Our belief is that an industry

United Mine Workers testified. ITO

Denies Operators Claim.
Mr.. Brophy took issue with T. H.
Atkins, Pennsylvania operator, who
testified before the committee as to
wages.
Approximately $1,000 miners in
central Pennsylvania last year earned
$l4.61 week or 81 day for the year,
because there was hardly two days of

The amount referred to above as

: OF the eighty-six counties of the

The state treasury than they paid in.
They paid state taxes amounting to
S2,503, $3.50 and received directly
1880, 0,832.33. The other forty two
counties paid more than they received

the state tax is apart from those
levied for local purposes.
:, Tax rate for state purposes this

the statutory inflictions removed

history 1t is but small fraction of
the total tax paid by the tax payers
