Story of Coal Today Shrinking Demand and Turmoil

The article traces the 1808 Po tsville coal seller George Shoemaker to today’s Eastern Kentucky coal strike. It contrasts price declines from 4.50 to 3.50 per ton, wage rises from 15.60 to 24.25, and widespread conflict, blaming market underuse and industry structure, with miners like F. F. Schulte defending wage needs and efficiency. It notes trucking costs, royalties, depreciation, and the limited alternative incomes of coal towns, underscoring a crisis with few clear options.
