Book excerpt: Excerpt from Introduction to a History of Ironmaking and Coal Mining in Pennsylvania: Contributed to the Final Report of the Pennsylvania Board of Centennial Managers That there may be no misunderstanding. I wish distinctly to impress upon the mind of the reader the fact that I have not attempted to write a complete history of ironmaking and coal mining in Pennsylvania, but have assumed only to write such an introduction to their history as will contain a record of the principal events which mark the beginning of these two great industries of our State, and mark, also, the leading events in their subsequent development. Beginning with their beginning, I end with the progress they had made down to 1876, but only glance at the great gap between. Otherwise stated, the scope of the following pages embraces a statement of the first enterprises in iron making and coal mining in Pennsylvania, a reference to significant periods of their development, and a summary of ultimate results. Greater amplitude and detail could only have been possible by completely changing the plan upon which the two essays had been projected. I have undertaken to preserve only that part of the history of our iron and coal industries that is of most value and is in most danger of being lost. To those who would have been gratified to see in this volume a description of existing ironworks in Pennsylvania, it is proper that we should say that the American Iron and Steel Association published in 1876 a complete list of all such enterprises in the United States, which list is now being revised for publication in the spring of the present year.

This book was released on 2018-05 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Undeveloped Mineral Resources of Pennsylvania Tax rates, carried over from other days when the mineral industries were prosperous, are a great handicap to those same industries today when they are struggling to keep alive. To reduce the tax rate will cripple the counties in their efforts to meet the service demands of their citizens. The answer appears to be a severance tax, that is, a straight tax on the gross value of the several minerals as they are removed from the mine, quarry, or well. Such a tax is levied in proportion to the mineral removed, at a time. When the sale of that mineral makes the Operator best able to pay the tax. Strictly such' a tax is in the nature of a deferred land tax, and may be computed on that basis. It avoids all the uncertainty as to the quality, quantity, etc. Of a mineral in the ground. If the tax is based on the gross receipts from the sale of the mineral, it automatically adjusts itself to the changing values of the minerals taxed, and taxes all minerals equally.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mineralogy of Pennsylvania One of the most active collectors during this period was William Sampson Vaux, vice-president of the Academy of Natural Sciences, whose collection, now the chief mineral exhibit in the Academy, is one of the most magnificent in America. It is not unlikely that he acquired his interest in minerals through his uncle, Joseph Sampson (1767 - 1826) who made perhaps the earliest collection in America, which was later given to Haverford College.

It has been the aim of the author to give reliable information free from minute details and technicalities. That information has been, for the most part, gathered through personal experience in_ithe mines. Literature of this special subject is very meagre, and the author is unable to acknowledge any real indebtedness to more than half a dozen volumes. First among these is the valuable treatise on Coal Mining, by H. M. Chance of the Pennsylvania Geological Survey. Other volumes from which the author has derived considerable information are the State geological reports of Pennsylvania, the mine in.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Blind Brother: A Story of the Pennsylvania Coal Mines Up in the Lackawanna region a strike had been in progress for nearly two weeks. Efforts had been made by the strikers to persuade the miners down the valley to join them, but at first without success. Then a committee of one hundred came down to appeal and to intimidate. In squads of ten or more they visited the mines in the region, and, in the course of their journeyings, had come to the Dryden Slope. They had induced the miners to go out at all the workings they had thus far entered, and were no less successful here. It required persuasion, sometimes threats, sometimes, indeed, even blows, for the miners in Dryden Slope had no cause of complaint against their employers; they earned good wages, and were content.
