said:

The fight was Won and lost

MINE PRODUCTION IN
SOUTHWEST VIRGINIA

st Paul, Va, Sept l5.-Sep-
tember has started off with
coal production in this field far
exceeding the record, consider
ing that most of the mines are
i'm need of men. ON Friday the
Chnchheld Coal Corporation
mined and loaded more coal
than ever in It's history.
The remarkable development of
this company is due, mainly, in
it's unique connection with the
Central South markets, and
what is practically an impossi
bilitv of there ever being a lack
of railroad cars. The Carolina,
Clinchfield and Ohio Railway,
which serves the mines of this
company, is operated on the
theory that it Is better to carry
idle cars than 10 have tonnage
on its hands which can not be
moved for lack of them.
Southwest Virginia, because
of such development as Is being
done by the Clinehfield Com
pany, is fast taking a strong
position in the public mind as a
great coal mining field. Being
the latest developed, the mining
plants are the result of the best
mine practice in other sections

The reception rendered 10 Mr.
Slemp and his distinguished
colleague, Hon. Duncan r. Nc

week were almost without par

At Appalachia, a cOnserya-

people. AT Norton it is more
difficult to be exact, for the rea-
