PRICE OF COAL
TO DEPEND ON
FREIGHT RATES
State Fuel Advisory Com
mittee Fixes Price for
Home Size Coal in Boise
at $8.90.
Home slzze real which «ells for $3
at the mine will be sold In Boise at
js.nn a ton after Nov. 1. This action
was taken hy the state fuel advisory
committee Thursday afternoon. Au
thority was asked to establish for
Idaho retailers a gross margin of 321
per ton. The permission was granted
by Federal Fuel Administrator Gar
field. The price In the different towns
of the state will hereafter depend en
tirely upon the freight rate from the
mine. On coal that sells at 33 at the
mine the freight to Boise Is 33.90 a
ton. This will make the cost to the
consumer 3S.90 after the first of the
month when the rew regulation be
comes effective.
Idaho has been the first state to ask
and receive authority to regulate local
coal prices. It Is also the first state
to ask tthat coal shipments be given
priority over all unperishable freight.
This request has been made for all of
the northwest states. Favorable ac
tion la expected by Judge Lovett, head
af the priority board.
ASKS FOR AUTHORITY.
Before the state fuel advisory com
mittee adjourned Thursday afternoon
ex-Governor F. R. Gooding, federal
fuel administrator for Idaho, sent an
urgent message to the federal fuel ad
ministrator setting forth the impera
tive needs of Idaho for an adequate
coal supply and asked that the state
fuel advisory committee be authorized
to use all possible means to secure
priority rights for coal over every
other commodity of not perishable na
ture, or of extreme public necessity.
Conservation of coal was strongly
urged by the state fuel advisory com
mîtes. It is estimated that 325,000
tons of coal will be demanded for Ida
ho for the year. If »very household
and every Industrial concern will use
the strictest economy it Is believed
that from 10 to 12 per cent of the sup
ply can be conserved. If this is done
It will mean the saving of 1000 cars
of coal. This means that the cars
will also be available for other ship
ments.
The advisory committee took the
View that the average family can save
at least a half ton of coal during the
season. If a corresponding saving Is
made at the industrial plants, the con
servation of fuel by this means will
exceed 1000 cars for Idaho.
COUNTY SOLVES OWN PROBLEM.
Teton county, according to Thomas
Picks, a member of the advistory
committee, has solved Its own coal
problem. The mines of that section
have been opened up enough to sup
ply the local demand. Every ton of
fuel that has beeh mined, has been
taken by Teton county residents.
There is hot enough to supply other
sections, but it lessens the entire de
mand of the state to a noticeable ex
tent and promises greater relief for
the future.
The committee urged the use of
wftod for fuel wherever possible. In
Fremont and Madison counties many
have heeded this suggestion and large
quantities of cord-wood have been cut
on the forest reserve.
Ex-Governor Gooding says that the
needs of the state in the line of fuel
will be supplied if Judge Lovett will
grant priority rights for coal. "The
railroads are making every effort to
handle the increased traffic," said he.
"and It is not their fault if the cars
are not available. If we get the pri
ority rights, It means that cars will
be at the mines so that the operators
can work to full capacity and this will
Insure an adequate furl supply."

Ultimatum Delivered by the
Electrical Workers' Un
ion to Interstate Utilities
Telephone Company.
The public utilities commission has
been informed that the Electrical
Workers' union has delivered an ulti
matum to the Interstate Utilities com
pany of Wallace to reinstate chief
operators and ottur employes who have
been discharged on or before next
Saturday, or a general strike of em
ployes of the company will follow. It
is held by the union that the dis
charges took piace in violation of an
agreement entered into last June
when a general strike over the system
was narrowly prevented. Operators
were discharged at lone, Spirit Lake
and Rathdrum.
It is also alleged by the union that
three of the Wallace operators were,
compelled to quit their positions on
account of intimidation by company
officials. Union members assert that
under the agreement last .Tune line
men were to receive $4.60 per day and
that they now have proof that the
company has attempted to secure line
men to take the places of members
of the union at $90 a month.
The settlement of the present diffi
culty now rests with the answer of the
telephone officials to the ultimatum •• f
the union. Union members declare th.it
the company will have to abandon its
alleged methods of intimidation ,ind
coercion of employes and show that it
intends to tive up to the agreement
