COAL MINES OF UTAH
EMPLOY $500 MEN
Diegcrs Arc Paid Better Than S3 n
Day and Turn Out 10000
Tons Per Diem.

There are employed today in tho coal
mines in the vicinity OF Price. between
5000 and 1000 men The miners are
paid better than SO a day. making a
total pay roll for the various mines
OF over $4,000 each day. or $4,000 ii
week. and $500. 900 a month. These fig
urcs are probably considerably cX-
ceeded; they at least are not excess
slve. The various mines have working
forces now OF about as follows: Hia-
watha, 100 men: Cedar Creek. 25; Castle
Gate. 500 Winter Quarters, 500, u. P.
$50; Clear Creek. 500; Kennelworth, 900.
Sunnyside. 200. A miner knocks down
and brings to the surface on nm aver
age probably two tons or more of coal
each day and often several times that
quantity. making the daily output OF
the mines down there over 10, 600 tons
every working day. Some of the Oldest
and best mines are attaining great
distances into the sides OF the noun
tains. increasing the operating cxpens-
es somewhat. There is practically no
shaft coal mining today In Utah mines.
However. some OF the inclncs Will
show a 35 per cent grade. which adds
considerably to tho cost per ton OF
coal delivered at the mouth of the tun-
Dcls. Carbon county, with it's thou
sands of acres of rich coal beds, is to-
day one of tho most important counties
in the state. and In only n few years
Emery county, which has been rather
neglected in this respect. will show up
coal resources equal to those of Carbon.

CATTLE OWNERS UP IN ARMS.
Take Umbragc at Operation OF Law
And Seek Special Session.

Cattle owners all over the state arc be-
coming very much excited over the oper-
alton of the law which compels tho
tuberculous cattle, and the governor
emphatically against carrying out any
such law. AS noticed in Tho News pre-
viously. tho attitude of tho government
In regard to such infected cattle tx serl-
ously complicatiDg the situation. and
making the enforcement of the state law
serious matter.
The government countenanccs the sale
of the hide and unaffected parts of the
condemned animal, while the law OF this
state orders complete destruction OF
evory part-hido and all. II is claimed
that the position of the government
would not have been 30 easy, had 1t not
been asccrtaincd that 10 per cent of tho
cattle of New England were tubercu-
destruction OF all these animals would
have resulted In overwhelming loss. as
neither tho state nor the government could
afford to rcmuncrate the owners. So IL
slaughter the diseased sections of tho
animal should be destroyed. and the rest
allowed TO bo sold. Now the cattle own
crs In Utah cannot see why the state law
should be so much more comprehensive
and go so much farther than the govern
ments position, and there is talk of
calling on the governor to summon an
extra session OF tho Legislature to have
the present drastic law changed.
AS things stand now, tho state ycter-
marian finds the enforcement of the law
a path literally bcstrcwn with thorns
and as no says there Is nothing left for
him to do but to carry out tho plain pro-
visions OF the law. he would breathe
easier were he to know that an extra
session of the Legislature would be called
to straighten things out,
