A HABIT AT THE MINE. WORKERS CALL FOR HIGHER PAY. OWNER SAYS MINE UNPROFITABLE. It appears from dispatches that workers at the coal mine in the town of Annesburg are asking for twenty cents on the ton over the cost of mining it. Workers say decent wages should be paid to the men who toil to mine the coal.

Controversial mine owner Archibald Jameson has long argued that the mine is easily worked as there are immense stores of clear coal at very shallow depths. he says based on national market conditions he and other mine owners int he country have made almost nothing in profit for four years, in spite of substantial outlays. A common gripe of the workers is that conditions of the Annesburg mine are exceedingly dangerous and that Jameson is a carpetbagger who moved to the area and has long been exploiting the land and people. Jameson has stated repeatedly that he is one of the largest, most generous employers in the area and that workers' organizations hvae always been responsible for their own safety measures.
