 100
miles of transmission to cost SO. $50, 900,
| making a total cost of SJ.437 ,645. Upon
this expenditure the returns were estl-
mated at $3,S06,550 for sales Of power,
less 100000 sinking fund, towards the
redemption of a $5,000,000 bond issue,
$4,000 interest on bonds and $4,000
cost of operation, being u fraction less
| than 81 per annum per net effective
| horsepower, leaving net earnings to be
distributed TO the fortunate stockhold-
| ers at the rate of 60 per cent per an
mum.
People Put Up Cash.
The people under the facile hands of
the bishops came through for a while
freely Then slowly. more slowly, in
fact so slowly that something must be
| done to keep the Lyman families and
| their friends going. The stock was
worcestershire. Something had TO be
done. This is what they did;
