Robbins declines Pennsylvania governor bid after coal conference stance
Indianapolis report says F. L. Robbins, president of the Ittaburg Coal Company, rejected a Republican run for Pennsylvania governor after switching from the stand-out operators to support John Mitchell and readopting the 1903 coal wage scale. Robbins, a prolific operator with vast holdings, faced deposition by the Indiana conference but moved to the miners’ side, rallying 260,000 miners and unions to his position. He remains a potential US Senate candidate with miners backing him despite the political risks.
