Smashes All Records.

Taken as a whole. the year 1912. in the
opinion of Edward w. Parker, Of the
United States Geological Survey will 90
down into history as one of the most
prosperous the coalminlng industry has
known. The revival in the IRON industry
has stimulated production in the Eastern
States; bumper crops of grain and other
agricultural products have made prosper
lty among the farmers in the Middle West;
decreasing supplies of natural gas and
fuel oil in the Md-Conlinent field have
removed that competition from the coal
mines OF the Southwestern States and
materially increased the demand for coal;
railroad consumption ard activity in
nearly all lines of manufacture have been
IN excess Cf previous years throughout
the country; metal mining in the Rocky
Mountain States has kept pace with i'm
proved conditions elsewhere; and the coal
men have enjoyed the somewhat rare ex-
perlenCe OF fat year. The production
OF anthracite in PENNSYLVANIA exhibits a
decrease due TO the suspension in April
and May pending the settlement of the
wage controversy, but this has been much
more than made up by increased produc-
ton in nearly all the bituminous districts,
so that when the final figures are COM
piled the total production of coal in the
United States will be found TO approx
mate if not exceed the unprecedented
figure of $780, 900, 900 short tons, surpass-
Ing the previous high record Of 1910 by
about 10 per cent. But for the decrease
in the production of anthracite it would
certainly reach that figure.

Hostility to Conservation

Hostility to the conservation policy
reached it's climax in the Senate yesteF-
day. when Senators. chiefly Democrats.
exhibited their Willingness TO jeopardiZe
the rivers and harbors bill by adding
thereto the Connecticut River dam pih
as amended thus mourning al least a
likelihood that the President would Neto
the entire measure. Senator BrandeSee
who has worked consistently and dih-
gently for this measure, offered II IN the
form in which il was reported to the
Senate and in which il would undoubted-
" have commanded the approval OF
President Taft. but the enemies of con-
servation. headed by Senator Jones. OF

Mclean and the Democratic opponents OF
the conservation policy, insisted on SUD-
stituting the amended bill. which. II VIII

the United states may share the profits
accrung from the water power wnich
will be developed by the proposed dam.
II is not known what course President
Taft will pursue in this dilemma. That
he would approve the bill only with the
utmost reluctance. i'll view of the SEN
ate's action. is certain. That he might be
persuaded TO do so because OF other and
meritorious provisions contained in the
bill is possible There remains, however
chance that the House Will insist that
either the entire measure be stricken
from the bill or that the provision elimi-
mated by the Senate be restored. If the
House takes this course it will not be
because Of any love for the conservation
policy by the Democratic majority. but
solely because that majority may be wise
enough to realize that as the amend
ment stands it places the entire measure
in jeopardy. There is a good deal OF
sympathy for Senator Brandegee in this
matter. He has worked so hard and so
consistently for this legislation, and has
