KEMNERER COAL
|. TO THE RAILROADS
Mines Being Worked to the
Limit to Supply Demand
and Relieve the Shortage
in the West.

That the mines in Wyoming are
working steadily TO relieve the coal
shortage situation In the intermountain
states Is evident from the following
taken from the kemmerer Camera
which shows that most of the Goa! sup
ply from the Kemmercr mines goes to
the railroads..
A representative OF the Camera re-
Gently interviewed officials OF the var
ious coal companies with a view to get
ting the real facts in regard to the coal
situation. The Information furnished
rs puts a light upon the situation
somewhat different from that cast from
the luminous sheets of the Republican.
PENALTIES PROVIDED.
II Is we'll known that there Is prac-
tically a coal famine throughout the
country, due TO the unprecedented de-
mand for fuel. The Kemmercr Coal
company, for instance, has been for a
number of years under contract with
about eight different railroad COM
panies to furnish them coal. Many of
these contracts provide for exceedingly
heavy cash penalties for failure to fur
nish the amount OF coal demanded.
This company has been utterly un-
able to NIL all these contracts. and for
some time past has not been selling a
dollars worth Of commercial coal for
the reason that all the coal It could
prodace-and more-has been required
to till its bonded contracts.
COAL REouislTioNED.
one day last week-and this was no
exception-4e 900 tons OF the $4,000
tons produced by the Kemmerer Coal
company, was requisltioned by the
Oregon Short Line under its contract
of long standing, made at n time when
the coal situation was normal. Tele-
graphic appeals for coal by the score
are being refused daily although the
highest of prices are offered. and In its
efforts to nh its contracts the employees
OF the local coal company from tho
manager down are going without the
better grades OF coal. These conditions
make 1t unfortunate not only for the
company which would realize much
greater profits II II could discard it's
contracts and sell its coal commercial
~, but for the people of this section
who are forced to use cheaper grade

U. S. COURTS CANNOT
FIX TAX VALUATIONS
Assessments Ordered in Sew
eral Counties in Conflict
With State Constitution

Decisions of the United
States Circuit Court of Appeals
compelling various counties of
Arkansas to assess their prop
erty at a 100 per cent valua-
ton to meet outstanding in
debtedness, were declared in
conflict with Arkansas con-
stitution in a decision of the
Arkansas Supreme Court hand
ed down at Little Rock last
Monday.
This court said the Ark
ansas' Supreme Courts deci-
sion, "is the final arbiter on
construction of the Arkansas
constitution and laws of the
State and is not influenced in
those matters with decisions of
other courts further than the
responsiveness of views eX-
pressed in those decisions"
The case ruled upon was ap-
pealed from Johnson county,
where the circuit court had re-
fused a mandamus filed against
w. A. Meek, county assessor,
and the Board of Equalization
to compel an assessment of 100
cents on the dollar on the coun-
tvs property.
The Arkansas Supreme
Courts decision held that the
Arkansas constitution demands
uniformity of assessments but
does not demand assessments
on 100 per cent valuations. The
legislature, the decision said,
has the power to determine the
basis of valuation and how that
basis should be ascertained. It
is the function of the Arkansas
commission, the opinion further
held, to preserve the uniform
ity.
The supreme court holds
that if tax assessments in Ark
ansas are not uniform, it is the
duty of the State Tax Commits
sion to remedy the defect.

SOLDIER LEFT NOTE
INDICATING SUICIDE

An army coat and hat were
found on the Newport ferry
boat Tuesday morning, and a
note found in a room at a
hotel in Newport which
had been occupied by David
Meeker would indicate that
the writer committed suicide.
Meeker had been in Newport
only a short time, and some
are inclined to believe that he
is a deserter, and wrote the
note and placed his clothes on
the boat as a ruse. The note
follows:
ITO whom it may concern.
|, David Meeker, am about to
commit suicide by drowning
myself in the river. My life has
been one of failure and | do
not wish to live longer. | am a
