UTAH BREAKS RECORD.
More than Three and Quarter Mil
lion Tons of Coal Mined in 1918.

The production of coal in Utah in
1913 was 3,254,S2S short tons, with
value at the mines of 1884 ,127, ac-
cording to E. w Parker of the United
States Geological Survey. In 1912.
for the first time, Utah's coal produc-
ton exceeded 100000 tons, the output
in that year amounting to 3,o16,149
short tons, valued at $5,046,451, gain
of more than half a million tons and of
nearly 100000 over 1911. Nearly
quarter of a million tons more was
mined in 1918, with a further increase
in value of $337,676. In 1912 the in
dustry suffered from scarcity OF
labor due to the exodus of foreign
mines to the scene of war In the
Balkan States, but the returns for 1913
indicate plentiful supply of labor,
as an increase of more than 500 men
were employed in the coal mines COM
pared with the preceding year.
The increased production in 1913 ap-
pears to have been due principally to
activity among the metalliferous mines
and the smelters. as nearly all of the
increased production was in the
quantity of coal made into coke, this
short tons out of a total increase of
23S,679 tons.
Nearly 80 per cent. of the total coal
production of Utah is mined in Carbon
county, which contains large part of
the great Uinta Basin. This county
produced in 1913 g,830,102 short tons.
out of total for the state of 3,254,S28
tons.
The industry was practically free
from labor troubles in 1913, only one
company reporting idleness from this
cause, and only five men being disaf-
fected. No strikes of any kind were
reported in 1912 and only one of three
days in 1911 Practically all the
mines of the state work eight hours
day.
According to statistics collected by
the United States Bureau of Mines
there were II fatal accidents in the
coal mines of Utah in 1918, a decrease
of one from 1912.

Senate Democrats to get into a dead

has quit the contest. He is very proud
of the support that the veterans at To-

the support he had from many other
quarters. The fact that he is Re
publican is all that initiated against
him. His splendid army record and
the attention he has given to the COM
