Mining in Idaho 1919 Output and Labor Troubles
The 1919 Idaho mining year saw a sharp drop in metal production due to weak markets and labor unrest, though ore resources remain strong. A major strike in August closed most mines for about two months, with Bunker Hill & Sullivan keeping operations near normal. Rail service and tax policy further strained producers, while wage scales and distribution challenges prompted calls for skilled pay distinctions and better labor-management collaboration.
