M. Slagle, connected with the alee organisation. These gentlemen slate that found the local shareholders they very much satisfied with their investment In Mutual Coal. Those who hare ordered coal for a few yeara have already eaved the price of the stock and one thing that the visitors wished to impress on shareholders is the ' advantage of getting in early wl'h coal orders. This is a big help all around as summer orders enable the continued operation of the mine. The coal mines of this state are all operating on short time working but a few days a week owing to the falling ofr In the demand for coal. This la partly due to the electrification of large commercial plants and to the more general use of oil by the railroads. Mr. Slagle says that while some of the mines in the Utah coal districts have been working but one or two days a week the Mutual property baa been able to keep things moving four days each week.
