Joseph H. Young, Representa-
tive of Guggenheim interests
in Alaska, Comes to Zion.
SAYS LACK OF COAL is
HINDERING DEVELOPMENT
Holds Country Too Big to Be
Hindered by Petty Policies OF
Petty Politicians.

"Alaska Is too big and too rich TO be
much held back by the petty policies OF
petty politicians" said Joseph III. Young
last night In discussing the present busi-
ness and Industrial situation in the north
west.
Mr.. Young who was for years known
here as one OF tho most prominent ran
road men of Utah, having held the Posi-
ton of superintendent Of both the Ore
pon Short Line and Rio Grande railroads
is now the representative of the Gugsen-
helm interests In Alaska and makes his
headquarters in Seattle
When asked as to, his present Official
title, Mr. Young laughed and said;
Forgets Some Titles.

to remember all of them. ] am president
of the Alaska Steamship company. OF the
dent OF the Copper River X Northwestern
Railway company. and-well, i guess
that's enough for your purpose forgot
some of the others.
''What can tell you about conditions
in Alaska? Not much except TO say that
we're prospering up there and that the
outlook is generally favorable.
"The season has been late. but many
prospectors are coming Into the Copper
river region. which is bound to become
one OF the richest mining districts OF the the
region was accessible only at the most
favorable season. now you can come and
20 ut any time.
Lack of Coal Evident.
Questioned as to the agitation which
has for many months been in evidence
regarding the Cunningham coal land
cases, Mr.. Young said I'VE have no di-
rect connection with that Mr., Eccles
has already made our position plain. But
I'll tell you this; Lack OF coal is to some
extent retarding the development OF
Alaska. and I'll add this. Petty polite
ians may use Alaska as a football to ex,
plot their petty policies, but this VIII
not hold the country back. II is too big
and too rich to long be retarded 1t Is
bound to forge ahead
Speaking specifically of the section Of
country in which he Is most directly in
terested Mr.. Young said:
'In addition to the wonderful copper
deposits of the Chitna Copper river region
many prospectors are now undertaking
quartz gold mining and are meeting with
great success. The country is rich In
high grade gold values and is repaying
the efforts of the explorers and prospec-
tors"
Mr.. Young came to Salt Lake for a
conference with Sias w. Eccles acting
head of the American Smelling a. Rein:
Ing company, on business matters and
will be here for several days.

Uncertainty of Position.

During the morning +. A. Sweet presi-
dent of the Consolidated Fuel company.
one of the complainants, concluded his
evidence on cross examination. He re-
surnnce that the Denver & Rio Grande
would handle the cars had prevented the
Southern Utah from ordering It's own
equipment, but they would not hesitate
TO do so when thcy had such assurance.
Motive power had frequently been fur
nished by the Denver & Rio Grande TO
his road and In many ways the road had
been kind. his only grievance being the
manner In which he had been kept out OF
the markets.
Considerable documentary evidence was
filed. among IL being the following tables
to show discrimination by the Hartman
system in favor OF lis own mines.

Grande TO MIR. Sweet on the subject Of
division OF the rates for the haul from
East Hiawatha to Price in which Mr.,
Derrah said that he could not, approve
the proposed division as 1t would reduce
the profits to which the Denver &c Rio
Grande was properly entitled TO for Its
hauling of the coal,
The auditor OF the Southern Utah Is
due to submit some facts concerning the
road and other figures are TO be submitted
by the coal companies this morning.
IL was intlmatcd that the hearing might
end today though there are at least u
dozen more witnesses TO be examined.
,,,I, The last witness of the day was n. A
Williams, superintendent Of the Green
River division of the Denver Rio
Gsands n @a WITH nsa6g@ar'STs S Nt Hsper
ly witness. He failed TO recall
failures to give southern Utah its share
Of Hartman line empties and did not re-
member making refusals He finally said
that he remembered a conversation with
A 3. Apperson superintendent OF The
Southern io}s1n Utah San when the he, latter said in
he had replied, Yes. sir i" but had failed
to attach any Importance to II deemIng
| II all facetious. He admitted, however.
that he had considered that the coke busi-
the Rio Grandc had first cnll on emptIes
and that he had so acted even when To do
so had left loaded cars of the complaining
coal companies standing on the tracks at
Price waiting to be moved. He admitted
giving the preference I, the coke business
for Anaconda and giving foreign cars TO
haul 10 the Stcptoe smelter To the detri-
Inont of the complainants, but denied that
| he had ever done so under Instructions of
superior officials. He said that the rea-
son he had not sent cars TO the coal com
panies was that they would often leave
them standing on the tracks nj Price
and refuse to pey the per diem charge for
them. which he believed justified him
Asked IL he had any authority to collect
per diem or to punish for non payment he
said he had none.
! Mr.. Williams was on the stand when
| adjournment was made until $50 o'clock
I this morning.

4 CROWD, estimated at close to
~ 1000 persons, attended yester-
~ day the fifth annual outing of
the American party at beautiful
Lagoon. AS an innovation from
previous outings, the day was marked
by an absence Of speech making. and
was devoted to picnicking, dancing,
skating, ball games and foot races.
CTS too hot to listen to political ad-
dresses" decided the committee In
charge of the outing, and the day was
given over to informal dinners in the
Lagoon bowery, boating on the lake
ments offered for the entertainment of
the guests.
"It's Just get-together meeting of
friends y said leaders Of the party. In
previous years the club annual outing
has witnessed the discharge of the first
gun of the political campaign. But
politics. if discussed yesterday at La
COON, struck only minor note. The
big crowd, like a happy family on a
days holiday, devoted itself to the
business of having good time-and
succeeded.
