Salt Lake. Utah.-A project which
contemplates tho development on a
large scale of eastern Utah and an ad-
joining portion OF Colorado. involving
the expenditure of $50,000.000. was
made known through the filing of in
corporation articles for what is to be
known as the Provo & Eastern Utah
Railway Company. capitalized at s1O,-

If the vast undertaking is carried

link of 300 miles with the Moffat road,
the building of a huge dam on the

ncres of productive land. and the con-
strnction of big hydro-clectric plant
at the dam to furnish electric power

The plan, It is declared. is being
financed by eastern capitalists. repre-
scented by F. w. Short of Chicago. who
was in Salt Lake recently in connec-
ton with the project, and who says
