Show We are now told that the coal mines of the state are likely! to have to shut down on account of a lack of market for the coal. The East is freezing to death and we have coal to spare, and yet the transportation charges make it almost prohibitive to ship over the mountains and across the plains to where it is needed. This means great things in the future for Utah, because in time the big manufacturing plants which are using vast amounts of coal in the eastern states will be moved here because it will be cheapor to move the manufacturing plant than it will to try and move the coal to it. |
