Coal Trade

Background  Established in 1849, the Fort Rupert coal settlement represented a departure in the Hudson’s Bay Company’s mode of colonial wealth accumulation on Vancouver Island. Company officials failed, however, to appreciate basic differences in the new mode of accumulation, including the importance of transportation to capitalist mineral extraction.Analysis  This article accomplishes three things: it retrieves foundational theories of transportation and commodity circulation once popular in communication studies, provides a documentary account of coal mining and the coal trade in the mid-nineteenth-century eastern Pacific, and articulates a theory of capitalist energy consumption.Conclusion and implications  The culminating theory of energy capital positions the extraction and circulation of fuel within Canadian communication studies through a transportation-focused approach to communication.Keywords  Canadian history; Communication theory; Energy; Marxism; TransportationContexte  L’agglomération de Fort Rupert établie en 1849 pour extraire le charbon sur l’Île de Vancouver représenta pour la Compagnie de la Baie d’Hudson une nouvelle sorte de colonisation axée sur l’enrichissement. Les dirigeants de la Compagnie, cependant, n’ont pas reconnu des particularités fondamentales relatives à ce nouveau mode d’accumulation, y compris l’importance de moyens de transport jusqu’au site d’extraction des minerais.Analyse  Cet article vise trois objectifs : il récupère des théories fondatrices, populaires jadis dans le domaine des communications, sur le transport et la circulation des marchandises; il fournit un compte rendu sur l’extraction et le commerce du charbon dans l’Est du Pacifique au milieu du 19ème siècle; et il articule une théorie capitaliste sur la consommation énergétique.Conclusion and implications  La théorie principale sur le capital en énergie positionne l’extraction et la circulation de combustibles au sein des études en communication au Canada en ayant recours à une approche centrée sur le transport.Mots clés  Canadian history; Communication theory; Energy; Marxism; Transportation

Coal Trade

According to the Home Office Statistics of Compensation paid during the year 1938, nearly 40% of the number of cases of compensation in the seven main groups of industries in Great Britain occurred in the mining industry, and 80% of the compensation to workers in the industry is paid by employers who insure their Workmen's Compensation risk with Mutual Indemnity Associations. As these Coal Trade Mutual Indemnity Associations deal with about one-third of the compensation paid in the seven main industrial groups, the experience of the larger associations is capable of useful analysis according to the age of the workman, the cause and effect of the accident or industrial disease, and the degree and duration of the resulting incapacity.

This report presents the results of the excavation of a stone ford laid across the base of a small stream valley near Rough Castle, Falkirk. It was discovered during an opencast coal mining project. Radiocarbon dates and pollen analysis of deposits overlying the ford combine to indicate a date for its construction no later than the early first millennium cal BC. Interpreting this evidence was not straightforward and the report raises significant issues about site formation processes and the interpretation of radiocarbon and pollen evidence. The importance of these issues extends beyond the rarely investigated features such as fords and deserve a larger place in the archaeological literature.
