To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Possessing unlimited quantities of coal as a creative power, they offer a most attractive field for investment and enterprise of every character.
By the use of our coal we were enabled in 1902 tO' produce pig iron valued at $126,000,000, or almost 50 per cent, of the total production ot the United States; coke to the value of $56,700,000; rolled iron and steel to the value of $360,338,972.
It is interesting to note that the value of the output of coal in Penn- sylvania for 1903 exceeded greatly... the total value of all the copper, gold and silver mined in the United States during that period. The copper output amounted to $88,334,770; gold $74,525,340, and silver $30,520,688, or a. total of $193,380,798, while the total output of coal was valued at the mines at almost $300,000,000. At the seaboard the value was about $600,000,000.
The control of our coal lands and various systems of railways, par- ticularly in the anthracite region, is rapidly becoming centralized. In 1865 the anthracite coal lands were possessed by individuals, but in 1867 the railways began to acquire them and have steadily continued the ac- quisition until this vast industry is now under their domination.
