Why Keep the Vernal Land Office Open Now
The Commercial club argues to Senator Smoot that removing the Vernal Utah land office ends will harm settlers on the former Uintah Indian reservation. It notes many entrymen lack funds to pay $125 per acre, risks higher costs to prove up in Salt Lake City, and warns of up to 756,600 dollars in losses. The letter cites state finance, local bankers, and future railroad and mineral development as reasons to retain the Vernal office.
