price Of coal will soar to unheard OF
prices. This Is the opinion Of capable
authorities who have made close in
yestigation Of the subject
In the history of coal mining in the
districts supplying fuel to Idaho there
never has been such low production
as at present. The mines have been
practically idle for long time on ac-
count Of lack Of orders. With the ex-
ception of the Mutual Coal Co., sup
plying coal so far to stockholders
only, there has not been mine in
Utah, for example, working more than
an average Of two days week.
This means that when the fall de-
rnand comes the mines will not be in
a position to supply it. Moreover,
cars will be scarce owing to crop
movements then. Meantime the
mines are forced to the expense of
certain heavy overhead, although
practically idle, and the public will
have TO pay the fiddler in increased
prices.
The investigation referred to dis
closes that there will be no reduction
in price, although there are quotations
on inferior coal at lower than So a
ton, the ruling price IN Utah mines.
For standard coal, such as most peo-
pie must have, the price will be main
tanned at the mine because the ar
with the miners runs until !
May |, next year.
There will be no reduction in the |
freight rate, as announced by the |
railroads and by the interstate com
merce commission head. Joel l..
Priest, general agent of the Oregon
Short Line, said; "There is no pros
Dect whatever of reduction in the
freight rate on COAL nor is there any
rope for cut in the mine prices.
Ne are advised that many people who
ordinarily store coal have deferred do
ny so on the theory that they will be
Ible to buy it later on for less money.
n this they are going to be disap-l
pointed"

A Correction.

In the account of the destruction
by fire of the Woolery residence last
week, The Index seems to have done
an injustice to the night oprator at
the telephone office when the state
ment was made that half hour was
required to get her to respond to a
telephone call to give the alarm. The
operator says she was on duty, being
engaged in getting long distance call
to Boise; that she promptly called
City hall; but could get no response;
that later she tried one Of the cigar
stores and got results; that it was
impossible for her to personally leave
her work to go out on the streets to
either ring the alarm or find someone
to do so. The Index is always anxious
to correct any Incorrect statement.
