Note 616 — Chapter IX
Reading edition
The enginemen, boilermen and firemen, colliery mechanics, cokemen, under-managers, deputies, overmen and other officials, colliery clerks and various kinds of surface-workers about the mines have all their own Unions, which have greatly developed of recent years, and are in many districts not very willing to join the county miners’ associations, though they often act in conjunction with these. Their own federations are referred to on p. 550.
