ly ventilated and this with the lack
of firing regulations makes the work
ooubly dangerous. The quality of
the West Virginia coal is very fine, in
fact is the best bituminous coal in the
country and is used almost exclusively
in the great coke ovens of that coun-
try. The mining in this region is
nearly all drift work, and the fact that
the seams of coal penetrate in an up
ward direction in the mountains
makes the mining of the coal very
easy. Assisted as they are by the
great natural advantages in mining
there is no reason in the world why
the miners of West Virginia should
not be paid the best wages of any soft
coal miners in the country. The
freight rate at present into Chicago
on coal from this district is $1.75, and
the normal selling price $3.50 to $500.

called "The Price Of Trust Building,''
and takes the Standard on it's triumphant
career of benevolent assimilation" of
independent refineries down to it's biz
fight with the Pennsylvania Railroad
and the Empire Transportation company
in 1877. A certain sworn affidavit OF
Mr.. Rockefeller himself in regard to his
transactions with the widow OF a small
refiner in Cleveland, and the WON an g
answer thereto ara printed in full, and
furnish a significant insight into the
methods OF the Standard in those days.
A feature Of all the numbers has been
the illustrations, especially by portraits,
which have been gathered with ~ much
care and pains as the written records in
the case. Several portraits OF Mr.. Rookie.
Teller, hitherto unpublished, will appear
in future numbers.
