From circular just issued by the
secretary of the Miners National union
it appears that 81 900 persons have been
killed in various ways during the past
thirty-one years in English mines. s'Our
modernized mode of working mines, !"
writes the secretary, sis rendering
catastrophes of this kind of a huge
magnitude. Something needs to be
done, and if it be done it must be by
legislative enactments. To do this there
must be an active trade organization,
seeking and trying to enforce necessary
changes in the law"
