words in saying so" said c. H. PicksnS.
president Of the Board OF Governors of

with Mr.. Taft, sat next to him at the

listened to the oprey.
Il don't know anything more pleasing

Of children with their fresh faces" That
was but one Of many expressions concern
ing the school children at so many school,
houses along the route Of the drive.

The president commented on the many

with the ride from start to finish.
Plans had been made at the den to have

COAL OUTPUT
tAG TONNAGE INCREASE 10 RE-
MARkABlY GREAT OVER
SIX MONTHS AGO.
FACTORIES RUNNING
ALMOST EVERY COAL PRO0UC-
ING COUNTY IN THE STATE
SHOWS AN INCREASE.

Denver.-Colorado. during the first
six months of this year, produced
1.S23.412 tons of coal. which repre-
sents an increase of 4O6,936 tons over
the same period of 1908. State Coal
Mine Inspector Jones, who delivered
his semi-annual report to Governor
Shafroth, believes the total tonnage
for the present year will be more than
10,000,000. At an average price OF
$3.50, the record shows that the coal
industry in Colorado amounts annu-
ally to upward of $45.000.o00.
A large share of the coal is sold at
prices ranging from Sc to 50 in Ne
braska, Kansas and other points. east
and west of the state. so that the fig
ure given is conservative.
THE increase in tonnage" said
Jones. "is a safe indication Of the
manner in which Colorado industries
have resumed operations this year.
Factories that were closed during the
early period of 1908 are running full
time now, and the demand upon the
coal mines is greater The first six
months of the year always make the
lighter record in coal consumption.
and hence l look for tonnage OF
more than 100000 for the year"
With the exception of Jefferson. La
Plata, MonteZuma and Weld counties,
every county in the state has shown
an increase. Las Animas leads in pro-
duction. with 2,145,S17 tons, but the
greatest increase is shown in Huer-
fano county. which produced 815.171
tons. an increase OF 147,393 tons over
