to criminal negligence of the mine

This Successful Mining Concern Is
 Still Pushing Ahead.

The West Coroha Coal company. the Black Diamond Coal company and the Commercial Coal Mining company are three successful concerns which are being operated under the management of R. H. Palmer as president and c. S. Bissell as secretary and treasurer
 One slope mine is operated at Corona by the West Corona Coal company. Three hundred acres of coal lands are owned at this place, while the capacity of the mine is 200 tons per day. Over 30 men have been kept constantly at work in this mine for several years, the mine working full time during the panic and coal min CTS strike. The mine produces the Coro- na lump for domestic purposes and also high grade steam coal
 The Black Diamond Coal Mining com pany has drift mine at Dora which has capacity of 300 tons per day and em- poys 70 men. This mine has been in operation since 1905 and produces a good quality of steam coal. The company has 160 acres at this place.
 These officers have also recently or ganized the Commercial Coal company which will open mine of large capacity at Dora within the next 30 days Men are at work installing machinery now, and when the mine begins operations 1t will be one of the most modernly equipped in the state
