- W2214438552 abstract "AS early as 1790 Tench Coxe, the noted economist, wrote of the regions of Pennsylvania in his A erican View, as follows: To the time of the Revolution we depended almost entirely upon wood fuel, of which, in the most populous places, we still have a great abundance, and in all interior situations im mense quantities: but the increase of manufactures has occasioned us to turn our attention to coal. Of this useful fossil, Providence has given us very great quantities in our middle and western country. The vicinity of Wyoming, on the Susquehanna, is one bed of coal. . . On the headwaters of [the] Schuylkill and Lehi [Rivers] are some considerable bodies. At the head of the west ern branch of [the] Susquehanna is a most extensive body which stretches over the country south-westerly, so as to be found in the greatest plenty at Pittsburgh. . . It has been lately discovered in the waters of [the] Nescopeck. It is thus evident that before the end of the eighteenth century the existence of large quantities of in Pennsylvania was well known, with the chief areas of deposit already marked. Why then, were another forty years to elapse before this domestic fuel came into common use in the chief centers of population along the Atlantic sea-board ? Two answers suggest themselves: first, that the difficulties in volved in marketing made that product a comparatively ex pensive one; second, that people simply preferred to use wood. Though the cheap transportation of was indeed a very im portant factor in determining its general use, the great problem of the early miners, even after the completion of the so-called anthracite canals was that of opposition to its use. The primary problem faced by the industry was thus not one of transportation, but rather one of convincing potential customers that the stone coal could be used more cheaply and efficiently than wood, and" @default.
