COAL PRODUCTION
OF UTAH IS LARGE

With the exception OF the record
breaking year 1913, Utah mined
more coal in 1914 than in any pre-
vious year. The production ia 1914
was 3,103,O36 short tons, valued at
$~4,935,454 according to G. E. Lesh-
er recently appointed coal statistic
ian of the United States geological
survey, vice Edward w. Parker, re-
signed. The decrease as compar-
ed with 1913 was 141,792 short tons
in quantity and $44S,673 in value.
The returns for 1914 indicate q
plentiful supply of labor. showing a
decrease in the average of but 46
men employed.
The decreased production of coal
in Utah in 1914, a compared with
1913, appears to have been due in
part to general depression of busi-
ness in the last nine months of the
tonnage necessary to meet the re-
quirments of the railroads and, aft
er the beginning of the war, of coal
and coke supplied to the large cop
per smelters in Utah and Montana.
Other causes contributing to the de-
crease in production in 1914 were
the smaller demand for domestic
sizes because of the generally mild
weather throughout the year in the
territory served by Utah coal, and
the displacement of a certain amount
of the Utah coal in the Pacific coast
markets by reaso of the removal of
the tariff on foreign coal, and the
resumption of work by the miners
in British Columbia after the settle
ment of their labor trou bles.
Notwith standing the decrease ia
thetutal production for the year.
the amount of coal made into coke
shows an increase of 32,224 tons
For the first months of the year the
demand for coke was sc great thai
the coking plants were operated to
capacity, but with the curtailmen'
in copper production this demand
fell off sharply.
The efficiency record of the utab
miners shows a considerable gain in
1914 as compared with other recent
years in that the output per man
per day is higher. There were
ALP men employed in 1917 for an
average of 21O days, and the aver
age output per man was 755 tons for
the year and SO tons for each work
ing day. In 1913, Abs men work
ed an average of 273 days ard pro
duced an average per mar ot tN"
tons for the veal and 81 tons per
day. In 1912 the average pr'dur-
tio' was 900 tons and BIS tons re-
spectively. The increased produc-
ton per man per day in 1914 is ac-
counted for by the increase in TIE
use of machines and in the guam
tity and percentage Of coal mined
by them.
The industry was practically free
from labor troubles in 1919, as only
$50 men were on strike, with an
average loss of time OF II days
each during the year.
The ninth United States census
1S7O) recorded the first lrodnc-
ton of coal in Utah with an output
of $500 tons. Ten years later the
production amounted 20 less than
$1,000 tons. 1t assumed some inn
portance in 1882, when the pr,duC-
ton amounted to 100000 tons. and
reached the million-ton mari. in
1900. In 1909 it exceeded 200.
900 tons. In 1913 it was ~3,245.S2S
tons and in 1914 it was ~3,10".'36
tons.

A Civil War

See here, John and Mary. you and

here and let me talk to you. Yes, tell
all the rest to come. too. II they like.
There. now. stand around my chair
and listen.
I saw the most Of you at the camp
fire, last night. How you did laugh
when Comrade Phil Check told some
Of his funny war stories! And then
Sue and Bess both shed a few tears
when David James told something Of
the story Of his prison life-of his es.
cape and recapture and Of his coming
home so weak and out with dis
ease and starvation that his mother
did not know him. The rest Of you
looked pretty sober, too, and no won.
der. And l thought when the ex-gover-
nor talked about the meaning of our
flag and the bravery of the men who
fought for 1t in wartimes that John
and Will and Harry almost wished for
another war that they might show to
the world that the boys Of these days
are just rs true and brave as those Of
81. am of opinion. too. that when
you were told of the life. character
and hospital service Of our good Mrs.
Governor Harvey and other women
like her you girls almost wished that
you, like them, might go to war and
care for sick and wounded soldiers.
While 1t does us old veterans good
to get together now and then in such
a campfire as we had last night, we
do not at all wish to have you get from
US a love for a We do wish you to
love your country as you love your
homes, but we hope that as you grow
into manhood and womanhood you will
set a very high value on the blessings
Of peace. We hope that when our ma
ton has hard questions to settle.
whether at home or abroad. you and
others like you will find some other
way to do than fight over them. Don't
fight unless 1t seems certain that great
wrongs car be conquered and righted
in no other way. Then fight for the
right, and fight hard.
When we boys went to war in 81
we verify thought the only way to
ave our country from disunion and
make it In truth the land Of the free
and the home Of the brave was to
obey President Lncoln's call for. men
to fight for the honor Of ourssfag.
Many Of us were not much olderstha
you, John and Harry. There are thou
sands Of graves about the old battle
fields Of the south and along our lines
Of march. where sixteen-year-old boys
were wrapped in their blankets and
laid away to rest. having given their
lives for the many blessings Of our
free. u1ited government Of today.

something better for you to do. There
