MOVEMENT OF IDAHO
CROPS is A PROBLEM
Oregon Short Line Officials Say, How
ever, That They Are Equal to
Emergency.

Movement of tho Idaho crops is
again being discussed by prominent
men of the Gem state, and also by
business men Of Salt Lake City. 1t is
asserted that the crops of the Snake
River valley will be 25 per cent
heavier than they were last year, and
that the Oregon Short Line Railroad
company will be taxed to its utmost to
care for them.
Discussing the situation last night
J. a. Reeves, general freight agent for
the Oregon Short Line, said;
The railroad company has been
preparing for the increased work
in Idaho for several years. Double
track has been laid and the equip
ment is constantly being in
creased and improved. There is
heavy crop in Idaho, and it will
be no light task to handle it, but
believe the Oregon Short Line
will be equal to the emergency.
The hay. grain and beet crops are
better than in previous years, but
we expect to furnish the farmers
service that Is satisfactory.

STONE CONTRACT is
UNDER DISCUSSION
Question of Filing a Bond Is Taken
Up and May Soon Be
Settled.

The capitol commission occupied the
greater part of yesterday morning in
The discussion Of difficulties between
James Stewart s. Co., aud the Consol-
dated Stone company, pertaining to the
granite which is to be used in the ex-
terror construction of the new capitol
building. The commission has for some
time been endeavoring to arbitrate the
difficulties between the two concerns
az regards the matter of filing bond,
and from reports at hand it is thought
that the situation will be cleared in
time for the Consolidated company TO
begin the delivery of granite within a
few days.
The Consolidated company has been
unable SO far to procure bond because
of the fact that the bonding company
will not guarantee the quality Of the
marble. No decision has as yet been
reached as to the quality of the gran
ite to be used.

MAY BUILD CAR LINE
TO BRIGHTON RESORT
Utah Light g. Railway Company 1
Considering an Extension From
Holiday.

Survey work on an extension of the
Holiday line of the Utah Light &
Railway company was begun yesterday.
The line, if it is deemed feasible, will
be built about five miles to the mouth
OF the Big Cottonwood canyon, with
the intention of eventually continuing
to the head Of the canyon. The work
begun yesterday is only preliminary,
but the officials of the company esti-
mate that it will not take long to run
IN the location line after the pre-
liminary work is done,
Work of construction will be started
this fall, although 1t is possible that
it will be postponed until the early
spring. After the line to the south
Of the canyon is completed an extern
sion to Granite probably will be
started, and the road, according to
present tendencies, will eventually
reach Brighton, at the head of the
canyon, and will make trolley con-
nection with the beautiful canyon that
has been described by experts as
eclipsing anything in the Yellowstone
park or the Yosemite park.
The direct incentive for the extern
sion of the railroad is the need for
transportation facilities by the farm
ers along the proposed line.

Mr.. Odell notes that in 1905 the coun-
try was great expanse OF waste and a
person traversng 1t had to make long
drives in order to find a place TO stop at
