He will also eomp'.Ie the information in lxaik form, so that succeeding Itoards of equalization uiay know exactly the findings of the present survey and the work will not need to be n?ieated at any time nor will it require an expert to explain it. Some tentative pnqiositions have lieen made that the rcjmrt should be printed, and this is under consideration. The state has furnished copies of what material it has to the United Htates geological survey at Washingand it is possible that the ton, 1). rintiiifr will lie arranged through that l, authority. As a purely state proxs:-tioprinting would require legislative action. From this reMrt the condition of all the known coal fields in Utah so far as they are ascertained by careful surface survey and geolng'cul study ia made clear. Uv recording progress in extraction from time to time, and any other information hich may come to hand, it ia felt that the record can eaaily lie kept up to date and prove of great value to the state apd its eoal oierationa. William Hailey, the president of the state board of wqualixation, hai returned to Zion from Logan, where he made the filial arrangementa with covering the form the report is to taka wbeta completed. This may be accomplished by the end of the present year. Pe-ten- INJUNCTION NOW ASKED AGAINST THE UNIONISTS INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Oct. 28. Efforts were made through affidavits read in the federal court here yesterday to establish that cool miners and ojierators in the unionized fields of the country are engaged in an unlawful conspiracy, liegun in 18! 8, with the aim of restricting the ronqiet ition in n the eoal market of the operators in West Virginia. The affidavits were offered in support of an by the Horderlnnd Coal mr-- 1 Miration, operating in West Virginia, for a temporary injunction restricting the United Mine Workers of America in its efforts to organize the field centering around Mingo roiinty, which has lieen the storm center of recent disturbances. Counsel opposing issuance of the injunction said in court that they would offer affidavits to disprove the complainants contentions. As a part of an injunction the court also was asked to act aside wage agreements between union miners and with counsel emphasizing the plea to enjoin collection of the union s check off, a system by which operators withhold the union dues of miners from their wages. Preliminary to the reading of the affidavits the hearing was marked by a sharp legal battle, which resulted in the discharge as defendants of the United Mine Workers of America and its twenty-fiv- e district organizations, as also union men not residents of Indiana. Thia left only two union men, who are mem-be- n of the unions executive board, as defendants, but it was indicated if any order were granted it might hind others having knowledge of it. Two Indiana ojierators and four operating companies aim were left defendants, despite an effort to win of the suit against them. non-unio- ojicr-ator- s, dia-m'ss- al Editor Has His Say. guaranteed turer of or your money Brick of An Kinds PROFESSIONAL Telephone 1C8W Office Price Commercial and 8avlnea Bank Bldg., Price.
