According to the hearing transcripts Ernest R. Hyde spoke of building a trading post at the mouth of Comb Wash in 1884, evidently on the site we know as the old Barton Trading Post. The river was contained in a more definite channel then but silting of the river forced the water against the Historian Gary Topping Fred Cly, and Bobby Begay were among those who auditioned. from Salt Lake was in town for a weekend.

As part of the agreement, Southwire will provide back pay totaling $140,000 to 43 women who unsuccessfully sought employment in machine operator positions during 1989, said Irene N. Mee, OFCCP regional administrator in Denver. Southwire also agreed to offer employment to 10 women, with six being hired so far. Southwire employs 170 workers at the West Jordan facility where they manufacture wire and cable products. The agreement is a result of an investigation which began in August, 1990. OFCCP is responsible for enforcing Executive Order 11246 which prohibits federal contractors from discriminating in employment based on race, sex, religion, color, or national origin, and requires contractors to take affirmative action to hire women and minorities.
