Crailimlly the tin n ls will be reduced and eliminated and the coal industry will become t'lah's ilomi Mi nt enterprise.

At the siime time it will keep money tit home and bring In new capital, and furnish u livelihood directly and indirectly for a considerable of the stale's population. Hub's iron and coal deposits form lli! base of an endowment in natural resources that will eveu- luully make the slate the nation's treasure house. the modern age rests on a struc ture of iron and steel and these lu turn rest on a triangular base. At one corner of the base are ledj of coking coal; at the other corner are dcosIls or Iron ore and the apex is the blast furnace.

Efforts are also being made to have established here a large central branch of the United Stutes Itureau of Mines.
