Foley Blk. La Grande Investment Co.
In recent address before the Miners'
Institute at Pittsburg, Mr. Fred C. Kigh
ley said:
.There are tome problems confronting
mining men today that require prompt
and vigorous action or serious consequen
ces will result. There seems to be
tendency of late to observe numerous
holidays holidays that had their origo in
foreign lands and that are of interest to
foreigners alone. On the other hand the
holidays of this country are often not
observed at alL This of itself is a bad
feature and should not be tolerated for a
moment. It is an evidence of disrespect
on the part of these foreigners for the
land that has so generously, but perhaps
unwisely, taken them into its arms. They
may not know this, but they should be
made to realize that the manner in which
they observe these so-called holidays is
aninsult to modern intelligence, and the
losses that through them are entailed upon
their employers are not only wrongful,
but a serious orrense in tne eyes ui un
laws of the land that is so generously
giving them sustenance. .
"No real religion advocates practices
that work an injury to mankind in general,
and the observance of foreign holidays in
the present manner certainly injures the
mining and manufacturing interests, and
upsets, in a degree, the business of the
whole country. . '
"To my personal knowledge, one soft
coal mining firm alone has already lost
several thousand dollars this year by en
forced idleness. In the month of April
the tonage of this firm fell 1 6,000 tons
of coal below the previous month's record
The cause was numerous holiday obser
vances in April, against one in March.
Last year the output from this property
was forced down to a low standard by
the same cause during three different
months. This not only meant a loss of
business, but naturaly increased the cost
of production. Other firms had the same
experience. Men that wanted to work
could not work, because there were not
sufficient men on certain days to warrant
operating. This is not all; the conse
quential losses are considerable, by reason
of the stopping and holding back of critical
work.
"The most serious matter of all is the
fact that after these alleged holidays
many of the men come to work in a
dazed and befuddled condition that has,
in some cases, undoubtedly precipitated
disaster. The emigrants of late are
from lands where holidays exceed in
number the working days and the differ
ent nations have different dates for the
same holidays, making a run of holidays.
thus bringing disaster to production. This
evil must be relentlessly rooted out, or
prosperity will cease ta exist."
