Formed With State Wide.
Field for Effort

The Commercial club traffic bureau
has issued another bulletin In further
ance Of Is campaign for lower coal
rates for salt lake and Utah. The
latest bulletin sums mp the basic
features Of the case against the rail-
road freight rates II Is a. follows;
II has teen stated IN previous bull
letins issued from this bureau that the
railroads directly engaged In the
transportation OF the traffic n Utah
have positively refused an appeals for
the estnbIsheut OF reasonable rates
for the hauling OF coal for the people
81 this state. IL has also been stated
that the Denver a Rio Grande Rail
road company actually controls the
rates OF transportation FOR the coai
supply Of this city. as IL also does that
for various others Of the principal
cities OF the state. as wei as many ot
the important sections OF the state
generally
The principal producing coal mines
Of the state are situated either direct
Is upon or closely adjacent 10 the
lines Of that company. The supply
Of coal within the state accessible
thereto r. virtually both unlimited and
ineNhaustlble. The RIO Grande Rail-
ROAD company therefore, f--fNlldliN
Possesses a monopoly in the trans
portation OF that native commodity,
ard hence IL made the especial object
Of consideration IN this movement for
reasonable rates thereon. The trans
portation ~ coal. under the excessive
rates charged constitutes the most
profitable single feature OF the great
and constantly growing traffic OF that
