II 1 I BINGHAM NEEDS COMPET-EN- T MINERS Many miners who left Bing-ham to try out their luck in the coal mining game have returned to camp with the statement that coal mining is not as lucrative as have been spoken of, and ad-vise other metal miners to stay with their jobs in the Bingham district before seeking employ-ment, in the coal mines. With an increase in the price of lead, mine operators are anxious to recruit their forces and although only recently a fifty cent raise in wages became effective the op-erators of the mines of the camp are needing capable and effici-ent miners badly. What plans can be resorted to to secure com-petent help for the successful operation of thenes seem to be one of the hardest proposi-tions the mining companies have had to contend with since the war. It seems most young men are anxious to seek some clerical job or "position" than be word-ing as "a miner for day's pay. Dinghan lies a j Visastrdus Fire I . The" Bigham. Hotel, built in 1872, and for several years the J leading hotel of the camp was completely destroyed by fire on i Thursday morning. The fire , alarm was turned in at 12:15 A. I M. and in less than an hour the t whole frame building consisting . . of about fifty rooms were prac-- f - - tically demolished. There were several roomers in the building f - who had been working night v shift but all were notified in t time to get them safely away ? i from the building. About twen- - fJa ty minutes after the, both Vol- - L j unteer - Fire departments, had ,! been working on the fire with . I ; the breeze that had been creat- - I ed, it was feared the whole J southern portion of ' the block, : commencing with the Vienna J apa'rtmens, would also become a f prey to the flames,, but the per- - f - sistence of the fighting firemen of Bingham ovenjled once more the Bingham hotel was the fire's I only captive. The Salt Lake 1 County Fire Department at Mur jj ' ray were unofficially called and i arrived here in twenty-thre- e minutes after the call, which I fact should be a matter of great ; interest to the "people of Bing- - s ham. The building and site is .k owned by Mrs. Annie Oddie and , one of the best sites in camp for I a real hotel. The building was ; only insured for $2,500, whilst ? the estimated loss would be at least $10,000. To show his ap- - t 'i preciation of the Volunteer Fire Departments of Bingham and the able and efficient manner of J, their fighting, Jerome Bour-r-'''- " gard,T Thursday afternoon donat-ed $50 to each department.
