seeds Of liberty and Christian justice We have thought
because they belong of the ancient trades in

high daily wages paid to miners, the days work %
that in West Virginia last year miners earned 5000

years income. And in earning that pitance $500 were
killed and 10000 injuredI .t
The miners produce coal at the highest cost e2e1 q
